As far as i see you have an error in SOAP Client.

This might be because this is not active in your php.ini

Do the following:

1. Locate php.ini in your xampp folder
2. Remove the ; from the beginning of extension=php_soap.dll
3. Restart your web server
4. Look up your phpinfo(); again and check if you see a similar picture to the one above
5. If you do, problem solved!

thanks thedd, it seems to be working but still I am facing an other issue not sure if it is related to this original post.
Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [WSDL] SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from 'C: mpp\htdocs\AXLAPI.wsdl' : failed to load external entity "C: mpp/htdocs/AXLAPI.wsdl" in C:\xampp\htdocs\FAC.php:39 Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\FAC.php(39): SoapClient->SoapClient('C:\nmpp\\htdocs\\A...', Array) #1 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\FAC.php on line 39

The Error "Couldn't load from 'C: mpp\htdocs\AXLAPI.wsdl' "

seems to be because you reffer to C: mpp not C:\xmpp or it is a copy mistake.

I would suggest you put your wsdl and php file in one folder.

The you can reffer to /AXLAPI.wsdl or create a subdirectory maybe AXL the reffer to /AXL/AXLAPI.wsdl

Hi,

Most likely you have caught this error because, you might have not enabled Soap Client in php.ini file.

SoapClient is an extension of PHP that must be enabled in your php.ini file in order to be extended,

Do the following to enable soap:

1. Locate php.ini in your apache bin folder, I.e Apache/bin/php.ini
2. Remove the ; from the beginning of extension=php_soap.dll
3. Restart your Apache server

HTH!
