Dear all, I have a problem using the Twitter-API with my own OAuth library. My own efforts to solve this problem led to nothing :-/.
I successfully obtained an oauth_token and an oauth_token_secret via api-call. I was also possible to send signed GET requests (without parameters) and i was able to access protected statuses ( i.e. http://twitter.com/statuses/show/<id>.xml ). But I failed to send POST requests with additional api-parameters. My request looks like: ------------------------------- POST /statuses/update.xml HTTP/1.1 Authorization: OAuth realm="http://twitter.com/statuses/ update.xml",oauth_consumer_key="faVMWtJvXP0IB3wsBaJTQ",oauth_nonce="3e3b26909fa40c2caac60614402a2214",oauth_signature_method="HMAC- SHA1",oauth_timestamp="1260449888",oauth_token="38161975-15hllTYOlXkOE4jM3wkEzfNkc1qJ0dFxpiXrwGXcB",oauth_version="1.0",oauth_signature="%2F3772JshuQJKDclbDyytiOZ5E3c %3D" Host: twitter.com Content-Length: 16 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Content-ID: <> Date: Thu, 10 Dec 09 13:58:08 +0100 status=freutsich ------------------------------- The signature was constructed from the following signature-base- string: POST&http%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fstatuses %2Fupdate.xml&oauth_consumer_key%3DfaVMWtJvXP0IB3wsBaJTQ%26oauth_nonce %3D3e3b26909fa40c2caac60614402a2214%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC- SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%3D1260449888%26oauth_token %3D38161975-15hllTYOlXkOE4jM3wkEzfNkc1qJ0dFxpiXrwGXcB %26oauth_token_secret%3DREPLACEDREPLACEDREPLACED%26oauth_version %3D1.0%26status%3Dfreutsich I have no idea what i did wrong. I have a suspicion that my failure had something to do with the additional parameter (status=) and the way I add this parameter to the signature-base string ... Best regards Julius
