Php enable soap extensions

How to Enable PHP-SOAP

PHP-SOAP is a php extension that is required in order to use our VTiger Extensions. In most cases, this php extension is already enabled and no work needs to be done. However, in cases where it’s not – you will need to install php-soap on your webserver.

Dedicated Unix Server

If you are server administrator, you will need to log into terminal (SSH) using putty and install soap.

• Ubuntu: Run “apt-get install php-soap” and restart your webserver.
• Debian: Run “apt-get install php5-soap” and restart your webserver.
• Centos: Run “yum install php5-soap” and restart your webserver.

If none of those work – please try google and see what you can come with. Every server is unique and it’s hard to explain in a tutorial that applies to all.

Shared Server (Hosting)

If your VTiger is hosted at hostgator, godaddy, deamhost, siteground, etc.. shared plan – it is your best bet to either contact the hosting provider and ask to enable php-soap, or search for instructions on their wiki/help site.

*Tip: If you have access to CPanel, you might be able to do that yourself. Find “PHP Configuration” in CPanel, open it and check the ‘php-soap’ extension in the list available. Note, this might not apply to everyone but is the most common way to enable php-soap on shared server.

Windows Servers

If your VTiger is hosted on Windows server, it is likely that your webserver already has php-soap files, but it might not be enabled. To enable the extension – locate php.ini and in the file there should be a line with ‘soap’ (just search for that in the file) and remove the ; so it’s “extension=php_soap.dll”. Once you do that, save php.ini and restart your webserver. Detailed instructions can be found here:

How to Enable —Enable-Soap in PHP on Linux

Getting SOAP working usually does not require compiling PHP from source. I would recommend trying that only as a last option.

For good measure, check to see what your phpinfo says, if anything, about SOAP extensions:

to ensure that it is the PHP extension that is missing.

Assuming you do not see anything about SOAP in the phpinfo, see what PHP SOAP packages might be available to you.

In Ubuntu/Debian you can search with:

$ apt-cache search php | grep -i soap

or in RHEL/Fedora you can search with:

$ yum search php | grep -i soap

There are usually two PHP SOAP packages available to you, usually php-soap and php-nusoap . php-soap is typically what you get with configuring PHP with —enable-soap .

In Ubuntu/Debian you can install with:

$ sudo apt-get install php-soap

Or in RHEL/Fedora you can install with:

After the installation, you might need to place an ini file and restart Apache.

enable SOAP on PHP

You may need to make sure the PHP SOAP package is installed. Try running yum install php-soap as root.

Edit: Adapted from this excellent answer to a similar question:

yum --enablerepo=webtatic install php-soap

this tells yum to get the packages from webtatic repository (in addition to system configured repositories). If you want webtatic among system enabled repositories, run:

rpm --import http://repo.webtatic.com/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-webtatic-andy
yum --enablerepo=webtatic install webtatic-release

How do I install soap extension?

For Windows

1. Find extension=php_soap.dll or extension=soap in php.ini and remove the commenting semicolon at the beginning of the line. Eventually check for soap.ini under the conf.d directory.
2. Restart your server.

For Linux

Ubuntu:

PHP7

sudo apt-get install php7.0-soap 
sudo systemctl restart apache2

sudo apt-get install php-soap
sudo systemctl restart apache2

OpenSuse:

PHP7

sudo zypper in php7-soap
sudo systemctl restart apache2

sudo zypper in php7-soap
sudo systemctl restart nginx

Enable soap for php in docker container

You will need to install libxml2-dev as part of your dockerfile, the image is kept to a minimum and doesn’t include all of the bits needed by every module. Although the image may have the main package, the -dev package includes the components needed to compile other modules which rely on it.

RUN apt-get update && \ 
apt-get install -y libxml2-dev

Just to make it clear — the command

RUN docker-php-ext-install soap

will then run successfully to install the soap library.

How to Enable PHP-SOAP Extension – Guide

European commission is now using SOAP service for VIES VAT validation. In order to validate VAT numbers on your website by using any of our VAT validation extensions, you would need to activate PHP-SOAP extension on your webserver.

Here is how to activate PHP-SOAP on your server if it’s not already installed and active.

Dedicated Unix Server

If you are server administrator, you will need to log into terminal (SSH) and proceed to begin installing soap.

Ubuntu: Run “apt-get install php-soap” and restart your web server.
Debian: Run “apt-get install php5-soap” and restart your web server.
Centos: Run “yum install php5-soap” and restart your web server.

If none of those work, we recommend reaching out to your dedicated server support team for help.

Shared Server (Hosting)

Your best bet is to ask the hosting company to enable php-soap if your website is hosted on a shared plan. If you have Cpanel access, you might be able to install PHP-SOAP from the PHP Configuration section. This setting may not be available on all servers, so it’s recommended to reach out to your server provider or look for any available documentation by the server team to install PHP-SOAP.

Windows Servers

If your website is hosted on a Windows server, it’s likely that the PHP-SOAP files already exist on your web server, though they might not be activated. To activate the extension, locate the file php.ini and look for a line beginning with “soap”; remove the ; so it reads “extension=php_soap.dll”. Save php.ini after doing so, then restart your web server. You may find more instructions here.

WooCommerce SOAP client – How to quickly enable it

Online website stores like WooCommerce use SOAP client to get data from remote servers.

And, when this PHP module is not available on the server, the WooCommerce SOAP client missing error pops up.

Enabling SOAP module requires PHP reconfiguration and any bad step can mess up all websites.

That’s why customers contact Bobcares to enable the SOAP client module on the server as part of our Server Management Services.

Today, we’ll see how our Support Engineers enable WooCommerce SOAP client and make it work.

Why we need SOAP client ?

Let’s first check on the need of SOAP client in WooCommerce.

SOAP aka Simple Object Access Protocol is a messaging protocol that allows communications between processes running on different servers. In WooCommerce, some Web services use SOAP to get information from remote servers. For instance, when you have integrated FedEx shipping method, WooCommerce require SOAP to get live shipping quotes from FedEx.

Similarly, often WooCommerce users need website form data submitted to a SOAP web service. Some Woocommerce installations need SOAP client for PayPal integrations as well.

How does WooCommerce report SOAP error?

Fortunately, WooCommerce offers a quick way to check the status of the installation.

When the SOAP client is missing, the System Status of WooCommerce on the WordPress install will show up the following message:

SoapClient: Your server does not have the SoapClient class enabled - some gateway plugins which use SOAP may not work as expected.

Steps to enable SOAP client on server

Usually, most of the shared servers come with popular PHP modules installed. However, when it is found missing in the server, our Support Engineers install it.

Let’s have a look on how we enable SOAP on the server.

On a plain CentOS server without control panel, we first install SOAP extension using:

Further, we edit the main PHP configuration file /etc/php.ini and enable the SOAP extension by uncommenting the line:

extension=/usr/lib/php/modules/soap.so

This again depends on the path of soap.so file.

Finally, we restart web server. When server has Apache, we restart it using:

After installing and enabling SOAP client we further check and verify using the following commands.

[root@host ~]# php -v PHP 7.2.21 (cli) (built: Aug 6 2019 04:24:31) ( NTS ) Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group 

[root@host ~]# php -m | grep soap soap 

Again, Bobcares Engineers always confirm that the domain’s PHPinfo page shows the SOAP extension details.

In cPanel/WHM servers, PHP SOAP extension can be enabled easily by recompiling PHP using EasyApache too.

Common Errors while enabling SOAP client

At times, even after enabling WooCommerce SOAP client,things may not work correctly. We’ll now see how our Dedicated Engineers fix them.

1. Applying SOAP extension on wrong PHP

Enabling SOAP extension on servers with multiple PHP versions often end up in errors.

Recently, a customer reported problem with his WooCommerce installation. He installed SOAP client on his server. Afterwards, when he refreshed the System Status page, the message was the same.

Here, our Dedicated Engineers checked the PHP info page of the domain and SOAP extension was missing. We found that the server had multiple PHP versions and customer enabled SOAP only for one version of PHP.

To fix the error, we had to enable SOAP for the specific version of PHP that the website was using.

2. Missing Web server restart

Similarly, missing webserver restart is yet anothet common reason for SOAP client missing error.

For the PHP configuration changes to be effective, the web server needs a restart. Therefore after enabling SOAP, we always make sure to restart the webserver. For Apache servers, we use

systemctl restart apache2

And for Nginx servers, it will be

Again, when the server has php-fpm, we make sure to restart it as well.
