If you see the fatal error: cURL extension is not available on your server then you need to have CURL enabled on your server. You can ask your hosting provider to activate this.

Hi,

My site crashed after I had activated cURL in my PHP setting.

The hosting company support has asked to file a ticket for "allow outbound connections". They require the following information:

*****
Please allow the outbound connections for scripts for FTP username: XXXXXXX
Local script filename (and location) which needs the outbound connection:
1.
2.
...
Remote server IP address and port number:
1.
2.
...
Exact purpose of this connection:
1.
2.
...
Please note that our firewall is IP based. If the remote host changes its IP address in the future, please notify us of the change.
******

What are the details we have to fill in here?

Thanks.

So you can have problem, because I think that Google doesn't use one server with one IP address to publish weather informations ;)

@Dziudek

Then what would you suggest would go in here: "Local script filename (and location) which needs the outbound connection:" ?

Thanks
