fopen problem in localhost

Hello,

I purchased the plugin for the MaxiMenu and if it is enabled, I get the following error when I try to edit or add a new menu item:

Warning: fopen(...plugins/system/maximenu_CK_params/advanced_params_maximenu_ck-en.xml)
[function.fopen]: failed to open stream: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded ...

How do I fix this?

Hi
your are on localhost, you should call you webpage with http://127.0.0.1 instead of localhost.
Fopen has some issue on xampp

I'm also having a fopen problem with the plugin, but it's working great on localhost, the problem happens only on the server. I tried enabling the ftp layer, but it makes no difference. The fopen plugin is also enabled on the server.

Warning: fopen( test.solabs.com/plugins/system/maximenu_...s_maximenu_ck-en.xml ) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required in [...]/web/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 246

Thanks

if you have this error it seems that your server does not allow fopen.
Email me with the joomla contact page www.joomlack.fr/Contact/Cedric-KEIFLIN.html
give me the date you bought the plugin, I'll give you a modified version.

I just ask if your login system to connect to your website is not in cause. Check by deactivating it temporarly

Thank you very much Ced for your great and fast support!
It's working fine now!!
