OAuthException using Socialite with facebook - "message": "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.",

I have been using Socialite for a few days with facebook without issue. Today, I started getting this error.

{ "error":

{ "message": "An active access token must be used to query information > 
   about the current user.", "type": "OAuthException",
   "code": 2500, "fbtrace_id": "FTvIz9t1LT+"
}

}

The error seems straight forward but I can't seem to see a solution online. Is there a way to reset my access_token using Socialite.

Please note: I pretty much followed this tutorial https://blog.damirmiladinov.com/laravel/laravel-5.2-socialite-facebook-login.html#.WNmDqPkrKUk

The error is in the callback when I try and get the

$userProvider try { 
    $userProvider = Socialite::driver('facebook')->user();
} catch (Exception $e) {
   Log::info('Callback Error ' . $e->getMessage());
   return Redirect::to('redirect');
}

Thanks, Rich
