ID: 44248 Updated by: sjo...@php.net Reported By: jboffel at gmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Verified Bug Type: SOAP related Operating System: Linux RedHat Enterprise PHP Version: 5.2.9 New Comment:
Could reproduce. The SoapClient does indeed not send a Host parameter when doing a CONNECT, which is a bug because the RFC says it should. However, this causes no problems with any version of Apache I tried (1.3, 2.0, 2.2). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-01 18:55:53] jboffel at gmail dot com The thing is that Apache server follow the RFC and really block (voluntarily that is not a bug) the request (there is no workaround to force Apache to do the job or I didn't find it). You can see in the error log file that Apache ask us to follow the RFC and add the Host parameter. So basically Apache used as a proxy doesn't really "need" Host parameter but it's to avoid bug when connecting, or example, to an Apache web server which uses VirtualHost based certificates configurations with HTTPS connections... So yes it's only linked to the RFC. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-01 18:43:54] sjo...@php.net Does the Apache proxy really need the Host header? Is this bug a problem other than that it does not conform with the RFC? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-01 17:14:32] jboffel at gmail dot com Hi, Thanks for your test, but you have to do it through HTTPS connection to reproduce the bug. In fact, the bug is linked to the use of an Apache proxy through HTTPS connection and a SOAP call. If you connect through HTTP you don't do the CONNECT command and you can't see the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-01 17:11:14] sjo...@php.net I misunderstood the problem. The request I posted was for HTTP, not for HTTPS. For HTTPS, the Host header is indeed missing. I am not yet sure that that is a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-09-01 17:02:47] sjo...@php.net Thank you for your bug report. I could not reproduce your problem. It is possible it has already been fixed in the meantime. This is the request the SoapClient sends to the proxy server in my setup: POST http://ws1.webservices.nl:80/address/soap.php HTTP/1.1 Host: ws1.webservices.nl Connection: Keep-Alive User-Agent: PHP-SOAP/5.2.11RC2-dev Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 SOAPAction: "http://ws1.webservices.nl/address/soap.php/addressReeksPostcodeSearch" Content-Length: 552 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>... etc. etc. Please reopen this bug if you still have this problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
