passwords with special character issue #1

Open saidmmm2002 opened 14 years ago

saidmmm2002 commented 14 years ago

Hi, Great Code. When a password has a special character such as +, this causes the xAuth process to fail. I am aware that I need to url-encode it before (or maybe not?), anyways I tried both cases, but no luck. I know it is from the + sign, but still cant get it to work. Note: the password works fine when using regular Basic authentication

Any comments? or help would be great. Thanks

Never mind, fixed the issue. Thank you

Do you mind sharing how you fixed the issue? Was it a XAuthTwitterEngine problem?

jfahrenkrug commented 14 years ago

Yes, I'd also like to know how you fixed it.

Me, too ;-)

I just went to the original implementation at git://github.com/norio-nomura/ntlniph.git

IMPORTANT: READ THIS FIRST: http://aralbalkan.com/3133 - it will keep you from banging your head against the wall since you have to explicitly ask Twitter to activate xAuth for your app! And also read this: http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-REST-API-Method:-oauth-access_token-for-xAuth

Sorry, i was looking through norio nomura's implementation, but that seems to be using basic auth. What exactly did you do?

saidmarouf commented 13 years ago

At the moment authentication is going through regular OAuth, i.e. through a webview that brings up Twitter's own authentication page.
