Facebook CurlException SSL connection timeout

My first Facebook application has been giving me this SSL connection timeout error and it seems that it happens once in a while. To resolve this I searched and browsed many sites and finally able to find one which gives some solution. My solution is different than this website . For mine I thought about increasing the timeout and rather than increase it for each call, I just updated the code that it only increases the timeout for SSL call; that way the server wait time does not gets increased on every call. Here is my code. if (isset($opts[CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT])) { if($opts[CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT] < 30){ $opts[CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT] = 30; } } I placed my code right before the     curl_setopt_array($ch, $opts);     $result = curl_exec($ch); Hope this sample can be of some use to you as well.
