activate outgoing connections for online update [Solved]

Hello,
A few days ago, I've mentioned a bug in the bug
tracker.
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=186
2267&group_id=166901&atid=840802)
My problem is when I'm trying to use the update
facilities, my Drake-cms installation crash every time.
The really fast answer (which was appreciated) from legolas558
I've received was that my hosting services don't enable the
outgoing connections.
So, I've asked my host how could
I enable this feature. They answer me that if I need url-fopen,
it can't be done. But I can get fsockopen.
I don't
know which one I need to enable the outgoing connections.
Does someone know if the fsockopen will work? Or what
could I do to have the online update enable? (It's mostly because
I want the French language without downloading every file one by
one (from
http://drakecms.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/drakecms/i18n/) than
recreate a zip file then update my site manually each time a news
updates is available.
Tank you.

It is
strange that they told you that it is possible to use socket
connections, because the error you reported tells about a
fsockopen() error while connecting at port 80!
Can you
test on your own if fsockopen() works? From the error you
reported it does not.

You can't really do
nothing if they're disabled by them. If they told you that it is
possible to use fsockopen(), maybe the usage of port 80 (used for
HTTP) is forbidden?

Drake CMS will use the standard fopen() approach and then the
fsockopen() approach as last resort. In your case seems that both
failed.

Oh, but you do not need to download each file singularly! You
can get the file from the SF.net downloads and then install it
from the Language Manager (as a file upload).
Actually, you can simply put the "ca" directory
inside lang and it will work

Hello,
What I've tried to say is that my hosting
services block the url-open and the fsockopen but is able to
active the fsockopen if I want (with a small fee).
If
I paid the small fee, will it solve my problem?
Also,
I've tried to find where to download the language package in
SF.net. Probably it's really simple, but how could I download the
lang FR-CA? Without using the online update, but by using the
update from local file.
Thank you

Yes, but I still would not suggest to activate such
service because you can perfectly use Drake CMS without it.

Once you have the archive you can install it. Please,
open the Language manager and click on New. Then you can upload
the archive there.

Hello,
If I reformulate my question:
How
could I download the archive from SF.net?
I've tried,
but the only package available is the Drake-cms core file,
adobe-drivers, some templates, 3 misc add-ons (chat and text
editors), and a few patches.
Where is the language
package?
thank you,
g
