I might be not the only one posting this issue on Stackoverflow but unfortunately none of them solved my issue.
I've developed an opencast mobile app connected to server through SOAP API, when testing the API via Postman it returns a correct result however when running the app the API returns HTML instead of XML. It's not executing the php file and triggering the functions.
-(void)loginRequest{
@try {
NSMutableDictionary *params = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
NSString *password = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", [self md5:SOAP_PASSWORD]];
[params setObject:SOAP_USER_NAME forKey:@"apiKey"];
[params setObject:password forKey:@"apiPassword"];
NSError *error = nil;
NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:params options:NSJSONWritingPrettyPrinted error:&error];
NSString *jsonString;
if(!jsonData){
// NSLog(@"Got an error: %@", error);
}
else
jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSString *parameters = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"<attributes xsi:type=\"xsd:string\">%@</attributes>", jsonString];
NSString *envelope = [self createEnvelope:@"apiLogin" forNamespace:@"urn:Opencart" forParameters:parameters];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString: URL]];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
NSMutableDictionary *defaultHeaders = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[defaultHeaders setValue:@"gzip" forKey:@"Accept-Encoding"];
[defaultHeaders setValue:@"en, en-us;q=0.8" forKey:@"Accept-Language"];
[defaultHeaders setValue:@"text/xml; charset=utf-8" forKey:@"Content-Type"];
[defaultHeaders setValue:@"urn:Opencart_Api_Model_Server_HandlerAction" forKey:@"SOAPAction"];
[defaultHeaders setValue:@"com.lognllc.Magento-iOS-Example/1.0.0 (unknown, iPhone OS 8.1, iPhone Simulator, Scale/2.000000)" forKey:@"User-Agent"];
[request setAllHTTPHeaderFields:defaultHeaders];
[request setHTTPBody:[envelope dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSURLConnection *connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self];
if(connection){
webData = [NSMutableData data];
}
else{
NSLog(@"The Connection is null error: %@", error);
}
}
@catch (NSException *e) {
NSLog(@"catching %@ reason 1 %@", [e name], [e reason]);
}
}
The returned result I'm getting from the client server as following:

The HTML file is very long so I pasted part of it. However at the end of the log I get this error message:
An Error was occured { NSXMLParserErrorColumn = 14; NSXMLParserErrorLineNumber = 77; NSXMLParserErrorMessage = "AttValue: \" or ' expected\n"; }
the file name is appserver.php it should execute the file and returns XML result based on the API called.
Example of the correct result should be as tested on a demo server:
{"banners":[{"title":"Images","link":"/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=47","image":"http://domain.comm/image/data/banners/3.png"},{"title":"Testing","link":"Image","image":"http://domain.comm/image/data/banners/4.png"},{"title":"Something","link":"/index.php?route=product/product&path=57&product_id=49","image":"http://domain.comm/image/data/banners/6.png"},{"title":"asdgasdg","link":"/index.php?route=product/product&path=57&product_id=49","image":"http://domain.comm/image/data/banners/5.png"},{"title":"Image","link":"/index.php?route=product/product&path=57&product_id=49","image":"http://domain.comm/image/data/banners/1.png"}],"modules":{"featured":[{"product_id":"47","thumb":"http://domain.com/image/cache/data/hp_1-187.5x187.5.jpg","name":"HP
Again I'm pasting part of the file rather the whole file as a summary so the question won't be much long.
I've checked the server configuration and found that SOAP, XMLWriter and XMLReader are installed on server but still the error persist. It's really a headache trying to resolve this issue for 2 weeks with no result. I appreciate your help if someone has already experienced that and can advise.
