iOS sharing "An error has occurred. Please try again later."

Question

I am making publication via [FBWebDialogs presentFeedDialogModally...]
It works fine.
But if I delete application in the facebook settings and try make post again, I get login dialog within web publication view.
And after log in I get an error: "An error has occurred. Please try again later.". No callbacks called.

How can it be fixed?

Log in form Error after log in

Why not just use the Facebook framework included with iOS 6? It saves you the whole hassle of authentication. — The Kraken, Apr 23 '13 at 12:19
I must support both iOS5 and iOS6. Using web dialogs for both is simpler. — PDaria, Apr 23 '13 at 12:57

Sandbox mode is disabled. Error happens after I delete app from my facebook account settings. All works fine until that. — PDaria, Apr 23 '13 at 13:40
Can you please file a bug report for this on: developers.facebook.com/bugs Thanks! — Shireesh Asthana, Apr 23 '13 at 16:41

Seems like a bug in the SDK.

Try specifying your app_id in the parameters dictionary passed to [FBWebDialogs presentFeedDialogModallyWithSession:parameters:handler]

The documentation says "Required, but automatically specified by most SDKs" however I found it was not happening automatically.

It works perfect when I added app_id into params. NSMutableDictionary *params = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: @"[YOUR ID]", @"app_id", @"Facebook SDK for iOS", @"name", @"Build great social apps and get more installs.", @"caption", @"The Facebook SDK for iOS makes it easier and faster to develop Facebook integrated iOS apps.", @"description", @"https://developers.facebook.com/ios", @"link", @"https://raw.github.com/fbsamples/ios-3.x-howtos/master/Images/iossdk_logo.png", @"picture", nil]; – Jingwei May 30 '13 at 04:34
Hi, even i added app_id, I am getting this error. Any one have solution for this. Actually i am getting this error only when i post large content (above 4 lines) in "Message" Param – user1120998 Oct 10 '13 at 07:10
Seems strange but it works with me too when I add app_id into the parameter. Thank you! – tyegah123 Feb 18 '15 at 01:44

You can get this error when your app is not available to the public (big slider on "Status & Review" page of the Facebook developer control panel says "NO"), and you have not added the account you log in with in the app as a test user.

I had this situation where I had not yet added my test user (I am using a difference account than my personal one for testing) as a test user to the app.

You can add your test users in the "Roles" page of the Facebook developer control panel.

This is the answer. Thank you Martijn, you made my day! – Dmitry Sobolev Nov 04 '14 at 02:03 — Dmitry Sobolev, Nov 04 '14 at 02:03

You can either add your FacebookAppID to the passed parameters, as nick suggests. Or make sure your FacebookAppID is in your plist info file.

Add a string key: FacebookAppID with the value of your Facebook App ID. Then the SDK can automatically add your app id for use everywhere else.
