    Hi, can anyone help me figure out why I'm getting the error:

    (ERROR @ /connectors/workspace/packages-rest.php) MODX could not download the file. You must enable allow_url_fopen, cURL or fsockopen to use remote transport packaging.

    This is a brand new install on a Media Temple grid, and I checked the PHP info and it says that cURL is enabled. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance...
    • You may need to check with MT support, it might be enabled in PHP, but use blocked with a firewall or something.

        thanks AMD. I actually did call MT, and basically ended up just ading allow_url_fopen on to the php.ini file. The tech said sometimes, even though CURL is on, you need to do this. He said when I am done, to take it back out (which kinda sucks for my client). But figured I would post this in case anyone runs into the same problem in the future. It was a MT grid service, btw.

        Thanks for the reply
