Dear group ,
I used the following code to download some tweets (1500)
library(twitteR)
library(ROAuth)
library(plyr)
library(stringr)
library(ggplot2)
## Windows users need to get this file
download.file(url="http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem",
destfile="cacert.pem")
requestURL <"https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token"
accessURL = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token"
authURL = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize"
consumerKey = "secret"
consumerSecret = "secret"
Cred <- oauthfactory$new(consumerkey="">
consumerSecret=consumerSecret,
requestURL=requestURL,
accessURL=accessURL,
authURL=authURL)
Cred$handshake(cainfo = system.file("CurlSSL", "cacert.pem",
package = "RCurl") )
registerTwitterOAuth(Cred)
save(Cred, file="twitter authentication.Rdata")

searchTwitter( "alhazm", n=1500 , cainfo="cacert.pem" )
But I got the following error message
In doRppAPICall("search/tweets", n, params = params, retryOnRateLimit
= retryOnRateLimit, :
500 tweets were requested but the API can only return 28
why ? and how I can Increase number of retreived tweets, many thanks
