It was working all right before I tried reinstalling gwibber today, which I decided to do since it was not showing me Facebook feed as it is supposed to do.
So as a side step for cleanly reinstalling gwibber, I decided to delete my earlier working Facebook account for reconfiguration from Online Accounts, and now when I am trying to create a new one from Online Accounts, bang, it shows what is mentioned above in the bug, an external browser window with a Success message, and nothing going forward from there. So it definitely has been introduced very lately. This does not seem to be at gwibber's end, which is broken in itself but rather from the Facebook's end, since Facebook integration is not working even in a decoupled manner now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gwibber in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1131263 Title: Gwibber does not add Facebook account, external browser says "Success". Status in “gwibber” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Software versions: Ubuntu 12.10 x86_64 Gwibber + services 3.6.0-0ubuntu1.1 (works the same for 3.6.0-0ubuntu1) I go to "Add social network account" and add Facebook, it opens a new window which says "Please authorize Ubuntu to access your Facebook account" + Cancel button. Doing this opens an EXTERNAL BROWSER WINDOW which promts me to login Facebook -> promt to allow application (Ubuntu) -> promt for permissions -> BLANK PAGE WITH "Success". And nothing else happens. gwibber-service.log shows nothing about Facebook, but contains debugging information for gwibber-service-twitter.
