Facebook4j access token error 2500

Question

I would like get data from facebook with facebook4j library, but I received this error

An active access token must be used to query information about the current user. code - 2500

The code:

ConfigurationBuilder confBuilder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
    confBuilder.setDebugEnabled(true);
    confBuilder.setOAuthAppId("MY ID APP");
    confBuilder.setOAuthAppSecret("MY APP SECRET");
    confBuilder.setUseSSL(true);
    confBuilder.setJSONStoreEnabled(true);
    Configuration configuration = confBuilder.build();

    FacebookFactory facebookFactory = new FacebookFactory(configuration );
    Facebook facebookClient = facebookFactory.getInstance();
    AccessToken accessToken = null;    

     OAuthSupport oAuthSupport = new OAuthAuthorization(configuration );
     accessToken = oAuthSupport.getOAuthAppAccessToken();

    facebookClient.setOAuthAccessToken(accessToken);

    ResponseList<Post> feeds = facebookClient.getHome(new Reading().limit(1000));

As the error suggests, you need an [access token](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/access-tokens) — Spokey, Mar 06 '15 at 09:21

You go to the following link: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/
There you choose your app, which you created and want to access from.
.setOAuthAccessToken("The User Access Token")
accessToken = oAuthSupport.getOAuthAccessToken(); // NOT AppAccessToken!!!

Then it should work
