Why?

What does "Read the exception description field for more information" mean or where can I find this?

The credentials are correct, it worked only once than it stopped working.

The credentials are correct, it worked only once than it stopped working.
There must be an issue with twitter app credential you provided.

Did you give all the permission to your app?
When did you create the app? Are you running too aggresive action via the app?

I think the APP is not well configured. But, i can't say this confidently as i am not twitter api expert and i am forwarding this to admin for troubleshooting.

But, please read these also, if you can solve your issue yourself. :)
