I've used two different python oauth libraries with Django to authenticate with twitter. The setup is on apache with WSGI.

It seems like this answer has been provided a bunch of times but in all of it, I'm still getting errors from the server and I'm sure it has to do with my code. I've tried HTTP, and HTTPConnection from httplib and both create quite different terminal outputs in terms of formatting/encoding so I'm not sure where the problem lies. Does an...
Hello. I'm trying to use httplib's HTTPSConnection for client validation, using a PKCS #12 certificate. I know the certificate is good, as I can connect to the server using it in MSIE and Firefox.

I've found that httplib.HTTPSConnection doesn't perform an automatic server certificate check. As far as I've understood the problem, I need to add that functionality manually, e.g. by subclassing this class as described here. As I'm using Python2.4.5 and an upgrade is not possible under the given circumstances, I cannot use the workaro...
