Login with Facebook-accounts (Meteor) doesn't work

Question

I ever used login with accounts-facebook with Meteor, but it stopped working without changing anything.

Here a snippet from my login code:

static Facebook() {

    if(Meteor.user()) {
      Meteor.call('permissionsServicesController', 'facebook');
    }

    if (Meteor.isCordova) {
      facebookConnectPlugin.login(
        ['email'],
        function () {
          console.log('success');
        },
        function () {
          console.log('error');
        }
      );
    }
    else {
      Meteor.loginWithFacebook({
        loginStyle: 'redirect',
        requestPermissions: ['email', 'publish_actions', 'user_about_me', 'user_birthday', 'user_education_history', 'user_friends', 'user_likes', 'user_location',
        'user_photos', 'user_posts', 'user_relationships', 'user_religion_politics', 'user_videos', 'user_website', 'user_work_history',
        'manage_pages', 'publish_pages']
      }, function (e) {

        if (e) console.log('Error at loginWithFacebook',e);

      });
    }
  }

And the message I'm receiving from terminal:

Exception while invoking method 'login' Error: Failed to complete OAuth handshake with Facebook.

I'm using:

accounts-facebook@1.0.1
Meteor 1.4.1.1

I already tried to take out the authorization account from facebook, check all the permissions, etc.

Anyone can help me?

so while the cause may be the same, the solution is probably different for the tech stack. i feel this isn't a true duplicate. — zim, Mar 28 '17 at 17:08
if anyone doesn't want to do a full meteor update, there is this package which will provide a workaround until you are ready. we just deployed this to prod and it's working: https://github.com/fede-rodes/facebook-accounts-patched — zim, Mar 28 '17 at 17:09

I had a similar issue recently. Check is your accounts-facebook package version.

According to Facebook Graph API Changelog, version 2.2 would be available until March 25th. (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog)

Update your accounts-facebook atmosphere package by running meteor update and this will make sure that your authentication process is using a recent version of the Graph API.

That should fix your OAuth handshake problem.
