Django - python-social-auth: Facebook returns anonymous user

Question

I'm using python-social-auth on my Django website to connect with social accounts. I've managed to work with with Twitter and Google, but I'm having problems with Facebook. On the URI callback, request.user gives me 'AnonymousUser'. These are my settings:

settings.py:

...
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'social.backends.open_id.OpenIdAuth',
    'social.backends.google.GoogleOpenId',
    'social.backends.google.GoogleOAuth2',
    'social.backends.google.GoogleOAuth',
    'social.backends.twitter.TwitterOAuth',
    'social.backends.yahoo.YahooOpenId',
    'social.backends.facebook.FacebookOAuth2',
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
)

SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_KEY = 'xxx'
SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_SECRET = 'xxx'

SOCIAL_AUTH_PIPELINE = (
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_details',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_uid',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.auth_allowed',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_user',
    'social.pipeline.user.get_username',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.associate_by_email',
    'users.pipeline.require_email',
    'social.pipeline.mail.mail_validation',
    'social.pipeline.user.create_user',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.associate_user',
    'social.pipeline.social_auth.load_extra_data',
    'social.pipeline.user.user_details'
)

AUTH_EXTRA_ARGUMENTS = {'redirect_uri': PROJECT_DOMAIN + '/auth/'}

...

urls.py

urlpatterns = patterns('',
...
url(r'^auth/$', views.auth_complete),
...

views.py

...
def auth_complete(request):
    return HttpResponse(request.user) # this gives me AnonymousUser
...

Please warn me if I omitted any setting.

Your pipeline should looks like this:

   SOCIAL_AUTH_PIPELINE = (
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_details',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_uid',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.auth_allowed',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.social_user',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.associate_by_email',
        'social.pipeline.user.get_username',
        'social.pipeline.user.create_user',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.associate_user',
        'social.pipeline.social_auth.load_extra_data',
        'social.pipeline.user.user_details',
        'accounts.social_auth_pipeline.get_profile_data', # custom
        'accounts.social_auth_pipeline.get_profile_avatar', # custom
    )
