Sample project Cascade's SOAP web services in PHP

Webservices-PHP-Sample-Project

This project contains example operations that can be executed through Cascade Server Web Services using PHP.

---

The php_soap library needs to be enabled to be able to execute the code.

To be able to connect to your Cascade Server instance, you should update the $soapURL with the URL to your instance's WSDL and the $auth with your username and password.

---

The "location" parameter in $client is optional - it is only needed when you are getting "Could not connect to host" error when performing operations. In that case most likely Cascade Server is using apache proxy (using mod_proxy). Sometimes when running through a proxy, the returned service endpoint (at the very bottom of the WSDL response) points to a location that is an internal hostname/port.

In that case, the PHP SoapClient is parsing the WSDL and using that service endpoint to issue requests. So even though it looks like you're connecting to the soapURL, you're actually connecting to an internal hostname/port so you might get: Could not connect to host.

The "location" param is way to manually set the service endpoint instead of letting the SoapClient figure it out from the WSDL.
