[solved] Problem with SoapClient and LiteSpeed

[Sindre]

Hello,

I am struggling with a strange problem. I have a script which makes a simple Soap request to my Magento API:

PHP Code:

try {
   $proxy= new SoapClient($host.'/index.php/api/soap/?wsdl',array('exceptions' => 1,'trace' => 1,"connection_timeout" => 120));
   $sessionId= $proxy->login($apiuser, $apikey);
   echo  "Magento Api accessed Successfully.";
   echo "<br>Session Id is:". $sessionId;
} catch (Exception $e) {
   echo "==> Error: ".$e->getMessage();
} 


When I run this through a browser I get

SOAP-ERROR: Parsing WSDL: "Couldn't load from 'http://....../index.php/api/soap/index/wsdl/1/' : failed to load external entity "http://..../index.php/api/soap/index/wsdl/1/"

However, when I run it from the command line it works fine:

/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 path_to_script
Magento Api accessed Successfully.<br>Session Id is: xxxx

It is the same lsphp5 binary that is configured in LiteSpeed LSAPI external app.

Any ideas? I am sort of out of ideas at the moment.
