Question

I’m trying to create a basic application, i created facebook application before but everything has been changed 🙁

I looked every where to create a basic application, but now i’m getting mad because there isn’t any working sample. Because of the changed links, facebook api changes, facebook wiki changes i couldn’t find a working copy.

I wonder if anyone can help me to write a basic app that gets permission to write user name to screen in facebook developer toolkit asp.net. I looked computerbeacon.net, codeplex, and some other pages but i couldn’t succeed, so please don’t give me the links 🙂

Edit: I’ m adding some screenshots and some codes, it will may be help you to find my problem.

Here some screenshots from fb;

This is the core settings,

This is the Facebook integration settings,

Web.config file

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<configuration>

  <appSettings>
    <add key="FaceBookAPIKey" value="MyapiKey"/>
    <add key="FaceBookSecretKey" value="MyapiSecret"/>
  </appSettings>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="false" targetFramework="4.0" />
  </system.web>

</configuration>

My Default.aspx file;

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Facebook.Web" Namespace="Facebook.Web" TagPrefix="cc1" %>
<cc1:CanvasFBMLLoginControl ID="CanvasFBMLLoginControl1" runat="server" RequireLogin="true" />

Result;
