Please go back over the pinned post in this forum about posting a LINK to your OBS log (not as you did above)
The log above in incomplete, and doesn't show any streaming connection

Are you using Facebook's /Live/Producer? and you can see a preview of your stream in your browser on the Live Producer page? if yes, then you need to check your Facebook settings? for example, did you schedule your event (video)? I've found FB doesn't auto-go-live like it says it should (and used to). I have to manually 'Go Live' nowadays. Or did you set stream to be Admin (ie test, not for pubic) or regional restrictions, or other... LOTS of stream settings options within Facebook (and other CDNs) that could interfere if you don't understand their meaning
