Clicking Facebook 'Like' Button (iFrame) throws Error - facebook

When clicking on the Facebook 'Like' button on my page (WordPress blog, single entry page)
my console shows the error:
NetworkError: 500 - https://www.facebook.com/plugins/like/connect?__a=1
I've debugged the page with the Facebook Object Debugger, and have eliminated any errors. I'm racking my brain and can't figure out what the issue is.
If it helps, When clicking the like button again to remove the like, the console shows:
NetworkError: 500 - https://www.facebook.com/plugins/like/disconnect?__a=1
I see there are a lot of people having issues with Facebook. Could this be related?

Facebook like button disappeared

Please help.
I want to add a facebook like button for my facebook page on my website, but I cannot do it because the fb like button does not show up.
When I go to the like button configurator https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button#configurator , and enter the url of my fb page in the 'URL to like', the like button does not show up. Even if I copy & paste the code generated from the like button configurator to my website, the like button does not show up on my website.
But if I enter a different facebook page in the 'URL to like', the like button shows up and everything works as expected.
I noticed this issue about 10 days ago.
Before that, there were no issues and the like button for my fb page was visible on my website and also in the like button configurator https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button#configurator.
I contacted facebook about this issue many time but they don't answer.
Why is my like button not visible anymore?
We had the same issue today. We recognized that the og:url didn´t match the data-href of the like button and so the button wasn´t shown at all (even though it was rendered) - This is also mentioned in the official documentation.
Maybe this helps someone else.
I'm currently investigating the capabilities of Facebook API, like/share/comment of public posts from a public pages, for a client. I also noticed this problem. I think that this is related to a fact that Facebook removed the option to like page posts without the page access token that must be granted to your app by a page owner. If you try to do it from the Facebook API you will get the following error:
"(#3) Publishing comments through the API is only available for page access tokens"
I was able to get like button for my page itself, but as soon as I enter the url to some of the page's posts, the button disappears. You shouldn't suppose to have problem with the share button, but if you try to use an integrated version of like+share button, if the like doesn't work, you will lose the share button too.
Here is (only) the share button Configurator:

Facebook Like button error

I'm having some problems with my like button. Used Open Graph Object Debugger and no errors were found.
The button still doesn't work.
When you click "Like" it will turn into a red text "error", saying "Sorry, this feature isn't available right now: An error occurred while processing this request. Please try again later."
Note: the likes came from the link I've posted on Facebook, share button is working.

Like button throwing error

Like button error since yesterday - URL could not be liked because it's been blocked.
i get this error when i click the like plugin from my actual app canvas page. although i can go to the actual app page and like the page by hitting the like button on that page.
This error started experiencing from yesterday. Any help will be much appreciated.
App page- https://www.facebook.com/pages/World-Footie-Manager-Play-Free-Football-Soccer/169765953131927
App canvas page ( where error occurs)- https://apps.facebook.com/worldfootballmanager/

Like button error - but not all pages

I have a Like button on my theatre pages. For example:
http://raleighlittletheatre.org/shows/11-12/crucible.html
Strangely many of them say the starter message (even though I know people that have Liked this page):
Be the first of your friends to recommend this.
When I click the Like button it reports an error "Error" and when I click it I get:
There was an error liking the page. If you are the page owner, please try running your page through the linter on the Facebook devsite and fixing any errors.
I ran the linter, but there are no errors other than a warning that my image is too small.
A couple of other pages also have this error, although I'm sure they didn't use to. However this page does not have the error and I am using the same code on them (all via a CMS):
http://raleighlittletheatre.org/shows/11-12/firecracker.html
Clearly I created an error that affects some pages, but not others. Ideas?
Even stranger, if I log off Facebook then I see that 93 or 27 or some non-zero number of people (at least some of which I'm friends with, I'm certain) like these pages.

Send button returning error codes, like button works fine

I have a like/send button that I've set up on a customer's home page. I have it pointed at their facebook profile page so that when people like them either from facebook or on their homepage, it's always liking the same thing.
Anyway, I've used the fb social plugins page to create the fbxml, and I'm having a problem with the send button. The like button works wonderfully, but the send button doesn't want to cooperate.
First, I had the button set up using "http://www.facebook.com/AFEDEWA" as the link to like/send. However, with the button(s) configured that way, when you click on Send you get an error message that says "The page at ttp://www.facebook.com/AFEDEWA could not be reached because the server returned status code 200."
So I did some digging on the 'net, and found some info that seemed to indicate that maybe the send button didn't like the alias / page name. I tried putting in the page id instead, and when I do that I get a different error: "The page at ttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=165721903513327 could not be reached."
(I removed the h in the front of the links in those messages because the board was complaining about too many links. But the actual error message has the http in full :) )
The link works either way if you c/p into your browser, and also works fine with the like button. It would appear that the send button has some issues? Maybe needs to handle redirects instead of returning a 200 OK message.... ?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. If you want to see the like/send button in action, this is the website it's set up on: http://www.coolersecurityadvisors.com
thx!
After checking the buttons on the upper right, I found an issue. It seems like you can not Like/Send URL's of real Facebook Pages using the Like/Send button. Facebooks URL debugger always comes up with the error "Facebook can not crawl itself".
If you just want that people share a link to your Facebook Page, simply create a file on your server, implement the OpenGraph Tags you want to show up on Facebook (title, image, etc.) and output this in case the Facebook crawler is visiting this site, if it's not the Facebook crawler, redirect the user to https://www.facebook.com/AFEDEWA
Fix up the 8 warnings from https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.coolersecurityadvisors.com%2F and I think that might help solve the problem.
