Array to string conversion error when making soap request

Question

I'm doing a simple request like this

        $wsdl = "http://.../wsdl/FileArchive";
        $client = new SoapClient($wsdl);


        $parameters= array(
                        "FileName" => "file.jpg"
                       );

        $values = $client->GetFileInfo($parameters);

I'm getting "Array to string conversion" where the GetFileInfo method is being called.

The method is defined in wsdl like this :

<message name="GetFileInfo0Request">
<part name="FileName" type="xs:string"/>
</message>

I've searched for it, and found out it could occur when there is some complex type, but here is just a string. What could be the problem?

Rather than this $values = $client->GetFileInfo($parameters);

Try this instead: $values = $client->__soapCall('GetFileInfo', $parameters);

Thank you for response, now it doesn't show that error, but "Could not connect to host"...but it should be available.

Does the host require some sort of authentication scheme, like a username and password?

I had the same problem. Does anyone know the reason? Why does it work with __soapCall?

I changed this code: $response = call_user_func_array( array( $this->client, $action ), array( $request ) ); Into this code: $response = $this->client->__soapCall( $action, array( $request ) ); But it did not help, I still get the Notice. $request contains an object!

You must send a simple array.

 $parameters= array("file.jpg");
