api.user_timeline not working anymore

[Enrico]

Hi all,

my browser crashed while sending this message the first time, so I apologise if it's a double post.

I was using tweepy v2.1 with no issues until 3 days ago. In particular everytime I call the api.user_timeline

with a Cursor, it ends up with an exception, no matter what arguments I pass to it. So I simplified my

code to dig into the bug until I came up with the simplest possible case, that is:

                for status in tweepy.Cursor(self.api.user_timeline).items():

                  print status

And I get the following exception (it doesn't matter if I pass to the function an id, user_id, screen_name

or whatnot, same thing goes if I use pages()) as soon as the code hits the Cursor:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    File "/Users/.../twitter_data.py", line 253, in get_timeline

        for status in tweepy.Cursor(self.api.user_timeline).items():

    File "/Users/.../anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tweepy/cursor.py", line 152, in next

        self.current_page = self.page_iterator.next()

    File "/Users/.../anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tweepy/cursor.py", line 100, in next

        self.max_id = data.max_id

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'max_id'

I also ran the test suites provided with tweepy on 3 different tokens, so I don't get rate limited, 

with full read/write access:

Do you have any idea of what's going on? Can you please advise me?

Thank you,

Best regards.
