Facebook page wall autopost picture resize

I have successfully created code for posting my website inputs to Facebook page using long lived access token.

SDK used: PHP SDK v5

Problem

1) Picture not displaying despite I am sharing absolute path.

2) Picture area posted using following code, showing full width. Is there any way to resize like expected result image.

enter image description here

My code

if(!isset($_SESSION)){session_start();}

require_once 'facebook-sdk-v5/autoload.php';
//facebook page id
$pageId = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXX';

$fb = new Facebook\Facebook([
  'app_id' => 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXX',
  'app_secret' => 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXX',
  'default_graph_version' => 'v2.5',
]);

//LONG LIVED ACCESS TOKEN (60 DAYS)
$token = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX';

if (isset($token)) 
{
    $client = $fb->getOAuth2Client();

    try 
    {
      $accessToken = $client->getLongLivedAccessToken($token);
    } 
    catch(Facebook\Exceptions\FacebookSDKException $e) 
    {
      echo $e->getMessage();
      exit;
    }


    $response = $fb->get('/me/accounts', (string) $token);

    foreach ($response->getDecodedBody() as $allPages) 
    {
        foreach ($allPages as $page ) 
        {               

            if (isset($page['id']) && $page['id'] == $pageId) 
            { // Suppose you save it as this variable
                $appAccessToken = (string) $page['access_token'];
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    $response = $fb->post(
        '/'.$pageId.'/feed',
        array(
            "message" => "http://www.aazabc.com/30",
            "link" => "http://www.aazabc.com/30",
            "picture" => "http://www.aazabc.com/images/jobs.jpg",
            "name" => "UK SHIFT INBOUND CUSTOMER SERVICE / BOTH SIDE CABS",
            "caption" => "www.aazabc.com",
            "description" => "Hiring For UK Telecom Customer Service Process Inbound Customer Service UG / Grad / Dropout CAN Apply Freshers Can Apply 5 Days Working Location Gurgaon International Training Facility Both Side Cab Salary 20K - 25K + Incentives (8K-10K)"
        ),
        $appAccessToken
    );

    // Success
    $postId = $response->getGraphNode();
//    echo $postId;

}

Expected result (if possible)

  1. When I try to go to the picture url you provided, I get an 404 error: the image can't be found. So that's why is isn't loaded.
  2. Your desired result is sort of deprecated. Facebook wants the image to be at least 200x200 pixels, but the bigger the image (in a certain aspect ratio) the better:

Use images that are at least 1200 x 630 pixels for the best display on high resolution devices. At the minimum, you should use images that are 600 x 315 pixels to display link page posts with larger images. Images can be up to 8MB in size.

Also make sure to use og:image:width and og:image:height to let Facebook already know what the actual image size is.

Tip: Please use the Facebook debug tool to try and correct your errors.
