Connect to Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2013 Webservices through PHP - 14/01/2019 16:26 EST

SUMMARY -------------------------------------------------- I have a PHP application (Linux) that will integrate with Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2013 through webservices (IIS). PHP does not support NTLM authentication natively so that some hacking is required to emulate curl (that supports NTLM) on SOAP accesses. To test the connectivity between systems I followed these tutorials: [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] NOTES -------------------------------------------------- At this point I still can't successfully connect to Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2013 Webservices from PHP. i) OK: If I execute the command below in the command line I can successfully get the xml wget --user "<domain\username>" --password "<password>" <webservice_url> ii) FAIL: If I run the PHP script using CURL as mentioned in the tutorials I always get PHP errors like Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [WSDL] SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: Couldn't load from '<webservice_url>' : failed to load external entity "<webservice_url>" in /var/www/html/webservices/MSNav/temp/[login to view URL] Stack trace: #0... TASK DESCRIPTION -------------------------------------------------- The proposed work intends to provide/fix a connectivity solution between the PHP script and Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2013 through webservices, that is, access to Dynamics Nav webserver and fetch the webservice contents through php. The problem may be on PHP settings and/or networking issues. The solution should also allow writing data on Nav. Please note that the logic for processing the webservices is out of the scope of this work. The job should be executed interactively using a screen sharing application since a connection to the customer environment need to be established.
