Problem with SOAP and authentication? SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Unauthorized
in [General]
|
From: robert mena on 29 Jun 2010 08:58 I was hoping for a "userland" soap library (like nuSoap if I understand correctly). I can't change the fact that the remote webservice requires http auth. Hopefully someone in this list uses either zend_soap or soapClient directly with auth to confirm or deny that the problem is in this part specifically.

I'm willing to help you through this, but you have to give us something to work with. I do see that you've asked several questions here and not had the greatest of responses.
