401 Unauthorized - without triggers

Project:Twitter
Version:6.x-2.6
Component:Code
Category:bug report

Issue Summary

I get this message when creating new content that is supposed to also be published on Twitter:

An error occurred when posting to twitter: 401 Unauthorized

It happens whether I tick the option to post or untick it (on node/add/* page).

This is all without a trigger assigned to it, because when using triggers even unwanted posts are pushed to Twitter (unpublished, and unticking it when creating new content) so I disabled them.

Possibly related - Unpublished nodes are posted to Twitter

Same problem. It was working fine, then a week ago I started getting this message. I checked my password for the default Twitter account to see if that might have been an issue, but it isn't.

#2

Same issue here - subscribing.

#3

i had to remove my twitter accounts in my profile then I had to re-enter the user/pass in the setup

#4

have the same problem...it was working fine, now suddenly a 401 error... removing the accounts didnt help

#5

same problem.. and removing accounts didn't help..

Anybody got some ideas i can try?

thx

#6

I solved it with deactivating the "Twitter Actions" module (dont need it) and removing and re-adding the twitter accounts. Now it works again.

... one more subscribing - first my linkedin integration went now Twitter - ..... hope this solves it.

No, nothing here helped - twitter was working well and then suddenly without any apparent reason on my Drupal installation - 2 different sites -same host - stopped posting to twitter some 23 hours ago.

????????????

Seems to be a general problem with Twitter 2 of my sites different hosts and same error and got an email from twitter that they're going on for big changes maybe that's why

I suspect this could be due to twitter changing their API and no longer supporting basic authentication. See: http://drupal.org/node/404470 and http://blog.twitter.com/2010/08/twitter-applications-and-oauth.html

I love this quote "Fortunately, developers have known about our transition to OAuth since last December, so they’ve had time to update their apps"...

.... yeeeesssssss and in true big boy fashion - I just received the email announcing the changes from Twitter - 2 days after the event ...

So, what is the answer then for those wh wasted time trying to install, re-install and reset things time and again.

Someone out there who can give us a brief note on what to do now?? Thanks .....

Hey Guys,

We are all having problems today! Check out this issue:
http://drupal.org/node/404470

Hopefully we can get a quick fix up for 2x... it doesn't seem like we are that far away. I unfortunately don't understand the project enough to help with the coding.

That's good news Kingmoore
