This was exactly the problem.

And this fixed it.

Thank you so much!  As a casual developer, this has been tying me up for a
couple of weeks.  I'd been working from other external examples that were
much less clear and I hadn't yet dug into the rails app that ships with
the ruby-openid gem to find out how it works.

Is the rails openid-login generator that ships with 2.0.3 still
maintained?   It generates code that feeds the raw params hash directly to
consumer.complete().  It also assumes that the return value from
consumer.begin() will have a #status property, which looks to be a
holdover from ruby-openid 1.x.x when begin() returned an OpenIDStatus
object instead of a CheckIDRequest.  Perhaps it hasn't been updated for
ruby-openid 2.x.x? 
 
Thanks again!
