Description:
------------
I'm trying to use a SOAP API on an embedded device, the device is responding to the SOAP request, however PHP is saying there is an error fetching headers.

Reproduce code:
---------------
SOAP Request:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /iWsService HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.201
Connection: Keep-Alive
User-Agent: PHP-SOAP/5.2.3
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
SOAPAction: "uri:zksoftware#GetDate"
Content-Length: 494
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns1="uri:zksoftware" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"><SOAP-ENV:Body><ns1:GetDate><ArgComKey xsi:type="xsd:string">0</ArgComKey></ns1:GetDate></SOAP-ENV:Body></SOAP-ENV:Envelope>


Response from SOAP Server:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Server: ZK Web Server
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-control: no-cache
Content-Type: text/xml
Connection: close

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso8859-1" standalone="no"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<GetDateResponse>
<Row Date='2006-06-24' Time='14:24:11'></Row>
</GetDateResponse>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

However PHP returns: [faultstring] => Error Fetching http headers




Expected result:
----------------
Expect PHP to parse the SOAP response properly.

I have the same problem and i would like to give some feedback too. But i can't find a way to capture the HTTP response. Any suggestions how i could do that? The soap server is 3rd party.

It seems like some kind of incompatibility between ext/soap and your soap or HTTP server. To fix the problem I need capture of HTTP response in binary form (including all special chars). Or give me a real PHP code that access buggy SOAP server so I'll able to reproduce it myself.

I emailed a TCP dump of the SOAP request/response to: dmitry@php.net

Just wanted to follow-up and make sure you got the email okay and have all the data you need to help track down the issue?

Thanks for looking into this.

I had someone look into this for me, apparently the device isn't sending the "\r\n" at the end of the header, but only "\n". 

So instead of:
if (strcmp(headerbuf, "\r\n") == 0) {

Use:
if (strcmp(headerbuf, "\r\n") == 0 || strcmp(headerbuf, "\n") == 0) {

Sorry, here is the file and line that needs changing:

ext/soap/php_http.c:1298

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

How has this been resolved? We still experience the "Error Fetching http headers" error using SoapClient.

PHP Version: 5.2.3

how about stop re-open *10 years* old bugreports at least without mentioning you PHP version and if it's below 7.0.0 you won't get any change

 [2017-03-31 14:02 UTC] maarten dot segers at amplexor dot com

PHP 7.0.15-1~dotdeb+8.1

There's a ton of blog posts out there on "Error Fetching http headers" with SoapClient but after ten years the only ticket fixing this cryptic message doesn't explain how.
