Hello Greg,

as it is specified in the documentation, your host should allow network connection to the same domain via port 80. This is allowed by default, but some hostings may have this disabled.
Please contact your hosting support regarding this.

We have contacted them they said it is open by default
they gave us a( telenet oursite80 ) prompt and seemed to be open there having a look
i will keep you posted .

They said the port is open ,So we are at a loss what to do next ?

Your advise please .
Thanks Greg

Hello Greg,

please make sure that it is not only open, but is allowed for php scripts.
Please also let me know your Generator instance URL/access info in Private Message.
