Tweetie no longer works

[Isacco71]

Hi Sonny, thank you for your very useful script.

I had installed Tweetie on my site a month ago, and everything worked fine ... but now something is wrong. I downloaded and added the latest version of all files, but the problem remains. Could you tell me what has changed?

Here the test page on my website: http://www.subaquadive.it/js/tweetie/index.html

The box that needs to accommodate the feed is in the footer on the site, at this address: http://www.subaquadive.it/en/index.php

Can you have a look at the server logs for any clue? You probably, ought to check if curl_init() is enabled on your server's PHP: return function_exists('curl_version'); The twitter OAuth files depend on this function.

[Isacco71]

Hi Kostasx, yes curl_init appears to be active... One month ago,when I've installed Tweetie for the first time, everything worked fine.

What about the server logs? Have you checked them? You need to find out what causes the 500 (Internal Server Error).

[Isacco71]

Here a line from the server log 78.15.174.213 www.subaquadive.it - [10/Jun/2014:13:57:14 +0200] "GET /js/tweetie/api/tweet.php?username=isaccocurreli&list=&hashtag=&count=1&exclude_replies=false HTTP/1.1" 500 351 "http://www.subaquadive.it/js/tweetie/index.html" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.114 Safari/537.36"

[kostasx]

This seems to be the access log. Can you check the error log? Try to connect from the site, watch for the 500 error on the browser console, check the time, and then check the server's error log.

[Isacco71]

Ok, I don't know if this can help...

500 Internal Server Error. "More information about this error may be available in the server error log." The problem is in the api/tweet.php file of the tweetie plugin. Try searching for the server error logs. Something breaks when this file is executed on the server side.

[Isacco71]

OK, thank You very much! I will try... It is strange because the file is the original tweet.php, I did not make any changes.

[sonnyt]

@Isacco71 Hey Man, it seems like the tweet.php file is not being found.

Currently it's trying to fetch from http://www.subaquadive.it/en/api/tweet.php?username=isaccocurreli&list=&hashtag=&count=10&exclude_replies=false but it's returning 404.

Make sure the file path is correct and accessible.

Sonny, P.S @kostasx thanks for the help :)

[kostasx]

That's on the 2nd link, sonnyt. In the first one (Demo: http://www.subaquadive.it/js/tweetie/index.html), the tweet.php is found but crashes on the server side.

[kostasx]

Are you running an apache webserver (linux)? If so, try and adding an .htaccess file in the /js/tweetie/api/ folder in your server, and browse to http://www.subaquadive.it/js/tweetie/api/tweet.php again. If everything works fine, you should see an error report on the page that can lead us to the root of the problem. The contents of the .htaccess file are:

php_flag display_errors 1 php_value error_reporting 30719

P.S. @sonnyt thanx for the plugin :)

[Isacco71]

OK, I did it... but the script already returns 500... not error report

[kostasx]

hmmmmm. The error reporting depends on the server configuration. I guess it doesn't work with the current configuration. It seems like you have to dig a little deeper into the server's error logs. Good luck.

[Isacco71]

@sonnyt I've fixed the wrong url returning 404 in the website...

[Isacco71]

@kostasx Thank U so much!

[kostasx]

@Isacco71 Hey, one last try. Try replacing the tweep.php file with this one: http://pastebin.com/Bgd2JDna It encloses the code inside a try catch statement. Let me know if it produces a different output. ( Be sure to keep the .htaccess on the api/ folder. ) ...and visit: http://www.subaquadive.it/js/tweetie/api/tweet.php

[Isacco71]

OK, I did it... but not yet :( thank you anyway ;)

[jenbuzz]

Maybe you copy-pasted a bad character somewhere. That was the only way I could get the same error. Try downloading the plugin again and overwrite all files. Or at least take a look at your config.php; maybe that's where you did something wrong. It could be as simple as a missing semicolon or something like that.

[Isacco71]

Hi @dan-lyn! I already tried to replace all the files, I also changed the api-keys...but nothing. The strange thing is that it worked before, and that has stopped without any intervention on the code.

[jenbuzz]

@Isacco71 did you ever take a look in the error_log as previously suggested? What you copy-pasted here was from the access_log

[Isacco71]

I cannot find the error log on the server, I wrote to the customer care for help... waiting for it :(

[sonnyt]

I will close this because it's more of hosting error and not plugin. Please contact your hosting provider, if anything come back to us :)
