CakePHP Facebook plugin: login fails

0
votes

I am trying to set a Facebook login in my CakePHP-driven site (without complicating myself using the AuthComponent). I am currently learning from Nick Baker's screencast.

I've set up my /system32/drivers/etc/hosts/ file, saved the paths in Facebook and set everything up in CakePHP. The problem is that when I click on the Login button and Allow the application, it redirects me back, but with the $this->Connect->user(); still empty. Cookies are being set for the domain. I have to add that I test locally, therefore the base URL is local.localdomain (just like in the screencast).

So what could the problem be? Everything works as expected but the associative array remains empty.

Thank you very much!

I am assuming that you are using Webtechnik's Facebook plugin.

Have you made sure that the settings from facebook, App Settings > Web site > site URL and the site domain is correctly set?
