(I was led astray by the article at http://www.evolt.org/article/The_PEAR_SOAP_Implementation/21/49993/, which you have no control over but which is the second hit on Google for PEAR::SOAP.) Two more questions: 1. For a PHP PEAR::SOAP client, is $ret = $soapclient->something ... if (is_object($ret) && get_class($ret) == 'soap_fault') { ... the proper way to test for a fault coming back from the call, or is there something simpler? 2. With your correction above, Java Apache Axis clients are now interpreting faults correctly. But Perl SOAP::Lite clients are still not; they give a diagnostic and then the full XML fault packet: [jls@oshea perl]$ perl hello2-php.pl foo Unrecognized type '{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}QName' <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <SOAP-ENV:Fault> <faultcode xsi:type="xsd:QName">SOAP-ENV:12345</faultcode> <faultstring xsi:type="xsd:string">Do not pass me foo!</faultstring> <faultactor xsi:type="xsd:anyURI"></faultactor> <detail xsi:type="xsd:string"></detail></SOAP-ENV:Fault> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> at hello2-php.pl line 10 Do you know what the "Unrecognized type '{http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}QName'" diagnostic is about? Is this a known interop problem? Thanks again, Jonathan Schilling Caldera/SCO
