Hi,
I am getting the following error while trying to connect to twitter.com
Exception Type: error Exception Value:
(111, 'Connection refused')
Exception Location: /usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py in create_connection, line 514
Also, I am working behind proxy. How can I access twitter.com using oauth if I am working behind proxy?
thanks ashwin
