    <p>I'm using FB.ui() like so:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script&gt; window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId : '##########', // App ID channelUrl : '//www.xxxxxxxxxx.com/channel.php', // Channel File status : true, // check login status cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session xfbml : true // parse XFBML }); // Additional initialization code here }; // Load the SDK Asynchronously (function(d){ var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk', ref = d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;} js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js"; ref.parentNode.insertBefore(js, ref); }(document)); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then, here's the link to send the message:</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href='#' onClick=" FB.ui({ method: 'send', name: 'Bla bla bla', link: 'http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com', to: ###########, //redirect_uri: 'http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/fb/' }); "&gt;Send a message&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>PROBLEM:</strong> This works like a charm for me and every computer/browser I've tested on. But my client gets the following error message very frequently:</p> <pre><code>API Error Code: 191 API Error Description: The specified URL is not owned by the application Error Message: redirect_uri is not owned by the application </code></pre> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Uphdq.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>This has me totally stumped! Is anything wrong with my code? And if so, why can't I EVER reproduce this bug while my client consistently can on multiple computers/browsers?</p> <p>PS: If you want to try yourself, the page is live <a href="http://www.streetofwalls.com/fb/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>. You'll have to authorize the app, but I promise nothing creepy will happen.</p> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> The error mentions the <code>redirect_uri</code>, which you'll notice is commented out in my code. The reason is because when I include that parameter, the dialogue doesn't close when I hit "close".</p> <p><strong>EDIT2:</strong> I was able to reproduce this bug on a friend's computer, and CBroe also confirmed it. So, (setting aside the mystery of why I still can't produce it myself), the thing that has me most stumped is why does this only happen half of the time?? If my code is incorrect it should never work, right??</p> <p>Here's the url from the error message:</p> <pre><code>https://www.facebook.com/dialog/send?display=popup&amp;link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.streetofwalls.com&amp;locale=en_US&amp;name=Career%20Networking%20powered%20by%20Street%20of%20Walls&amp;next=http%3A%2F%2Fstatic.ak.facebook.com%2Fconnect%2Fxd_arbiter.php%3Fversion%3D8%23cb%3Df2c657ef78%26origin%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.streetofwalls.com%252Ff3575a615c%26domain%3Dwww.streetofwalls.com%26relation%3Dopener%26frame%3Df1ca46b43c%26result%3D%2522xxRESULTTOKENxx%2522&amp;sdk=joey&amp;show_error=true&amp;to=573501273 </code></pre> <p>After <code>url_decode()</code> version:</p> <p><code>https://www.facebook.com/dialog/send?display=popup&amp;link=http://www.streetofwalls.com&amp;locale=en_US&amp;name=Career Networking powered by Street of Walls&amp;next=http://static.ak.facebook.com/connect/xd_arbiter.php?version=8#cb=f2c657ef78&amp;origin=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.streetofwalls.com%2Ff3575a615c&amp;domain=www.streetofwalls.com&amp;relation=opener&amp;frame=f1ca46b43c&amp;result=%22xxRESULTTOKENxx%22&amp;sdk=joey&amp;show_error=true&amp;to=573501273</code></p> <p><strong>EDIT3:</strong> Part of this puzzle is solved. The times when the error occurs are the result of <code>FB.init()</code> not working. I've wrapped the <code>FB.ui()</code> in <code>FB.getLoginStatus(function(response){ \\... }</code> so now you can see a more useful error in the console. The open question is... WHY DOES FB.init() fail so often?</p>

    1. COI can confirm the error when I click on “Expand your network by inviting Friends to connect” on the start page after allowing your app. (I only get the error message in red border, not the detailed error codes, but that’s because it not in debugging mode for me I guess.)

    2. COThis is SO confusing. The error message seems to vary, and I can't reproduce it at all! I added a `show_errors: true` parameter before posting the question, which seems to display the additional info... sometimes.

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
