S4 version3 - twittertopiccount count 0

[Karthik Kambatla]

Hello

I am experiencing issues with running the twittertopiccount example in standalone mode. AFAIK, I followed the documentation - http://docs.s4.io/tutorials/getting_started.html - to the letter. However, the file /tmp/top_n_hashtags is not created. Also, the logs show that the event count is 0. I doubt if the TwitterFeedListener is actually pumping the data. Am I missing something basic here?

I have previously successfully run the twittertopiccount example on version 2 - both standalone and multiple machines.

Thanks much,

Karthik

It seems like you are not getting data from twitter. Try to sysout data read from twitter in TwitterFeedListener

Hi

We are having problems too (using the last available
TwitterFeedListener version).
The connection to twitter in twitter_feed_listener is refused,
although the username and password are legit.
Maybe it's an issue on twitter side?

I think Twitter removed Basic Auth :-)

So this example will not work in that case.

./zahoor

--
./zahoor

Web: http://zahoor.in

Twit: @jmohamedzahoor

According to my colleague, it works using
http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.json (not using https).

The solution: edit the class TwitterFeedListener and use "https://
stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.json" in variable
"urlString" ("s" is missing)
(private String urlString = "https://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/
sample.json";)

Twitter are now using "https".

Perhaps this fix should be rolled into v0.3.1, or have the documentation updated to show how to fix the java file.

After the file is fixed, run the gradlew steps again.

$ cd ~/s4project

$ find . -name TwitterFeedListener.java -print
./twittertopiccount/src/main/java/io/s4/example/twittertopiccount/TwitterFeedListener.java

$ cd twittertopiccount/src/main/java/io/s4/example/twittertopiccount

$ ls TwitterFeed*
TwitterFeedListener.java  TwitterFeedListener.java-ORIG

$ diff TwitterFeedListener.java TwitterFeedListener.java-ORIG
48c48
<     private String urlString = "https://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.json";
---
>     private String urlString = "http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.json";

Thanks for (re)pointing this out!

I just filed a ticket for that. Will fix for next release:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/S4-16
