Invalid backend when converting token on server

Hey there! First of all thank you for keeping this project alive.

I’ve been struggling a little bit to get things working on the server. When running locally it works like a charm:

But when I try to do the same on the server (over https) I’m getting the Invalid backend parameter error:

It’s the same error if I try with facebook or google-oauth2 backends.

Here are the configs:

Have you ever had this issue? Do you have a clue about it? I’m very confused about this because it was supposed to work just fine since it is working when I am running locally.

Hi @crozarakamilla. Thank you.

I have seen this error before. I realised it was because I didn’t have an Application called facebook in production. Can you cehck that please?
