I get 401 Your authentication failed, my application has worked for 2 years.
-
I have an old link request application which i have restarted. I have regenerated the api key, however i get 401 Your authentication failed on request.
The test signature works and returns my account no.
Here is my request:
I have replaced my memberID and signature with dummy data to protect my credentials. Is my request string correct?
Also where can i get the expiry parameter?

We had this issue when we moved from staging to production. Worked fine on staging, but not on production.
It ended up the clock on one of our production servers was 6 minutes behind. This caused the expiration to error out. Immediately we increased the expiration, and ultimately set the proper time on the server.
This resolved all issues relating to the following error:
401 Error - Your authentication has expired. Re-send your authentication and try again. For more information on signed authentication, see: http://apiwiki.moz.com/signed-authentication

I have solved this issue

MOZ Versus HUBSPOT??? If We Discontinue MOZ Subscription and Get HUBSPOT, Anything Lost?
How does Hubspot compare with MOZ? Doe it provide similar features or is the functionality very different? Is Hubspot complementary to MOZ or could it be used as a substitute? If we stopped our MOZ subscription and subscribed to Hubspot would we lose anything? Thanks, Alan

Getting rid of duplicate content
Hi everyone, I'm a newbie and at the moment don't know very much about SEO. I have a problem with some of my campaigns where i keep getting a report with either Duplicate Page and/or Duplicate Content errors. I have no idea how to rectify this error, remove it or fix it on the relevant websites. Can anyone please help explain how to do this, maybe step by step? I really appreciate your views and opinions! Regards, Hugh

Why am I getting an access error when creating my first campaign?
The exact error message is: The change you wanted was rejected. Maybe you tried to change something you didn't have access to. I checked the Word Count and I am definitely <300 keywords. I have also made sure that the Branded Keywords are entered 1 per entry form. My cookies are clear and there should be no issue with my browser.

Report notification emails (SEOmoz PRO Application ) --- Is it possible to customise the sender email address and/or email signature
The ranking reports are great but is there any way of changing the sender email address to be our own, and have our signature appearing at the bottom of the email notifications? We'd really like to send them direct to our customers and save some time double handling.

How to handle 2 domains pointing to the same server.
My client has 2 domains which point to the same sever. eg a.com and b.com both point to the same place. For now a.com has better seo but the client wants to switch to using b.com more. Im guessing 301 redirects will not work in this case. How would I handle this? If i'm forced to manage both domains, what is the best practice for monitoring in seomoz pro. Should i set up a.com as a competitor?
