I’ve recently been working on the backend for a project which revealed a conflict between Zend_Service_Amazon_S3 and Zend_Service_Twitter.
The issue caused pushing content to Zend_Service_Amazon_S3 to fail with 401 errors if the call was made after a call to post a twitter status update with Zend_Service_Twitter. It appeared to be because both of these extend Zend_Service_Abstract which shares an instance of Zend_Http_Client.
Work-a-round:
Around line 409 of Zend/Service/Amazon/S3.php there is a line which gets the current instance of Zend_Http_Client:
$client = self::getHttpClient();
Changing this line to:
$client = new Zend_Http_Client();
Fixes the problem. I’m sure there is probably a more graceful workaround for this problem; but this one certainly fixes the conflict between these two services.
