Re: Problems with updating profile image
For any one interested, here is a completed function.
public static void UploadProfileImage(byte[] photo, string username,
string pwd)
{
//photo is just a byte array of the image data
//A recent change to Twitter's api requires this line to
be included for .NET clients because
//of how the HttpWebRequest object formats the header. I
had to set this in the new for my class, it
//seemed to be too late if I set it in this function.
You'll get a 417 error without setting this.
// System.Net.ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue =
false;
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)
HttpWebRequest.Create(@"http://twitter.com/account/
update_profile_image.xml");
request.PreAuthenticate = true;
request.AllowWriteStreamBuffering = true;
string boundary = System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username,
pwd);
request.ContentType = string.Format("multipart/form-data;
boundary={0}", boundary);
request.Method = "POST";
// Build Contents for Post
string header = "--" + boundary;
string footer = "--" + boundary + "--";
StringBuilder contents = new StringBuilder();
// Image
contents.AppendLine(header);
contents.AppendLine(string.Format("Content-Disposition:
form-data); name=\"image\"); filename=\"{0}\"",
"twitterProfilePhoto.jpg"));
contents.AppendLine("Content-Type: image/jpeg");
contents.AppendLine();
contents.AppendLine(System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding
("iso-8859-1").GetString(photo));
// Footer
contents.AppendLine(footer);
// Data that is sent with the post
byte[] bytes = Encoding.GetEncoding("iso-8859-1").GetBytes
(contents.ToString());
request.ContentLength = bytes.Length;
using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
requestStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
requestStream.Flush();

Re: Problems with updating profile image
Thanks Lien. I was able to get this figured out. It was a problem with the way I was encoding the image data. I needed to be using iso-8859-1.

Re: Problems with updating profile image
Thanks Lien, I am trying to get this done using c#.NET and I think I am getting closer. What is happening with my request is it is getting truncated only a few characters in to the actual image data so I don't have a footer boundary. The post completes successfully, but the image that gets uploaded to the server isn't formatted correctly. Here is the full request body - POST /account/update_profile_image.xml HTTP/1.1 Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=125e2d3d-97d3-44fc-8267-9a8ef2d79644 Authorization: Basic Host: twitter.com Content-Length: 201010 Expect: 100-continue --125e2d3d-97d3-44fc-8267-9a8ef2d79644 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image"; filename="seantest.jpg" Content-Type: image/jpeg ÿØÿà Any ideas what could be causing the image data to be truncated?

Re: Problems with updating profile image
Would you mind posting a sample of your correctly formatted request here? I am running windows and haven't been able to get curl up and running yet.

Re: Problems with updating profile image
Thanks Alex. I used curl to see what the request should look like and then coded up my request accordingly. It's working for me now.

Re: Problems with updating profile image
The test we use for this method is to use curl: curl -F '[EMAIL PROTECTED]/to/test/image.jpg' -u USERNAME:PASSWORD http://twitter.com/account/update_profile_image.xml If you use an HTTP proxy, you can see it generating the appropriate request and response.

Problems with updating profile image
Hello, I've been trying to update my profile image using the account method update_profile_image. However, the server keeps returning the error "There was a problem with your picture. Probably too big." The photo I am trying to upload is a jpg less than 700 kilobytes in size. Below is the request body and request response. Request body: POST /account/update_profile_image.xml HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1 Host: twitter.com Content-Length: 71440 Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=tUGDGHg6- mbUEjVXYFhFWeb_NFmBUxiXOK --tUGDGHg6-mbUEjVXYFhFWeb_NFmBUxiXOK Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Sunset.jpg"; filename="Sunset.jpg" Content-Type: application/octet-stream; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary --tUGDGHg6-mbUEjVXYFhFWeb_NFmBUxiXOK-- Response body: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden Date: Sat, 06 Dec 2008 07:59:53 GMT Server: hi Last-Modified: Sat, 06 Dec 2008 07:59:53 GMT Status: 403 Forbidden Pragma: no-cache Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate, pre-check=0, post- check=0 Content-Type: application/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 183 Expires: Tue, 31 Mar 1981 05:00:00 GMT Set-Cookie: _twitter_sess=BAh7BzoHaWQiJWRhOWNmNjI1MGM5MjRmYWIwOGEzOGQwNTQyYzNmZTNjIgpm %250AbGFzaElDOidBY3Rpb25Db250cm9sbGVyOjpGbGFzaDo6Rmxhc2hIYXNoewAG %250AOgpAdXNlZHsA--d9fe4dcadf2064553d3371c9fe767ff009f20c21; domain=.twitter.com; path=/ Vary: Accept-Encoding Connection: close /account/update_profile_image.xml There was a problem with your picture.
