I'm living in Vietnam now. As I known and tested, FB is blocked now. Therefore I have to use static IP for facebook (60.254.175.42). Using this method, I can log into Facebook from WEB browser without any problem. But when I use OAuth protocol to integrate FB into my website (ex. allows user use FB account to log into my website), I always receive the message 'The requested URL "/oauth/authorize?client_id=152190004803645&response_type=code&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Ffb&scope=publish_stream,email,user_birthday,user_location", is invalid.
Reference #9.26affe3c.1328519733.956d48'.
Please advice,
Thanks
Ensure that you using full URL and no just part of it before redirecting user, full URL should look like this:
http://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth/authorize?client_id=152190004803645&response_type=code&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Ffb&scope=publish_stream,email,user_birthday,user_location
Also check that you defined localhost as App Domain in your application settings.

The instructions from Janrain for social login provider setup conflict with the hint within the error message from the Facebook https response. Details follow.
Error screen when testing Facebook from Janrain; note that same error happens in any browser such as Firefox, Chrome if you test the sign-in widget.
Error Text from Facebook:
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: (snip).
Based on the hints from the Janrain Facebook Provider Setup wizard, I have set the website to the URL on rpxnow (i.e. definitely not my web site).
What URL(s) should then be entered into Basic and/or Advanced Settings such that Facebook can process the login? I have tried using the rpxnow URLs and my own web site URLs. Either of 2 things happens regardless of whether I include https:// or start from the subdomain of any combination of names. Either Facebook will not save the details on Basic App Domain and gives the above error, or Facebook will save the details but then gives the error in the first screenshot above.
I do not see how this can ever work because Facebook wants a match on the domain and rpxnow will never be the domain that I use to invoke the sign-in.
For completeness, I will show my Facebook settings, so it will be obvious that they do not match the current Janrain Setup Guide for Facebook.
Basic Settings
Is the Namespace relevant? Better to leave blank? Does it need to match something within Janrain?
Advanced Settings
I could believe that something has to be done to allow cross-domain access. Does anyone have this working with a new Janrain account (3 weeks old) and a new Facebook developer account (old Facebook account, new developer app)?
Replying as an answer so I can attach a picture.
I have a feeling this might be something to do with Facebook's impending changes to their app security (https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2017/12/18/strict-uri-matching/ ). It appears that you need to add the Valid OAuth redirect URI for any new API v2.11 apps now (not after March). We were already planning to address this before March but we will have to update sooner.
For your Facebook app you will have to set up the "Valid oAuth redirect URIs" similar to the following screen shot, just replace "pbjanraintest" with whatever your Engage app name is:
Sorry for all the trouble you have had. It's hard to keep up with these providers when the messaging doesn't align with what their apps and api's are actually doing.
I just received the same error this week. Leave off the https:// in the OAuth redirect URIs box.
I got my app removed by Facebook last week.
Now I'm trying to build a new one correcting the problems, but I always get an error authenticating the user.
SECURITY WARNING: Sharing the above URL with anyone is the same as
sharing your Facebook password with them - it will give them access to
your Facebook account. Despite what you may have been promised, you
will not receive cash, a gift card, or free airline tickets in
exchange for this URL.
I'm calling the API this way:
https://www.facebook.com/dialog/oauth?
client_id=MY_APP_ID
&display=popup
&redirect_uri=http://www.my-url.com/823/
&scope=user_about_me
My Facebok app config is:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/s9WSW.png
I'm trying to use the same domain used in that removed app.
Does Facebook has a domain blacklist? I can't create a new app with that domain anymore (in the example "www.my-url.com/823/")?
Or am I just missing something in the settings?
Yes , they probably block all the information related to your App and website.
Today I was trying to add Facebook features to my site. It's hosted on 0fees.net.
On 0fees.net, I uploaded index.html to my web host, for example mysite.0fees.net. This works, and the page opens fine when I access the URL.
Then, on Facebook, I created my Facebook application, and set the 'Website with Facebook Login' setting as http://mysite.0fees.net/, pressed Save Changes. But I got the error message,
Error Site URL is not a valid URL.
When I try set another URL (for example mysite.1fees.net) the application saved fine.
I do not want to change provider, so how can I set mysite.0fees.net?
When trying to post the link http://0fees.net/ on Facebook, you’ll see a message that you can not do so because the domain is blocked for being spammy. So you’ll have to use another domain, I’m afraid. (That’s the problem with cheap webhosting where you’ll only get a subdomain – let one user do something stupid under that main domain, and all other’s using it will get punished as well.)
Ok so I am wanting to add the ability for users to use their facebook accounts to register to a site. I have gone through the dev files and various tutorials online. The issue is that no matter what method I follow I have yet been able to get it to work.
I have tried using source from here as well:
http://www.masteringapi.com/tutorials/how-to-use-facebook-registration-plugin-as-your-registration-system/15/
Is there some dependency that I need for the site, some other system for facebook to load right?
Here is the test version of the site: http://ohmsgaming.com/Misc/nstdt/v2/
Your page show an error like "'redirect_uri' should be an absolute url."
Use absolute Uri in redirect Url field of request query to fix the issue.
You can use Open Authentication technique to set up authentication system in your site. And once the user is authenticated you will get the publicly shared information of the user. This information can be registered in website at first login.
I successfully implemented the same in http://www.nowrunning.com using brickred's social auth code.

I'm having a problem with my Facebook application, I got an error like this.
API Error Code: 191
API Error Description: The specified URL is not owned by the application
Error Message: redirect_uri is not owned by the application.
What are the best solutions for this error?
I assume you have the Website option active in your app settings.
Did you fill the site url there?
Thing is, if you own the site.com domain and specify it for your app, you will not be able to use a redirect url to othersite.com after login, or even domain.site.com. I think you need to specify if you are going to use subdomains.
Anyway, what sort of app are you trying to build? Is it a Canvas App? Does this error appear when you try to ask for permissions or login the user? In this case, just fill out the Site URL in your app settings page
