    gwibber gives 'HTTP error 400: bad request' for twitter accounts

    gwibber was working fine and dandy, until one day i could no longer get twitter updates through it, it just gives 'HTTP error 400: bad request" in the little error viewer.

    My username and password are correct...and it is doing this to me in both jaunty and intrepid....any idea on how to fix it? =/

    Me too, and not just us...there's a bug in launchpad,

    https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/gwibber/+bug/358341

    there is a fix released, but it has not been uploaded for the stable version of gwibber for some reason. if you want the fix, use the daily release ppa.

    https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-daily/+archive/ppa

    or wait, and an update will appear soon.

    Also, you will have to re-enter your password for twitter and identi.ca if you switch to daily, but it will work fine.

    I got the update today, but it still doesn't work! I'll give the development one a go though.

    I am running jaunty and have this problem. I updated to the package in the daily-builds ppa and the problem still persists.

    I've just tried the daily-builds version too, problem is still there!

    I believe the problem is on Twitters end, as they've changed the API a bit. The Gnome-do twitter plug-in isn't working for me either.

    Actually, I noticed that I was now getting a 401 error (Unauthorized) instead of 400. I deleted the account in gwibber and recreated it. Now it seems to be working. I wonder if it will keep working?

    why is this still not working in jaunty? I have deleted the account and everything and it still gives me 400 bad request. this is just the one from the repos, and the one from the inrepid repos works fine....
