That is the request token you are trying to get. A common mistake when getting the request token is using the wrong key when signing the request.

Your HMAC-SHA1 key when signing all requests should look like this:

CONSUMER_SECRET + "&" + TOKEN_SECRET

And since you do not have a token secret yet, the key should be CONSUMER_SECRET + "&"
