[twitter-dev] Re: Problem in past 48 hours: friendships/create severe lag or loss

I haven't tested right through yet but issues relating to the POST/ 
auth requests from over the w/e and yesterday look largely resolved  
for me with all actions queued up and executed in the end.

Thank-you for getting onto that and sorting.

database all of these actions, we're worried that we're going to have

actually go through.

Not app specific but as a user via the web I am noticing the following
possibly related behaviors:

- new users showing up in my followers list w/o an email being sent

- emails being sent about new followers w/o the follower showing up in my
followers list

- followers i blocked still showing up in my followers list (with one
follower I had to block I think 4 times for it to finally stick)

 Hi,
 I too am seeing a similar issue.  I have had a lot of users say that this
 is occurring even going so far to raise chargebacks against my service.

 I also notice that friendships/create often returns a 200 but the response
 is empty, when normally you get the information about the person being
 followed.  I am ignoring the blank responses for now, but I don't know if
 that is correct as I can't tell if these are followed or not bearing in mind
 that even if user information is returned the user still might not be
 followed.

 Woke up this morning to find that several of our users have written in
 noting that friendship actions taken through our application are not
 working.

 We confirmed this problem, across multiple IPs and multiple different
 apps.  Friendships/create works inconsistently: about 30% of the time
 they work as expected, and the new friends immediately appear in
 friends/ids API call, as well as when logging into Twitter.com and
 looking at the new friends pages (we see following).

 Another 30% appear to be delayed for several hours, during which time
 a call to friends/ids does NOT show new friends' ids (nor on
 Twitter.com).  Another 30% appears to be lost forever (or severely
 lagged).

 All of these friendship creates are returning no errors.

 A search of @twitterapi on Twitter indicates that this is a (fairly)
 widespread problem.

 Can Twitter give us some idea as to when this problem will be
 resolved?  Any chance you can also add a status update for this
 problem so we can point users to that page?

The writes are all safely queued. They all should all eventually apply
correctly and consistently.

Keep an eye on the status blog.
