Question

I’m using the 3.1 Facebook SDK with iOS 6 Facebook set up in Settings and my app authorized.

This executes flawlessly:

[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:nil allowLoginUI:YES completionHandler:^(FBSession *fbSession, FBSessionState fbState, NSError *error) { ... }

However now when I try to get ‘me’ information I’m getting an error:

com.facebook.sdk:ParsedJSONResponseKey = {
    body =     {
        error =         {
            code = 190;
            "error_subcode" = 463;
            message = "Error validating access token: Session has expired at unix time 1348704000. The current unix time is 1348706984.";
            type = OAuthException;
        };
    };
    code = 400;
}

If I look at [error code] it’s equal to 5. Shouldn’t I have a valid access token after just logging in? Do I need to call reauthorize?

UPDATE: Reauthorizing doesn’t help. Oddly the accessToken for my activeSession is always coming back the same. This despite calling closeAndClearToken.

UPDATE:
This issue has been addressed in Facebook iOS SDK 3.1.1.

I synched the code off of github and found that they weren’t calling accountStore renewCredentialsForAccount:completion: anywhere. I changed the following code in authorizeUsingSystemAccountStore and it seems to have resolved the issue.

// we will attempt an iOS integrated facebook login
[accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType
                                      options:options
                                   completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {

                                       // this means the user has not signed-on to Facebook via the OS
                                       BOOL isUntosedDevice = (!granted && error.code == ACErrorAccountNotFound);

                                       dispatch_block_t postReauthorizeBlock = ^{
                                           NSString *oauthToken = nil;
                                           if (granted) {                                                                                                      
                                               NSArray *fbAccounts = [accountStore accountsWithAccountType:accountType];
                                               id account = [fbAccounts objectAtIndex:0];
