There are several possibilities. For instance, do you have a firewall
blocking access? Is allow_url_fopen() disabled? Or any of several things.
You need to do some debugging. First thing is to ensure they php.ini
file on your development system has:
display_errors=on
error_reporting=E_ALL // or E_ALL | E_STRICT
And see what kind of error messages you are getting.
