I need to process a Soap Request inside opencart 2, I built the soap request in a normal PHP file to start with and placed this in the root of my website, after I got that working I thought it would just be a case to add a function inside opencart 2 and place the soap request code in there. Now i can call the right function and the method containing the soap request but as soon as opencart try's to process the new soap client line which is :-
$newclient = new SoapClient('https://example.com/catalog/controller/soap/efiWSDL27.wsdl');
I get the following error:-
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /index.php.
Reason: Error reading from remote server
If I comment out this line, then the rest of the function runs ok, apart from anything that relies on the soap request.
So to be clear Im getting this error before I try and call the soap request further down the function, It happens purely on the new soapclient statement.
Do I need to specify any other parameters when I do the new soap client from within Opencart
I know the wsdl is reachable, Im lost on this one, like I say the exact same code will work on the same webspace in a plain php file outside of opencart. I also tried a different webservice with a remote wsdl and I still get this same error in side opencart?
please help me :)
Not Exactly The Right Answer, But the solution for me was to use the nusoap library rather than the built-in soapclient in PHP and then it worked perfectly.

I have a soap server and i want to make a login request.
https://github.com/haruntuncay/soapClient In this repo, you can see generated php code from "WSDL2PHP". How can i do a proper login request.I could not get it working.You can see what i have tried in final 20 lines of server.php.
TIA
You should definitively use a WSDL to php generator as I think you're not sending the request as it should be.
So using a WSDL to php generator, you will know exactly how to send the request and its associated parameters using PHP objects and the native PHP SoapClient class without having to deal directly with it.
I advise you to try the PackageGenerator project.
I am doing a SOAP request to a 3rd party service, using the standard PHP Soap Client and I am always getting a "Soap Fault: wrong version" error.
Still, I am able get the raw response (using $client->__getLastResponse()) and its returning Success.
I tried setting "soap_version" option to both "SOAP_1_1" and "SOAP_1_2" but still the same error. The "Content-Type" and the soap namespace was changed correctly in the new request, so it is applying the changes.
I also disabled wsdl cache.
I thought it could be a problem of the WSDL which is for SOAP 1.1 but I tried to use "Non WSDL" mode and it gives the same error.
If I made the same request using Postman, with exaclty the same message and headers everything works fine, which makes me think is some particularity or validation done by the PHP Soap Client.
Any more ideas?
Found the issue.
The 3rd party is not responding with a valid SOAP message but in plain XML, which makes the SOAP client unable to process the message and giving that error.
I´m trying to do an integration between my own PHP application, and other external software which is 'waiting for' (listening) SOAP messages. But the key question on my situation is that this software which is listening for SOAP messages only accepts RAW contents and has no method which could be called, or Wsdl to be used.
Yes I know... it´s quite strange because with SOAP you usually should send a method request with some parameters, but in this case the only that I have is a URL where I should send with SOAP message that should contain only an string (formatted in a special way which is not a problem), and then this server will return to my PHP application another SOAP message that will contain a string. And that´s all.
Seems that in my case I can not use a PHP SOAP library because I have no method (or function) to call; the only thing that I have is a URL and a string that I should pass like a parameter. I´ve been thinking of using PHP sockets to create a basic SOAP message to that 'strange soap server', but I have no clue about how to do it, or how I woule create with PHP a way to keep my application waiting for the answer comming from that external server.
Thank you so much for your help in advance.
You might be best of by just making the WSDL on your own. It isn't the most trivial thing to do, but it is well documented so you should be able to figure it out.
THere is no need to get the WSDL from the service you're sinding your requests to (it is rather better to have WSDL locally in some cases), so you just initialize the default SOAP client in PHP with that local WSDL, and off you go.
I know almost nothing about PHP. So I have a coworker doing the PHP stuff. It's not going well so I need some help.
Here is the task.
Receive a SOAP message (in this case from SalesForce) in a PHP site on Linux.
Take that soap message and simply pass it along to a web service (as a parameter) running on a windows server. Which I am writing. The reason we need to do it this way is far beyond the scope of this question. We have no choice.
The communication between the PHP page and the webservice works. The problem is taking the soap message and sending it to the method in the webservice as a parameter.
Here is the big question:
How can we accept a soap message and send it as a prameter. Even converting it to a simple string and sending that would work.
Thanks in advance.
It looks to me like you need to use a SOAP handler, and then reformat the request accordingly.
I'd suggest you start by taking a look at NuSOAP, which provides PHP SOAP support. Go here - for a nifty tutorial on NuSOAP
I have a WCF web service which allows both Basic HTTP and WS-HTTP clients, both over HTTPS using user name & password authentication. This is achieved with two bindings on the same service.
So, the service is at https://foo.com/Service.svc, the Basic HTTP (SOAP 1.1) endpoint is https://foo.com/Service.svc/Unp11, and the WS-HTTP (SOAP 1.2) endpoint is https://foo.com/Service.svc/Unp .
A client is trying to access this web service via PHP 5, using its built-in SOAP support, and is having trouble connecting to the service. He keeps getting an HTTP 400 (Bad Request) response, which tends to happen if the SOAP message is badly formed, or a SOAP 1.1 message is sent to a SOAP 1.2 endpoint (or vice versa).
I only know basic PHP so I'm having trouble helping him. I know you can create a client by doing
$client = new SoapClient('https://foo.com/Service.svc?wsdl');
but how do you specify the binding/endpoint? Are there any known issues achieving all this with PHP?
UPDATE
Ok, so I can use PHP to connect to the WCF service ok (specifying the SOAP version in the SoapClient constructor), and calling $client->__getFunctions() returns a correct list of all the web service operations.
When I try to call one using $client->__soapCall, the page just sits there loading for quite a while, and eventually returns the error "Error Fetching http headers". What exactly is this supposed to mean and how do I fix it? (Consuming the service from .Net client works perfectly.)
Just ran into this today, creating a WCF with multiple bindings for a PHP caller. Setting the location appears to allow for both the WSDL version of PHP's SoapClient and specifying a binding to use.
WCF config is (1 service with 2 bindings wsHttp and basicHttp), pretty straight-forward.
PHP code:
$client = new SoapClient("http://example.com/service.svc?wsdl");
$client->__setLocation("http://example.com/service.svc/basic");
$response = $client->MethodName(array( "paramName" => "paramValue" ... ));
We have a SOAP service which has several bindings. In C# when you add a service reference to a wsdl you get a class created for each one, but in PHP it seems you can't specify which binding you want to use - this has caused me problems when the bindings have conflicting type/method names. It does seem to generally work out OK though but I don't really know how it is dealing with it internally.
The other common problem I have had is that I always have to wrap up the parameters in loads of arrays or structs - sometimes you get a Bad Request back if the server is expecting a parameter and you haven't quite set it correctly. (see Having trouble getting my head around SOAP in PHP)
Not sure this is much help, just some thoughts. There are also some third-party Soap client implementations written in PHP that could be worth looking at, but they will be quite a lot slower.
