Post new tweet problems

Hi

Just started working with twitter4j library, but for some reason i cant get the simplest thing to work…
I suspect it has something to do with outdated code, using the 3.0.6 version of the library.
if so, how should i correct it?

import twitter4j.Twitter;
import twitter4j.TwitterException;
import twitter4j.TwitterFactory;
import twitter4j.auth.OAuthAuthorization;
import twitter4j.conf.ConfigurationBuilder;

public class TwitterAPI
{
private final String ACCESS_TOKEN ="***************";
private final String ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = “***************”;
private final String CONSUMER_KEY = “***************”;
private final String CONSUMER_SECRET = “***************”;

public static void main(String[] args) throws TwitterException
{

	
	
	ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
	builder.setOAuthAccessToken("***************");
	builder.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret("***************");
	builder.setOAuthConsumerKey("***************");
	builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret("***************");
    OAuthAuthorization auth = new OAuthAuthorization(builder.build());
    Twitter twitter = new TwitterFactory().getInstance(auth);
	try {
		twitter.updateStatus("#HELLO WORLD!");
	} catch (TwitterException e) {
		System.err.println("Error occurred while updating the status!");
		return;
	}
    System.out.println("Successfully updated the status.");


}

}

Changed the code a little bit, apparently twitter is forcing the use of SSL/HTTPS nowdays, and this line of code solved the issue for the most ppl, but i still get the same errors.
builder.setUseSSL(true);

import twitter4j.Twitter;
import twitter4j.TwitterException;
import twitter4j.TwitterFactory;
import twitter4j.auth.OAuthAuthorization;
import twitter4j.conf.ConfigurationBuilder;

public class TwitterAPI
{

public static void main(String[] args) throws TwitterException
{
	ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
	builder.setUseSSL(true);
	builder.setOAuthAccessToken("***************");
	builder.setOAuthAccessTokenSecret("***************");
	builder.setOAuthConsumerKey("***************");
	builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret("***************");
    OAuthAuthorization auth = new OAuthAuthorization(builder.build());
    Twitter twitter = new TwitterFactory().getInstance(auth);
	try 
	{
		 twitter.updateStatus("HELLO WORLD!");
	} catch (TwitterException e) {
		System.err.println("Error occurred while updating the status!");
		return;
	}
    System.out.println("Successfully updated the status.");
}

}
