Default power steering pump line leaking

I put a high pressure line with a 90* fitting on my power steering pump and came back next weekend to see that was leaking. Is it missing an insert of some sort or not tight enough or wrong fitting? here is a pic of the hose and fitting:

Power steering can run up to 1500psi. You'll need to have a hydraulic hose shop make you one. I've never had any luck making my own PS hose from AN fittings.

That is what I was starting to think. I just found a guy local that can do it, and I don't think it costs that much. Sucks that I got that line and fittings though, those things are not cheap
