facebook login not working in 1.5.1

Question

I tried to find an answer here, but nothing worked or was applicable to my situation. I enabled the facebook login and created an app on the facebook site.

When I click the login button, a popup opens and I have to approve the use of my facebook data. But after I've done that, nothing happens and I am not logged in...

Any ideas? :\

Curl is enabled and I entered the facebook id and secret in admin area.

Answer 1

Thanks to Anton and my own investigations, here is the solution to the problem:

1. Solution: add
   

   CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER = false to curl_opts array

2. Solution: create a file called fb_ca_chain_bundle.crt in the facebook-login folder and add content from here: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-php-sdk/blob/master/src/fb_ca_chain_bundle.crt

I think this info should be added to the plugin's documentation. Everything is working now. Thanks for your help, Anton. You gave me the right directions.

Welcome :) The project needs more infomation such this post.

Thank you  :)

---

Thanks. I will try to incorporate this fix into the next maintenance release.

---

amazing!! this worked like a charm!!! thanks a lot!!

---

Facebook updated the base_facebook.php, do we need to update for the plugin as well?

See their source at: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-php-sdk/tree/master/src

---

Is this solution still valid? The link appears to be broken.

---

It is still working, but the repository moved on github to this location: https://github.com/facebook/facebook-php-sdk/blob/master/src/fb_ca_chain_bundle.crt

---

Ok, I got the latest file in the folder but something's still wrong. Am I supposed to insert the curlopt_ssl(...) right after "curl_setopt_array($ch, $opts);" in base_facebook.php or somewhere else?

---

where is the curl_opts array?

---

I'm running nginx server, this solution didn't work for me, is there any difference between nginx and apache?

---

would be happy, if you would explain where i have to add the following

CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER = false to curl_opts array

thanks

I have had the same, but it was curl problem it was not installed. Did you turn on php debug, what does it say?

PS It is working now, so it is not plugin's problem
