If you have an already open session, you should check whether it already has the "publish_stream" or "publish_action" permission, and if it doesn't, call requestNewPublishPermissions. Something like

Session session = Session.getActiveSession();

List<String> permissions = session.getPermissions();
if (!permissions.contains("publish_actions")) {
     Session.NewPermissionsRequest newPermissionsRequest = new Session.NewPermissionsRequest(this, Arrays.asList("publish_actions"))
            .setDefaultAudience(SessionDefaultAudience.FRIENDS);
     session.requestNewPublishPermissions(newPermissionsRequest);
}

You can set the permission of publish as below :

private static final String[] PERMISSIONS = new String[] { "publish_stream" };

And check this permission in the authorize method of facebook as below: 

public void loginAndPostToWall() throws CustomException
  {
    try
    {
        m_facebook.authorize(FacebookShareActivity.this, PERMISSIONS,
                Facebook.FORCE_DIALOG_AUTH, new LoginDialogListener());
    }
    catch (Throwable p_e)
    {
        throw new CustomException(TAG + "Error in  loginAndPostToWall()", p_e);
    }
}
