Thanks for the details! I will be waiting for a binary distribution of WSF/PHP to be available. When do you think that will be?

Just trying to answer the questions in brief.

When you download WSF/PHP axis2/c will be packed within the distribution (inside wsf_c/axis2 directory). In fact it is correct to mention wsf/php as an extension to PHP. And Axis2/C (and all the other projects like Apache Rampart/C, Sandesha/C) is like embeded in WSF/PHP to get the web services functionality. You need web server (apache or IIS) to run PHP. And WSF/PHP will run on there as an extension to PHP. So there are 2 steps of configurations. 1. Configure Apache to run PHP (i.e. httpd.conf) 2.

So I assume I need to install that as well. Yes. WSF/PHP uses libxml library.

To run PHP stocktrader (in the stonehenge turnk), you need to install WSF/PHP from SVN trunk[1], You can't use wsf/php 2.0.0 (the latest distribution) as we have updated stocktrader to use some wsdl mode API changes in post wsf/php 2.0. I think this should be updated in the WSF/PHP intallation guide as well. You need to get the WSF/PHP source from the svn and build it. Meanwhile I will check the possibility of hosting a nightly build of windows binary.
