[twitter-dev] Re: Bad ssl certs on some servers for api.twitter.com/1 ?
When you use HTTP over HTTPS you will never have trouble with (TLS) certs because they are never used for port 80 traffic.

All of our servers have the same certificates; We have had some people report a similar issue before and we verified all of the certificates at that time. I do know of people having validation issues when they don't have current versions of OpenSSL, a current Root CA bundle, or their code has problems processing chained SSL certificates. Which program are you using to make requests against api.twitter.com? curl? Firefox? Twitter's SSL certs are issued by RapidSSL/Equifax. Make sure you have the proper root CA certs installed. If you're using OpenSSL libraries directly, remember that OpenSSL ships without any Root CA certs installed. Curl users will have similar problems as well -- you'll want to run mk- ca-bundle to get the proper ca-bundle installed.

[twitter-dev] [Feature-Request] The ability to use multiple phones.
Has there been any talk of allowing multiple phones? By multiple phones I mean many numbers that can send to 40404 and post under the same account. Also, I was wondering if there was any discussion over the topic of linking multiple profiles towards a single phone? I've been wanting the ability to send a SMS message and pick what account I update. -- - Adam Shannon ( http://ashannon.us )

[twitter-dev] Re: http vs https for twitter api calls
HTTPS is a secure and encrypted transfer protocol for HTTP. HTTPS is designed to hide sensitive data (passwords, credit card numbers) from malicious persons. So it's safe to say that whenever you will be transferring sensitive data (OAuth, passwords) you should use HTTPS.

[twitter-dev] Re: error with simple xml load file
You need to allow PHP to access 3rd party (external) domains and grab files
from them.
In your php.ini you should change this:
allow_url_fopen = Off
To:
allow_url_fopen = On
Also, if your host allows you to place php.ini files in the directory just
put this in a new php.ini file.
[PHP]
allow_url_fopen = On

[twitter-dev] I must be stupid.
Hey,
This is my first post and I'm new to Oauth, I must be doing something wrong
and I'm looking for help.
Here is just a sample uri generator i'm trying...
?php
// Some defaults
$consumer_key = ''; // Normally My Key
$consumer_secret_key = ''; // Normally the private key.
$signature_method = 'HMAC-SHA1';
// Lets get it setup
$request_uri = 'http://twitter.com/oauth/request_token';
$oauth['parms']['oauth_consumer_key'] = '?oauth_consumer_key=' .
$consumer_key;
$oauth['parms']['oauth_signature_method'] = 'oauth_signature_method=' .
$signature_method;
$oauth['parms']['oauth_signature'] = 'oauth_signature=' .
sha1($consumer_secret_key);
$oauth['parms']['oauth_timestamp'] = 'oauth_timestamp=' . time();
$oauth['parms']['oauth_nonce'] = 'oauth_nonce=' . (int) ceil( time() / (
rand(200, 5000) / 2 ) );
$oauth['parms']['oauth_version'] = 'oauth_version=1.0';
foreach ($oauth['parms'] as $parm) {
$request_uri = $request_uri . $parm;
}
echo $request_uri;
I read that the nonce has to be unique and I believe that it is, the
signature I have no clue (am I supposed to use a known substring of a
mycrypt? Or am I supposed to hash the data and let you compare it?
I'm really struggling with this, if I could get any help it would be great.

Well, you didn't state the results you're getting (which error) so I'm
just guessing here. If I'm not mistaken, PHP uses a hash for array
indexes and, thus, it may be adding the elements in the $request_uri
in the wrong order. I can't remember how to do that in PHP, but in
Python it would be something like:
for key in sort(oauth['params'].keys()):
request_uri += oauth['params'][key]

@Julio
Thanks, the error is:Failed to validate oauth signature and token.
Also, do the attributes need to be in some specified order?

I would really like to teach myself how to do this rather then just taking a
framework and relying on blackbox operations.
