#29999 [Opn->Bgs]: SOAP complains about strings not being valid utf-8

ID: 29999 Updated by: rrichards@php.net Reported By: kore at mindwipe dot org -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: SOAP related Operating System: linux PHP Version: 5.0.1 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. xmlCheckUTF8 is broken in libxml2-2.6.13. Either use an older version or the latest from cvs where it's been fixed.

Now the code works with 5.0.0 compiled against libxml2-2.6.13 but not with 5.0.1. It's the function xmlCheckUTF8 (in libxml2) that returns the value causing the error message. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $client = new SoapClient("http://xml.whereisthatip.com/ip-location-service.wsdl"); $queryresult = $client->getLocationRequest("192.48.96.9"); echo "$queryresult\n";; ?> Expected result: ---------------- US Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [SOAP-ENV:Client] SOAP-ERROR: Encoding: string '192.48.96.9' is not a valid utf-8 string in /data/www/PRO/html/pcs/test.php:5 Stack trace: #0 /data/www/PRO/html/pcs/test.php(5): SoapClient->getLocationRequest('getLocationRequ...', Array) #1 {main} thrown in /data/www/PRO/html/pcs/test.php on line 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29999&edit=1
