PHP SOAP server

I'm trying to build a server for another soap server to call and give back a soap response in PHP and NuSoap.

The soap service that will be sending the request is here https://supplieruatsp.testpartstrader.us.com/v2.0/services/InventoryOptionsService.svc
Now, this service will send me a request that I'm supposed to parse, then query some data and send back a response.

I have built a simple server and client for testing but I'm getting nowhere, nothing but errors from NuSoap. I am also seeing this as an error:
wsdl error: Bad path to WSDL file ://IBMSSimpleTypes.xsd

I cannot find IBMSSimpleTypes in any file on my local web server.

Not sure what the problem is as I have never written this in PHP before.

Can anyone help out here?

Server:

<?php
require_once "./lib/nusoap.php";

$server = new soap_server('InventoryOptionsService.wsdl'); // contains a local copy of the wsdl from the service

$server->service(file_get_contents("php://input"));

    function SubmitInventory($request) {
        echo $request;
        exit;
}

Client

<?php
require_once "./lib/nusoap.php";
$client = new nusoap_client("InventoryOptionsService.wsdl", true);

$error = $client->getError();
if ($error) {
    echo "<h2>Constructor error</h2><pre>" . $error . "</pre>";
}
$request = file_get_contents("RequestExample.xml");

$result = $client->call("SubmitInventory", $request);

if ($client->fault) {
    echo "<h2>Fault</h2><pre>";
    print_r($result);
    echo "</pre>";
}
else {
    $error = $client->getError();
    if ($error) {
        echo "<h2>Error</h2><pre>" . $error . "</pre>";
    }
    else {
        echo "<pre>";
        echo $result;
        echo "</pre>";
    }
}

echo "<h2>Request</h2>";
echo "<pre>" . htmlspecialchars($client->request, ENT_QUOTES) . "</pre>";
echo "<h2>Response</h2>";
echo "<pre>" . htmlspecialchars($client->response, ENT_QUOTES) . "</pre>";

Does this file exist and is it in the same folder as the server script?

InventoryOptionsService.wsdl

Open in new window

Same for client.

Yes to both, all in same folder

I actually downloaded all the XSD files into that directory, too

Can you post it so we can test.

Also confirm you have the latest NuSoap library from here (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nusoap/)

What version of PHP are you on

Need the above to replicate issue.

I have downloaded latest NuSoap, PHP version is 5.6.31.
I'm sorry but I cannot post to public because I don't have access, yet. I'm developing locally on WAMP and then testing on LAMP in VirtualBox before deployment.

What's funny is it says it can't find file://IBMSSimpleTypes.xsd

I did download a file named BMSSimpleTypes.xsd...

I meant can you post the wsdl file - the one that defines your SOAP interfaces.

It is essentially the one you would get by visiting the service URI:

Julian, I'm going to close this question as I've decided to use the Zend SOAP extension due to Exception handling. do you have any experience with it?
