Ah, i got it. SOAP_Client -> asks server SOAP_Server has a parse error and crashes. If display_errors is set to on on the server you should see the message. I tried it, having display_errors set to on on the server, SOAP is not installed on the server and i get Notice: Undefined variable: options in C:\TEMP\test_soap_client.php on line 14 Call Stack: 0.0000 0 1. {main}() C:\TEMP\test_soap_client.php:0 Failed: <br /> <b>Warning</b>: main(SOAP/Server.php) [<a href='http://www.php.net/function.main'>function.main</a>]: failed to create stream: No such file or direct ory in <b>C:\websites\caladan\web\test_soap.php</b> on line <b>2</b><br /> <br /> <b>Fatal error</b>: main() [<a href='http://www.php.net/function.main'>function.main</a>]: Failed opening required 'SOAP/Server.php' (include_path='. ;c:\php\pear;xxx') in <b>C:\xxxtest_soap.php</b> on line <b>2</b><br /> I had similar problems doing XML_RPC calls, always ending up in a conf problem. hth, Arnaud. > Actually, no only for the server.
