[Myatu]

Glad you got it working

[RapidSpeeds]

Nice one Myatu, spot on as always.

[jonlewi5]

Haha yeah i guess this is the perfect time to fiddle with the cloud so i can quickly delete and try again.

Thanks so so much for your help though!

EDIT

AHA
Yip, it was something with my setup, just setup a vm and tested, now getting

login successfull

array(0) {
}

Thanks very much myatu!

Oh well bed time now haha THANKS!!

[Myatu]

You've baffled me. I just tried it on another machine (PHP 5.3.2, clean install) and worked without modification... Must be getting late

[jonlewi5]

hmm same error again.

And im not getting any errors in my logs either?

Sorry to be a pain haha

[Myatu]

Hmm, try commenting out

if ( !$session ) 
  throw new Exception('Could not create a session'); 

and

 if ( !$result ) 
  throw new Exception ('Could not get a list of domains'); 

... It probably doesn't like doing a check like that on an object (I did say it was Quick and Dirty )

[jonlewi5]

Ahh yeah, i see what you mean.

The error is

Oh crap: Object id #2

Iv double checked phpinfo and im getting

OpenSSL support 	enabled
OpenSSL Version 	OpenSSL 0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 01 Jul 2008

soap
Soap Client 	enabled
Soap Server 	enabled

Directive	Local Value	Master Value
soap.wsdl_cache	1	1
soap.wsdl_cache_dir	/tmp	/tmp
soap.wsdl_cache_enabled	1	1
soap.wsdl_cache_limit	5	5
soap.wsdl_cache_ttl	86400	86400

Im sure itll be something my end

Thanks very much

[Myatu]

Goes straight to "oh crap"

Haha! It'll tell you what the error was right after that. You probably don't have the SOAP module enabled/compiled in - check with

(); ?>

[jonlewi5]

Cheers again myatu.

Goes straight to "oh crap"

Must be something my end, guess i should give up and have another crack at it tomorow

Thanks very much.

Here's a quick & dirty example, using PHP5. Note that you need to have the SOAP and OpenSSL modules available.

try {
 /* Do we have the required stuff
  * For example in Windows' php.ini: extension=php_soap.dll and extension=php_openssl.dll
  */
 if ( !class_exists('SoapClient') )
   throw new Exception('No SOAP client available.');

 $soap = new SoapClient('https://www.ovh.com/soapi/soapi-re-1.10.wsdl');

 // Use SOAPI function "login" to create a session in "en"glish:
 $session = $soap->login('yourid1234-ovh', 'NotSoSecretPa$$word', 'en');
 
 // Did we get a session ID?
 if ( !$session )
  throw new Exception('Could not create a session');

 // We got a session ID if we reach this point    
 echo "login successfull\n";

 // Use SOAPI function "domainList" to get a list of our domains with OVH:
 $result = $soap->domainList($session);
 
 // And was this function call successful?
 if ( !$result )
  throw new Exception ('Could not get a list of domains');

 // Yes it was, dump what we've received:
 echo "";

 var_dump($result);

 echo "";

 // Close the session using the "logout" SOAPI function:
 $soap->logout($session);

} catch(Exception $error) {
 // We reach this in case there's been an error
 echo "Oh crap: " . $error;
}

?>

You can easily wrap this into a generic function, or even a class if you wish.

Another note: OVH will send you e-mails on each login/session. You can change this behaviour from the OVH Manager.

PS: Word of advice: try not hardcoding the password

[jonlewi5]

Just wondering if someone could post some example code using the ovh soapi in php.

Im just trying to get my head around it and am struggling

Thanks.
