Answer 1

I had also a problem with facebook login and cors but not with Passport in NodeJS/Express, my application is java(spring mvc)+ angular. I've managed to pass over the problem modifying my initial fb login function:

$scope.loginWithFacebook = function () {
    $http({
        method: 'GET',
        url: 'auth/facebook',
        dataType: 'jsonp'
    }).success(function(data){
        console.log('loginWithFacebook success: ', data);
    }).error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        console.log('loginWithFacebook error: ', data);
    });
}

with

$scope.loginWithFacebook = function() {
    $window.location = $window.location.protocol + "//" + $window.location.host + $window.location.pathname + "auth/facebook";
};

Hope it helps!
