I'm trying to post tweets from my asp.net application using twitterizer2. When I tweet in english, it works. But when I try to tweet in arabic, it returns unauthenticated error.

What is the problem?

Twitterizer's implementation of OAuth (the security mechanism used by Twitter) doesn't fully support non-English characters. It's a known issue with the Twitterizer library.

  • Thanks for reply. Do you have any idea how to solve this issue? – Irfan TahirKheli Mar 25 '15 at 13:37
  • It would require modifications to the Twitterizier code, specifically the components that build the OAuth encrypted string. I struggled with this problem in my own Twitter library and eventually gave up because I wasn't able to crack it. You may want to look into using anther library that has solved this problem. – DWRoelands Mar 25 '15 at 13:46

  • You could look into TweetSharp, bu I do not know if it has the same issue or not. – DWRoelands Mar 25 '15 at 17:24
