<?php 
session_start();
require_once __DIR__ . '\Facebook\autoload.php';
use Facebook\FacebookApp;
use Facebook\Facebook;
use Facebook\FacebookRequest;

$fb = new Facebook([
  'app_id' => '{app-id}',
  'app_secret' => '{app-secret}',
  'default_graph_version' => 'v2.5',
]);

$helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();
$permissions = ['email', 'user_likes']; // optional
$loginUrl = $helper->getLoginUrl('http://localhost/FB/login-callback.php', $permissions);

echo '<a href="' . htmlspecialchars($loginUrl) . '">Log in with Facebook!</a>';
?>

<?php

session_start();
require_once __DIR__ . '\Facebook\autoload.php';
use Facebook\FacebookApp;
use Facebook\Facebook;
use Facebook\FacebookRequest;
$fb = new Facebook([
  'app_id' => '{app-id}',
  'app_secret' => '{app-secret}',
  'default_graph_version' => 'v2.5',
]);
 echo 'hi';
$helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();
try {
  $accessToken = $helper->getAccessToken();
} catch(Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookResponseException $e) {
  // When Graph returns an error
  echo 'Graph returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
} catch(Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookSDKException $e) {
  // When validation fails or other local issues
  echo 'Facebook SDK returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
  exit;
}

if (isset($accessToken)) {
  // Logged in!

  $_SESSION['facebook_access_token'] = (string) $accessToken;

  // Now you can redirect to another page and use the
  // access token from $_SESSION['facebook_access_token']
}

?>

Ok

I also have the same issue, but it's not happening all the time. I'm using Graph API v2.8 for all my api calls.

I noticed that @SammyK mentioned here https://github.com/SammyK/LaravelFacebookSdk/issues/14#issuecomment-66364982 that the Graph API doesn't have 100% uptime. Is that still the problem? That comment was posted on Dec 9, 2014 and I'm not sure if that's still valid.

Any help would be much appreciated!

I’ve been getting this error sinxe yesterday on a job which has been working for a month. Once in a while I get in. I’m calling API 2.8 on laravel/socialite. Can anybody point me in right direction?

I have the same issue by testing the facebook messenger with curl -X POST "https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/subscribed_apps?access_token=EAAHTcbMR8tYBAMlpAT4ZASZAwsIYlwgzSddNnLtLkMYo0gWUvy3ZAEP9zqGcEcwFZCp4xF0Xdlg6y5569w1PxJ62jPVomCAsDzJsQhdsK46gld1wORFOueEsckTZCBM5HvhySAI0UJF1ZCLXSQCDqSDgct1cVIwPkIF82XSR6kIhKI76eqJcaGes6fyJjOrHMZD"
curl: (7) Failed to connect to graph.facebook.com port 443: Operation timed out

@Young-Je oh you fool , never post the acces_token in public , with this token anyone can post with your name and do whatever the fuck they want .Delete it !

[simoncjl]

@Young-Je I hope your token is not valid anymore, maybe a little bit activity on this thread will push you to change your comment?

I case any one still facing same problem,

i solve it by doing
do while loop , to ensure that post request is send

`public function send_msg($msg_tosend)
{
if ($msg_tosend) {// just ensure there is some thing to send
$url = $this->fb_graphv6 . $this->token;
// echo $url;
$ch = curl_init();
$headers = array("Content-type: application/json");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $msg_tosend);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$ST;
do { // loop untill post request sent
$ST = curl_exec($ch);
if ($ST === false) {
$this->error_handler(curl_error($ch));
}

        } while ($ST === false);

        $result = json_decode($ST, true);
        curl_close($ch);
        return $result;

    } else {
        die('no messeg');
    }
}
