#36749 [Asn]: 'Error Fetching http body' when using HTTP Proxy

ID: 36749 User updated by: robertg2 at hope dot ac dot uk Reported By: robertg2 at hope dot ac dot uk Status: Assigned Bug Type: SOAP related Operating System: Windows XP & Suse 10 PHP Version: 5.1.2 Assigned To: dmitry New Comment: Using a default install of Squid 2.5STABLE10-5 instead of Novell BorderManager for the proxy makes the SoapFault disappear. The only real difference in the response from Squid is the fact that it is HTTP/1.0. Using a default install of tinyproxy 1.6.3 - http://tinyproxy.sourceforge.net/ - makes the SoapFault reappear. The response from tinyproxy is in HTTP/1.1, like BorderManager's. So... the rule so far is: if PHP Soap is set to use a web proxy, and the proxy returns a response of type HTTP/1.1 with no Content-Length header, this SoapFault will occur.

The amazon.com ItemLookup service referred to in this report does not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-18 21:10:36] tony2001@php.net How do I know that? If you can check it out - please do it and tell us. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-18 20:56:28] robertg2 at hope dot ac dot uk That is correct. I don't pretend to have a full grasp of the problem, but may I suggest/speculate/guess that those web services that work through the proxy for me either use chunked data or specify a value in the Content-length header in their response(s). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-18 20:42:13] tony2001@php.net Wait.. so other PHP scripts using different web-service providers work fine on the same host using the same proxy? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
