"..succeed to connect to the selected provider but failed to retrieve your user details.."

[javascriptonian]

This error occurs when attempting to login using facebook: "The site succeed to connect to the selected provider but failed to retrieve your user details. If you are using Google, check that your site administrator has enabled the Google+ API in the Google developer console. It is the most common reason for this error."
More information about this error displays: "error/auth googleoauth2/faileduserdetails".

Solved it.. Should make sure to have "Require App Secret" set to "No" in facebook app > advanced settings..

Hi Justin,
thanks for the report and thanks even more for the solution. I was planning to update the Facebook documentation helper (all these oauth2 provider keep changing their settings). Reopinin abd assgning to me so I remember.

Hi guys. I think the solution's no more valid (probably due to API 2.8?). I've followed every hint given in the various issues, but I still get this error: "The site succeed to connect to the selected provider but failed to retrieve your user details. If you are using Google, check that your site administrator has enabled the Google+ API in the Google developer console. It is the most common reason for this error."

"Require App Secret" is set to "No" in facebook app > advanced settings
"Facebook Login" has been added as a product, and valid URI has been given...

Any ideas? Anybody's experiencing such problem?
Google & LinkedIn work fine, but we're experiencing difficulties with Microsoft as well...

I have the same issue with trying to authenticate using Facebook.

I have the same issue with trying to authenticate using Facebook.
I have Moodle 3.1 and FB API 2.8

[blwright]

Looking at the Developer Console in Google Chrome,
Facebook redirects back to $server/auth/googleoauth2/facebook_redirect.php?code= with a status code 303, then there is a redirect to $server/login/index.php?code=&authprovider=facebook that results in a 404.
BTW I am running Moodle 3.0.6 and FB API 2.8.

Help please, have anyone already fixed it?

[mouneyrac]

No no one sent a pull request for Facebook API 2.8. It will have to wait for when I will have some free time or someone sending a pull request. That said someone told me one of his client used Lenauth oauth2 plugin and it worked (dont have much more detail but it worth the try, lenthauth seems like a good plugin, and if it works please let us know here so people know of a working alternative). Cheers, Jerome

BTW - I have the lenauth plugin working, but I would prefer to have this plugin as an option.
The lenauth plugin didn't initially work, but I found a note made by Dmitry Shaposhnikov in the comments section of the lenauth moodle plugin page (Thu, Jul 14, 2016, 10:47 PM). That fixed my issue.

Thanks for the feedback Brendan :)
