Facebook AIR permissions

Question

I have an AIR app using GraphAPI_Desktop_1_8_1.swc to access FacebookDesktop. I call FacebookDesktop.login eg:
FacebookDesktop.login(handleLogin);and all is good, the login window opens and the user logs in.
But! when I add extra permission, for example:
FacebookDesktop.login(handleLogin,{perms:"publish_stream"}); 
In the 'handleLogin' callback function I get the following error:
message, An active access token must be used to query information about the current user. 
Any ideas how to resolve this?

Got no idea about the AIR side of things, but I have created Facebook apps using various other languages.  A good source of information for getting access tokens is this blog http://benbiddington.wordpress.com/2010/04/23/facebook-graph-api-getting-access-tokens/
The one thing I always do when I get an error is google that error, as you can normally find information and solutions to the problem.  Double check that you are doing
check the following things when you interact with facebook graph api.
1) Application connect URL should be the base of your \"redirect_uri\"
connect URL:- www.x-minds.org/fb/connect/
redirect_uri -  www.x-minds.org/fb/connect/redirect
2) Your \"redirect_uri\" should be same in the both case (when you request for a verification code and request for an access_token)
redirect_uri -  www.x-minds.org/fb/connect/redirect
3) you should encode the the argument when you request for an access_token
4) shouldn\'t pass the argument (type=client_cred) when you request for an access_token. the authorization server will issue a token without session part. we can\'t use this token with \"me\" alias in graph api. This token will have length of (40) but a token with session part will have a length of(81).
An access token without session part will work with some cases
eg: -https://graph.facebook.com/<user_id>?access_token=116122545078207|EyWJJYqrdgQgV1bfueck320z7MM.
But Graph API with \"me\" alias will work with only token with session part.
