Yet another Facebook OAuth error 500

Today I moved my facebook application to nodejitsu and I couldn't figure out what was wrong in the oauth/dialog GET request.

I validated that I had:

I played around so much with these properties and I didn't figure out why it was still giving me a 500 error. I checked most of the posts on stackoverflow and although they all seemed to be valid errors, they didn't seem to reflect my issue.

This is how I found my problem.

After migrating the app to nodejitsu my localhost app still worked. So I decided to remove localhost from the accepted app domains in the facebook settings. When I tested it again I got this error:

"Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains."

Ok, so this made my think. If the problem was with an incorrect domain I would still get this message for nodejitsu, so I had an error with the request I reckoned.

I manually edited the request and I figured out that my redirect_uri did not start with http.

I changed this and it worked.
