I am trying to connect to an external SOAP service using PHP and have written a small php test script that just connects to the service and performs a simple request to check everything is working.
This all works correctly but when I run via a browser request, it is very slow taking somewhere in the region of 40s to establish the initial connection. When I do the same request using the exact same script on the command line, it goes through straight away.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be?
Cheers
PHP caches the wsdl in /tmp. If you run from the command line first, the cache file will be owned by whatever user you're running the script as, and apache won't be able to read the cache. The wsdl will have to be downloaded and parsed every time which will be slow.
Check the permissions of /tmp/wsdl*.
Maybe external SOAP service trying to check your IP, and your server has ICMP allowed, when your local network - not.
Anyway, this question might be answered more clearly by administrator of external SOAP service :)
Is there a difference between the php.inis that are being used?
On a standard ubuntu server installation:
diff /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
//edit:
Another difference might be in the include paths. Had this trouble myself on a local test server, it didn't actually use the soap class that was included (it didn't include anything, because the search paths weren't valid), but it included the built-in soap_client class.

I have created a simple TibcoBW6 REST api that compiles and runs successful.
The console logs indicate that the application is running but I try to invoke the api on Postman I get no response.
Telnet the port also can't connect.
I don't know whether my HTTP configurations are Ok, here is my connector properties
and the module properties.
I've scratched my head for hours searching for help online, but nothing came up.
once your service runs succesfully, type
lendpoints
in the console tab, you can check where your service is running.
If you don't get any result, there might be some problem with use of module properties, try to write directly localhost instead of using the module properties.
Once a Login script is executed with few user, I don't see connection reset problem, whereas, when the same is run 100 users, "java.net.SocketException: Connection reset" starts throwing for very first link.
What I don't understand is if there is connection problem, then it should even show the same error for single or few users as well.
This means that your server is rejecting connections because it is either overloaded or misconfigured.
It is regular that you don't face it with 1 user and face it with 100, this is typically what load testing brings, ie simulate traffic on your server
It might be the case described in Connection Reset since JMeter 2.10 ? wiki page.
If you are absolutely sure that your server is not overloaded and is configured to accept 100+ connections (defaults are good for development, not for production, they need to be tweaked) you can try work it around as follows:
In user.properties file add the next 2 lines:
httpclient4.retrycount=1
hc.parameters.file=hc.parameters
In hc.parameters file add the following line:
http.connection.stalecheck$Boolean=true
Both files live in JMeter's bin folder.
You need to restart JMeter to pick the properties up.
Above instructions are applicable for HttpClient4 implementation, make sure you use it, the fastest and the easiest way to set HttpClient4 implementation for all the HTTP Request samplers is using HTTP Request Defaults
I've searched and found several very similar questions to mine but nothing in those answers have worked for me yet.
I have a perl CGI script that accepts a file upload. It looks at the file and determines how it should be processed and then calls a second non-CGI script to do the actual processing. At least, that's how it should work.
This is running on Windows with Apache 2.0.59 and ActiveState Perl 5.8.8. The file uploading part works fine but I can't seem to get the upload.cgi script to run the second script that does the actual processing. The second script doesn't communicate in any way with the user that sent the file (other than it sends an email when it's done). I want the CGI script to run the second script (in a separate process) and then 'go away'.
So far I've tried exec, system (passing a 1 as the first parameter), system (without using 1 as first parameter and calling 'start'), and Win32::Process. Using system with 1 as the first parameter gave me errors in the Apache log:
'1' is not recognized as an internal or external command,\r, referer: http://my.server.com/cgi-bin/upload.cgi
Nothing else has given me any errors but they just don't seem to work. The second script logs a message to the Windows event log as one of the first things it does. No log entry is being created.
It works fine on my local machine under Omni webserver but not on the actual server machine running Apache. Is there an Apache config that could be affecting this? The upload.cgi script resides in the d:\wwwroot\test\cgi-bin dir but the other script is elsewhere on the same machine (d:\wwwroot\scripts).
There may be a security related problem, but it should be apparent in the logs.
This won't exactly answer your question but it may give you other implementation ideas where you will not face with potential security and performance problems.
I don't quite like mixing my web server environment with system() calls. Instead, I create an application server (with POE usually) which accepts the relevant parameters from the web server, processes the job, and notifies the web server upon completion. (well, the notification part may not be straightforward but that's another topic.)
I have deployed a REST service on an external server (IIS7). When I start the service from VS on the Dev server it works fine. But on the server i get:
Request Error, The server encountered an error processing the request. Please see the service help page for constructing valid requests to the service.
How do I get more details on this error? I have looked in the log files directory that is configured under Logging feature for this web site in IIS Manager, but there are no files at all for this site it seems.
You should look in the Windows Event Log using the Event Viewer application (eventvwr.exe). Output to the IIS log files may be buffered so their contents may be updated after a restart, or when IIS is set to do it. Restarting IIS is a surefire way to force this.
Here is a blog post on how to do this.
I'm aware of 3 ways to get nicer errors:
Set UseVerboseErrors in InitializeService method. However, this won't give you anything if your error occurs before InitializeService is called (which happens).
Set IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults to true using an attribute before your service class.
Set IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults to true using web.config.
I'm using MAMP-pro to serve my domain to the outside world.
I'm not a very experienced sys-admin, though I've slogged my way through a few basic things. I know what apache is, and I can read-most-of but not generate-without-guide related .conf files.
I've got a perl script which I've tested from the command line and it works (outputs as desired.)
When I try to access said script from the browser, I get 404.
I've tried placing the script at:
/Users/me/Sites/mydomain.com/htdocs/mycgi.pl
/Users/me/Sites/mydomain.com/cgi-bin/mycgi.pl
/Users/me/Sites/mydomain.com/htdocs/cgi-bin/mycgi.pl
and accessing it as:
http://www.mydomain.com/mycgi.pl
http://www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/mycgi.pl
and all the various combinations, all to no avail (404.)
The script and its container directory have permissions 755.
So, what other steps am I missing? Are there any good set-up guides? I tried the MAMP-Pro manual, but it is filled with such information as "the cancel button cancels the current operation" and not really anything useful. Google turned up several hits that all seem to talk about how to make this work on localhost, but I'm trying to serve this to the outside world.
Any hints?
Thanks!
The official online documentation has a section on virtual hosts. When creating a host for www.mydomain.com you can choose the DocumentRoot which is called "Disk location" within MAMP PRO. If you still get a 404 error, take a look into the error_log for a more specific reason (i.e., where Apache tries to find the file in question).
