Re: "Could not open socket"

- A firewall on your server is blocking any outgoing connection request.- Your server's DNS cannot resolve the following URL (this is the URL the recaptcha needs to connect in order to verify) Are these my only 2 options for fixing this? Or could it be something else?On Wednesday, September 11, 2013 1:48:43 PM UTC-4, Rebecca wrote: I have enabled ReCaptcha on my Joomla 2.5.11 site and it is set as the default Captcha in Global Configuration.

Is there anything else I can try to get this to work properly? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "reCAPTCHA" group.
