Closed pauljamesharper closed 12 years ago

pauljamesharper commented 12 years ago

When I click on Authorize Twitter I get the following. How do I fix? ( I am using with Debian Unstable- Sid with Creepy 0.1.9

~$ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/creepy", line 515, in button_authorize_twitter url = self.oauth.get_authorization_url(True) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tweepy/auth.py", line 103, in get_authorization_url raise TweepError(e) tweepy.error.TweepError: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized

I followed directions from below.

I'm using creepy with backtrack5 but when i have to press the authorize creepy button nothing happens. I've got firefox set as my default browser and set in my preferred application list

@gluesniffmonkey The problem you are describing has 100% to do with your system's set time. oAuth has synchronization requiremnets on the two systems that negotiate the authorization. Take a look here http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/aadee92bc5c34f29?pli=1 , resolve the issue with your system's time and if it does not fix your problem, feel free to reopen the issue.
