Question

twitter api always give "Sorry, that page does not exist" error for deleted tweets

Using Twitter API has started giving a Sorry Page does not exist error even though it worked earlier on

Twitter 404 – message":"Sorry, that page does not exist","code":34

Hi, I have read the above questions but the suggestions don’t fix it for me.

I have a page on my site that lets users authenticate my twitter application that then posts a tweet on their timeline.

The API is returning {"errors":[{"message":"Sorry, that page does not exist","code":34}]} in the JSON response.

If I follow the suggestions I have read in other questions, changing the EpiTwitter class from

const EPITWITTER_SIGNATURE_METHOD = 'HMAC-SHA1';
protected $requestTokenUrl = 'http://twitter.com/oauth/request_token';
protected $accessTokenUrl = 'http://twitter.com/oauth/access_token';
protected $authorizeUrl = 'http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize';
protected $apiUrl = 'http://twitter.com';

to

const EPITWITTER_SIGNATURE_METHOD = 'HMAC-SHA1';
protected $requestTokenUrl= 'https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token';
protected $accessTokenUrl = 'https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token';
protected $authorizeUrl   = 'https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize';
protected $authenticateUrl= 'https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authenticate';
protected $apiUrl         = 'https://api.twitter.com';
protected $searchUrl      = 'http://search.twitter.com';

doesn’t work either, when the login link is generated by the app it goes to https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token= which says there was no request token for this page.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?

Apologies,

I knew the Twitter API had changed but didn’t see that the class files had been updated.

For anyone else having the same problem simply update your files from here:

Please note that there is a new file called EpiSequence.php (although I’m not sure what it’s purpose is yet).

At first I thought the files hadn’t been updated to work with the new api url’s because I couldn’t see anything that showed signs of a recent commit.
