Hello there.

I have installed the Twitter module (now version 6.x-3.x-dev, but I started trying with 6.x-3.0-beta3) together with the OAuth module (version 6.x-2.02).

After successfully registering my application with Twitter and inputting the consumer key and consumer secret, when I go to edit my account, twitter accounts, and click the button Add Account, the browser goes to http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token= and since the oauth_token is not filled in, Twitter gives the following error:

"This page is no longer valid. It looks like someone already used the token information you provided. Please return to the site that sent you to this page and try again … it was probably an honest mistake."

I have already tried uninstalling both modules, removing all information from the database and starting fresh, with both the dev version and the beta3 version, and I still get the same problem. What should I do?

Thank you,
Felipe.

By the way, I forgot to mention, I have also tried all three options of the OAuth cryptography settings.

I am sorry, ignore the post. After debugging the module I found out that the problem is that my free hosting company is not letting the website get data from the twitter.com domain, although requesting http from other websites works. That's what is creating this problem.

I would just suggest that the module provides a better error message / treatment for this issue in case it happens. I will see if I can make a patch for that.

Thanks!
