Exception while handling OAuth2 call back in localhost

[extra_rice]

hi folks,

I'm getting an "Exception while handling OAuth2 call back: Connection refused" when developing in localhost. But this setup is good when deploying to our DEV and TEST servers which has proper domains (dev.domain.com). I've configured separate Facebook apps for each (localhost/DEV/TEST) but it seems that I'm only getting these errors when developing in localhost.

Don't want to deploy to our DEV/TEST servers all the time since it's time consuming.

I hope somebody can help.

Cheers!

Is it possible that there's a proxy server between your local machines and the outside internet that must be overcome? And perhaps that proxy either doesn't exist in DEV and TEST or there's other mechanisms already in place to get around it?

Even if you can hit Facebook from your browser, that doesn't mean that the RestTemplate under the covers in Spring Social can hit it. Your browser may already be setup to authenticate against the proxy.
