Hi Peter, Curious if the oauth_verifier="REGEX_FAILED" in your authorization header here is the actual value you sent or some kind of post-obfuscation you've made? If it's the actual value you sent, I'd take a look at the execution path that might cause that. @episod -

I'm seeing intermittent issues as well on the /oauth/access_token endpoint. Have you ever gotten to the bottom of this or is it just best to handle the error and retry? Below is a capture of my HTTP requests: POST /oauth/access_token HTTP/1.1 Authorization: OAuth oauth_signature="Thb80hXw6LKji

I don't have the timestamp of a request that I can get an exact measurement from, but it is < 30 seconds. Jonathon On May 18, 9:57 am, Taylor Singletary wrote: > Jonathon, > > When you get that error in the access token step, how much time has passed > since when the request token was issued be

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

Jonathon, When you get that error in the access token step, how much time has passed since when the request token was issued before attempting to be exchanged for an access token? Taylor Singletary Developer Advocate, Twitter http://twitter.com/episod On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 6:00 PM, Jonathon H

[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

I too am experiencing this issue with OAuth calls. At random times / oauth/access_token results in a response similar to the following: Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 21:27:26 GMT Server: hi Status: 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Twitter API" X-Transaction: 1274131646-92315-8359 Last-Modi

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

A packet trace isn't going to tell us anything that we don't already know. The API is occasionally underwater between about 13:30 and 18:30 UTC on weekdays and we're working on fixing this. On Tue, May 11, 2010 at 7:51 AM, Dewald Pretorius wrote: > Glen, > > My system makes thousands of outgoin

[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

Glen, My system makes thousands of outgoing calls per minute, and a lot of them are going to non-Twitter destinations. Even if it wouldn't mess with my app, I'm not sending a TCP dump/log anywhere. There's nothing inappropriate in there, but calls, destinations, and volume of calls that my system

Hi Dewald, We have some known performance issues right now as noted in this thread: http://bit.ly/ddp9Mr It's surprising that you're getting 401s, but it might be a particular way an exasperated resource is responding to requests. We'll look into that. Taylor Singletary Developer Advocate, Twitt

[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

As well (I know it has been discussed elsewhere), I am consistently seeing API response times in excess of 3 seconds per call. It is actually rare to see one that takes less than 2 seconds. This is on connections from Dallas. But, even using twitter.com in the web browser from Canada is also painfu

[twitter-dev] Re: Intermittent 401 Errors

In fact, the API seems to be really borked at the moment. I've been running more tests on friends_timeline.json, and the following happens: 1) Sometimes the connection is refused. 2) Sometimes I get a 200 OK with an empty JSON array, and seconds later with the very next call on the same Twitter a
