i use twitterizer and mono 2.6 for linux with .NET 4.0 runtime in it. i have tried this code with visual studio in my windows, and worked perfectly. but when i tried to build it with mono i get this error. here is my code:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    string requestToken = OAuthUtility.GetRequestToken("my consumer key", "my consumer secret", "oob").Token;
}

Urquhart

Please start with trying out Mono 2.10.8, not the 3 year old version. – Employer

i did, and still get same error – Urquhart

Answer 1

I had the same problems so simply talking i choose to import all certificates using

mozroots --import --ask-remove 

and now I can login with twitter

Contiguous

It fixed the problem for me, can you please explain, what the statement do ? What is its relation with mono ? – Skeens

@Skeens It import ssl certificates into mono repository – Contiguous

Answer 2

See the Mono project wiki:

• FAQ Security on SSL/TLS; and

• Using Trusted Roots Respectfully article

They will show you how to add the missing x.509 certificates on your system (users) and how to best deal with such situations inside your own application (developers).

Boyt

Do this. Also, I haven't personally tested Twitterizer with mono, but I've relied heavily on mono users to debug, report issues, and submit patches. Please do the same. – Ethology

Same as below mozroots --import --ask-remove will add mozilla's default trusted certificates to mono's local trusted certificate list. – Maryalice

Answer 3

Works for setup of kvm with mono and vNext too - otherwise you can't do

kpm restore -s https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetvnext/

Many thanks for the tip!

Answer 4

From mono's documentation:

Note that if you are using a web application (i.e. not the current user) you must add the --machine option like this:

mozroots --import --ask-remove --machine

*you might want to run this with sudo
