Unable to get application properties. Confirm both apikey and secret.

With that particular message on the edit page, error log shows: "Failed to log into facebook app as user fbu_any". Location and referrer URL is http://www.phoenixhomes.com/node/add/fb-app

Dave,

I downloaded latest upgrade yesterday and my code doesn't even match your difference

  if (!isset($cache[$fb_app->apikey])) {
    try {
      $fb = fb_api_init($fb_app, FB_FBU_ANY);
      $props = $fb->api_client->admin_getAppProperties(array_keys($props_map));
    } catch (Exception $e) {

You have an extra condition wrapping the "try{}"

Updated - no error message in the logs. Now we need to figure out why there is a problem with the API key :)

I get the same error. checked everything above, made changes to facebook php. my log error only states " Failed to log into facebook app as user fbu_any"......patch(on facebook php) did not seem to make any differance. tried to apply patch to fb_app.module but I get parse error.

Not sure what to do next with this, as I'm still learning, but I'm more than happy to share info, if it's helpful.

i have this problem too. however, there is nothing in my log.

Do I need to submit my app to the directory? I hope not. i am still working on it :)

I put the debug code in:

1. Called facebook.admin.getAppProperties show in php:

{"about_url":"","application_name":"testred","edit_url":"","post_install_url":"","uninstall_url":"","callback_url":"http:\/\/mysite.com","canvas_name":"testred"}

what is used to verify?

I even reset my key.

I would love to get a page up ASAP.

Dave,

I got a few things.

1. This is the error that was in the log:

Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/html/sites/all/modules/fb/facebook-platform/php/facebookapi_php5_restlib.php:82) in /var/www/html/sites/all/modules/fb/facebook-platform/php/facebook.php on line 335.

2. This is the object output:

I put it in and this is what I get

label- does fb check this against something in my app?
what is fb_app_data? nothing was returned.

recasting $props as an object does not work. I get the debug output
and a white screen

is this supposed to be this way?

function fb_app_validate_fb_app() {
//dpm(func_get_args(), 'fb_app_validate_fb_app');
}

it is used in line 175 of fb_app.module
// Now we define the form elements specific to our node type.

$form['fb_app'] = array('#tree' => TRUE,
'#weight' => -4,
'#validate' => array('fb_app_validate_fb_app' => arra\
y()),
);

I don't know if it has any relevance at all, but I thought I'd ask :)

this is (has potential) to be a kick a#s module! Looking forward to getting it completely working so I can take it through it's paces.

Upgraded to new version 2/8/09. The change breaks my install. I get the white screen.

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/fb/fb_app.m...

1. old install that was working
once I replaced the three lines- white screen
once I reverted back- fine (still has original error)
require once was in settings.php file as prescribed

2. clean install
installed and white screen if I put "require once in my settings file".
If i commented it out, then white screen goes away but original error is still there

EDIT UPDATE: THIS IS FIXED!!!!!

The items i got below no longer apply.

Add this to settings.php:
$conf['fb_api_file'] = 'sites/all/modules/fb/facebook-platform/php/facebook.php';
require_once "sites/all/modules/fb/fb_settings.inc";

Now I have a new issue actually related to the overall thread:
Now I get Failed to get application properties from Facebook: Invalid API key 101

I set debug to true in settings.php file per troubleshooting instructions:
: Called facebook.admin.getAppProperties, show Params | XML | SXML | PHP

Array
(
[properties] => ["about_url","application_name","edit_url","post_install_url","uninstall_url","callback_url","canvas_name"]

I placed this as per #13 above
dpm(array('fb_app' => $fb_app, 'props' => $props, 'fb' => $fb, 'cache' => $cache), 'fb_app_get_app_properties values');

this is a reply to #22:

Ok.. this is weird. it was a conflict with Og_vocab

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare custom_url_rewrite() in sites/all/modules/og_vocab/og_vocab.module on line 16

http://drupal.org/node/275665

so i just deactivated it.

Noted that this is listed as "fixed" I've been following along a bit, and I've updated to the revised module. But I still have the same issue. Double checked all API,secret, etc. info. still get the "Unable to get application properties. Confirm both apikey and secret." Pardon my ignorance if I've missed something obvious.

Thanks dave,
noted and appreciate the support. I was thinking this must be somthing obscure as I've been following the posts pretty closely and doing what has been done so far. I'm running this on apache2 with PHP 5.2.4 built on Ubuntu. According to my phpinfo. I have json installed and enabled. So if I'm understanding this correctly. My php installation may be returning an Array in some functions that I may want to be an Object? Or am I backwords in my thinking on that one. If so....whats the fix.

this is what I get. Interesting I'm getting nothing for 'props' 'fb' or 'cache'.............

Pardon my ignorance, but could someone explain how to change the DPM call, as referenced in #'s 13 and 29? Thanks.

CBFPLC,

Not sure if this will help you or not, check out post #9, it tells you where to put it. open up the fb_app.module and place it (the dpm) right after the fb_app_get_app_properties($fb_app) line in the fb_app_validate() section. hope that helps. next time you submit your facebook application, you should get the debug output.

butteryak

Had the same issue.
The fix was - to enable openssl extention for php.

I have read the README.txt from top to bottom!

I've searched through all instances of this issue and one of the closed threads said that facebook had fixed the issue, but it is coming up for me.

This is the output of $url for me {"error_code":"104","error_msg":"Incorrect signature","request_args":[{"key":"method","value":"admin.getAppProperties"},{"key":"properties","value":"about_url,application_name,edit_url,authorize_url,uninstall_url,canvas_name,callback_url,connect_url"},{"key":"access_token","value":""},{"key":"api_key","value":"###################"},{"key":"format","value":"json-strings"}]}

I have double checked everything from the API key, secret etc, and still get that problem with this error:

Unable to get application properties. Confirm both apikey and secret.

1) Downloaded latest PHP sdk files
2) Using latest module Beta 1

Subscribing
I'm beginning to think that it could come from something else than Facebook or any fb.module. The latest Facebook API was released to be able to cope with some changes in the OAuth library…
(I had Facebook Connect on a website, with version 6.x-2.0-rc2, and all settings were retrieved without problem – that was last week. But I tried to get these settings once again yesterday, I got disconnected from Drupal – yes, I got the Drupal message "You can't access this page", and I had to reconnect.)

[Edit] (Shall next one to post set "active" again?)

I was able to use 6.x-2-dev and make it work again, but would rather use the latest version!

Sorry, I did not want to open a new thread, I think there are enough on this already…

I uninstalled the last version I had (3.0-beta1) to install 3.0-beta3. Read scrupulously the readme for this version and applied carefully the instructions that are in.

I have latest version of Facebook PHP SDK in sites/all/libraries/facebook-php-sdk (is there a message displayed if any fb module can't find it?), and to be sure, I put the include "sites/all/libraries/…" line in my settings.php.

Checked thrice. Still same problem.

Could it come from my site, which base_url is like http://www.example.com/subfolder ?

I'm desperate to find a solution, as since I upgraded to version 3, I can't create any new app – and I now can't create the first one either. As it's the only one I currently need…

Thanks in advance

I have checked API and secret keys, entered them in corresponding fields, even tried to invert them : in this case, I receive a 101 Error (invalid API key). Also, I tried to reset the secret key.
By checked thrice, I mean that I read as many times the readme, and checked the settings said to set.

Satus report : Drupal for Facebook full green. Drupal for Facebook Devel too. Facebook PHP SDK found.
In the watchdog, nothing.
I can't see anything such as queries to Facebook as you tell I should in the first post!?

OpenSSL is activated on my server.

As to migrations, I left them by defaul, i.-e. everything disabled.

Server conf : dmu28.infomaniak.ch/phpinfo.php (I hope you can access to it without being logged)

I tried enabling the JSON relative and the secure URL thing migrations : nada.
I set those parameters this morning (~10 am CET), just tried once again (~4:30 pm CET) whenever there just was problem on propagating changes. I don't think I needed to enable the two last ones, as they're made for canvas pages, and I don't use them, but I just enabled those. I shall come and edit here the result, or post if fixed.
Is there somewhere I could see some more debug messages?

Maybe I shall try and use the OAuth library instead of the Drupal module. I'll try that tomorrow.

[Edit] Enablig canvas pages migration settings did not solve the problem.

Nothing special in the PHP log.

Is it normal that the new Facebook API has only two files in /src, as the one I had before the 7th October had some 4 files and a /jsonwrapper directory?

Sorry for replying that late.
I have the same files, so that looks OK.
Another user told me it comes from the server configuration, as he experiences the same problem on the same infomaniak.ch host.. I'll be waiting for more info, and come back to give them here.

I am running PHP 5.1.6 and was running into the "Confirm API Key and Secret" error. I was able to resolve the error by removing the quotes around the JSON string returned by facebook. json_decode, at least the extension I am running for PHP 5.1, couldn't handle the enclosing quotes.

I have the latest dev building of Drupal for Facebook and the latest Facebook SDK, as well as all four migrations enabled.

This patch also worked for me, using the 3.0-beta3 version of fb.module, on Debian 4.0 (haven't gotten around to switching yet).

Still have the same problem with rc1. I tried the patch in #48 but it didn't help.
This is server info: Apache/2.2.15 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.15 OpenSSL/0.9.7a DAV/2 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_jk/1.2.28 PHP/5.2.13

Strangely on my other server it works just fine. This is info from other server, hope it helps:

Apache/1.3.41 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.26.1a mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.31 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 PHP-CGI/0.5

I traced the problem to wrongly installed Open SSL. Recompiling it solved the problem.

Hello everyone,

Replying late due to start of term and end of traineeship, I could apply the patch only today, and it works. I could set the parameters, and get the others from FaceBook without problems.

I set this as fixed, as I was the one who opened this thread again, and unless I'm mistaken, there's no longer an unsolved issue there. If there is, I hope Dave Cohen won't kill you if you set this active.
