oauth_problem=consumer_key_rejected using Scribe library

Question

I registed for a Yahoo Messenger SDK api and plugged-in the consumer key/sercret into this code:

https://github.com/fernandezpablo85/scribe-java/blob/master/src/test/java/org/scribe/examples/YahooExample.java

However, I'm getting this error:

Exception in thread "main" org.scribe.exceptions.OAuthException: Response body is incorrect. Can't extract token and secret from this: 'oauth_problem=consumer_key_rejected'
    at org.scribe.extractors.TokenExtractorImpl.extract(TokenExtractorImpl.java:41)
    at org.scribe.extractors.TokenExtractorImpl.extract(TokenExtractorImpl.java:27)
    at org.scribe.oauth.OAuth10aServiceImpl.getRequestToken(OAuth10aServiceImpl.java:52)
    at com.yahoodemo.YahooExample.main(YahooExample.java:28)

I'm pretty sure that the consumer key/secret is correct because I can get the 'RequestToken' using the same key/secret with a generic HTTP GET request.

Is this a bug in the Scribe library or it's something else?

have you tried enabling the debug flag? have you contacted Yahoo! forums? — Pablo Fernandez

The solution from Nagendra worked for me but don't forget to refresh the Yahoo Project page as both the key and the secret code are changed after editing the permissions.
