I am trying to login via soap from an external server

$api_url_v2 = "http://www.example.com/api/v2_soap/?wsdl=1";

$username = 'username';

$password = 'password';

$cli = new SoapClient($api_url_v2);

$session_id = $cli->login($username, $password);

The error message I get is Fatal error:

Uncaught SoapFault exception: [2] Access denied

However if I look in the api_user table in magento db, then the lognum column increments by 1 when I have the correct username / password combo... so it seems like the system knows the details are correct, but is giving me access denied.

The users role I have ticked all options for and assigned the role to the user

I can't seem to see many examples of this issue anywhere.

Has anyone come accross this issue, or can you provide any tips to solve?

Please try this connection code:

$client = new SoapClient('http://magentohost/api/v2_soap?wsdl=1');

$session = $client->login('apiUser', 'apiKey');

I took it from the API Guidlines here:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/api/soap/introduction.html#Introduction-SOAPAPIVersionv2

I have also used this method on my stores for product retrieval and editting, however, are you on version 1.6.2? I know there is a role setting bug that doesnt allow you to set all roles.

Suggestions:
Provide version number, edition & url if possible.

$client = new SoapClient('http://www.comain.co.uk/api/v2_soap?wsdl=1');

$session = $client->login('username', 'apikey');



$result = $client->catalogInventoryStockItemList($session, array('27847')); // Products ID

print_r($result);

The above code has just been tested on my server which seems to be succesfull with this result:

Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [product_id] => 27847 [sku] => VKC450O [qty] => 0.0000 [is_in_stock] => 1 ) )

Let me know how you get on.

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0");

$client = new SoapClient(

    'http://127.0.0.1/magento/api/v2_soap/?wsdl'

);



$session = $client->login('imran', '654321imran');



$result = $client->catalogProductList($session,'sku');



print_r($result->product_id);



$client->endSession($session);

One idea: load the WSDL-config with cUrl like this example and try it again:

// GET SOAP-WSDL AS TEMP-FILE

// ==========================



    $objCURL = curl_init([API-URL]); // Set API-URL

    curl_setopt($objCURL,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

    $strWSDLFile = curl_exec($objCURL);

    curl_close($objCURL);



    file_put_contents('wsdl_temp.xml',$strWSDLFile);



// INIT SOAP-SESSION

// =================



    try {

        $soap = new SoapClient('wsdl_temp.xml');

        $soapSession = $soap->login([API-User], [API-Key]);

    } catch(Exception $e) {

        var_dump($e);

    }

This solves all MY problems with the API. :-)

The solution is to

1. create a new SOAP/XML-RPX Roles, say "Test"

2. in Role Resources just select "All" for Resource Access (just for testing)

3. Edit the user and assign the Role to "Test"

In fact, if I use Soap in http://localhost/.... it works, the connection is successful, but if I use same methods with in external IP and a port (like http://82.82.10.10:8080/...) returns this error:

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Forbidden in C:Program Files (x86)Amppswwwsoapclass_01.php on line 128

SoapFault: Forbidden in C:Program Files (x86)Amppswwwsoapclass_01.php on line 128

The firewall is disabled, the ports are open. I do not know what to look for.
