Strange behavior on form suddenly

    Software has worked perfectly for months. Now all of the sudden I get an error saying "Could not open socket" after I submit form. It is kind of spotty though. I can get it to work after about 4 or 5 tries. I'm sure it's probably an easy fix. Just need some advice.

    I got new captcha public and private keys, thinking that may work. Still doesn't though.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Removed the captcha in the form...Works fine now. Anyone know what could be causing this?

  3. Sounds like you're having intermittent problems connecting to the reCaptcha server. There could be a variety of reasons apparently.. if it continues, you may want to check with your host about any changes to php configurations, firewalls, etc. that might prevent the fsockopen() function from making a connection.

    Google Results: "Could not open socket"

    Which hosting company are you using?

  4. I'm having the same problem as kjl1321. The problem is only recent and there hasn't been any changes to the hosting as far as I know. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
