Question

I got following error

Fatal error: Uncaught OAuthException: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user. thrown in /home/.../third_party/base_facebook.php on line 1106

my function is,

public function isPhotoPermission()
        {
            $facebook = new Facebook();
            $access_token = $facebook->getAccessToken();
            $permissions = $facebook->api("/me/permissions","GET",array('access_token' => $access_token));
            if( array_key_exists('user_photos', $permissions['data'][0]) ) 
            {
                return 1;
            } 
            else 
            {
                return 0;
            }
        }

that 1106 line is,

1105:  protected function throwAPIException($result) {
1106:    $e = new FacebookApiException($result);
1107:    switch ($e->getType()) { ....

error occurring by following code:

$permissions = $facebook->api("/me/permissions","GET",array('access_token' => $access_token));

Where is the Problem? Thanks for advance.

Answer 1

Are you sure you didn’t forget the parameters as for the Facebook() constructor?

$config = array();
$config[‘appId’] = 'YOUR_APP_ID';
$config[‘secret’] = 'YOUR_APP_SECRET';
$config[‘fileUpload’] = false; // optional

$facebook = new Facebook($config);

Or perhaps did you initialize your $facebook object somewhere else in the code? In that case, you should:

• either pass $facebook to your isPhotoPermission() function in order to get it back,
• or set $facebook as global whether it is initialized in another function,
• or simply remove the $facebook = new Facebook(); line if $facebook has been defined outside a function (would mean it is already global).
