Question

I am trying to move a file which calls a wsdl service with the nusoap class. On the new server i get the following error:

wsdl error: HTTP ERROR: Couldn't open socket connection to server http://ip...:xxxx/service.asmx?wsdl, Error (13): Permission denied 

Is this an incorrect server setting? If so which setting would be the most common with this issue?
Could it be some kind of firewall? Should i ask my hosting company to enable something??

Any tips, suggestions??

fyi with $nusoapclient->debug_str i get

soap_transport_http: connect connection_timeout 0, response_timeout 30, scheme http, host xxx.xxx.xxx, port xxxx

soap_transport_http: calling fsockopen with host xxx.xxx.xxxx connection_timeout 0
soap_transport_http: Couldn’t open socket connection to server

Ok for those running into the same issue, check if your php/apache config is permissive vs enforced. This might solve your problem
