SOAP PHP fault parsing WSDL: failed to load external entity?

Question

I\'m trying to run a web service using PHP & SOAP, but all I\'m getting so far is this:

(SoapFault)[2] message which states: \'SOAP-ERROR: Parsing

Answer 1

The problem may lie in you don't have enabled openssl extention in your php.ini file

go to your php.ini file end remove ; in line where extension=openssl is

Of course in question code there is a part of code responsible for checking whether extension is loaded or not but maybe some uncautious forget about it
