401 error after uploading several images #7

Closed jackwakefield closed 11 years ago

jackwakefield commented 11 years ago

For the past two days I've been attempting to upload several hundred images using the library. After around 10-20 images (it never seems to be an exact number), I receive a 401 error.

I'm unsure whether this is an error with TwitPic or the library itself. I've attempted to contact TwitPic on Twitter but haven't had any luck.

Hi, Apparently you have a python script that succesfully posts pics. Mine does not I am afraid. Would you be willing to share the working code please? That would make me very happy! I have been troubleshooting 2 weeks but no working script yet.

As for Your question I would try to do a sleep 20 after every post? Op 22 aug. 2013 11:38 schreef "xadet" notifications@github.com het volgende:

I initially had an issue because Twitter deprecated their API 1 in favour of API 1.1. Although the pull request https://github.com/macmichael01/python-twitpic/pull/5 had been merged pip install python-twitpic didn't seem to work so I used pip install git+https://github.com/macmichael01/python-twitpic.git which did.

hanscees commented 11 years ago

Ok. But could I still use your code please? I am a bash and perl scripter, and python is really beyond me....

It's essentially

twitpic = TwitPicOAuthClient(
    consumer_key = '',
    consumer_secret = '',
    access_token = '',
    service_key = ''
)

response = twitpic.create('upload', {
    'media': '/file/path,
    'message': ''
})

print(response['url'])

The sleep didn't work unfortunately.

hanscees commented 11 years ago

Do you do something like For 1-10 upload.py So for every upload you call the script and thus log in with the api?

Or can you do Login Upload 1, upload 2, upload 3 Logout

I think it is the for 1-10 way right?

Perhaps try Upload 5 pics,

Sleep 3 minutes

Upload 5 again.

And then see if sleep 10 minutes works or 5 etc?

There was a recent update to API V1.1 though I haven't had the chance to upload the new python package but will try to do so tonight.

401s are usually a result of an invalid twitter oauth_token.

As for the the massive image uploading issue, sound like server throttling. I'd recommend using python threading and sleep for x amount of time as was mentioned above.

If you have python specific questions I would recommend directing such questions to a python users group since this section is used specifically for filing bugs.

Cheers!
