There seem to be two errors here, and I suspect they are issues with your server or network:

1.Verify that whatever account is executing PHP has the right permissions. /tmp should be writable by all, but there might be something weird going on. As jlmcdonald suggests, check for space. 2.From your server, verify that you have connectivity. This could be any number of reasons: DNS issues or general connectivity. You can troubleshoot these by SSHing into your server and running: Checks for DNS issues

nslookup googleapis.com Checks for general connectivity

ping googleapis.com This shouldn't be necessary, but checks to see if your server can even open an outbound socket on that port (ping = ICMP)
