using meteor's accounts-facebook, i get a url error - facebook

I set the url for my app as http://localhost:3000
and I get this error
Can't Load URL: The domain of this URL isn't included in the app's domains. To be able to load this URL, add all domains and subdomains of your app to the App Domains field in your app settings.
my app domain is empty, since fb doesnt let me set it to localhost:3000
I'm totally lost..

In the settings of your Facebook app, you need to add "localhost" as an App Domain, not "localhost:3000". You don't need to include the port with the hostname.

Facebook app: Cannot add localhost domain with my live server domain

Whenever I tried to add localhost domain with my live server domain in my facebook app domain it shows me error "App domains must match the domain of the Facebook Web Games URL (https), Mobile Site URL, Unity Binary URL, Site URL or Secure Page Tab URL. Please correct these domains: localhost".
Is it possible to add the localhost domain along with my live server domain?
A good way to solve this is to use a Test App: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/test-apps/
Test Apps have different settings, so you can easily use localhost without an additional platform as workaround.

Not a valid domain facebook on localhost

I cannot seem to run the facebook app on localhost. Whenever I try my domain, i get the error " App domains must match the domain of the facebook web games URL(https). Please connect these domains: localhost.
Your facebook app domain should be from App Url.
So change your App url to - http://localhost:port_num
Will work.

Meteor accounts-facebook not working on server

I have followed the this tutorial (http://bulenttastan.net/login-with-facebook-using-meteor-js/) to setup Meteors accounts-facebook package. The application worked fine while working on the local environment(localhost).
Now that I have hosted the app on my server I have the following configuration on my Facebook Apps Dashboard.
But when I try to login from my application I receive the following error message:
"URL Blocked: This redirect failed because the redirect URI is not whitelisted in the app’s Client OAuth Settings. Make sure Client and Web OAuth Login are on and add all your app domains as Valid OAuth Redirect URIs."
My app is hosted on the port '3002' so, I have set the port along with the domain name on the Site URL section on facebook and with respect to the site URL I have also set the redirect URI as given on the image.
Thanks in Advance.
Found a Fix! Setting the ROOT_URL environment variable did the trick for me.

Setting up Facebook App Domain as IP Address

I have a login with facebook on my website which I was testing locally on localhost. Now I have put it on a server and I am trying to change the facebook app configuration so I could make the login. Before I had:
App Domain:
localhost
Site URL:
http://localhost/
Mobile URL:
http://localhost/
Now I am trying to change localhost for my website IP address: 107.170.**.**7:8776, so first I set the Site URL and Mobile URL to http://107.170.**.**7:8776/ but when I try to set the App domain to 107.170.**.**7:8776 I get an exclamation saying:
This must be derived from Canvas URL, Secure Canvas URL, Unity Binary URL, Site URL, Mobile Site URL, Page Tab URL or Secure Page Tab URL. Check and correct the following domains: 107.170.**.**7:8776
What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance.
Facebook appears to require a valid domain instead of an IP address. Not sure why, as they don't mention this in the facebook developer docs anywhere (from what I can tell)
More info:
facebook Error App Domain: [IP Address] is not a valid domain.?

Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration

I've been testing my app using my company's domain (which has ssl installed) and works like a charm.
now, I want this app to have its own domain, server and SSL certificate. I purchased a Godaddy SSL certificate(Standard (Turbo) SSL) and asked my hosting to install it, which they did and seems to be working ok...
now when I change the Facebook App settings to my new server, it just fails to load, and the console just outputs "Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains. "
Im completely lost on what to do... the settings are like this
Im loading FB using the facebook-actionscript-api 1.8.1
Namespace: myfbapp
App domains: myfbapp.com www.myfbapp.com
Sandbox: disabled
Canvas URL: http://www.myfbapp.com
Secure c url: https://www.myfbapp.com
needed to get a dedicated IP for my game and attach the SSL to it
