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.

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.
