This is getting off-topic for this list, but in brief, this refers to your
cryptographic library which is being used to handle the encryption and
decryption to Twitter's SSL server. zlib refers to the specific compression
library your system likely uses (and you will note that this is referenced
in the error above). Many crypto libraries use zlib. You should make sure
that your cryptographic software, such as NSS or OpenSSL, passes all of its
built-in self-tests such as by running 'make test' in the source directory
for your crypto distro. If it doesn't work, SSL through libcurl won't either.

If you're still not sure what this is, you probably should be referring to
the libcurl documentation for more. libcurl can use either NSS or OpenSSL.

This suggests a problem in your crypto library, or less likely zlib.

Re: [twitter-dev] Problem - SSL CA cert

[Georgooty varghese]

Dear Twitter,

I have checked. But its not working.

I tried the curl-ca-bundle.crt file and also tried ca-certificates.crt files
that comes with Ubuntu-10.04

In both cases I am getting the following error .



“Info: error:140D108E:SSL routines:TLS1_CHANGE_CIPHER_STATE:compression
library error”



I have attached the log file with this mail



Command I used

curl --capath /etc/ssl/certs/ --cacert
/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt  --trace
/etc/error.txt https://api.twitter.com



curl --capath /etc/ssl/certs/ --cacert  /etc/ssl/certs/
curl-ca-bundle.crt --trace
/etc/error.txt https://api.twitter.com

Anybody please help meI am waiting for your reply.


Regards,

George

[twitter-dev] Running multiple streaming client on the same machine

[Idoshilon]

I have a question about the streaming API.
We got one server where we run two streaming API clients , each one
follow different account list and have a separate processing for the
incoming tweets.
Is there any limitation of running these two clients on the same
machine ? can it cause any issues with the rate limit ? (right now
we're under the shadow access control).

For what it's worth, these Search API issues should be fixed now.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: randomly 401 error

[Matt Harris]

Hi Alvin,

I notice in your request that you are sending a Basic Authentication header
in addition to the OAuth. Specifically the line:
Authorization: Basic 

When using OAuth this is not required and will be confusing the request.
Specifically you are sending OAuth in the request but telling the API to
authorise using Basic Auth. What you should do is either drop the
Authorization header completley, or move the OAuth parameters into the
Authorization header.

A possible reason why some of your requests are working and others are
failing is that some methods do not require authentication. In those cases
the failing authentication details you are sending are being ignored and the
request is most likely running unauthenticated.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: oAuth reporting a status update error when none exists

[Matt Harris]

Hi,

So the 403 duplicate status means the message you are sending is the same as
the last message in the users timeline.
When you say the post is posting correctly, how are you validating that this
has happened?

Also, can you show an example request that you are making, for example:

http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json
POST: status=my text

Values from a real request would be helpful to identify what could be
causing us to think the update is a duplicate.

Hey Ed,

Yes, the local trends supports a woeid of 1 for 'the world'.

The other available woeid's can be found by querying:
https://api.twitter.com/1/trends/available.json

[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth reporting a status update error when none exists

[EastSideDev]

I am not doing any duplicates. I tested the app on a brand new Twitter
account, and did only a single status update. The update was actually
done, but I am still receiving the error message. I implemented
temporary fix (ignore the error code), but that's an ugly solution.

I am afraid Twitter has added this error - don't allow any duplicate
tweet at least from Twitter API. I have to add random text to bypass
this 403 error.

Re: [twitter-dev] Differences between "trends" and "trends/current"??

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

Thanks!! I'm also looking at the local trends API - there seems to be  
a world-wide endpoint there (WOEID=1) and the documentation there  
indicates that there's a caching frequency of five minutes. So that's  
probably what I'll go with.

[twitter-dev] Twitter as a cell phone feature

[hinda]

Hello

For my technology and society class, I'm required to make up a
technology/invention that does not exist. so i came up with a cell
phone application that scans barcodes of items in stores and provides
costumers with full information. I also want to add twitter as a
feature, so costumers can share the information. Can someone please
tell me the steps to how to build a twitter feature into this
application?
Thank you very much.

[twitter-dev] Re: Best scalable method to process mentions

[Serdar]

So if I use User Streams, my app doesn't have to keep track of which
mentions have not been proceeded yet *that is older than the last
recieved mention*, because it returns all available mentions without a
max limit in a single query?

All I need is to get tweets that mention @appName. I also do not want
to ask for

My app rests here by the way: http://guzelanket.com/puanla/
(unfortunately no English version for now)

Thanks.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Best scalable method to process mentions

[John Kalucki]

You should use Site Streams to gather mentions for a large number of users,
or User Streams to gather for a single user. Otherwise you will run into API
rate limits and other issues.

I, too, am interested. It would also be nice to get a total count of
favorites included in the response. That is, this user has 63
favorites. As it stands, you have to iteratively page until you get to
a page with count less than 20.

[twitter-dev] Local searches on Search API not working

[Aaron Rankin]

I'm consistently getting no results for a variety of Search API
queries using the geocode parameter. For example:

http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=beer&rpp=100&page=1&geocode=41.938682556152344,-87.6544189453125,100mi&result_type=recent

http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=tuesday&rpp=100&page=1&geocode=41.938682556152344,-87.6544189453125,100mi&result_type=recent


This is with 100 miles of Chicago. We all know that someone who's
geocoded will tweet about either beer or tuesday, near Chicago
(especially the former). I've tried other locations as well.

[twitter-dev] Re: language and geocode problem

[Colin Surprenant]

Currently it looks like any geo based search queries are returning
zero result.
ex, on New York: 
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?geocode=40.739454,-73.883743,75km

The question is: what is the expected timeframe for a fix on this?
hours, days, weeks?
They only say "Engineering working on a fix". See

This came up in March, see:

[twitter-dev] Search links that have been used on Twitter (ASP Classic)

[Mauricio Gutierrez Capel]

Good evening friends,

I've looked in several places and have not found the best way to show on my
site (which is to shorten URLs) the links that users are Twittering, or
Re-Tweeting.
For example on the page that the user picks up the details of the link (
http://www.vaza.me/detalhes.asp) I would like to show how the RT user link
has been used on Twitter (Twitter for example how a certain user twitter was
retweet), and take photos of the user, the user name and so on.
I use on my site to ASP Classic.

Could someone help me?
thanks

Re: [twitter-dev] language and geocode problem

Yes. Everyone has noticed. They say they are working on it. The search
API is code they don't seem too happy about, since it is acquired from
Summize, but this time they are finally going to have to fix it.

[twitter-dev] Totally Stuck - Getting "Incorrect signature" error trying to update status using OAuth

[Chris Koenig]

Hi,

I'm trying to add (what I thought would be) a simple feature to a game
I developed - allow the users to post their scores to twitter. Since
my app is a game for the webOS platform, I felt xauth was the best way
to implement this. I already got xauth approval from Twitter. I also
have been able to request access tokens without any trouble.

However, when it comes down to using the oauth token and oauth secret,
I am totally 100% stuck.
I've spent a few days on this, and I've tried changing small things,
changing it back, it's driving me crazy, and no matter what I do I
always get this response:

failed to post to twitter: {"request":"\/1\/statuses\/
update.json","error":"Incorrect signature"}

Here is my code for constructing the and signing base string:
 var updateUrl = "http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json";;
 var timestamp = Math.floor( (new Date(dt.toUTCString() )).getTime()/
1000);
 var update_data=
  'oauth_consumer_key=' +
encodeURIComponent(constants.consumerKey) +
   '&oauth_nonce=' + encodeURIComponent(nonce) +
   '&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1' +
   '&oauth_timestamp=' + timestamp +
'&oauth_token='+encodeURIComponent(o_auth_token) +
'&oauth_version=1.0' +
'&status='+encodeURIComponent("wow");
 var base_string = "POST&" + encodeURIComponent(updateUrl)
+ "&" + encodeURIComponent(update_data);
 var oauth_signature =
b64_hmac_sha1(constants.consumerSecret+"&"+o_auth_secret,
base_string);

o_auth_token and o_auth_secret are set prior to this block of code by
parsing the response from the access token url call.

And here is my code for building the authorization header:
var auth_header = 'OAuth
realm="",oauth_consumer_key="'+constants.consumerKey +
   '",oauth_nonce="'+nonce
+'",oauth_signature="'+oauth_signature+
   '",oauth_signature_method="HMAC-
SHA1",oauth_timestamp="'+ timestamp +
   '",oauth_token="'+o_auth_token
+'",oauth_version="1.0"';

I've checked that my signature message matches when plugging in
applicable values using this tool:
http://oauth.googlecode.com/svn/code/javascript/example/signature.html

So it is NOT an issue with signing...

And here is an output base string I get before signing:
POST&http%3A%2F%2Fapi.twitter.com%
2F1%2Fstatuses%2Fupdate.json&oauth_consumer_key
%3DJxPeA0aTWPfkULuWu80dyA%26oauth
_nonce%3DIpx2fKgwUXlQ18d%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-
SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%
3D1291099840%26oauth_token%3D186684223-
buwCSVt0NJQ7BDUo0q5OZo4jWjgSCDhPT2IBEGRF%
26oauth_version%3D1.0%26status%3Dwow

and here is the authorization header i sent:
OAuth
realm="",oauth_consumer_key="JxPeA0aTWPfkULuWu80dyA",oauth_nonce="Ipx2fKgwUXlQ18d",oauth_signature="OzJHTccP
%2FNurB5I1MrP2CUkGAyQ%3D",oauth_signature_method="HMAC-
SHA1",oauth_timestamp="1291099840",oauth_token="186684223-
buwCSVt0NJQ7BDUo0q5OZo4jWjgSCDhPT2IBEGRF",oauth_version="1.0"

Some things I'm not sure of:
1. Is that first "realm="" " thing needed in the auth header?
2. If I generate unix time using the local time zone, will that cause
an incorrect signature since it would be say pacific time not UTC
time? (seems to work ok to get the the access tokens though...)
3. Are spaces correct after each comma in the auth header, or not, or
does it matter?
4. Does the order matter in the auth header?

Thanks a lot for all the help, I'm beat and giving up on this for the
evening.

[twitter-dev] Re: randomly 401 error

[Alvin Wang]

Hello,

I follow the lexicographical order but still get incorrect signature.

http://9.share.photo.xuite.net/u9011022/19d31e2/4424859/171241799_x.jpg

Since the frequency is randomly, the algorithm should be ok when
success.

[twitter-dev] Re: Best scalable method to process mentions

[Serdar]

I think I could not make myself clear!

My app already processes new tweets in a scheduled manner, and stores
the results in a database accordingly (using this API method:
http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/statuses/mentions).

I  don't get why would I use stream API and how it would help?

Hi Rajinder,

We would really like to offer access to the historical timeline but our
infrastructure doesn't allow access to anymore than 3200 right now. The
Tweets are safe and have not been deleted or lost, they are just not
available. We also don't have a timeline for access to historical tweets
right now.

In answer to your second question, when there are no more statuses
available we'll return an HTTP 200 with an empty timeline. For example:

JSON:

Hi Matt,

thanks, that is a better solution than what I have been using.
Questions, am I limited up to only 3200 statuses? is it possible to go
beyond this limit and get the entire statues for a user?

When there are no more status request (empty set), what http error
code can I expect. Likewise if 3200 status is a hard limit what http
error will I get when this limit is hit?

Finally if I have exceeded my rate limit what is the http code returned?

Kind Regards,
Rajinder Yadav
