Setting allow_url_fopen in php.ini

    Hi,
    Thanks for your plugin! On my local MAMP setup, everything works like a charm, however in the live environment, I keep running into this message while trying to add Youtube video’s:

    Please enable the PHP setting allow_url_fopen

    The php.ini file on the server says:

    ; Whether to allow the treatment of URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files.
    allow_url_fopen = On

    Is there anything else I should change to fix this error?

    I have tried comparing php.ini files, and found the following differences in the server file:

    disable_functions = exec, shell_exec, system, passthru, popen, pclose

    post_max_size = 8M

    magic_quotes_runtime = Off

    enable_dl = Off

    upload_max_filesize = 8M

    session.hash_bits_per_character = 4

    Also, MAMP loads some extensions my server doesn’t have:

    extension=imap.so
    extension=yaz.so
    extension=mcrypt.so
    extension=gettext.so
    extension=pgsql.so
    extension=pdo_pgsql.so
    extension=pdo_mysql.so

    If you could help me find the culprit, I’d be very thankful

    Kindest regards
