SoapFault exception: Could not connect to host

Question

Sometimes fail to call the web service.

This problem happens all the time.

What could be the problem?

Error:
    SoapFault exception: [HTTP]          


        

Answer 1

A misconfigured service leaves the default namespace with tempuri.org

This means the connection to the wsdl will work, but the function call will fail.

Stacktrace:

SoapClient->__doRequest('http://example.com...', 'http://tempuri.org....', 2, 0)

To remediate this, you must explicitly set the location using __setLocation()

$this->soapClient = new \SoapClient(WS_URL);
$this->soapClient->__setLocation(WS_URL);
