Facebook sharer.php is not showing the image even when using the image tag

Question

This article article has an issue with Facebook. When I try to share the article with sharer.php Facebook does not work (try by clicking the Facebook icon). Most of the other articles are working fine. I am using the og:image tag, but with this article the image is not loaded.

UPDATE:

From this debugger I get: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

Response Code: 206 Fetched URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/cd.live/uploads/content/image/5212/aside_main_air-pollution-day-2.jpg Canonical URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/cd.live/uploads/content/image/5212/aside_main_air-pollution-day-2.jpg Errors That Must Be Fixed

Can't Download: Could not retrieve data from URL.

this morning 17 October 2012 Facebook is loading the image – rtacconi Oct 17 '12 at 08:42 — rtacconi, Oct 17 '12 at 08:42

Have you tried http:// instead of https:// for the og:image url?

All articles are using https to serve the images and for most of them images are loaded (in FB). – rtacconi Oct 16 '12 at 17:04
Or maybe the HTML-code in og:description is confusing facebook? I See
tags coming through. Sorry I'm guessing here, since it's difficult to test :)

Either with HTTP and HTTPS I get the same error. I had a look at the bugs, I cannot find a way to open a new bug – rtacconi Oct 16 '12 at 17:25

Looks like an S3 authentication key problem and not facebook's already deprecated sharer.php api (go here for more info). You'll need to look into your S3 auth and ensure that you can open up an image in your browser prior passing it onto FB's sharer.php.
