After authentication of facebook login/pwd, I get a dialog box says "install/cancel" instead of "allow/don't allow" App permission.? - facebook

After following as per Facebook-sdk instructions for android app i get the dialog box saying install/cancel instead of allow/don't allow . I tried changing App id and used other user's credentials for logging too. But still i get an error:
Update:i tried changing an app setting develope.facebook.com->Application->Advanced->disabled enhanced auth dialog. still no resolution.Any help?

The text changes for various reasons; whether it's the first time the user is using that app or not for example - this is expected, there's about 5 or 6 possible button text combinations - i think install/cancel is the one seen for new installations

Adding facebook custom tabs using URL method, no longer working

we can still add some of our custom apps to customers pages.
every now and then we get a content error when using the URL method as below
http://www.facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=xxxx&next=ScriptURLxxxx/exec?tabpage=TABNAME
This works 99% of the time, although a new onboarding we receive the error "Content is not available right now", I then tried this same method on another page and worked fine.
Below is a method I found on Facebook Dev page. Although for the life of me cannot get it to authenticate when running the Curl commands with correct variables.
Has anyone had this whilst adding Facebook Custom App Tabs
Thanks

Misconfigured App on Facebook but no errors?

I am trying to set up a tab with a link to a contact form from my site on Facebook.
I developed the 'app' through the developers site and have set up the page tab.
I've saved the app and it saves it fine (displaying a message saying changes were saved but it might take some time to propagate across all servers.)
Well I waited an hour and I still can't add the tab to my page. I tried locating the app page directly using the namespace, but I get an error message saying:
"[My App] cannot be displayed because the app is misconfigured."
I don't know how it is misconfigured? There are no errors when saving, so I don't know what the issue is or how to go about fixing it. There are no problems with the app that I can see... how am I supposed to know what's wrong with it?
All it is is a page tab. I've put the link to the page tab in, I don't have a secure page (https) so I have left this box blank but I don't know what to do now.
Any ideas how I can find out in what way it is 'misconfigured'?
This error usually occurs when you try to view the App Center page for the app when the app doesn't have the 'App Details' tab settings populated.
So instead of:
https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/APP_NAMESPACE
Make sure you are loading:
https://apps.facebook.com/APP_NAMESPACE
That page will display hints (if you are admin or developer of the app) on what you are missing.
And, adding to the answer already given by #Donn Lee, which pointed to the right way, you must also ADD A PLATFORM in settings, in https://developers.facebook.com/apps/APP-ID/settings/

Facebook login social plugin stopped working

Last week suddenly the XFBML login button stopped working on our site. Instead of showing a nice FB login button, it just shows the button text. In Firebug, I'm getting an error:
TypeError: k.root is null
Strangely, the problem occurs on our production environment, test environment and my own development environment. The production environment hasn't been updated or changed for quite some time so it's not code changes on our end. All three environments also connect to separate Facebook apps, each with a different appID, so it also can't be a (accidental) configuration error with the Facebook app.
Does anyone know if it's perhaps possible that this is an issue on Facebook's end? They did do a compatibility breaking update on 5th of September, but as far as I can see, the changes are not related to the login button.
Anyone know what could possibly cause this?
This was a bug that would occur if you called FB.init prior to document.body being defined, (as in the HEAD), this has now been resolved.
I started to face this issue last week as well. I managed to solve with one of the options below:
1) The app's 'App Domains' was misconfigured (it should be a domain name and not a full URL):
Source: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/225729134220754
or
2) Just replace the div (containing class fb-login-button) with a regular button to call FB.login, and all the things will start to work again.

Facebook like button gives an error: This page is either disabled or not visible to the current user

The like button on my site was working fine and had more than 270 recommendations but suddenly they disappeared and when I click on the button, it gives an error:
This page is either disabled or not visible to the current user.
I checked my URL on the debug tool but it gives me the same result each time that appears to be fine.
I have no idea what is the problem or if my site has been blocked by them.
How can I check if its blocked or find the problem?
My URL is: iran.us
Check this link: http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Firan.us
As for your counts, you specified
http://iran.us (http://graph.facebook.com/http://www.iran.us)
and the counts you're looking for are under
http://www.iran.us/index.php (http://graph.facebook.com/http://www.iran.us/index.php)
The fix for this is your plugin code.
Add data-href="http://www.iran.us/index.php" to the plugin code and it will be back to the old like count. You will not be able to move the 6 current ones over though.

Facebook Connect settings for popup dialog

I'm in the process of implementing Facebook Connect for my site, everything seems to be working fine so far except that the look of my popup dialog upon clicking on "Login with Facebook" is totally different from what I see on other sites like say Posterous.
I'm only getting a popup with the msg "Do you want to log in to with your Facebook account?" followed by the 2 login fields whereas Posterous has a more detailed dialog box with 2 images and more descriptive text.
Am i missing out on some configuration settings here or?
Thanks
The text you're seeing is due to the new Facebook data permissions and permissions dialog changes that will go into effect on June 1st. The new settings also has different text for the dialog when you're logged into Facebook but not yet connected to the site:
[SITE_NAME] is requesting permission
to do the following:
Access my public information
Includes name, profile picture, list
of friends and all other public parts
of my profile
You can switch your app to the old / current Connect dialogs to see the difference by going to the Migrations tab when editing your application and setting "New Data Permissions" to Disabled. But on June 1st, you'll be automatically switched to the new version if you haven't already enabled it.
The new dialogs' text is definitely scarier to the user - I'm a little surprised Facebook is changing the text to this since they always say they want to make connecting as appealing as possible for the user. But we don't have a choice.
