Send SOAP XML via curl, PHP






This has been bugging me for days, i'm trying to send a SOAP post via curl but i just keep getting a 'couldn't connect to host' error but i really cant see how.








I have an asp version which works fine with the same url and data, i think it's just a php/curl thing...? I currently have the following code (the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS data is a valid soap envelope string)







$soap_do = curl_init();

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_URL, "https://xxx.yyy.com:517/zzz.asmx" );

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_POST, true );

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '<soap:Envelope>...</soap:Envelope>');

curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8', 'Content-Length: '.strlen('<soap:Envelope>...</soap:Envelope>') ));



if(curl_exec($soap_do) === false)

{

$err = 'Curl error: ' . curl_error($soap_do);

curl_close($soap_do);

return $err;

}

else

{

curl_close($soap_do);

return 'Operation completed without any errors';

}







So any ideas why it just errors all the time?





The asp version works fine! The code is;





Set xmlhttp = server.Createobject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")


xmlhttp.Open "POST","https://xxx.yyy.com:517/zzz.asmx"


xmlhttp.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8"


xmlhttp.Send('<soap:Envelope>...</soap:Envelope>')

  1. Thanx a lot buddy, your code has worked for me.

    Here is the code:

    $soap_do = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_URL, $url );
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10);
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true );
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_POST, true );
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_string);
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8', 'Content-Length: '.strlen($post_string) ));
    curl_setopt($soap_do, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $user . ":" . $password);

    $result = curl_exec($soap_do);
    $err = curl_error($soap_do);

  2. Try and set the port number using CURLOPT_PORT as perhaps it's not liking it as part of the URL?

  3. I had to use

    $headers = array(
    "Content-type: text/xml;charset=\"utf-8\"",
    "Accept: text/xml",
    "Cache-Control: no-cache",
    "Pragma: no-cache",
    "SOAPAction: \"run\"",
    "Content-length: ".strlen($xml),
    );


    and

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);

  4. For those finding this from Google, I ran into a similar problem, trying to interact with a .NET SOAP server from PHP, when the ASP method worked fine.

    I used a packet sniffer to see what the ASP client was sending, exactly, and noticed it included cookies after the initial authentication request. So I enabled cookies in my cURL and it worked fine.

    $cookiePath = tempnam('/tmp', 'cookie');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookiePath);

  5. Your also using the wrong Content-type, application/xml is the correct type. But that shouldn't make any difference to the cURL request.

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
