In my experience *grin* it's always the initial sign in process that's the hardest. Once you have that solved... it's cake to integrate all of the other methods. It's like building blocks, just need a good foundation.

Thanks for your help. I'm sure we will be finding more good stuff.

 Hi can you please give C# code for this as i am stuck in the middle it would be a great help if you provide C# code to validate the signed request 

 Hello, experts!

This topic is very popular, and i'm also trying to solve 401 (invalid dig. signature) still second day. I'm blank and ask you if you could help me somewhat.

So,

the URL is:

http://api.myspace.com/v1/users/440332656?oauth_consumer_key=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.myspace.com%2F440555278&oauth_nonce=7410411398079278968&oauth_signature=3KzTHZ2obKKUzTvtUiRz6VU8QN0%3D&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&oauth_timestamp=1230630722&oauth_version=1.0

the Base String:

GET&http%3A%2F%2Fapi.myspace.com%2Fv1%2Fusers%2F440332656&oauth_consumer_key%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.myspace.com%2F440555278%26oauth_nonce%3D7410411398079278968%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%3D1230630722%26oauth_version%3D1.0

the signature is:

3KzTHZ2obKKUzTvtUiRz6VU8QN0=

Consumer secret: a534fc1c65ce4c2aa429e08a26d32421

Something wrong is there, but i cannot to find it :-(

I would appreciate any kind of help.

Thanks in advance, Oleg.

I'm using Perl... can someone please tell me how to construct oauth_nonce??

and is it just the timestamp and nonce I need to dynamically change for a given app?

Also, I've been using the Oauth testing tool for this yet when I copy and paste the resulting URI into a new tab, it comes back with rogue request - is that supposed to happen or am i missing something? I know the request is valid, because if I hard code it in my program it works... until the key expires anyway. So since I've got the timestamp ok, the only other thing I think it could be is nonce, and I'm not clear on how to construct that value.

Thanks,

Vaughan

Oleg are you still having this problem?

 Hi, thank you for interesting it that matter. Fortunately, i've solved it somehow :-). Now it works fine. I don't know if it's bug or not. Just a minute i shall describe later. I guess it seems like double encoding. So, the consumer key should be in form of http://myapaces.com/vvvvvv and when i "urlencode", i got the following: http%3A%2F%2Fmyspace.com%2Fvvvvv. The authontification is failed with the error 401. But, and it's quite fascinating, if pass the consumer key like this: http%3A%2F%2Fmyspace.com%2Fvvvvv, and after, urlencode, the server accepts it. Amazing, isn't it?!

By the way, i write on the Java.

Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers, Oleg.
