Our central Facebook API key has been revoked. The impact is that Ubuntu users cannot use the Facebook integration anymore, ie post messages or photos from applications using our central key: Empathy, the Photo scope, the Friends app and Shotwell to a lesser extent.
All releases (14.04, 12.10+) are impacted. Users can still use Facebook normally in the browser. The Facebook webapp is not affected either. Here is the plan we have defined and are executing right now: * IS to register new API keys [DONE] * Alberto is reviewing the registration process to assist IS during this [DONE] * Alberto to MP a branch with the new keys in account-plugin-facebook [DONE] * Silo landing and upload to 14.04 asap [INPROGRESS] * Backport of the new key to supported releases as an SRU [TODO] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to account-plugins in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1304798 Title: Unable to access Facebook online account Status in Online Accounts: Account plugins: In Progress Status in Online Accounts: Account plugins 12.10 series: New Status in Online Accounts: Account plugins 13.04 series: New Status in Online Accounts: Account plugins 13.10 series: New Status in “account-plugins” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “friends-app” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “account-plugins” source package in Trusty: Confirmed Status in “empathy” source package in Trusty: Confirmed Status in “friends-app” source package in Trusty: Confirmed Bug description: When I try to add my facebook account to the online accounts in settings, instead of getting facebook's login page, I get a message like "Failed to access the application.
