I'm trying to call to Photo.upload on the the Facebook API server. As far as I can tell the code to construct the call is good but I can't understand the responce I'm getting back from the server. As far as I can see, this call is ment to work and other people don't get this problem. I can only reason that something is wrong with the code. The commented stuff is an artifact of me trying different things to get a different responce from the server. The original code that I've changed was in part taken from an example of how to do this which I couldn't get to work either really:

Server Responce:

12 This API version is deprecated method photos.upload api_key b92cee19a33c861275bfce4695896e44 call_id 1250194789.61 garden_jpg /var/www/vivaladan/pictureyourselfhull/garden.jpg v 0 sig 896ee95339cad24ce7e64a05ca764123

Code:

$key = b92cee19a33c861275bfce4695896e44;
$ver = 1.0;
$cid = microtime(true);
$uid = BIGINT;
$file= "garden.jpg";

$args = array(
  //amethod => photos.upload,
  v => $ver,
  api_key => $key,
  //uid => $uid,
  call_id => $cid,
  //format => XML
);

$args[basename($file)] = realpath($file); 
signRequest($args,$sec);

$postString = "";
foreach($args as $index => $value) {
$postString .= $index ."=".$value."&";
}
$postString = trim($postString, '&');


$ch = curl_init();
$url = "http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=photos.upload";
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postString);
$data = curl_exec($ch);

echo $data;

function signRequest(&$args, $secret){
  ksort($args);
  $sig = "";
  foreach($args as $k => $v){
    $sig .= $k . '=' . $v;
  }
  $sig .= $secret;
  $args[sig] = md5($sig);
}

I'm guessing it's because you're using $ver = 0.0; - there's no 0.0 version of the API.

I was trying different version numbers to see if that made a difference. It was originally 1.0. I've changed it back in the code sample

try using api.new.facebook.com API URL instead

The correct version number is "1.0"

But I can't get this to work either. It keeps giving me incorrect signature.
