Re: SOAPpy.Types.faultType: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array

[Tamer Higazi]

Hi Chris!
The example from the website is buggy because the WSDL urls are not
correct...

$WSDL_AUTH = 'https://kasapi.kasserver.com/soap/wsdl/KasAuth.wsdl'
$WSDL_API ='https://kasapi.kasserver.com/soap/wsdl/KasApi.wsdl'

which I had replaced so far.

then you will see the results, even if the login and pass do not match.

I think for many python developers it might be really interesting to
know, WHAT A PHP ARRAY is in python in a SOAP environment.

Hi Chris!
thanks But I am about of going nuts I did everything according
their sample:

http://kasapi.kasserver.com/dokumentation/?open=soap


and wanted to accomplish it in python!

If I pass a dict, I get the error telling me, this nonsense. What
should I do?!

I even tried it in suds instead of soappy, and I am not getting further.

Isn't there an API on Python SOAPpy published somewhere?

Wild guess, but perhaps the 1800 should have been '1800'

php blurs the distinction between numbers and strings, and maybe the 
dict values are supposed to be all strings.

Since I'm not fluent in German, I'm relying on Google Translate to
read of that page. (I didn't find an obvious English version of the
page, but maybe I just didn't look in the right place.)

One thing I've found about the PHP SOAP library is that it seems to
behave quite oddly in some circumstances - my suspicion is the WSDL
file (eg when it's unable to load it). Try monitoring the actual
traffic - SOAP is XML carried over HTTP, so you should be able to just
snoop the TCP/IP socket (easiest way might be to switch in your own
server). See if you can spot a difference between the request that PHP
sends and the one your Python script sends. Fortunately you're not
moving megabytes of data around, here - it should be easy enough to
eyeball the requests and see what's different about them :)

A tip, by the way:

userpass = ['login','password']
m = hashlib.sha1()
m.update(userpass[1])

userpass[1] = m.hexdigest()
loginData = {'user':userpass[0],'pass':userpass[1]}

'KasUser':loginData['user'],
'KasPassword':loginData['pass'],

You keep packaging and repackaging the credentials. I'm assuming you
won't actually have them hard-coded like that (if you do, I would
recommend hard-coding the SHA1 hash, rather than the password itself),
so I'll stick with the userpass list (or tuple, which would work
exactly the same way).

password = hashlib.sha1(userpass[1]).hexdigest()
...
'KasUser':userpass[0],
'KasPassword':password,

Or even inline that completely (which is what I'd probably do).
There's no need to stuff it into a dictionary, only to pull it out
again.

Also: A try/except that just prints out the error message usually
isn't helpful. Save yourself the trouble, at least during initial
testing - just let the exception terminate your script. You'll get all
the same information, plus the full traceback, and it's cost you
exactly zero development time :) Later on, you can add try/except if
you need to do something other than terminate, but often that later
on never even happens.
