[twitter-dev] Some twitterapi updates unavailable

2010-08-09 Thread Mark Krieger
I tried to 'favorite' an update by twitterapi over the weekend in
twitter, nothing happened, so I tried to read that update in my own
application -- and I then tried to read a few other updates from
twitterapi. I get back a statuses list in home timeline, then I try to
read more information about the updates in question, and I always get
an error. I think twitter must also get an error, since those updates
seem to be unavailable there too. Here is what I see in my debug
output for one of these updates, any ideas?

{request:/1/statuses/show/20499308096.json,error:No status
found with that ID.}

I get the ID from the updates listed in a getstatusesHometimeline. I
would suspect my application, but it does this for everything else
fine, and only a subset of updates/statuses from twitterapi seem to be
failing, and twitter itself is failing to allow a favorite (for
instance) on these. Are these just 'lost' statuses/updates which I
should not worry about?

thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

We're looking into this and are not quite sure what's going on with these
particular statuses. If you come across any other status ids that can't be
fetched via statuses/show, cannot be favorited, or retweeted (all three
actions fail with these particular tweets), please let us know the status id
so we're aware.

Thanks,
Taylor
