500 internal server error getting access token

David — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:52:55 GMT

Hi,

I currently ran into this problem where attempting to exchange the request token for an access token gives a 500 internal server error. I tried with the access delegation tool (http://developer.myspace.com/modules/apis/pages/accessdelegationtool.aspx) and that is also giving an "InternalServerError" notice. Would anybody have an idea why this error is showing up? I would imagine that a external domain validation error would give a 4XX error code.

I can provide any additional information if that is required.

Thanks,

David

How do you request specific user permissions for a MySpaceID application?

christophercrooker — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 17:57:53 GMT

I have implemented several MySpaceID clients from scratch now, and understand the system pretty well. However, I get errors when I try to access (some of) the OpenSocial v0.9 endpoints. The response is 401 as usual, but the error message is "x-opensocial-error: Application does not have permission to view person's full contact info". I am trying to access this endpoint:

http://opensocial.myspace.com/roa/09/statusmood/@me/@self

I can see on other applications that there is a new permission configuration screen. But, when I add the app to a profile, I just see a single checkbox to allow access to information. Also, my application does not appear in the list of installed applications so I cannot click on the link that shows up for other applications to modify the permission configuration.

How do we do this? I do not have the option of creating UI on MySpace to manually request permissions using the opensocial APIs.

MySpaceID JSL Broken?? Unable to Login...

MocoSpace — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 19:54:04 GMT

I'm following the demo and sample code more or less exactly but get a popup window with "Oops! We're sorry, but we are unable to process your request. It looks like something is incorrect in the request we received from the site or service that brought you here." when calling MSID.Connect.requestLogin() (after calls to MSID.Connect.init() and MSID.Connect.tryConnect()). The URL in the popup is:

http://api.myspace.com/openid?myspaceid.consumer_key=597fb936da5d4008873541b159a22ea2&myspaceid.target_domain=http%3A%2F%2Fstage.mocospace.com%2F

I've got my RelayReceiver.html file in the root directory of my Webserver, and my app status shows as "Live". I've tried any number of workarounds, am about to give up on this. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Basic test failed with new myspaceid app

Chad — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 19:26:59 GMT

I have an iframe app we made a long time ago and the test is very simple it just makes you login via myspaceid and returns the authenticated info (http://api.myspace.com/v1/user). It works fine with my old APP, but with the new apps set of keys it just returns nothing. I even tried testing the External App Auth via this link: http://developer.myspace.com/modules/apis/pages/accessdelegationtool.aspx ... I get to Step 3 of 5 and click the "Get Access Token" button and I get a ajax response that says "InternalServerError -" in red. But like I said it works fine with my older app (which is not myspaceid). I'm starting to think our keys (consumer/secret) are no in your system or something. Any help is greatly appreciated.

got http code 201 but received nothing even in notification box

tang — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 07:03:02 GMT

hello everyone, I am totally confused about the api call bellow.

I have built a myspaceid application and now

I want to send message through my site on behalf of myspace users with

http://api.myspace.com/v1/applications/123XXX/notifications

and I got http code 201 which means "Created" according to official document, I try and try and try,

but received nothing in my friends' notification box or their homepage.

why??? Is there anyone who can help me?

Today I found a message about myspaceid as bellow

[Publish notifications from your Web site to MySpace (coming soon)]

does it means that I can not send notifications with a myspaceid application?

Is there anyone from myspaceid development team who can tell me when can I use this function on my website?

It seems that the api call [http://api.myspace.com/v1/applications/123XXX/notifications] is for MySpaceApp not for

MySpaceID. Is there anything wrong with my understanding?

Get friends list not returning all friends

Karthik — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 09:08:33 GMT

Hi,

I am running into problems using the MyspaceId-PHP-SDK to retrieve all of a user's friends at once. I was setting the pageSize parameter of the getFriends() function in myspace.php to "all", but that was only return 20 friends. Then, I noticed that myspace.php sets a "pageSize" parameter while the API calls for a "page_size" parameter. So I changed line 233 of myspace.php to read:

'page_size' => (empty($pageSize) ? 20 : $pageSize),

After that, I am able to get 99 friends. Is there something I am missing? How can I retrieve all friends in one shot?

Thanks,
Karthik

Login using MyspaceID on mobille browser

Adnan — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 09:10:48 GMT

I have developed a website optimized for mobile browser. The website allows users to sign in using myspaceid. On a mobile browser, when user clicks on myspaceid button, it redirects to myspace login page (i-e http://api.myspace.com/authorize/oauth_token?=xxx, this page is not optimized for mobile screen. Is there any way to show this login page optimized for mobile screen?

MySpaceId Fail to redirect after authentication

Hong — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:36:32 GMT

Hi:

After this authenticating at this url:

http://api.myspace.com/authorize?oauth_token=xV5SNHElLaO%2B4hvoYQlhJGptSN2TXi8EjCt3AVGwVYS2JbH%2FY3LwJhC8uEim5w3NsIuZ6EjZiAe2gimPphSsZ8gkW%2Fjma3mp2Wp6LSwIKRIa0qppvuEYg4haTr7EozR1&oauth_callback=http%3A%2F%2Fdog.com%2Fsocial_buy%2Fmyspace_authorized%3Fshare_id%3D30

No problem with signature or anything. The myspace simply says "Success! Your account has been linked to myapp. You may now close this window." The url of that window is "http://api.myspace.com/Authorize.mvc/LinkAccount?some params", instead of actually redirecting back to dog.com

I use the developer account of the app, and I made sure that External site url is http://dog.com, so is the external domain. I even published the app, but no help at all. I am using the ruby sdk.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Status 403 - Banned IP

Desktop app: signature_invalid via /access_token

NuSkooler — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:40:54 GMT

A few months back I developed a C++/wxWidgets library for accessing MySpace REST. I'm now back on the project and am having issues authenticating via OAuth. The first thing I had to do is create a new API key (MySpaceID) as the old one apparently got converted into the wrong type. Everything now works as expected until I try to exchange my token with /access_token. When doing so, I get this response:

oauth_problem=signature_invalid

Now, here is the confusing part:

Using the online OAuth tool, I can enter the same input variables (nonce, timestamp, token, ...) and generate a query string: It is 100% identical to the one I am sending; If I then use the "Generate URI and Submit" option, I get the expected response: A authenticated token. However, the exact same URL sent from my client gets the above error back from the server.

To re-iterate:

My GET URL is 100% identical to that generated by the online OAuth tool
Using said URL, my client gets "oauth_problem=signature_invalid" as a response; The online OAuth tool gets the expected results (an authenticated token)

Is there something I'm missing here? Do I need to send additional data in the HTTP headers? Please help!

Getting oauth callback url malformed error with MySpaceID Ruby SDK

Saumil — Fri, 21 Aug 2009 20:14:00 GMT

I downloaded the basic MySpaceID Ruby SDK and have been having a hellish time getting OAuth to work. I'm using the oauth_controller to authenticate and once I put in my username/password, I get a response with:

oauth_problem = parameter_rejected

oauth_parameter_rejected = oauth_callback

oauth_problem_advice = oauth callback uri is malformed.

Now: this should NOT occur because I'm using official MySpace supplied Ruby code. But regardless, I have gone in and changed the callback_url to every possible combination on our site (http://foobar.com, foobar.com/testpage, /testpage, with and without escaping, etc.) and seem to consistently get back the same error response.

Documentation on this specific area of oAuth is pretty sparse here on MySpace. Can someone please step in and help?

* Realm Already Used

ethan — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:59:16 GMT

I created a MySpace ID app on this MySpace user and set the realm to a specific domain I was using (including the trailing slash, because that seems to cause errors otherwise.) I now need to migrate this app to a new MySpace user using the same domain/realm for authentication. I have deleted the MySpaceID app from this account and created the new MySpaceID App on the other MySpace account, but now when I try to add the realm to my new app I keep getting the error: "Already Used". Is this a known error? Is there a fix for it? Am I being forced to use a completely new realm?

Not getting back oauth_callback_confirmed when fetching request token

Getting a 200 OK from the api but in the response body, only seeing the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret. According to OAuth 1.0RevA , i should be also seeing a oauth_callback_confirmed param. Am i missing something ?

myspaceID access token error

huricanes2001 — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 17:49:49 GMT

Dear MDP Team,

I'm getting a 500 error message when I use your Oauth external app Auth tool Specifically when I get to the last step where I exchange the request token for an access one.

I'm getting a similar error in my code, where I am using the Zend Framework for PHP to retrieve this. Everything is going smoothly up until I request an access token.

Let me know if you can take a look into it.

Thanks!

MySpaceID desktop app post/put request

Milos — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 15:27:13 GMT

Every time I try post/put request I get error 401, even when I try it in the OAuth Testing Tool. Do I have to have some permisions to do that? If so how can I get permisions?

Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials

Garbagezero — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:48:48 GMT

Hi,

krunal told in one post that "Currently there is no user controlled permission model for MySpaceID apps". Can a developer upload photo to his account from myspaceid sdk sample with our permission model?. It is returning the following error response when i try to upload photo.

<div id="header"><h1>Server Error</h1></div>
<div id="content">
<div class="content-container"><fieldset>
<h2>401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.</h2>
<h3>You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.</h3>
</fieldset></div>
</div>

Waiting for your reply.

Thanks,

I think the time in the activity streams is off.

Joey — Mon, 18 May 2009 12:28:53 GMT

When using python and feedparser to parse the atom feed created by get_activities and get_friends_activities, it appears that the timestamp given is way behind the time of the actual event. It appears as if the time is using possibly pacific time (didn't do the math, but it's close) but being presented as if it were GMT (Z).

Clarity on MySpaceID and OpenSocial 0.9

BEEF — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 03:34:29 GMT

Hello,

I just wanted some clarification on the abilities of MySpaceID and the OpenSocial 0.9 REST resources. Is it possible to post comments on friend's statuses? The documentation is very spotty on the abilities of MySpaceID with this new resource. So I'm looking for more of a punch list of yes/no capabilities for all the 0.9 methods you list in the documentation (as it pertains to MySpaceID).

Thanks,

Brett

Debug ideas: access token request times out?

Yuri — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 05:22:12 GMT

Using the hybrid approach I'm able to sign in via OpenID and receive the OAuth request token as expected, but requesting the access token from that results in an http read time out (with the read time out set to two minutes.) An example POST is

"POST /access_token HTTP/1.1\r\nAccept: */*\r\nConnection: close\r\nUser-Agent: OAuth gem v0.3.6\r\nAuthorization: OAuth oauth_nonce=\"sgQ6sMZareqlGZpHm7rwyDzrBe8KpznmKCsCjM97WU\", oauth_signature_method=\"HMAC-SHA1\", oauth_timestamp=\"1260248771\", oauth_consumer_key=\"210ddbb4e8394a5bba9cd564ff9763ac\", oauth_token=\"dGIwDThdDtIkTHo39w4XNkwdi4iFSLIpkSRShdUAGgRttQrshZynf%2F9rYCcIjjWJudT1O%2Bwg2S8OWfAa%2B%2BqmXYTPF0d%2BjGi%2FMhXZ0%2FRWPmkoFCC26AxVizixudk2d4rD\", oauth_verifier=\"75137cf8-9278-416e-a8d1-823cffe4c6ce\", oauth_signature=\"Y6EFY05vAXGYXnsP0TWN0PGFyFA%3D\", oauth_version=\"1.0\"\r\nContent-Length: 0\r\nHost: stage-api.myspace.com\r\n\r\n"

As that shows, am using the Ruby OAuth gem. FWIW, the same code in play here does work with the hybrid sign ins of Google and Yahoo. I've traced through the Ruby SDK sample and, insofar as I can see, verified this does all that does. And, I've tried varying everything I can think of just to get a different response, or rather any response, with the only result being a 500 error if I switch the method to GET or the scheme to query string.

Any ideas on what could be wrong or how to debug and find what is?

timestamp_refused

Pavel — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:49:44 GMT

I'm having a trouble of application returning error code timestamp_refused. Please let me know what I could be doing wrong.

I realize that this must have something to do with the timezones, but I'm not sure what exactly and why.

I could make this working only by changing library file to make my timestamp match the range, like this:

private static function generate_timestamp() {
//dirty hack here for now
return time()+14200;
}

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you

Cannot add test users

Pavel — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:38:23 GMT

I'm developming a myspace application and I would like to test it.
I tried to add test users without any luck. At "Developers & Testers" page I see only "Developers" block. On the net I found a screenshot which shows that there should also be a "Testers" block. I tried to drag the user to the place where that block is supposed to be and the user "became green", though after refreshing it is white again, so I guess it was not added.
Please help me to solve this.

Authorizing for command-line apps

Andrew — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 15:25:50 GMT

How would I authorize a user to use a command-line application? I'm using MySpaceID for a desktop app. However MySpace is refusing to save my setting due to needing callback URLs.
