Sign in problem using Google

I have installed Askbot in a virtual environment using PIP following the docs on website. After that I used the startforum command for one-time setup and got to this step:

Once the fresh copy of Askbot appears in your browser, create a new account at the site.

Now I'm stuck.

I tried to log into local Askbot at http://127.0.0.1:8000/account/signin/ using my Google account (clicking on Google icon) but the sign in process doesn't seem to work for me. At the top of the page I get this message:

OpenID https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id is invalid.

Considering that the signin on askbot.org using Google works without any issue I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

Anyone willing to help?

P.S. Not sure this is relevant, I'm behind the company NTLM proxy.
