gwibber fails to authenticate to facebook.

[Fernando Castro]

Binary package hint: gwibber

Ubuntu Release: 10.04
gwibber: Installed: 2.30.1-0ubuntu1

Expected: Logging in for the first time but have not made it past the log in screen for facebook.

Bug: When opening Gwibber the new account login shows up then you click authorize and input your credentials, click login and receive the error. "An error occurred with Gwibber. Please try again later." then you can only click on "OK" and you get a second error that says "Facebook authorization failed. Please try again."

I'm seeing exactly the same thing. Grr. Same package as well.

This happened to me on a fresh install of 10.4 with a fresh home drive. I was able to add my twitter, when I clicked facebook, after I entered my credentials it said unable Facebook Authorization Failed: Please try again later. I was unable to click OK, and I cannot exit the program. I am going to have to force kill it.

Same Problem with my account... but other work... i don't know why... maybe a privacy configuration problem?
