I have a small sample application I use for testing. This uses a saved token and key. The application works fine. I am able to get timelines, post status updates, etc.
When moving this application to another system I now get the "invalid / used nonce" on calls to the twitter api from this application when using it on the new system. I have three systems I have tried, two work and one does not. The error "invalid /used nonce" does not tell me what is wrong. All the systems have the same version of java and are running the exact same application code. Below is some trace information. Does anyone see something wrong with my signature in the failing system vs the working systems.
