Hi guys,
I created a simple wsdl web service. Everything works fine, but when I fill
the fields with accents and send the soap request, the PHP returns me an
error:
*Fatal error*: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [Client] SOAP-ERROR: Encoding:
string 'ol\xe1...' is not a valid utf-8 string in PATH\cilent.php 16 Stack
trace: #0 [internal function]: SoapClient->__call('Send', Array) #1
PATH\cilent.php(16): SoapClient->Send(Array) #2 {main} thrown in *
PATH\cilent.php* on line *16*
I tested this same request using the eclipse web service explorer(It's a
java client web service inside the eclipse IDE) and the response was ok.
I found few topics about this issue on the google. One related solution to
this problem is use the utf8_encode() function. I tried add this function
before to send the soap request but didnt worked.
I think that this problem is in the PHP soap client because using the
eclipse web service explorer it works fine.
Here is my php soap client:
$client = new SoapClient('http://app/webservice.wsdl');
$return = $client->Send(array('token' => '123123', 'message' => array(
'text' => 'This is a string with special characters á é í ó ú', 'dest' =>
'John', 'sender' => 'Augusto')));
As I said I tried to use the utf8_encode() here:
$return = $client->Send(array('token' => '123123', 'message' => array(
'text' => utf8_encode('This is a string with special characters á é í ó ú'),
'dest' => 'John', 'sender' => 'Augusto')));
But the problem still.
I tried also add the propertie defencoding in the soap server:
$server->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
But still not working.
What I'm missing?
Thanks
