Re: [SOAP] Soap Method Call Woes!

hi guys, i'm having a real problem trying to get my soap client to send a correctly formatted envelope to the web service i need to use. below is the request that i'm using and the response received. i'm assuming that the problem is the fact that the function name is being closed prematurely (<ns1:LoginRegisteredUser/>) when it should be wrapping the username and password parameters. i get this response using both the login name direct ($client->LoginRegisteredUser) and using __soapCall also. Can you send the PHP code that you used? Only the line with __soapCall would do.

That would help to see what is going wrong. Samisa...

Request : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="http://hiddenforsecurity.co.uk/webservices/"><SOAP-ENV:Body><ns1:LoginRegisteredUser/><UserName>some.name@blah.co.uk</UserName><Password>test</Password></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope> Response: <Result><ErrorMessage>Parameter UserName Missing</ErrorMessage><ErrorNumber>10240</ErrorNumber><Source>Contacts Data Access XML</Source><Module>XMLLogin</Module><Method>LoginRegisteredUser</Method></Result> i've read that this is a php bug, along with the fact that it ignores the first parameter (which also seems to be happening to me. i need to put a 'null' as the first element of my param array or only the Password param is sent... the 'null' seems to shunt them up passed this ignored element so as to include the UserName param). is there anyway that i can build and send the envelope manually so as to test my theory/implement a solution? i'm considering using nuSoap, which i used a few years ago but assumed things had moved on from there and don't wanna have to regress... any ideas/pointers gratefully received as solving these problems is really urgent!!! thanks for listening, rob ganly
