i have noted that if i manually delete %3A"og.likes"%7D&action_ref_map=%5B%5D at the end of the link, the desired page is opened.
Why is facebook adding this code at the end and what can be done to avoid this? Just to mention I run my website on joomla.
Please help
Facebook adds this for referral purposes so you can see the data in /analytics. As mentioned by #igy you need to check your CMS as it is not handling the params properly.
I had the same issue, I contacted my hosting provider and submitted a ticket, I have no idea what they did to fix this but it was sorted out pretty quickly. Something in the link may have been blacklisted or some combination of the '.' and the lenght of the link might have caused the issue. Contact your hosting provider for a solution.

I've created post-specific like buttons on my wordpress website. They appear to work on my site and record likers etc, but nothing posts to facebook. I've tried several wordpress plugins. and all gave the same result. Twitter is working just fine. Upon debugging in the facebook open graph, I get "Bad Response Code URL returned a bad HTTP response code." (more info in the debug link below). What am I missing? Thanks in advance!

Despite the page URL loading in the browser, they are loading with a status code of 500 - Internal Server Error; which Facebook will reject. Since you are using PHP, the fastest solution may be to turn error reporting on, and display errors on. Or take a look at your logs to see what's causing the 500 error.
You can see that your page quits outputting code are about line 328, which looks like it may be an error in the wordpress theme files somewhere (maybe single.php?).
Hope this helps.
The other reason would be, Facebook cannot access your webpage. probably because of your DNS entries or your server is behind a firewall for example your company LAN. Solution: Fix your DNS or Firewall blockages and make sure public social medias like Facebook has access to your sites.
I had the same issue, but after I disabled my cache plugin "W3 Total Cache" everything worked fine .
I have encountered a GraphAPIError: (#500) Message contains banned content problem today when I use GRAPH API (via python) to POST URLs (even post http://www.google.com failed, but if I post it directly through my facebook page, it works)as comments. It used to working correctly.
Does anyone encounter the same problem or know how to solve that?
Thank you.
For anyone else having this issue - seems that if an FB user who is NOT validated with FB (hasn't given FB their cell phone etc) comments on some posts, they can get a 500 error. Once validated the error doesn't happen

I'm trying to use the facebooke like-box for a FB Group I'm creating a website for. I'm getting the error below. Where is the mistake coming from ? Thanks

Could not retrieve the specified page. Please verify correct href was passed in.
Although Facebook encourages all it’s users to use “safe browsing” and therefor HTTPS when accessing the platform … the like button itself seems to be a little behind on that issue.
Try pointing your like button to http://www.facebook.com/groups/tapmichiana/ instead, the non-SSL version of your group’s page on Facebook – then it should work.
I am trying to implement facebook like box for my facebook page on my own site. I copied the code from http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/ (HTML5 or any other) and pasted on my site. Box appears with all the correct information bu when I click on like, I get an error message saying
"The page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/xxxxx/111111 could not be reached."
I've been trying to find a solution for this for hours but couldn't find anything. It's nothing to do with the privileges etc.
I also ran it through Object Debugger and it didn't come up with any problem.
Does anyone has any solution for this? I created the page today, does facebook needs time to parse/index my page before like box works?
Thanks in advance
Are there any demographic restrictions on your page that would prevent it being seen by somebody logged out of Facebook? Is it the published? Those are the two most common reasons for that error that I've seen
Ok, all of a sudden it started working. Haven't changed anything in the code. So I guess Like Box won't work if you install it on the same day you create the FB Page.
