I know there is currently an issue where Facebook isn't liking gwibber because it is asking for updates too often. IIRC, there has already been a fix released for that issue, but it will take time for users to upgrade for the problem to resolve. I don't know if that is what is causing this problem, but I did have an issue with it about a week ago, so I will mark it confirmed.

What version of gwibber/Ubuntu do you use? Please could you run under latest version of gwibber: gwibber-service -d -o and attach all resulted output to a textfile (following your steps to reproduce this issue), Thanks!

Not sure if this is exactly the same issue, original author was not very verbose.
Please tell me if I should re-post this as a new issue.

Here is what happens:
Edit » Accounts » New Account » Facebook » Authenticate
Facebook HTML-page appears. (I am not logged in). Message is "Log in om Gwibber in je Facebook account te gebruiken" (Facebook is localized to Dutch, sorry for that)
Log in with FB credentials, check "[x] Stay logged in with Gwibber"
FB HTML page dissapears, Gwibber gives a message "Facebook toestemming verleend", in EN: "Facebook permission granted"
(screenshot attached)

But, no facebook appears in my accounts list, yet.
Buttons to call facebook grants still in GUI, pressing that button gives a frame with blank (HTML) page. (screenshot attached)

I ran gwibber-service -d -o and result is attached. However, it seems no facebook-releated event is logged, other then the mere fact that "INFO:Gwibber Dispatcher:Gwibber Service is reloading account credentials".
