PO401 error with Ruby OAuth for Twitter
text
Body
copied!<p>xI've been working for days to get Twitter to authenticate with Ruby, but I'm not having any luck.</p> <p>My first attempt was something like this:</p> <pre><code>class TwitterController < ApplicationController def index @callback_url = "http://dev.twipler.com:3000/twitter/auth" @auth= TwitterOAuth::Client.new( :consumer_key => "xxx", :consumer_secret => "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ) @rtoken = @auth.request_token :oauth_callback => @callback_url @token = @rtoken.token @secret = @rtoken.secret @link = @rtoken.authorize_url session['token' ] = @token session['secret'] = @secret redirect_to @link end def auth @auth.authorize_from_request(session[:rtoken], session[:rsecret], params[:oauth_verifier]) end end </code></pre> <p>And a very similar way but with the Twitter gem, and the same with the OAuth gem directly. No matter what OAuth::Consumer::token_request dies with a 401 error.</p> <p>So, out of desperation I attempted to git clone <a href="http://github.com/moomerman/sinitter" rel="nofollow noreferrer" title="snitter">Snitter</a>, add my Twitter creds, and try it, but it too dies with a 401.</p> <p>I've tried using localhost:300/twitter/auth, <a href="http://dev.twipler.com:3000/twitter/auth" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dev.twipler.com:3000/twitter/auth</a>, and a bit.ly for each of the former 2. Nothing works.</p> <p>Any help?</p> <p>EDIT: Of course I would forget to do the most logical thing to do and delete my secrets. (They've been changed ;)).</p>
