PHP: Write SOAP request containing XML data and SOAPHeader

Question

Hi I've got an issue with PHP SOAP request and I'm exhausted of the samples found on the web. Following is the request XML which i need to send.

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<s:Header>
<Action s:mustUnderstand="1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ws/2005/05/addressing/none">http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/ISessionManager/Logon</Action>
<h:ContractVersion xmlns:h="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices">330</h:ContractVersion>
</s:Header>
<s:Body>
<LogonRequest xmlns="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/ServiceContracts/SessionService">
  <logonRequestData xmlns:d4p1="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/DataContracts/Session" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <d4p1:DomainCode>WWW</d4p1:DomainCode>
    <d4p1:AgentName>API****</d4p1:AgentName>
    <d4p1:Password>********</d4p1:Password>
    <d4p1:LocationCode i:nil="true" />
    <d4p1:RoleCode>APIB</d4p1:RoleCode>
    <d4p1:TerminalInfo i:nil="true" />
  </logonRequestData>
</LogonRequest>
</s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

The WSDL contains http://pastie.org/9263788

I have tried the following code

$test = array("DomainCode"=>"WWW","AgentName"=>"API****",
              "Password"=>"******","RoleCode"=>"APIB",
              "LocationCode"=>"","TerminalInfo"=>"");

$wsdl = "https://trtestr3xapi.navitaire.com/sessionmanager.svc?wsdl";

$client = new SoapClient($wsdl, array('trace' => 1,'exceptions' => true));

$header = new SoapHeader('http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/ISessionManager/Logon','ContractVersion','330', '1');
$client->__setSoapHeaders($header);

try {    
$logon_request = $client->Logon($test);
print_r($logon_request);
echo "success!";
} catch (SoapFault $soap_error) {
echo $soap_error;
echo "error!";
}

I have generated the functions using $client->__getFunctions()

 array(4) {
 [0]=>
 string(54) "void ChangePassword(ChangePasswordRequest $parameters)"
 [1]=>
 string(45) "LogonResponse Logon(LogonRequest $parameters)"
 [2]=>
 string(38) "void Logout(LogoutRequest $parameters)"
 [3]=>
 string(75) "TransferSessionResponse TransferSession(TransferSessionRequest $parameters)"
 }

And the types are in this link http://pastie.org/9289906

The link https://trtestr3xapi.navitaire.com/SessionManager.svc?xsd=xsd3 contained in the WSDL has ContractVersion information

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:tns="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices" elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices">
<xs:element name="ContractVersion" type="xs:int"/>
<xs:element name="LogonResponse">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="0" name="Signature" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:element name="Signature" nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:schema>

CODE UPDATE

$wsdl = 'https://trtestr3xapi.navitaire.com/sessionmanager.svc?wsdl';
$header = new SoapHeader('http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices','ContractVersion','330', '1');

$ns_d4p1 = 'http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/DataContracts/Session';
$ns_i = 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance';

$client = new SoapClient($wsdl, array('trace' => 1));
$client->__setSoapHeaders($header);

$logonResquestData = new SimpleXMLElement("<logonRequestData xmlns:i='$ns_i' xmlns:d4p1='$ns_d4p1' />");

$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:DomainCode', 'WWW', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:AgentName', 'APISERANGOONAT', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:Password', 'Newskies-1', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:LocationCode', null, $ns_d4p1)->addAttribute('i:nil', 'true', $ns_i);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:RoleCode', 'APIB', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:TerminalInfo', null, $ns_d4p1)->addAttribute('i:nil', 'true', $ns_i);

//var_dump($logonResquestData->asXML());

$logon_request = $client->Logon($logonResquestData);

return $logon_request;

The above code throws the following error

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [a:InternalServiceFault] LogonRequest.AgentName:LengthStringAttribute: The value of LogonRequest.AgentName:LengthStringAttribute is empty, but is not optional. in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\ezyflying.com\tiger\x.php:22 Stack trace: #0 C:\Inetpub\vhosts\ezyflying.com\tiger\x.php(22): SoapClient->__call('Logon', Array) #1 C:\Inetpub\vhosts\ezyflying.com\tiger\x.php(22): SoapClient->Logon(Object(SimpleXMLElement)) #2 {main} thrown in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\ezyflying.com\tiger\x.php on line 22

I added to the answer information about creating the data you send as a parameter to the soap request. I hope it helps you solve your issues. — helderdarocha

I rolled back the previous question. If you make radical edits that change the question your account may be flagged. If you have a new topic, create a new question addressing it and link to the previous question. — helderdarocha

Since you solved the header issue, I would actually suggest you created a new question focused on passing the parameters to the soap client. To make it easy for those who will try to answer it, you should include in the question excerpts from the relevant code, which is: the WSDL, the Schema definitions for LogonRequest, logonRequestData and each of the logonRequestData child elements. Without that information, you will have a hard time getting a good answer. Write a clear, objective question, with a clear title dealing with one problem. Your chances will be higher. — helderdarocha

The error says that the header ContractVersion from the namespace you used when declaring the header "was not understood". That's because there is probably no ContractVersion element declared in the schema for this target namespace.

According to your SOAP request ContractVersion belongs to another namespace:

<h:ContractVersion xmlns:h="http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices">

You should use that namespace when adding the header:

$header = new SoapHeader('http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices','ContractVersion','330', '1');

As for your LogonRequest data, according to the result you expect to generate you will need to add a LogonRequestData object to it. Your schema is not available and I don't know the exact syntax using the PHP API. One way would be to add the payload as literal XML. You might have to set some configuration in your SOAP client for this and I'm not sure if this is the standard recommended procedure for PHP. If you can send literal XML, then you can build a <logonRequestData> object like the one you posted using the code below:

$ns_d4p1 = 'http://schemas.navitaire.com/WebServices/DataContracts/Session';
$ns_i = 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance';

$logonResquestData = new SimpleXMLElement("<logonRequestData xmlns:i='$ns_i' xmlns:d4p1='$ns_d4p1' />");

$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:DomainCode', 'WWW', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:AgentName', 'API****', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:Password', '****', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:LocationCode', null, $ns_d4p1)->addAttribute('i:nil', 'true', $ns_i);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:RoleCode', 'APIB', $ns_d4p1);
$logonResquestData->addChild('d4p1:TerminalInfo', null, $ns_d4p1)->addAttribute('i:nil', 'true', $ns_i);

You can check if the code above generates the correct XML by printing:

print_r($logonResquestData->asXML());

Now you have to add that object to your LogonRequest object by passing it as a parameter to your Logon operation somehow. I'm not sure about the exact syntax. You might need to add a SoapParam or a SoapVar. You suggested using an array. Whatever the method, you have to test it and see if it generates the correct XML before attempting to send it. It will be easier to debug that way.

Hi! Nice to see you again stackoverflow.com/questions/24099302/…

Oh, so it's the same problem. Still didn't fix it? It's very hard to know how your request should be formed without seeing your Schema (the LogonRequest element).

I would like to give you access to my server so that you can have a look. I've created so many questions regarding the same issue :( Unfortunately I can't seek help from anybody else. Can you help me out via teamviewer? I know der should be a simple fix bu t got no idea about SOAP or XML

helderdarocha Over a year ago

Open the schema which contains an element declaration for LoginRequest. In your previous question you included it for LoginResponse, so it shouldn't be hard to find. Or you could place that schema here or in a pastebin. It would be helpful.

LogonRequest is here pastie.org/9290170 in the url trtestr3xapi.navitaire.com/SessionManager.svc?xsd=xsd0
