Facebooker error UnableToLoadAdapter

Quick note about the latest version of facebooker (as of July 31st 2009)

If you see an error that looks like

/home/brickfactor/facebooker_tutorial/vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker

Its because you haven’t configured config/facebooker.yml file correctly, or at all. (Most tutorials etc. have you creating and editing this file after you install facebooker)


Make sure you fill in all the details in the file, and you should see the error no more.

    Thank you very much. The tutorial I was following does have the configuration of this file a few steps after trying to run it or generate the receiver page, but without this those fail. This was really helpful

    u rock. You addressed the exact issue I had while tinkering with a facebooker tutorial. Many thx 2 u my friend!

  • AkshayNavle

    I am also using the http://madebymany.co.uk/tutorial-for-restful_au… tutorial and am currently editing the facebook.yml file.. I am having a hard time finding my canvas_page_name and pretty much everything below that… I've got the api_key and secret_key… thats all, any help would be awesome

  • robertsanchez

    actually.. i edited the yml file just fine… but now i'm getting an error when i go to /signup or /login that says undefined method `set_facebook_session' for #<SessionsController:0x10350a790>

    which came from the code from the tutorial: And add the following to ApplicationController

    layout 'index'
    before_filter :set_facebook_session
    helper_method :facebook_session

    testing from rails app

    I'm guessing the test worked?
