TwitNotes stopped working today :-(

Don’t know if twitter.com changed the API or the service is just unreliable but today the service stopped working for me using TwitNotes. I get a “CWPST0071E: The maximum number of login attempts has been exceeded.” and some funny stacktraces in the log of the Notes client. I also see a “java.net.UnknownHostException: twitter.com” message. Using the website works fine though using the same username/password combination.

I will look into it.

  1. It might be coincidence, but I was putting TwitNotes on a fresh 8.5 install today and get this in the trace:

    Cookie rejected: … Illegal domain attribute ".twitter.com". Domain of origin: "twitter.com"

    org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodBase .processResponseHeaders

    It always worked for me in the past on 8.5.

  2. Yeah the api was changed. Previously twitter simply returned {"authorized":true} when verifying credentials but now they return a complete user object. A fix has been made and will go on the update site soon.
