I encounter this error when sending a SOAP request with the PHP SoapClient:
Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Could not connect to host in /var/www/phpwebservice/soap-client.php:6
Stack trace:
#0 [internal function]: SoapClient->__doRequest('__call('getCatalogEntry', Array)
#2 /var/www/phpwebservice/soap-client.php(6): SoapClient->getCatalogEntry('catalog1')
#3 {main} thrown in /var/www/phpwebservice/soap-client.php on line 6
the script works fine when moving the files directly under the /var/www/ meaning:
http://localhost/soap-client.php
but when I move it to a sub-folder called phpwebservice that error appears. It doesn't matter if the sub-folder is like this:
http://localhost/phpwebservice/soap-client.php
or if I made a VirtualHost for it:
http://phpwebservice/soap-client.php
the content of soap-client.php:
$client = new SoapClient("catalog.wsdl");
$catalogId = 'catalog1';
$response = $client->getCatalogEntry($catalogId);
echo $response;
soap-server.php:
function getCatalogEntry($catalogId){
if($catalogId == 'catalog1')
return "<html>
<head>
<title>catalog</title>
</head
<body>
<p> </p>
<table border=1>
<tr>
<th>catalogid</th>
<th>journal</th>
<th>section</th>
<th>edition</th>
<th>title</th>
<th>author</th>

<tr>
<td>catalog1</td>
<td>ibm developerworks</td>
<td>xml</td>
<td>october 2005</td>
<td>jaxp validation</td>
<td>brett mclaughlin</td>

</table>
</body>
</html>";
elseif($catalogId == 'catalog2')
return "<html>
<head>
<title>catalog</title>
</head>
<body>
<p> </p>
<table border=1>

</html>";
}
ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");
$server = new soapserver("catalog.wsdl");
$server->addfunction("getCatalogEntry");
$server->handle();
