Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [WSDL] in php

Question

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [WSDL] SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from "url" failed to load external entity.

I am getting below error when used SoapClient in the code. How to resolve this?

Answer 1

You should double check the URL to the SOAP service you require, and that it does indeed serve a wsdl (add ?wsdl to the end of the URL and inspect in a browser).

It sounds like your SOAP Service URL is missing a WSDL (service discovery) or is not finding a valid SOAP endpoint.

If you care to share your SOAP URL I can provide example or I/others might be able to help more.

Could also be character encoding or User Agent filtering on the SOAP endpoint, have a read of this question : SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from - but works on WAMP
