Answer 1

From my experience you can't use facebook APi local, however they have a free host provider,Heroku, try it. Also don't forget to replace YOUR_APP_ID and YOUR_APP_SECRET with your app Data.

Answer 2

here is may be two posibilities like: 1) Do you have any firewalls? The problem is not about configuration is just CURL can't do requests to graph.facebook.com and possible any website. Try disable any firewalls that may be blocking your CURL requests

2) From my experience you can't use facebook APi local, however they have a free host provider,Heroku, try it. Also don't forget to replace YOUR_APP_ID and YOUR_APP_SECRET with your app Data.
