At first I thought this might be because HttpURLConnection wasn't handling SSL, but then I switched over to HttpPost (this code is in Java) which I know will handle SSL and I'm still getting a 401. I'm doing everything the same as with oauth, except passing the request token (I'm not even getting a request token any more) and I'm passing the x_auth_* parameters as regular parameters in the POST body. The three x_auth_* parameters are my only parameters and the normal OAuth header is in the "Authorization" field. I'm POSTing to the new access URL as specified in the xAuth docs with no success .
Thoughts anyone? I feel like such a noob asking for so much help with oAuth/xAuth :\. On Mar 2, 9:43 am, Isaiah Carew <isa...@me.com> wrote: > Try passing in nil as the token.
