Hi

How can I run in PhpED a html file which has a SOAP request all configured and included from a php file?

In a browser on localhost the SOAP request works perfectly, but run this file in PhpED and I get this message: "You are missing the PHP SoapClient. Please re-compile PHP with Soap enabled.".

At the moment I'm editing the file in PhpED and then running an external browser to see the results.

Any ideas on how to integrate my SOAP configuration into PhpED?

Thanks

When debugging are you using the PhpED built-in SRV Server, Apache (eg WAMP), or PHP on IIS?

The built-in SRV Server might be missing something (it certainly has some differences compared with Apache such as session timeout issues) and I do recommend Apache with PHP, which works great on Windows.

Yes. I'm using the built-in SRV Server. How do I find out what could be missing?

I've run phpinfo in PhpED, but I don't know what to look for?

Thanks

When I looked at SRV, it didn't appear to be very configurable and I didn't find it satisfactory for testing web applications. On the other hand, it uses a normal PHP configuration, so you should be able to add extensions to that just like for any other PHP.

I don't use SOAP myself, but for Windows PHP you can try looking for php_soap.dll and add that to the php.ini that is used when PHP is loaded by SRV. The output from your phpinfo will tell you which php.ini to update.

Alternatively, have a look at NuSOAP, which NuSphere themselves wrote.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/nusoap/
http://forum.nusphere.com/nusoap-soap-library-f7.html

It's a shame NuSphere don't respond to forum questions anymore, because they could probably give a good answer.

Hi plugnplay

Thanks for the advice.

The SOAP I'm using is all set up by some one else. I gain access to it via a php based API. I had hoped that I could avoid all the this extra work and just use PhpEdit. I know that's life and all that, but it just gets to me sometimes

When I find an answer I'll post it here.

Hi

Found the answer. I removed the semi-colon from this line of code in the php.ini file:

;extension=php_soap.dll

Now my SOAP API code works.

Don't know how this action effects the 'NuSoap Client' software though?
