Top level XML-RPC element is missing - El Forum - 10-07-2008

[eluser]Tobz[/eluser]
Hi ya,
Im playing around with xml-rpc for the first time and I'm getting this error:
Top level XML-RPC element is missing

I now pretty much just copy/pasted the example code from the user guide, all I've changed is the server's controller and method names.

server:
Code:
class Update extends Controller {

  function Update() {
    parent::Controller();
  }


  function index() {
    $this->load->library('xmlrpc');
    $this->load->library('xmlrpcs');

    $config['functions']['check'] = array ('function'=>'Update.check');

    $this->xmlrpcs->initialize($config);
    $this->xmlrpcs->serve();
  }


  function check($request) {
    
    $parameters = $request->output_parameters();

    $response = array (
    array (
    'you_said'=>$parameters['0'],
    'i_respond'=>'Not bad at all.'),
    'struct');

    return $this->xmlrpc->send_response($response);
  }


}


and the client function:

Code:
function checkVersion() {
    $this->load->library('xmlrpc');
    
    $server_url = site_url('update');
    $request = array('How is it going?');
        
    $this->xmlrpc->server($server_url, 80);
    $this->xmlrpc->method('check');
    $this->xmlrpc->timeout(6);
    $this->xmlrpc->request($request);    
        
    if (!$this->xmlrpc->send_request()) {
       $output = $this->xmlrpc->display_error();
    }
    else {
      $output = '<pre>';
      $output .= print_r($this->xmlrpc->display_response(), true);
      $output .= '</pre>';
    }
    return $output;
  }

anyone see whats wrong here?

Thanks
