   Note: Your application must have a unique name.
3. Go to the Permissions tab of your application, and change the
   Access setting to "Read, Write and Access direct messages".
4. Go to the Keys and Access Tokens tab to view the consumer key
   and secret which you'll need to copy and paste below when
   prompted.

Press [Enter] to open the Twitter Developer site.

Can reproduce here. Probably an update to the twitter gem?

Having the same issue.

Same issue here, just installed t system-wide on OSX 10.11.6.

For anyone who is looking for a quick solution, you can try sferik/twitter-ruby#878 (comment)

It works for me.

[jorisvanzundert]

Had the same issue on ruby 2.5.0p0 (2017-12-25 revision 61468) [x86_64-darwin17], for me this fix sferik/twitter-ruby#878 (comment) worked by addressing the https://github.com/sferik/twitter api differently.

I cannot however estimate if this fix would mend the problem in general and in a proper way. Hope that a better informed maintainer can judge?

[devlato]

The issue still reproduces. Any way to fix that?

[epitron]

t works with v6.1.0 of the twitter gem, so I fixed it by running:

$ gem install twitter -v 6.1.0
$ gem uninstall twitter -v 6.2.0

The simplest upstream fix is to change t.gemspec's twitter dependency to ~> 6.1.0 instead of ~> 6.0. (Submitted a pull request with this change: #412)

[mitchellkrogza]

Thanks @epitron your simple solution worked a treat.

@sferik Would you mind merging the pull request? (#412) This gem has been in a broken state for a while.

Hey, that fix works for me. It should be noted that you also need rdoc as well. That's probably obvious to people who already know ruby, but it wasn't for me. :)
