[OpenID] Trust + Security @ OpenID

I made myself a blogspot at http://homepw.blogspot.com/ <http://homepw.blogspot.com/>
I added the text "<link rel="openid.server" href="http://www.jkg.in/openid/" />" to the head element of my site's template.
I accessed http://openid.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page <http://openid.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page> trying to sign-in.
At the prompt "Enter your OpenID identifier to log in:" I enter http://homepw.blogspot.com/ <http://homepw.blogspot.com/>
This eventually causes a page to show the trapped exception indicated by the wiki's openid-consumer protocol engine :-
"Fatal error: Call to a member function addToDatabase() on a non-object in /var/lib/mediawiki1.7/extensions/OpenID/Consumer.php on line 495"
The good thing about this trial was that the http trace indicated the expected protocol flow, the part visible to a browser. By logic, wiki evidently succeeded to do name discovery from http://homepw.blogspot.com/ <http://homepw.blogspot.com/> . Evidence shows the browser got redirect to http://www.jkg.in <http://www.jkg.in> , which redirected browser back to wiki consumer login, which got upset, delivering an exception report.
Ok. this was very good for a first trial, even if it didnt quite work.
Thanks.
