Answer 1

I moved my code to a different app/server and then to the same app on a different server and everything worked fine. So I started looking into it as a server configuration issue. Turns out Facebook didn't like the self-signed certificate on my development server.

I was able to solve this problem by altering the base_facebook.php class in the PHP SDK and adding the curlopt to ignore the SSL verification step. See below:

  public static $CURL_OPTS = array(
    CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 10,
    CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
    CURLOPT_TIMEOUT        => 60,
    CURLOPT_USERAGENT      => 'facebook-php-3.1',
    CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => false
  );
