Could be due to this

Are you still getting the Hangup error?

I just installed rainbowstream and the hangup error made me think it wasn't working.

[ghost]

@stephenwithav Yeah, I have been seeing that. I have not tested in a few hours, let me check and get back to you.

edit: Yes it's still happening and it makes sense. Once you've passed a certain number of follows the text would scroll off the screen faster than you could read it. If you run home $n you'll see $n tweets from your feed.

edit2: still getting the hangup even after pausing the stream. I switched to streaming a list of 60 users but it doesn't stream their tweets & keeps giving the Hangup message.

[stephenwithav]

Thank you for the update. I'm receiving hangups fairly quickly, frequently within a minute before anything is streamed.

I'm on Debian Testing, by the way.

i can confirm this too, even with -to 300 (timeout 300sec) it hangs up after few seconds, it did work fine before tho
-edit: i made a new key for my app, and atm it works again

[ghost]

@violetina @dtvd I've tried making a new key multiple times. I am still receiving the Hangup message.

[orakaro]

My client is working without problem. Twitter API status seems backed to normal: https://dev.twitter.com/overview/status

Are you guy still having hangup error ?

[ghost]

@dtvd Hi,

Yes, I am still seeing the Hangup error.

[stephenwithav]

@dtvd still experiencing here, too.

Would you object to a PR that reconnects on Hangup?

[maikell]

I can confirm this bug on Centos 7, Fedora 24 and Debian Jessie. "Hangup" message after Friday.

[stephenwithav]

I re-authorized the app, initially received a hangup, but now it's working for me.

[maikell]

I can confirm. Nice work!

[maikell]

It worked for about 15 minutes :)
"There seems to be a connection problem.
You might want to check your proxy settings (host, port and type)!"

[stephenwithav]

Mine is still going strong. I'm afraid to touch it. 😨

[stephenwithav]

Switched themes, now Hangups again.

[ghost]

@stephenwithav @maikell I've messaged twitter.com/@Support about this. I didn't hear anything back. We might want to ping them again.

[ghost]

Hi I am in https://gitter.im/DTVD/rainbowstream if anyone would like to co-ordinate figuring out this error

:)

[orakaro]

Thanks @ManasB @stephenwithav and @maikell for reporting. As far as I know this is result of TCP connection break with Twitter Stream API. Currently I can not reproduce this problem but if possible can you guy try and give result of following steps ?

• A screenshot when Hangup
• Output of g["traceback"] when Hangup. You can type this directly into RS's console.
• Is other client works well with stream ?
• Try to revoke access of RS from your account's Twitter setting page and start RS again.

@dtvd

Hi. Yesterday, I tried revoking & re-authorizing rainbowstream. That did not work.

Seems to be functional for now. I will update if necessary.

[maikell]

Is it an idea to change the application name and re-authorize the application? This is so we can check if Twitter actively blocks this CLI application. Will dig around in the code today to try out.

[orakaro]

You can fork and clone a version of RS yourself. Just need to grab new Application’s API key and secret. See "Development" section of Readme

[maikell]

Ok, this is strange. It seems to work again in Debian Jessie, however it failed on me this morning in Fedora 24. I'll reinstall it tonight and report back if it works.
