Warning: fopen(http://website.com/image): failed to open stream

[dh-paule]

Hi @ all...

has anyone a idea? What does it mean?

Warning: fopen(http://enduropage.de/PIC_0004.jpg): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /usr/export/www/vhosts/funnetwork/hosting/enduro/coppermine/upload.php on line 1624

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

Your host does not allow URL downloads.  This could be due to a few different things:

1. Your host has disables the use of fopen on URLs, which is most likely. You can confirm this by examining phpinfo()'s allow_url_fopen setting.

2. Your host has enabled allow_url_fopen, but has removed the http:// wrapper key.

3. Your PHP version is too old to support wrappers.

You may resolve this issue by having your host activate allow_url_fopen, or you may disable URL uploads in Coppermine by changing the upload configuration in the Groups console.

An alternative is to use curl instead of fopen. curl must be supported by your host for this to work.
