I had a look at several stackoverflow posts about this error message, but none of them worked for me. 

I want to upload a photo to facebook: 

```
public function uploadPhoto($path){
    $photoSettings = array(
        'access_token'=> $this->facebook->getAccessToken(),
        'name' => 'uploaded foto',
        'source' => '@' . realpath($path)
    );

    $photo = $this->facebook->api('me/photos','POST',$photoSettings);
}

```

When i call this function, i get the following error message:

Uncaught CurlException: 26: failed creating formpost data

I am 100% sure that the image i want to upload exists (and the path is correct). 

This is my facebook initialization: (fileUpload is true)

```
$this->facebook = new Facebook(array(
          'appId'  => $this->config['appId'],
          'secret' => $this->config['appSecret'],
          'fileUpload' => true,
          'cookie' => true
    ));

```

I really don't understand why i get that error because my code seems to be correct. Do you think there could be a problem with my server / the server's cURL configuration? I dont know much about cURL.

I hope you can help me! I am looking forward for your answers :-)
