Hello, It occurs from time to time that the rest api servers don't deliver responses, and I'm not complaining about that.
However, why would the server answer with a 500 Http status code, a content type of application/json and the content being the html error page. E.g., GET /1/statuses/friends.json?cursor=1346292258256227567&user_id=33307124 HTTP/1.1 Accept-Encoding: identity Host: api.twitter.com Connection: close User-Agent: Python-urllib/2.6 HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2010 01:56:02 GMT Server: hi Status: 500 Internal Server Error X-Transaction: 1284170160-87257-46051 X-RateLimit-Limit: 20000 Last-Modified: Sat, 11 Sep 2010 01:56:00 GMT X-RateLimit-Remaining: 11250 Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 4659 Pragma: no-cache ....
