i am using the below code to connect to salesforce using php
require_once ('SforcePartnerClient.php');
require_once ('SforceHeaderOptions.php');
require_once ('SforceMetadataClient.php');
$mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
$mySforceConnection->createConnection("cniRegistration.wsdl");
$loginResult = $mySforceConnection->login("username", "password.token");
$queryOptions = new QueryOptions(200);
try {
$sObject = new stdclass();
$sObject->Name = 'Smith';
$sObject->Phone = '510-555-5555';
$sObject->fieldsToNull = NULL;
echo "**** Creating the following:
";
$createResponse = $mySforceConnection->create($sObject, 'Account');
$ids = array();
foreach ($createResponse as $createResult) {
print_r($createResult);
array_push($ids, $createResult->id);
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->faultstring;
}
But the above code is connect to salesforce database. But is not executing the create commands. it's giving me the below error message
Creating the following: Element {}item invalid at this location
can any one suggest me to overcome the above problem
the value of $mySforceConnection should point to the xml file of the partner.wsdl.xml. E.g $SoapClient = $sfdc->createConnection("soapclient/partner.wsdl.xml");
Try adding the snippet code below to reference the WSDL.
$sfdc = new SforcePartnerClient();
// create a connection using the partner wsdl
$SoapClient = $sfdc->createConnection("soapclient/partner.wsdl.xml");
$loginResult = false;
try {
// log in with username, password and security token if required
$loginResult = $sfdc->login($sfdcUsername, $sfdcPassword.$sfdcToken);
}
catch (Exception $e) {
global $errors;
$errors = $e->faultstring;
echo "Fatal Login Error <b>" . $errors . "</b>";
die;
}
// setup the SOAP client modify the headers
$parsedURL = parse_url($sfdc->getLocation());
define ("_SFDC_SERVER_", substr($parsedURL['host'],0,strpos($parsedURL['host'], '.')));
define ("_SALESFORCE_URL_", "https://test.salesforce.com");
define ("_WS_NAME_", "WebService_WDSL_Name_Here");
define ("_WS_WSDL_", "soapclient/" . _WS_NAME_ . ".wsdl");
define ("_WS_ENDPOINT_", 'https://' . _SFDC_SERVER_ . '.salesforce.com/services/wsdl/class/' . _WS_NAME_);
define ("_WS_NAMESPACE_", 'http://soap.sforce.com/schemas/class/' . _WS_NAME_);
$urlLink = '';
try {
$client = new SoapClient(_WS_WSDL_);
$sforce_header = new SoapHeader(_WS_NAMESPACE_, "SessionHeader", array("sessionId" => $sfdc->getSessionId()));
$client->__setSoapHeaders(array($sforce_header));
} catch ( Exception $e ) {
die( 'Error<br/>' . $e->__toString() );
}
Please check the link on Tech Thought for more details on the error.
MAK, in your sample code SessionHeader and Endpoint setup calls are missing
$mySforceConnection->setEndpoint($location);
$mySforceConnection->setSessionHeader($sessionId);
after setting up those, if you still see an issue, check the namespace urn
$mySforceConnection->getNamespace
It should match targetNamespace value in your wsdl
