Zend xmlrpc error - php

Question

I have this error with Zend (v1) XmlRpc client :
Uncaught exception 'Zend_XmlRpc_Client_FaultException' with message 'Failed to parse response'.
It's the error status 651.
The call never reaches the class/method requested, it seems that the call is not fired like it was blocked or something. I'm in debug on the method called and it's not triggered.
PHP version is 5.4.
EDIT
Here is the code :
Caller class :
require_once 'library/Zend/XmlRpc/Client.php';
class FrontService
{
private $client;
public function __construct($xmlRpc)
{
$this->client = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client($xmlRpc);
}
public function call($name, $params = array())
{
return $this->client->call($name, $params);
}
}
Call to the class :
$this->_fs = new FrontService(HM_Config::getParam("amf-url"));
$editos = $this->_fs->call('getEdito',$params_home);
Code called :
include_once realpath(dirname(__FILE__) .'/..')
.'/application/bootstrap.php';
require_once '_config.php';
require_once 'DirectDbConnectionV2.php';
class FrontGateway extends DirectDbConnectionV2
{
public static $smStatic;
function __construct()
{
mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
$this->sm = self::$smStatic;
$this->log = new Log();
$this->log->set_file('amfDbConnection');
$this->log->write('construct bordel');
}
}
FrontGateway::$smStatic = $sm;
$controllerManager = $sm->get('EditoWebsiteMVC\ControllerManager');
$controllerManager->run('EditoWebsite\Controller\UIGateway', 'xmlRpc');
Code that should be executed :
namespace EditoWebsite\Controller;
use EditoWebsiteMVC\AbstractController;
use EditoWebsiteMVC\ViewRender\CLI as CLIViewRender;
use EditoWebsiteMVC\ViewRender\HTMLTemplate as HTMLTemplateViewRender;
use Zend_XmlRpc_Server as XmlRpcServer;
class UIGatewayController extends AbstractController
{
public function xmlRpcAction()
{
$svr = new XmlRpcServer();
$svr->setClass('FrontGateway');
echo $svr->handle();
exit;
}
}
The code in the getEdito method from the DirectDbConnectionV2 is never reached.
Is there something I need to enable on the server ? or a port that I need to open ?
EDIT EDIT
I should mention that the code is working on another server that I've access to, is there anything I should compare / check to maybe solve that issue ?
Thanks a lot

I don't think there's enough info to even make a guess, but let me try.
I've faced similar issue, where requests sent never reached the server. It turned out to be that Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Socket adapter is binding to an IPv6 and due to routing issues request never got to the server.
In the end, what solved the issue was:
$client->getAdapter()->setStreamContext(array(
'socket' => array('bindto' => '0:0'),
));
where $client is an instance of Zend_Http_Client.
Again, it's just a shot in the dark, but could be worth trying. :)
Edit:
In your case, you should add following to FrontService constructor:
$this->client->getHttpClient()->getAdapter()->setStreamContext(array(
'socket' => array('bindto' => '0:0'),
));
Edit Edit:
Since back on 1.9.0 there's no getAdapter on Zend_Http_Client, you have to create adapter yourself and pass it to http client:
public function __construct($xmlRpc)
{
$this->client = new Zend_XmlRpc_Client($xmlRpc);
$adapter = Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Socket();
$adapter->setStreamContext(array(
'socket' => array('bindto' => '0:0'),
));
$this->client->getHttpClient()->setAdapter($adapter);
}
Cheers.
