[twitter-dev] updating a status receiving 401 unauthorized
hi i deleted my app. re-created it (again as read-write) and gave myself an authorization to use it. now i can receive my statuses and my followees statuses as many times as i want, i can even get my profile image. all is working fine! now i want to update a new status. made sure my info is correct (fact is i can receive any info i want) and POSTed to: http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.xml, this: status=This+status +is+for+rent with the following headers: Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key=my consumer key,oauth_signature_method=HMAC- SHA1,oauth_timestamp=1286028752,oauth_nonce=074D9949F81AE0485176287E05A1FCE7,oauth_version=1.0,oauth_token=the correct oauth token, same as when receiving data,oauth_signature=oauth signature as when receiving data but guess what: i get 401 unauthorized. what am i missing? is something missing from the above headers? or maybe it's something else? thanks! -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

* please read my comments inside the
* i store the token and token secret and i checked and they are the
same
here is what i do step by step until it doesnt work. first i ask for
authorization and get it with a PIN. then the user enters the PIN and
gets the information.
first i call for the user's statuses and this works:
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/user.xml?oauth_consumer_key=consumer
keyoauth_nonce=F89B4E724909C57D71193B24D075B88Foauth_signature_method=HMAC-
SHA1oauth_signature=oauth sig, changes every
calloauth_timestamp=1285925817oauth_token=oauth token, same as in
the next call, different than the other 2 callsoauth_version=1.0
then i ask for the followees statuses and that is working too:
http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline.xml?count=10oauth_consumer_key=consumer
keyoauth_nonce=8C822206BE598A78CF97E942CB8A24E5oauth_signature_method=HMAC-
SHA1oauth_signature=oauth sig, changes every
calloauth_timestamp=1285925833oauth_token=same as previous call,
different than the next 2 callsoauth_version=1.0
then i simply press the button again to make the same 2 calls once
again, first i ask for the user statuses and this works:
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/emailaya.xml?oauth_consumer_key=consumer
keyoauth_nonce=F7414A51B2D59AF04E13D7D2A58821DAoauth_signature_method=HMAC-
SHA1oauth_signature=oauth sig, changes every
calloauth_timestamp=1285925869oauth_token=oauth token, different
than the ones from above, same as in the next calloauth_version=1.0
then i ask for the followees statuses but this time, it doesnt work
with the not authorized error:
http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline.xml?count=10oauth_consumer_key=consumer
keyoauth_nonce=3AC90E2A7C528953FC32A1B909D54B53oauth_signature_method=HMAC-
SHA1oauth_signature=oauth sig, changes every
calloauth_timestamp=1285925897oauth_token=same as in the above
calloauth_version=1.0
what am i missing?
the weird thing is that the user statuses do work but the right after
that i call the followees statuses and that doesnt work, though just 2
seconds ago, in the previous 2 calls, right after the authorization,
it did work with no problem.
to update a status, right after the authorization from the user, i
call to this url: http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml but again, i
get unauthorized. i never succeeded to update a status for that
reason. here there is no complex url that contains parameters
what am i missing?

[twitter-dev] Re: not authorized over and over again
im doing the following:
Twitterh.Key := consumer key - hard coded
Twitterh.Secret := consumer secret - hard coded
Twitterh.OAuth_token :=
SettingsFile.ReadString('TWITTER','TOKEN',''); //saved from when i got
the authorization from the user
Twitterh.OAuth_token_secret :=
SettingsFile.ReadString('TWITTER','TOKENSECRET',''); //saved from when
i got the authorization from the user
after getting the authorization from the user i can do both getting
the statuses of the user and the followees but NOT updating the
status.
after restart of the application, at first try i do succeed to
receive the user's statuses but not his followees' , on second try
(without restart), i can do nothing and all for the same reason: not
authorized
not sure i understood the other reply of re-hashing, hashing of what
exactly? the only place i do some processing is when i ask for
authorization from the user. i want it so once i have it, to not need
to re-ask it over and over again
what am i missing?
thanks

If you save those four keys, you should have everything you need to
restore the session.
If this does not work for you, make sure that you save the keys
properly. For example, you don't want to confuse oauth_token with
oauth_consumer_key.

Im developing a desktop application. firstly, the user needs to
approve my app to let it access his account, enter the PIN code and
retrieve his statuses and his followees' statuses, all is working
fine.
im closing my application and re-open it. now i already have his PIN
code so im skipping the authorization part. i put the oauth_key and
oauth_key_secret, the consumer_key and consumer_secret and ask for his
statuses, this one works but when i want to retrieve his followees
statuses i get unauthorized error. trying again causing the
unauthorized error also for his statuses. the only way to solve this
problem is to ask for an authorization everytime, this is annoying.
also, i cant update the status for the same reason/error
any idea what am i missing?
thanks
