I'm working on FB login on my site and I have all done except one weird problem. I followed this post and it works fine except that the image uploaded is empty.

What can cause the corruption of the image or how can I fix this issue? When I download uploaded image on my desktop, it just says we can't open this file

$image = file_get_contents('https://graph.facebook.com/'.$fid.'/picture?type=large');
$dir = dirname(__file__).'/avatar/'.$fid.'.jpg';
file_put_contents($dir, $image);

Try using curl to make the request. Since the graph url gets redirected file_get_contents function doesn't follow the redirection. – Gaurav Jagtap Aug 18 '17 at 14:18
I tried that but it still doesn't work. When usign curl or `https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-1/` it doesn't even upload the image file. – SamotnyPocitac Aug 18 '17 at 15:13
ok, this https://stackoverflow.com/a/4564420/3498491 worked for me. Thanks! – SamotnyPocitac Aug 18 '17 at 16:05
