Facebook connect callback

Hi All,

I'm in trouble with facebook connect, I searched for it in the forum but anything matched my issue. I configured Facebook Connect in my Dolphin installation following instructions of page:

 

https://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/How-to-setup-Facebook-Connect-module.htm

 

Everything seems fine with that configuration, but when I try to use it to join (by clicking on "Facebook connect" button in the "Join Now" panel) after entering my login on Facebook it ends on a "Page not found" while trying to call back Dolphin. The callback page is:

 

/m/facebook_connect/login_callback?code=...

 

Any suggestion? Thanks to all in advance.

you have to set the callback url in your facebook app itself - it took me about an hour to figure it out and i tried so many things i dont know what the actual solution was - where exactly the proper place is. search through google - thats what i did.

Also it maybe you have .htaccess file missing in Dolphin or mod_rewrite isn't enabled in Apache.

Another way is to disable permalinks in Dolphin:

Admin Panel > Settings > Advanced Settings > Permalinks > Enable Friendly Permalinks In Facebook Connect

Thank you ProfessorSr and AlexT for your help.

I had mod_rewrite disabled on Apache, so I enabled it and - to be absolutely sure - I did a fresh new installation of Dolphin.

Unfortunately nothing changed: the strange thing is that also in the Administration panel the issue is present, in the Modules section if I click on Facebook Connect menu item on the left bar the "Not Found" page is displayed, instead if I click on the Facebook Connect link on the Administration Modules page the settings page is displayed.

 

From the left bar Dolphin tries to access the page (not found):

/m/facebook_connect/administration/

while from the modules list Dolphin tries to access the page (found):

modules/?r=facebook_connect/administration/


This happens also with a lot of others modules, even if not all: for instance avatar, articles, events don't work; blogs works. 

I'm really stuck on this issue, any suggestion is very much appreciated.

is this your own server - if so - there are a few things I noticed when i set mnie up and couldnt get permalinks to work properly - in the httpd.conf file - change all instances of Allow Override None to Allow Override All

Great ProfessorSr! Your hint worked fine! Thanks a lot!

 

(... I can't understand why a so simple instruction is not reported in the detailed installation guide...)

because this is not a Dolphin issue - but an issue when setting up your Apache server. The only way I knew is because the original instructions i used for setting up my server included this in the instructions. I have seen a lot of others that do not include this step.
