I imagine it's a syntactical thing. It looks like you are sending the chevron characters in the values?

So client id should be 

client_id=xxxxxxxxxxpIH0lKS-oDYy-FPVABjn

not 

client_id=<xxxxxxxxxxpIH0lKS-oDYy-FPVABjn>.

That will likely cause the "26" error code.

Make sure you removing the < and > from the form values.

something like this will work.

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -F "client_id=xxxxxxxxxxpIH0lKS-oDYy-FPVABjn&client_secret=xxxxxxxxxxxxxpADzzeDLo2BYJ_pLS&grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=http://localhost&code=cxxxxxxxxxxxx8LpsNViR2ua0CP9g#_" "https://login.uber.com/oauth/v2/token"

Replacing the 'xxxxx's with the real values.
