Creating new calendar from URL fails (file_get_contents() failed, try fsockopen)

Creating new calendar from URL fails

I try to create a new calender from this URL:

https://www.eifelverein-eupen.be/index.php?option=com_jevents&task=icals.export&format=ical&catids=0&years=0&k=38f31bbc7bff3bce9137ac0e5a56adc2

It fails with the messages:

Hinweis

file_get_contents() failed, try fsockopen

and

Fehler

Not a valid VCALENDAR data file: httpshttp://www.eifelverein-eupen.beindex.phpoptioncom_jeventstaskicals.exportformaticalcatids0years0k38f31bbc7bff3bce9137ac0e5a56adc2

Downloading the .ics file and creating the calendar from it works like a charm.

We are running:
