updateStatus method does not work for Twitter

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.load configurations, keys etc and store the Twitter provider to 'ap'
AuthProvider object
2.call ap.updateStatus("Test");

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The Twitter status should be updated.

org.brickred.socialauth.exception.SocialAuthException: Failed to update status 
on http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json?status=Test. Staus :401
    at org.brickred.socialauth.provider.TwitterImpl.updateStatus(TwitterImpl.java:255)
...

There is also a minor typo in the message
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
4.0 - Windows

Please provide any additional information below.
I have tested other custom queries, like one that gets my timeline, with api 
function and they work so I use a valid token.
The problem must exist with certain post queries.

A workaround I found is to put parameters of post requests in the body. This is 
described in the OAuth tool description under Request query.
This tool is available on the right of every rest API documentation page if you 
are logged in

I tested that using apigee console for twitter 
(https://apigee.com/console/twitter) in which the request also fails if default 
parameters are used.
I selected the Body tab and filled in Parameter 'status' and in value 'test'. 
The request succeeded

When I filled 'status=test' in body request returned '401 API is secure. Needs 
security Credentials'

However I don't know how to make a successful request in SocialAuth and if api 
Provider function supports it.

Update of additional information.
A twitter rest api documentation page of status update is the following
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/post/statuses/update

SocialAuth uses 1 version not 1.1 but the problem is the same for both

It is working fine for me. Though we are adding status parameter in query 
string but at end before making POST request we add this in body and removed 
from query string.

LOG details as given below of my request and it is working fine.

You are right I was using a read-only access token.
I generated a new one with write access as well from 
https://dev.twitter.com/apps.
I am not running a web application so I don't authorize Twitter directly.

Great!
Closing this issue now.

Hey, we have our portal http://labs.3pillarglobal.com . We are planning to 
feature applications on our Portal those are using SocialAuth.

It’ll be great if you can provide some information about your application so 
that we can feature it on our portal.
