[twitter-dev] Ignoring OAuth application authorization page once causes following pages not be able to load up

2009-10-07 Thread Panu Tangchalermkul

I have tested this on 2 Twitter OAuth demo site,

http://twitteroauth.appspot.com/
http://fourmargins.com/labs/twitter_oauth/

by using Firefox 3.5 and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows Vista 32bit

Every time after I ignore (close without any action on the page)
Twitter OAuth application authorization page (the page that has Allow
and Deny button), I cannot load any page that using Twitter OAuth API
including Twitter own login system.

To describe in step-by-step, I open one of the above OAuth demo
website, click on the link that will give the application an access to
my twitter account, a browser redirect me to twitter page that require
me to choose Allow or Deny, I choose to ignore it and close that page.
Then I regret my action and try to open it again, I have encountered
The connection was reset on Firefox 3.5 and Internet Explorer
cannot display the webpage on IE, after I have clicked the same link.

I don't know why but it seems deleting all cookies is an only
resolution. This is reproducible every times on my machine.

OAuth BUG?

Thanks for all the follow up, guys. I tested this scenario on several
machine in my home after I posted the above question, and it's weird
that ALL experiencing the same thing.

I tested it on 1 Windows XP PC, 1 Windows XP laptop, 1 Windows XP
virtual machine. On both Firefox and IE.

Now I can't think of anything but a network problem, but how is it
possible?

 The problem I usually (systematically in fact) encounter is that if
 1 / I start a oauth process (go to the oauth login page on twitter)
 from a 3rd party app (say myoauthapp)
 2 / I don't click neither accept nor deny and just close the
 window (or tab),
 - when I sign-in on twitter, instead of being forwarded to my
 home_timeline, I'm brought to the Oauth accept page for the 3rd party
 app myoauthapp.

 I think this (buggy) behavior has already been reported on this group
 several weeks ago

  I¹m not angry. This is however a mailing list about Twitter development, and
  Panu is posing what seems like a legitimate question relating to Twitter
  development. Sending SPAM as original messages as one thing and would be
  ignored by everyone, sending spam in response to legitimate
  questions/threads is another, and probably especially frustrating for the
  person trying to get an answer to a question, in this case Panu.

  Anyway, just my 2 cents.

  Panu ­ I tried to reproduce that issue on my machine, but wasn¹t able too.
  Perhaps someone else can weigh in with a response that¹s not about disk
  defragmentation ;)

   why
   do people get so angry about things they see on the internet? it's the 
   easiest
   thing on the planet to ignore.
