facebook Uncaught OAuthException: An active access

Question

I've been struggling to find out what is happening with this. My scripts were working fine for a bit and suddenly half stopped.

I'm accessing the api and am getting back an access token. With the access token, I can access a users public info just fine. However, when I try to post info to their FB account I get this error.

Fatal error: Uncaught OAuthException: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user. 

Any idea what is happening here? I'm also using sessions on my site to keep track of internal user ids. Not sure if my sessions could be causing a problem.

This is my upload script where I'm getting an error.

require 'facebook/src/facebook.php';


// Create our Application instance (replace this with your appId and secret).
$facebook = new Facebook(array(
  'appId'  => '12345678',
  'secret' => 'REMOVED',
  'fileUpload' => true, 
  'cookie' => true,
));
$facebook->setFileUploadSupport(true); 

$me = null;
// Session based API call.
if ($session) {
  try {
    $uid = $facebook->getUser();
    $me = $facebook->api('/me');
  } catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
    error_log($e);
  }
}


// login or logout url will be needed depending on current user state.
if ($me) {
  $logoutUrl = $facebook->getLogoutUrl();
} else {
  $loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl();
}


$photo_details = array('message' => 'my place');
$file='photos/my.jpg'; //Example image file
$photo_details['image'] = '@' . realpath($file);
$upload_photo = $facebook->api('/me/photos', 'post', $photo_details);

Had the same problem and the solution was to reauthorize the user. Check it here:

<?php

 require_once("src/facebook.php");

  $config = array(
      'appId' => '1424980371051918',
      'secret' => '2ed5c1260daa4c44673ba6fbc348c67d',
      'fileUpload' => false // optional
  );

  $facebook = new Facebook($config);

//Authorizing app:

?>
<a href="<?php echo $facebook->getLoginUrl(); ?>">Login con fb</a>

Saved project and opened on my test enviroment and it worked again. As I did, you can comment your previous code and try.
