Problems with soap php call because of xml error

Question

i'm trying to make a soap call to a web service to pass shipping data. Here is the request i'm sending so far:

<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:ns1="http://weblabeling.gls-italy.com/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:enc="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding">
    <env:Body>
        <ns1:AddParcel env:encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding">
        <!-- bof shipping array --->
            <XMLInfoParcel>
                <Info>
                    <SedeGls>XXXX</SedeGls>
                    <CodiceClienteGls>XXXXX</CodiceClienteGls>
                    <PasswordClienteGls>XXXXXX</PasswordClienteGls>
                    <Parcel>
                        <CodiceContrattoGls>XXXXXX</CodiceContrattoGls>
                        <RagioneSociale>XXXXXX</RagioneSociale>
                        <!-- other stuff here -->
                    </Parcel>
                </Info>
            </XMLInfoParcel>
            <!-- eof shipping array --->
        </ns1:AddParcel>
    </env:Body>
</env:Envelope>

this is instead what webservice is asking me

    <soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap12="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
      <soap12:Body>
        <AddParcel xmlns="http://weblabeling.gls-italy.com/">
          <XMLInfoParcel>string</XMLInfoParcel>
        </AddParcel>
      </soap12:Body>
    </soap12:Envelope>

I always get as response xml format error.

What is wrong? Shipping array is correct and match perfectly the request one.

Thanks in advance.

Edited:

Here is how i build xml:

//inseriamo i dati nei corretti array
$Label = array(
                'XMLInfoParcel' => array(
                'Info' => array(
                    'SedeGls' => $SedeGls,
                    'CodiceClienteGls' => $CodiceClienteGls,
                    'PasswordClienteGls' => $PasswordClienteGls,                
                    'Parcel' => array(
                                       'CodiceContrattoGls' => $cod_cont,
                                       'RagioneSociale' => $rag_soc,
                                       'Indirizzo' => $delivery_indirizzo,
                                       'Localita' => $delivery_city,
                                       'Zipcode' => $data['delivery_postcode'],
                                       'Provincia' => $data['zone_code'],
                                       'Bda' => '',
                                       'DataDocumentoTrasporto' => '',
                                       'Colli' => '1',
                                       'Incoterm' => '',
                                       'PesoReale' => '1,00',
                                       'ImportoContrassegno' => $imp_cont,
                                       'NoteSpedizione' => $data['customers_telephone'],
                                       'TipoPorto' => 'F',
                                       'Assicurazione' => $ass_ins,
                                       'PesoVolume' => '',
                                       'TipoCollo' => $tipo_collo,
                                       'FrancoAnticipata' => '',
                                       'RiferimentoCliente' => '',
                                       'NoteAggiuntive' => '',
                                       'CodiceClienteDestinatario' => '',
                                       'Email' => '',
                                       'Cellulare1' => $telefono_1,
                                       'Cellulare2' => '',
                                       'ServiziAccessori' => '',
                                       'ModalitaIncasso' => $mod_inc    
                                      ),),),                                
                );


$dom = new DOMDocumentExt('1.0', 'utf-8');              
$chiamta = $dom->loadArray($Label);
$dudy = $dom->saveXML();

@Iserni i put ---> only here, this is not in my code, i'm going to Test the online tool, i really don't see errors.

I still get error of xml format, any other clue guys?

Edited:

I just noticed my request has:

<ns1:AddParcel env:encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding">

while the required is:

<AddParcel xmlns="http://weblabeling.gls-italy.com/">

So i noticed also in envelope there is something different with namespaces. Could it be the problem?

WSDL seems to not work on gls server, they did not provide any info in documentation about it.

Edited:

Maybe i'm dumb but this is the request xml schema:

schema

So now shall i place more whitespace before ? What do you think? and if so how?

I think you should add the relevant code how you create the Soap Request XML. — hakre

php is a nightmare with soap.... i'd suggest you to adapt the nusoap library to your proyect, and see how it makes the xml to perform it — Tony

Ah no, php Soap is pretty much okay. Also if you look in the question you can see that Fabio is pretty close already. — hakre

@Fabio: Everything but <XMLInfoParcel> element look good. If you add the code how you create the request, especially adding that one is useful for your question. — hakre
– hakre, Commented Oct 28, 2012 at 19:56
yes i think i'm pretty close. I actually do generate xml with a class, data are stored in db. i'm gonna add a part of the script — Fabio

You have three errors in your XML, but you can easily find them (and future ones) using xmllint (also online).

Basically, your XML comments ought to end with --> and not --->, and you should check tag opening/closing.

Also, the request is for <XMLInfoParcel>string</XMLInfoParcel>, but that is not what you're sending...?

I thought those comments have been added in the question to make visible about which part OP is concerned. But maybe you're right.

LSerni Over a year ago

I too had this doubt; same goes for the 'string', I expected a different error from "XML Format Error". Unless the GLS code rejects any error at all as "XML format error".

hakre Over a year ago

I smell the typical problem how to setup the value for the parameter. It should be a string, but here in the request is a complex type. That can happen if an array is put in when creating a kind of SoapVar.

Fabio Over a year ago

@Iserni: <XMLInfoParcel>string</XMLInfoParcel> actually i didn't no include all the request structure anyway i just added array in my question, you can see from there what it requires.

Why don't you use the standard way to create a correct request? Why do you make use of that $gls->buildXMLRequest()? Is there a specific reason you don't use the WSDL and let SoapClient do the work for you?
