You should update to 2.1, which I’ve just tagged as stable so it will show up in the next 30 minutes or so.
Make sure you review the notes I published in another thread in the forum – there are significant changes in 2.1 if you are coming from 2.0.x – if you were already on 2.1b1 or 2.1b2 you will have already done these.
Many thanks for your prompt answer. I installed the latest version. Ia replaced the APP Key with the APP ID. I clicked on the Chech Permissions link and got beck the message “impossible to show the page” as the facebook were in maintenance or there was a programmin error. Could you help me?
Never seen the “impossible to show the page” error – had you already saved the changes you made to settings, before clicking on the check permissions link?
Yes I had saved the changes before clicking. The error code shown on Facebook page is HTTP 500.
@olivieri – my guess is this means something is wrong/missing in the settings.
Just to be clear, go to <blog>/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wpbook.php
And open the Stream/Wall Permission section.
The link marked “check permissions” should look something like this:
http://apps.facebook.com/<app_name>/?is_permissions=true&wp_user=2
Though the wp_user in your case might be different.
Is that the link where you are getting an error code 500?
What is the url of your facebook application?
Yes i was working in the setting page of wpbook.
The check permissions link is
http://apps.facebook.com/repsiamonoi/?is_permissions=true&wp_user=1
that is the link where I get HTTP 500 error code.
The url of my application is http://www.facebook.com/developers/#!/developers/apps.php?app_id=191556547543768
Many thanks for your help
So that HTTP 500 error code is not coming from Facebook but from your blog, at this url: http://www.legroma.osservatoriodeilaici.com/wpress_it_IT_292XXL/?cat=8&is_permissions=true&wp_user=1
I assume that you have mapped:
http://www.legroma.osservatoriodeilaici.com/wpress_it_IT_292XXL/?cat=8
As the website url in Facebook? You only want to include posts from certain categories or something?
The &is_permissions=true&wp_user=1 is added by WPBook to let wpbook know it should be trying to present the permissions page.
Any chance you have access to the server logs to find out what error the server is throwing?
The website url in Facebook is http://www.legroma.osservatoriodeilaici.com/wpress_it_IT_292XXL/
and the Canvas url is http://www.legroma.osservatoriodeilaici.com/wpress_it_IT_292XXL/?cat=8
It follows the server error log I got after clicking the check permissions link.
[huge chunk of code removed – please use pastebin.com]
To provide further information after the error message if I click the update the page link the post of the Canvas URL appear within Facebook without any share (or like) button or link to show the post in my blog.
I can access the server error log.
the more frequent error is as follows [Tue Mar 15 14:09:02 2011] [error] [client 66.249.68.110] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’ to increase the limit if necessary. Use ‘LogLevel debug’ to get a backtrace.
Should you need the complete error log please send me your email address to send.
Do you have some .htaccess rewrite rules added for your blog?
This is a configuration error of some kind, often triggered by attempts to prevent blog hotlinking or reframing.
Can you try setting your Canvas URL without the category restriction? I know I’ve never tested using just one category or any canvas URL which already includes a query string.
It would be helpful to know if that’s the issue.
This is the .htaccess file content i found in my blog (I hope it is the right one: # Use PHP5 Single php.ini as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5s .php
I tried to set the canvas url without category restriction but i am having the same error
This doesn’t look like the right .htaccess file, since it typically has some WordPress stuff in it.
Are you using the default permalinks structure, rather than ‘pretty permalinks’? (?p=1234)
This error is happening at the Apache level, not even the WordPress level – not sure how to even troubleshoot it.
Quick google search on the error suggests you should be able to turn on rewrite logging in apache’s main config and see what the looping request might be.
I changed my .htaccess as follows:
# Use PHP5 Single php.ini as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5s .php
# BEGIN WordPress
# END WordPress
Nothing changed. I think I am using default permalink structure since i did nothing to change.
I am not able to follow you regarding your suggestions on apache’s main configuration and the looping request …… since I am not a programmer. However if there is something I can do please let me have detalied instructions and I will try
