Unable to import domain because of file_get_contents() error.

Problem: I am getting the following warning while trying to import domains

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /my-domain-list-admin.php on line n
Warning: file_get_contents(http://my-domain-list.com/api/index.php/whoisapi/domain/id/godaddy.com/format/json) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /my-domain-list-admin.php on line n

Solution: This error is caused when your server configuration file (php.ini) sets the allow_url_fopen to OFF. This variable is responsible for disallowing include files to use absolute file paths. Set this variable to ON and it should work.

If the variable is already set to ON, dropp the php.ini file in the wp-admin folder with the variable set to ON and it should work.
