linkedin

I have Pecl OAuth with PHP5 on a Debian box and I try to authenticate to LinkedIn. When calling;

OAuth->getAccessToken('https://api.lin...')\n#1

I get;

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'OAuthException' with message 'Invalid auth/bad request (got a 400, expected HTTP/1.1 20X or a redirect)'

I have tried it from scratch and I have tried the PHP API wrappers that are available and (ofcourse, because they use OAuth Pecl ext) have all the same problem.

I read somewhere it might be the timestamp on the server, but I synched that up with ntpdate; it does that quite often now, so the offset with the timeservers is almost 0.

What else can it be?

Thanks
