  A response to Maggie's
  http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/new-multiple-openid-user-signin-support-7377
  
  When I use Google credentials for the first time in the context of log in to Diigo,
  
  > Your OpenID identity has been verified
  
  - to that point, apparently OK.
  
  Bug: when I try to associate my Google ID with my Diigo ID:
  
  
  
  - Forbidden.
  
  I wondered whether it was somehow related to http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/first-openid-login-to-diigo-always-requires-a-second-openid-login-7337 but all attempts to associate are
  
  > Forbidden
  
  no matter how many times I log in using Google ID.
  
  ----
  
  Side note: consistent use of expressions "ID" and "account". FWIW in this context I should tend towards "identity".
  
  Best regards
  Graham

  Workaround

  
  
  1. immediately after the successful sign in to Diigo using a Google ID
  
  2. do not attempt to associate!
  
  3. copy to clipboard your Google OpenID
  
  4. sign out from Diigo
  
  5. use your Diigo ID (or an OpenID _other_ than Google's) to sign in to Diigo
  
  6. https://secure.diigo.com/setting
  
  7. at the foot of the page, add your Google OpenID
  
  8. sign out from Diigo
  
  9. use any OpenID to sign in to Diigo; Google's has become acceptable.

  Graham,
  I can't reproduce the bug with my google account. Could you try it again? We will monitor the log.

  ====> We will change Google account to Google ID soon.

  1. Safari 3.1.2 (5525.20.1), Mac OS X 10.5.5, on University of Sussex campus AFAIK with transparent caching proxy
  
  2. https://secure.diigo.com/setting
  
  3. removed my Google OpenID from the list of associations
  
  4. signed out from Diigo
  
  5. signed in using Google OpenID
  
  6. associated the two IDs - success :)
  
  ----
  
  When I reported, earlier, the bug was consistent - I tried at least twice, maybe three times. I wonder whether any of the following factors were relevant at that time:
  
  * ISP UK Online maybe with transparent caching proxy and probably using OpenDNS
  * NAT x2 (ISP -> ADSL -> wired router -> wireless router -> probably WPA -> MacBook Pro
  * Diigo 3.1.6.5
  * Firefox 3.0.3

  Workaround

  
  
  Use Safari 3.1.2 (5525.20.1)
  
  Postscript: added the missing step 11, which I had performed but forgot to record
