Package: libnet-twitter-perl Version: 4.01000-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
The Net::Twitter module suddenly stopped working on 2014-01-14 at about 19:30 UTC. I now also get 403 Forbidden errors. The cause is a change in the Twitter API: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/24239 In the discussion: @newsytweets News As It Happens I am positive that I am using the https endpoint, but still getting 403 error code. Anyone else seeing the same problem? I am using Net::Twitter perl module. I checked the source code and it is indeed using https. @Cornel74 Cornel van Mastrigt I had a similar problem you could try the apiurl parameter to supply an alternative API url. It seems to be defaulting to http://api.twitter.com/1 I fixed my 403 errors by adding: apiurl => 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1' @newsytweets News As It Happens @cornel74 you are a lifesaver! Thanks. I've tried the apiurl => 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1' solution (I'm wondering why it wasn't done by default before!) but I still get an error: 500 Can't connect to api.twitter.com:443 (certificate verify failed) So, there are 2 problems: 1. The default apiurl that is now broken (it was insecure before). 2. The certificate error (for this one, I don't know which package is in fault). This bug report might be cloned after identifying the exact problem for (2), if not in libnet-twitter-perl. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libnet-twitter-perl depends on: ii libcarp-clan-perl 6.04-1 ii libclass-load-perl 0.20-1 ii libcrypt-ssleay-perl 0.58-1+b1 ii libdata-visitor-perl 0.30-1 ii libdatetime-format-strptime-perl 1.5400-1 ii libdatetime-perl 2:1.06-1 ii libdevel-stacktrace-perl 1.3000-1 ii libdigest-hmac-perl 1.03+dfsg-1 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.71-1+b1 ii libjson-perl 2.61-1 ii liblwp-protocol-https-perl 6.04-2 ii libmoose-perl 2.1005-1+b1 ii libmoosex-role-parameterized-perl 1.02-1 ii libnamespace-autoclean-perl 0.15-1 ii libnet-http-perl 6.06-1 ii libnet-oauth-perl 0.28-1 ii libtry-tiny-perl 0.18-1 ii liburi-perl 1.60-1 ii libwww-perl 6.05-2 ii perl 5.18.1-5 libnet-twitter-perl recommends no packages. libnet-twitter-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
