So instead of doing

curl --netrc -s -D - http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.xml

I should be doing

curl --location --referer ";auto" --netrc -s -D -
http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.xml

(where "http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.xml"; is just one example)

ps - I'm not doing this through PHP, it's all on the commandline

The one client we are having the most issues with is simple a
timeline / DM checker for iPhone push notifications...  because these
are ALL get request I'ved made sure that they all have the follow
location enabled now.

Just oAuth and random blocking/rate limiting that I hope they work on
next :)

I see this behavior 1/4 times I call rate_limit_status and I call  
rate_limit_status every 5 minutes..

 If you are able to programmatically see that you are getting these
 redirects, try calling the account/rate_limit_status call [1] (it
 could be any call, but this one is "free" and is a GET). You should
 still get a 302 (I'm pretty sure). Then if you jump through the
 redirect hoops with this call, it should clear you from more  
 302's for
 a while.

I've seen it a couple times tonight and I'm not even doing any real
testing, just trying a few variations manually to see if I might fine
tune some of the calls in the library that I'm writing.

2009-08-08 Thread Naveen Ayyagari

Sometimes the rate_limit_status call is not returning a 302 to  
redirect, or the rate_limit_status xml, but HTML with a meta refresh  
in it (which curl doesnt understand to follow redirect/retry).

Its not huge problem for us, but it can affect some throttling code  
people may or may not be implementing. (when you get this response, a  
subsequent retry request usually succeeds 95% of the time)


Here is an example response I am talking about:

2009-08-08 Thread Chad Etzel

Hmm,

Unfortunately this 302 business will completely goof OAuth calls.

If you are able to programmatically see that you are getting these
redirects, try calling the account/rate_limit_status call [1] (it
could be any call, but this one is "free" and is a GET). You should
still get a 302 (I'm pretty sure). Then if you jump through the
redirect hoops with this call, it should clear you from more 302's for
a while.

I'm out today, but if someone could try this and report back if it
works that would be helpful.

I've seem the 302 Location headers having invalid URLs... i.e. two "?"
symbols.
The original query string and then an additional "?" for the token at
the end.
Following this redirect blindly has resulted in a Forbidden response.

Also it is unclear whether the redirect location needs to be re-
signed? (I am not doing so, but may explain the 403?)

Excellent our client now supports the 302's :)

2009-08-07 Thread Chad Etzel

You may have to follow redirects more than once *wink wink nudge nudge*

with curl you can add --location flag. There's a good bit of info in
the man page as well.

If using curl with PHP, you can set:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
