    <p>So, I'm building a website called "dagbok.nu", which is swedish for "diary now" :)</p> <p>Anyway, when creating the Facebook application, it claims that the site URL is invalid as well as the app domain. For site url, I used "<a href="http://dagbok.nu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dagbok.nu</a>" and for site domain, I used "dagbok.nu". Please don't reply (as I've seen others do on similar issues) that I should type the site url with the scheme and the domain without - that's exactly what I'm doing.</p> <p>Right, so according to another question here, one could trouble shoot this functionality using FB's own URL scraper, so I did just that:</p> <p><a href="http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fdagbok.nu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q=http%3A%2F%2Fdagbok.nu</a></p> <p>And the reply: Error Parsing URL: Error parsing input URL, no data was scraped Right, so now I can assume that the reason for it being considered invalid is because of FB not being able to scrape the URL. But why?</p> <p>According to <a href="http://facebook.stackoverflow.com/questions/9100115/site-url-is-not-a-valid-url">this question</a>, one of the reasons seems to be that FB has deemed the URL insecure or "spammy". I've acquired this domain from a previous owner so this wasn't all that impossible. But when doing the same thing as Matthew in that post - i.e. trying to post in my timeline using the domain "<a href="http://dagbok.nu" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dagbok.nu</a>", I didn't get any information. The status box expanded as if to include a thumbnail and information about the link, but it only contained a "(No title)" text and nothing more. <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/5JXA7.png" alt="Screengrab"></p> <p>So now I don't know what to do. I've tried to check the DIG and NS records from multiple servers around the web, and everyone seems to resolve it correctly, and I've had friends double check the URL from the states as well. I can't understand what's wrong and I have no idea how to ask someone at FB how to resolve this. Does anyone here have a good advice for this? Thanks in advance! :)</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> When changing the domain to another domain that points to the exact same web server and document_root, it works! So this is definitely a problem with the domain "dagbok.nu" and not with the code on that page. </p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> When using the debug function above - I see no activity in the server log what so ever. Facebook doesn't even contact the server. When using the alternate url - the one from the last edit, it pops up in the logs as it should.</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> I filed a <a href="http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/455103071170761" rel="nofollow noreferrer">bug report</a> with Facebook, And their first response was that they were going to follow up. Now, a month later, I got an email that said "We are prioritizing bugs based on impact to the developer community. As this bug report has not received much attention from other developers, we are closing it so as to better focus on the top issues", and then they told me to go here to stackoverflow to try to solve my issue - but the issue is WITH THEM, and of course no one else have reported that my site doesn't work, it affects only me, and I haven't opened it yet due to this bug!</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> I wanted to file a new bug report, but I can't even that now, since they are blocking bug reports with this URL as well!</p> <p>I had to edit the URL - <a href="http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/527265697329693" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here is the</a> new bug report</p>

    1. COIts very possible that Facebook blocked that domain in their own DNS servers. Can you try any other .nu domains to see if that's the issue?

    2. COYes, other .nu domains works just fine. If I'm blocked for whatever reason, how would I go about inquiring Facebook about that?

    3. CODid you file a bug report with Facebook http://facebook.com/bugs/create? This sounds like an internal problem of theirs. Your url isn't showing up in any URIBL databases, so it shouldn't be marked as spem. Facebook just seems not to know what to do with it.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
