I am trying to write a client in php to talk to a webservice by sending 4 strings as a complex type and then supposed
to return an array with 2 elements for each brand in the array (code, name).Using latest ver. of php with nusoap lib.

Below is copy of the wsdl.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

</definitions>

I am unsure if the WSDL is correct , but I was able to use SOAPUI 1.7.6 , a java app,
to connect , input the data for the 4 strings and then get a successful return.
All I get when I try the php client is an error

Code:

HTTP Error: Unsupported HTTP response status 405 Method not allowed (soapclient->response has contents of the response)

client

Code:

<?php
require_once('./lib/nusoap.php');
$client = new nusoap_client("http://www.mycompany.com/soap", false);
$err = $client->getError();
if ($err) {
echo '<h2>Constructor error</h2><pre>' . $err . '</pre>';
echo '<h2>Debug</h2><pre>' . htmlspecialchars($client->getDebug(), ENT_QUOTES) . '</pre>';
exit();
}
//below are the definitions
$brandlistReqData = array(
'xmlUser' => '1',
'xmlPassword' => '2',
'serviceName' => '3',
'serviceMode' => '4'
);
$params = array('datasent' =>
         new soapval('datasent',
            'getbrandlist',
            $brandlistReqData,
            false,
            'http://mycompany.com/soap')
         );
$result = $client->call('getbrandlist', $params, 'datasent','urn:Getbrandlistwsdl', 'this_is_header_env');
if ($client->fault) {
echo '<h2>Fault</h2><pre>'; print_r($result); echo '</pre>';
} else {
$err = $client->getError();
if ($err) {
   echo '<h2>Error</h2><pre>' . $err . '</pre>';
} else {
   echo '<h2>Result</h2><pre>'; print_r($result); echo '</pre>';
}
}
echo '<h2>Request</h2><pre>' . htmlspecialchars($client->request, ENT_QUOTES) . '</pre>';
echo '<h2>Response</h2><pre>' . htmlspecialchars($client->response, ENT_QUOTES) . '</pre>';
echo '<h2>Debug</h2><pre>' . htmlspecialchars($client->getDebug(), ENT_QUOTES) . '</pre>';
?>

I was actually trying to do this with excel, but couldn't be done.
Very new to this.
can anyone help point me in the right direction as to the structure of correct code for the client.
Thank You Question

Finally got the client to work.
Before , I was trying to serialize the envelope and use nusoap at the same time.
First I included the libs for Nusoap, then
I let nusoap read and then cache the wsdl and then hard code the parameters into the client.

Code:

require_once('lib/nusoap.php');
require_once('lib/class.wsdlcache.php');

I invoked the client and it returned the response array successfully.

Code:

$result = $client->call('getbrandlist', $datasent);

This was actually simpler than what I was doing before.
/*
Does anyone know if its possible to hard code a constant into the WSDL so the client
doesn't need to pass it?
*/
Thanks.
Still learning about this stuff . Wink
