An active access token must be used create a new site for the user.

Question

Problem :

I am very new to Facebook programming. Currently I want to run a very simple code for Facebook connect which I have already written but now a days I often face below error message :

[error] => Array

            (

                [message] => An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.

                [type] => OAuthException

                [code] => 2500

            )

I want expert help here to fix above error as I have already wasted couple of days in debugging above error but no successes yet.

Answer 1

To fix above error you need to make sure that your access token is currently active. Also please make sure you are in logged in condition. After this please try to clean the cookies and also your cache from your browser by using ctrl+shift+del.

If even after doing above steps you are still facing the error then in that case you must check if you are getting 0 as the user id in return from your $facebook->getUser().Then you must also check your getAccessTokenFromCode() from the base_facebook.php and after that you must verify your access_token_response format as there is the possibility of it may be in JSON format.

So you must try to use very appropriate decoding method to get your $response_params['access_token'] from $access_token_response.

It will certainly help you.
