OAuth Result: oauth_problem=permission_unknown with 2-leg OAuth

Question

Currently we integrate our own application with confluence and get an oauth_problem=permission_unknown result even though i gave permission for the application. After that, we received the verification code over the authorization url. If i now try to get an access token, i get oauth_problem=permission_unknown as result.

Can anybody tell me whats going wrong here?

Hi Andrew,

actually we run through the whole OAuth Dance and checked the log. There is no error thrown in the log and the return code is still 401 with oauth_problem="permission_unknown".

The information I would expect from this would be in the $CONFHOME/logs/atlassian-confluence.log file.  For an error like this, there is not an additional logging package for us to debug on.

Could you provide us with the complete error message as it appears in the logs?  I'm curious to see if we can learn more about this with a complete error message.  I am afraid that we are only seeing this error without sufficient information about the environment to be able to help troubleshoot this.
