A web appliction is running on my local machine (can't be accessible from Internet, it is a developer site, not the production one), e.g. URL:1 http://myapp.com.

I want to configure a Facebook app on my web application. Created Facebook application, App > App Details, at Privacy Policy URL given URL:1 this message appeared:

"You must submit a valid Privacy Policy URL in order to be compliant with Facebook Platform. Request failed with error: Can't Download: Could not resolve the hostname into a valid IP address."

My application is a development site. I can't expose it on a public domain. I don't have Privacy Policy URL on public domain. What would be the best solution?

It has to be accessible and public. You can´t enter a link that only runs on your local machine, Facebook obviously can´t check if it´s there.

  • yes The valid URL's are checked if they can be scraped , I tested from https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ as the URL i given is on private domain, its not able to scrap. I don't have any public domain to host. as its a developers site, not the production one. does Facebook have a different mode to deal for developers,How developers need to proceed? – Vithre Jun 08 '15 at 06:30
  • no, you have to put the policy on a server, that´s the only way. – andyrandy Jun 08 '15 at 07:08
