# S2Member Server Scanner – Help

 * I ran this server scanner and it says this:
 * [ERROR] cURL Extension / Or fopen() URL
    One or more HTTP connection tests failed
   against localhost. Cannot connect to self over HTTP — possible DNS resolution
   issue. Can’t connect to: [http://MyDomain.com](http://MyDomain.com)
 * In order to run s2Member, your installation of PHP needs one of the following…
   •
   Either the cURL extension for remote communication via PHP (plus the OpenSSL 
   extension for PHP). • Or, set: allow_url_fopen = on in your php.ini file (and
   enable the OpenSSL extension for PHP).
 * but the php.ini file already has this:
    allow_url_fopen = On
 * I know I have used cURL in some of my programming on this server, so pretty sure
   it is enabled.
 * So, how do I fix that one?
 * I also am getting this error:
 * [WARNING] Plugin Directory Checksum (s2member-pro)dismiss?
    Although NOT required,
   s2Member recommends that you reinstall the following plugin directory: /home/
   userpath/public_html/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro. The checksum for this plugin
   directory (fd66299c9c7d29ed2c08e04fe21e4cb1), does NOT match up with the official
   release of this plugin (0749a5ce75c7e93fb6f4a7253e9a4365). An invalid checksum
   can be caused by an incomplete set of files. Or, by files that should NOT appear
   in this directory. Or, by corrupted files in this directory. Reinstalling the
   official release of this plugin should correct this issue.
 * If all else fails, please check your method of upload. We recommend FTP via FileZilla
   ™. Also, please be sure the following file extensions are uploaded in ASCII mode(
   php, html, xml, txt, css, js, ini, pot, po, sql, svg). All other files should
   be uploaded in BINARY mode. Some FTP applications (like FileZilla™), can be configured
   to automatically recognize file extensions that should be uploaded in ASCII mode,
   while all others will be uploaded in BINARY mode by default. With this type of
   configuration, use upload mode AUTO.
 * I deleted all the files, including s2member-pro
    and then downloaded it again
   from the membership area. Then extracted it on my computer, made sure the ASCII
   files as showed above where set to auto and so made sure that worked.
 * Then uploaded it then reloaded the test. Same thing.
 * So that did not fix it.
    How do I fix this problem?
