Twitter::Error::Forbidden - Unable to verify your credentials

I'm using devise + omniauth and I can connect to twitter api correctly.

But when I try to use twitter gem, I have the following error in console :

"Twitter::Error::Forbidden - Unable to verify your credentials"

I have installed the gem and created an initializer at config/initializers/twitter.rb

Twitter.configure do |config|
    config.consumer_key = PKe41...
    config.consumer_secret = qETY.....
end

And I'm trying into a controller :

def twitter
    @twitter_home_timeline = Twitter.home_timeline
end
Solution

  • Ok, I found the answer... Keys in the initializer must be set with quotation marks :

    Twitter.configure do |config|
    config.consumer_key = 'PKe41...'
    config.consumer_secret = 'qETY.....'
end
