I am getting the same error when creating soap client of a web service with https. Did anyone find any solution?

I have the same problem here. It's all served by an actual xampp installation on win2k servers.
The constructor is able to retrive the document per http and local file acess.
The https case procuses after a timeout minute following warning and not shown followup errors:

Warning: SoapClient::__construct(https://www.js.vertriebsunion.de/VuJournalService/Authentifizierung.asmx?WSDL) [function.--construct]: failed to open stream

Hi,

Having similar problem on Windows XP Pro:

Apache 2.2.8
PHP 5.2.5
OpenSSL 0.9.8g

In my case the connectiion works once, then fails on the next connection attempt.  I then have to restart apache because the soapserver becomes completely unresponsive.

I am also having the same problem in PHP 5.2.5. the procedure code at the end of the message works for HTTP but fails with HTTPS with the message:
SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from 'https://arcweb.esri.com/services/v2/Authentication.wsdl' ....



Reproduce code:
---------------
$client = new SoapClient(
"https://arcweb.esri.com/services/v2/Authentication.wsdl" );
echo( $client->getVersion( ) );

I'm having the same problem with a linux box running php 5.2.5 and a win xp box running the same version. Has anybody found the solution for this problem yet? Thanks.


Pejus

I have solved this problem on Windows XP by replacing the following .dll files in the System32 folder with their versions located in the php folder:

libeay.dll
ssleay32.dll

For some reason an error was logged in my Apache error log that said OpenSSL was not being loaded, replacing these files solved the problem for me.

I've cracked this, problem was with my php configuration. Needed to 
recompile using

-with-openssl

now working fine on Mac os 10.4.11 with php 5.2.6

I have the same bug on:

The is no matter in which mode PHP is running. The problem take place as well on Apache handler (libphp mode) and CGI/FastCGI modes.


The error looks like in:
 - Apache error_log :

$result = $client->__getFunctions();

}
else {
    var_dump($result);
}
?>



We investigated the problem very close and discovered that the reason is with libxml libraries statically compiled into PHP.
Details: PHP is compiled with the following XML related options:
--with-xml=/hsphere/shared
--with-libxml-dir=/hsphere/shared
--with-xmlrpc=shared

If libxml2 static library is available in the {prefix} directory (libxml2.a), PHP includes libxml2 library into itself at buildtime.
In that case, soap FAILS to work with https.

If libxml2 shared library is available in the {prefix} directory (libxml2.so), PHP doesn't includes libxml2 library into itself at buildtime, but seach the library at runtime.
In that case, soap works with https fine.

Please let me know if more details required.
Also please advise the issue solution.

SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from 'http://192.168.0.14:8080/rpc/soap/jirasoapservice-v2?wsdl' : failed to load external entity "http://192.168.0.14:8080/rpc/soap/jirasoapservice-v2?wsdl"

resolve：
I found the problem was related to linux configuration. 

The firewall is enabled on my server: policy type is targeted, enforcing current is checked and HTTPD scripts to connect to the network were not allowed.

linux:
$setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on 

I checked it and it is working now.

It is present in PHP v5.4.29 on mac but it is not a bug. It solves by installing openssl extension;
But would be nice to know why lib can't load external url! Is it connection problem in some cases or protocol https does not support as in my case.
