PHP Bug Type: SOAP related
Bug description: SOAPClient does not report an error if server returns an
empty document
Description:
------------
SOAPClient does not report an error when it issues a request to a server
and that server returns an empty document instead of a valid SOAP
response.
In the client.php script below, setting $break_me=false results in
SOAPClient not reporting an error. Setting $break_me=true results in the
SOAPFault 'looks like we got no XML document'. Both cases should return
this error.
Reproduce code:
---------------
server.php:
<?php
$break_me = false;
if ($break_me)
echo "Corrupt XML data";
?>
client.php:
<?php
$client = new SoapClient(dirname(__FILE__) . '/soaptest.wsdl',
array('exceptions' => false));
$ret = $client->Test123();
if (is_soap_fault($ret))
echo "SOAP Fault: " . $ret->faultstring;
else
echo "Result: '$ret'";
?>
soaptest.wsdl:

Expected result:
----------------
$ret in client.php should be a SOAPFault indicating that the server did
not return an XML document
Actual result:
--------------
$ret == null, resulting in output of "Result: ''"
There is no way do distinguish this null value from a null value
legitimately returned by a function on the SOAP server.
