The Old "Received empty response from Moodle" Problem

My version of Joomdle is 0.91 and the Version of Moodle is 2012120303.03
I cannot connect to Moodle. I continue to get the message "Received empty response from Moodle" when I do the system test. I have carefully rechecked the installation instructions for preparation and installation forJoomdle into Joomla and Moodle and also the Sustem Health Check list. I have checked the url using the config file. All the required php functions are enabled.
The moodle Url in the Joomdle configuration is moodle.liberatingwebsites.com.au/moodle
The Joomla website url in the Joomdle plugin for Moodle is ' liberatingwebsites.com.au/ '
The connection method is cURL in both cases.
I have disabled the RSS Firewall.
All the other items on the System check are green.
I am open to suggestions.
Thanks

Hi John

That message basically means that Joomla cannot connect with Moodle. There could be many reasons for this, but most of the time the reason is either url or network. I cannot comment on the network, however, on your url you may wish to try without moodle. at the beginning at this is a different domain than liberatingwebsites.com.au, so try libertaingwebsites.com.au/moodle/ (with and without the forward slash). If it is not the url, it is likely to be a network related issue.

Still no luck. Here is a log of everything I have done recently trying to resolve this:

Hostpapa support replied:
"We do not have any such restrictions.
Accessing liberatingwebsites.com.au/Test_new.php is getting moodle page with the example code that was provided. So moodle should be working with the Joomla page.
Also, xmlrpc is installed on our server."
I am open to further suggestions

This gives the wrong error, indicating some problem in web services configuration:

liberatingwebsites.com.au/moodle/webservice/xmlrpc/server.php

Also:

> 36. Entered liberatingwebsites.com.au/index.php?opti...server&format=xmlrpc in Chrome Browser - simply went to website - no error

That is also an error. You should get a page showing a error.
