ffmpeg url put to remote internet url (not localhost)

I successfully used the recorder in OBS to put, using the ffmpeg options, http live segments to a localhost server in order to view them through a html video element. However, when I bring the script online in order for OBS to post to a remote online server, I get the message:

An unspecified error occurred while recording.
Error opening [internet address]: Input/output error

I tried both http and https. It looks like OBS or ffmpeg does not connect to a remote URL. Any ideas?

To clarify, I use the recorder to create an Apple hls http livestream that is uploaded via a put request to a webserver using OBS recorder. It is as such a livestream through the recorder.
