Captcha is not working anymore

[semmerket]

Hello,

I have Phoca Guestbook installed on Joomla 1.5. It was working well with reCAPTCHA activated. But now it doesn´t works anymore. Just show a message: "Could not open socket". I have tried to change to another captcha and all of them give me the message "the code you enter is wrong" (and is not)!

I was forced to use no captcha, but this will full the database with crap...

I´ve already tried to upgrade the component, but doesn´t works too. What more can I do?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, try to see accesslog or other logs, to find which actions were done on your server, maybe some limits were set there

Hi!

Try to disable "fsockopen" in your php.ini - for example: string in php.ini:
"disable_functions = exec, popen, passthru, system, fsockopen, shell_exec, virtual, proc_close, proc_get_status, proc_open, proc_terminate"
just del "fsockopen"
