Created attachment 257482 [details] Screenshot of the failed login Adding a facebook account fails with the error message: "Authorisation response was: "(null)" as seen in attached screenshot. This is after logging in successfully, allowing Gnome to read my profile and allowing it to post. As I press "OK" on the last screen, the window closes down and the error message is displayed. I've captured the output of gnome-control-center -v online-accounts and attached it to this bugreport. OS: Fedora 20 Alpha 4 Package installed: gnome-online-accounts-3.10.0-2.fc20.x86_64 Steps to reproduce: 1. Open online accounts 2. Click add 3. Choose facebook 4. Login 5. Allow Gnome to access your public profile 6. Allow Gnome to post ...

I thought that I had messed up in bug 709570 but I just tested without those patches (Fedora 19 + gnome-online-accounts-3.8.3-3.fc19) and I get the same result. It might be possible that something changed on the server-side. Anyway, there is nothing that gnome-control-center can do. Reassigining to gnome-online-accounts.

I just installed FC19 last night, ran all updates and encountered this same bug.
Created attachment 257628 [details] [review] facebook: Update README Another round of testing reminds me that Facebook uses the query to return error=access_denied, while the access_token is returned in the query. Ofcourse, you won't get error=access_denied if you had granted access to GNOME in the past.
Just chiming back into this bug to say that it's extremely pleasing to see such a fast response Debarshi! Thank you and keep up the good work!

I am reasonably confident about these that I am going to push them to master and gnome-3-10. I would like to backport them to gnome-3-8 as well, but I am going to wait a bit more before I do that.
Close this bug, please
I will, once I am sure that the patches don't break anything and have backported it to gnome-3-8.
