Hello, I am working with the SOAP package of PHP and I am trying make a connection from a hosted website to a server in our office. I can get to the server perfectly fine from within our office, but I cannot connect from the eternal site. I have checked and I am certain that the firewall for the server is open. When I attempt to use the login page that I have created for the website I am getting the following error message: Connect Error to XX.XX.XX.XXX:8080 Where XX.XX.XX.XXX mask the actual ip address of the server. I have tried to interogate all the values that soap_fault documents that it can return and the only information I have been able to find beside the above message, which is the $errorstring, is that my $faultcode = "HTTP". The information that I am getting is very cryptic. if I include our ip address when I search I get no results. If I put in connect error :8080 I get millions of meaningless results. Can someone please help to figure out how to get more meaningful information from soap_fault for this problem so that I can figure out how to fix it. Thank you Eric H.
