Q: 

Facebook Graph API authorization problem

If I load the following URL in Firefox and login to Facebook, I'm getting a page displaying "An invalid next or cancel parameter was specified."

https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=c8caf78d724d142ee82334131ef5c9ce&redirect_uri=http://www.facebook.com/connect/login_success.html&type=user_agent&display=touch&scope=offline_access,publish_stream

But if I change the display parameter to display=page I no longer get this error. Any ideas as to why?

A: 

You have to enable New Data Permissions on the Migrations tab in your app's settings.

I'll give this a shot and see what happens.

Yup, it worked. Thanks. In what part of the documentation did you find this?

I was just browsing through the app settings a few days ago and googled this perticular setting.

UPDATE: Facebook migrated all apps to the New Data Permissions a few days ago.
