Twitter MassFollow Python Script

« on: January 30, 2010, 07:18:43 AM »

Hey guys, how do I prevent the HTTP Error 403 Forbidden from happening when I run my python script for adding followers based on keyword search?

Thanks,

Don't think it's a Python issue so mush as perms on the machine ... does the Apache user have rights to R/W/E (755 at least) on the directory and that script?

Well there's only about a million reasons why that could happen, and I'd need more data to triage.

But simply: "Too many requests"
* Apache is overlimit and denying new requests
* You're using some kind of library with Python that has a limit
* You're connecting to a database and out of available handles
* You're reading/writing to files and two processes are colliding
* You've got some form of race condition that is being exacerbated by the load
* Your ISP has some kind of limit on processor utilization

I dunno meng. Need more than "It no workee."
