Re: PHP5 SoapClient and Apache Axis interop

[Mark Slater <mslater@soe.ucsc.edu>]

It probably should return a fault, which is why I haven't ruled out a 
misconfiguration of Axis.

And you're right... I wasn't using the Soap 1.2, when I copied the 
client creation, I was in the middle of testing 1.2, just in case that 
was the problem. It isn't, and I'm back to the default Soap 1.1 now.

        $userService =
            new SoapClient(
                
"https://localhost:8043/whisper-server/ws/UserService?wsdl";,
                array( 'trace' => 1 ) );

With some more testing, I was able to get PHP's SoapClient to talk with 
one of the axis built-in servlets, the VersionService:

        $versionService = new SoapClient(
            "http://localhost:8000/axis/services/Version?wsdl";,
            array( 'trace' => 1 ) );

        $versionString = $versionService->getVersion();
        echo "version string = " . $versionString;

This works just fine, however it doesn't require passing any arguments. 
I'm trying to create a (simple) service that does need arguments to see 
if that works well.
