    slove it by update gradle and add facebook client token in manifests

    <meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ClientToken"
android:value="@string/facebook_client_token"/>

    You didn’t add any code explaining the problem but after searching for this problem I found that you should add SDK initializes method in youronCreate() like the following

        @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
        AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);
    }

    To use Facebook Ads Sdk in your app, You must make an App class for your app and initialize the sdk there.

    import android.app.Application;

public class App extends Application {

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();
        FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext());
        AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);
    }
}

    And set it in your manifest.

    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

    <application
        android:name=".App"  <!-- Name of your app class -->
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        ........
        ........

    </application>
</manifest>

    I solved the issue with RAGIP MULLAMUSA’s answer (Sorry I don’t have enough reputation to vote or comment)

    While I tried to upgrade the Facebook SDK from 9.x.x to latest (15.1.0), I found this error:

    The Facebook sdk must be initialized before calling activateApp

    I tried to put FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext()); before AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);, and it doesn’t work. But the error will become:

    A valid Facebook app client token must be set in the AndroidManifest.xml or set by calling FacebookSdk.setClientToken before initializing the sdk.

    You might obtain the client token from https://developers.facebook.com/, and put it in AndroidManifest.xml

    <manifest
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

  <application
    android:name=".App"
    ...
    ...>
  
    <meta-data
      android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ClientToken"
      android:value="YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN" />
  </application>
</manifest>

    Note: You don’t need to keep FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(getApplicationContext()); after putting client token in manifest.

    I tried to put FacebookSdk.setClientToken(YOUR_FACEBOOK_CLIENT_TOKEN); before super.onCreate();, but it doesn’t work for me.
