Read output from a SOAP call

  • 772

I have a php array that I send to a SOAP service, but the service returns an error

$params = ["key1"=>"value 1", "key2" => "value 2"];
$soap = new SoapClient($url, ["trace"=>true]);
$data = $soap->metodo($params);

This operation returns me:

Server was unable to read request. ---> There is an error in XML document (2, 461). ---> The string '' is not a valid AllXsd value.

Understanding that the message indicates that there is an error in the XML format, what I want is to manually validate the resulting XML that is sent to the SOAP service.

How can I generate an output of the resulting XML that is sent to the service? If possible, I would like to obtain it before sending it to the SOAP service to be able to validate it. I have tried to make a "trace" in "SoapClient" but apparently, because the process aborts its execution... I cannot obtain any other data from the process that will help me to obtain the resulting XML that is sent to the service.

Thanks in advance!

    <?php
// below $option=array('trace',1);
// correct one is below
$option=array('trace'=>1);

$client=new SoapClient('some.wsdl',$option);

try{
  $client->aMethodAtRemote();
}catch(SoapFault $fault){
  // <xmp> tag displays xml output in html
  echo 'Request : <br/><xmp>',
  $client->__getLastRequest(),
  '</xmp><br/><br/> Error Message : <br/>',
  $fault->getMessage();
}
?>

    Take a look at the SoapClient documentation.
