the code is what I posted above... My goal is a simple twitterbot that tweets hourly a string I tell it to tweet. Worked fine in the userid/password days, now it doesn't anymore thanks to oauth. I'm not trying to have other users use the app in their name (which is what oauth is for), i just want a simple api call to tweet to 'my own account'. All this difficult s...@t to make that work isn't really my cup of tea.... If you can help me make this work, thanks a lot: so there's one script that creates the string and puts the keys in the environment. Here's the current code of the script that uses that info to tweet: ---------start-------------- #!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Twitter; $wikiurl = $ENV{iurl}; $wikitxt = $ENV{itxt}; $wikckey = $ENV{ckey}; $wikcsec = $ENV{csec}; $wikatok = $ENV{atok}; $wikasec = $ENV{asec}; #debugging: print "keys are\n"; print "$ckey\n"; print "$csec\n"; print "$atok\n"; print "$asec\n"; my $client = Net::Twitter->new( traits => ['OAuth', 'API::REST'], consumer_key => $ckey, consumer_secret => $csec, access_token => $atok, access_secret => $asec, ); binmode STDOUT, ":utf8"; $tweet = $iurl." ".$itxt; #debugging: print "$tweet\n"; my $res = $client->update({ status => $tweet }); print "Tweeted: http://twitter.com/$res->{user}{screen_name}/status/$res->{id}\n"; ---------end----------- still get 'Could not authenticate you.' I don't get it. The keys are good as far as I can see. (i don't make typo's with copy paste...) Interestingly, it doesn't print the last line either... what am I doing wrong?
