I am getting the following exception for Twitter based authentication. (Facebook auth works).

starting step - getRequestToken Caught exception: Error: Desktop applications only support the oauth_callback value 'oob' Error: Desktop applications only support the oauth_callback value 'oob' at /home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/lib/modules/twitter.js:35:12 at /home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/lib/step.js:97:21 at [object Object].fail (/home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/lib/promise.js:53:24) at /home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/lib/modules/oauth.js:105:18 at /home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/node_modules/oauth/lib/oauth.js:510:17 at passBackControl (/home/vinay/Projects/nodeapp/node_modules/everyauth/node_modules/oauth/lib/oauth.js:366:13) at IncomingMessage.

It was caused by the application's Twitter settings.

I have the same error message. Could you tell me what you changed in your settings?

Oh, I found the solution: You have to enter a callback URL in Application Details on Twitter Developers page (the callback URL do not need match with the real URL).
