Error with OAuth2 gem v 0.5.0

Question

I get a very opaque error with the following code:

client = OAuth2::Client.new(
    "#{FACEBOOK_CONFIG['application_id']}", "#{FACEBOOK_CONFIG['secret_key']}",
    :site => 'https://graph.facebook.com'
    )
token = OAuth2::AccessToken.new(client, fb_token)
token.get('/me')

when I execute token.get('/me'), I get the following output:

OAuth2::Error Exception: OAuth2::Error

This code works fine with v0.4.1 but fails with v0.5.0

Here is the stack trace:

I've only used Omniauth recently but it looks like your trace is saying you have something like this in your oauth_helper:

 def try_access_token
   begin
     ..
   rescue OAuth2::AccessDenied

   end
 end

If that's the case, try changing OAuth2::AccessDenied to OAuth2::Error. Oauth2::Error provides a .code attribute that you can check to determine if it's an access denied response.

Thanks for your reply. I edited this to remove the stack trace because it was confusing the purpose of my real question. When I execute the code listed above in the console, I get this as output: OAuth2::Error Exception: OAuth2::Error. I can't figure out how to assign that error to a variable to inspect the .code attribute because when I do er=token.get('/me'), er is nil. Any ideas? – user531065 Nov 08 '11 at 16:41

I have the same problem.

Looking at the gem code, it's because the Facebook answer is an HTTP code of 400..599. when 400..599 e = Error.new(response) raise e if opts[:raise_errors] || options[:raise_errors]

Sadly, the communication between my server to facebook is using HTTPS, therefore, I haven't been able to intercept the problematic request yet.

UPDATE

I got a 400 error from Facebook :

OAuth "Facebook Platform" "invalid_request" "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user."

UPDATE 2

Interesting discussion here : Facebook access_token invalid?

I ended up rolling oauth2 back to 0.4.1 and my FB login and querying works.
