Your question doesn't explain too much about you error, but as far as I know you are doing a GET request and it seems that the API request its a POST.

I recommend you to update your request to use the last API version and to do a POST request for example using curl as follows:

$data = "url=" . urlencode($_POST["source"])
  . "&caption=" . urlencode($_POST['message'])
  . "&access_token=" .$facebook->getAccessToken();

$endpoint = "https://graph.facebook.com/v2.4/me/photos";

$ch=curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $endpoint);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$reply=curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

This snippet was not tested but I think it shows the idea.

Hope it helps!

hi thanks for reply, sorry if you did nt understand my question, i think the problem starts when facebook upgraded the api v2.2 to 2.3 and in 2.2 version my code was working perfect, now i dont know how to solve these problem.. and i tried your code but still the same — Ninder Chand, Apr 01 '17 at 17:21
