DotNetOpenAuth Failing to work on Live Server - asp.net

Question

I worked on a sample application integrating OpenID into ASP.NET Web Forms. It works fine when hosted locally on my machine. However, when I uploaded the application to a live server, it started giving "Login Failed".
You can try a sample here: http://samples.bhaidar.net/openidsso
Any ideas?
Here is the source code that fails to process the OpenID response:
private void HandleOpenIdProviderResponse()
{
// Define a new instance of OpenIdRelyingParty class
using (var openid = new OpenIdRelyingParty())
{
// Get authentication response from OpenId Provider Create IAuthenticationResponse instance to be used
// to retreive the response from OP
var response = openid.GetResponse();
// No authentication request was sent
if (response == null) return;
switch (response.Status)
{
// If user was authenticated
case AuthenticationStatus.Authenticated:
// This is where you would look for any OpenID extension responses included
// in the authentication assertion.
var fetchResponse = response.GetExtension<FetchResponse>();
// Store the "Queried Fields"
Session["FetchResponse"] = fetchResponse;
// Use FormsAuthentication to tell ASP.NET that the user is now logged in,
// with the OpenID Claimed Identifier as their username.
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(response.ClaimedIdentifier, false);
break;
// User has cancelled the OpenID Dance
case AuthenticationStatus.Canceled:
this.loginCanceledLabel.Visible = true;
break;
// Authentication failed
case AuthenticationStatus.Failed:
this.loginFailedLabel.Visible = true;
break;
}
}

Answer 1

As Andrew suggested, check the exception. In my case, my production server's time & date were off and it wouldn't authenticate because the ticket expired.

Answer 2

Turn on logging on your live server and inspect them for additional diagnostics. It's most likely a firewall or permissions problem on your server that prevents outbound HTTP requests.
You may also find it useful to look at the IAuthenticationResponse.Exception property when an authentication fails for clues.
