I found out what my problem was - I had entered the wrong password and because Gwibber had tried so much, Twitter locked the account for a certain amount of time. This probably meant that when I typed in different passwords to try them it further compounded the problem, and Gwibber gave no indication of an authentication error.
I found the problem in the Gwibber code, and have a patch attached, though it doesn't really fix the problem properly - it only works for really specific errors. Also, it doesn't differentiate between being denied because of a wrong password and being denied because the account is locked, although it does now show this in the log. ** Patch added: "Patch to show Twitter authentication errors (though probably needs work)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48090131/gwibber-twitter.patch -- Twitter doesn't work at all in Gwibber https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
