What’s the error

When Ordoro makes an API call to Magento, sometimes you may see the following error in the Activity menu.

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=”http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/”><SOAP-ENV:Body><SOAP-ENV:Fault><faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Server</faultcode><faultstring>Procedure ‘login’ not present</faultstring>


How to fix it

You can typically resolve this error by making the following adjustments on your Magento server.

  1. Login into your Magento admin panel.
  2. Go to System -> Configuration -> Magento Core API ->  WS-I Compliance.
  3. Change the setting to No.

If you’re using Zoey via Magento, you’ll have slightly different directions.

  1. Log into your Zoey admin panel.
  2. Go to Advanced -> API Configurations
  3. Under Standard API, select More Standard API Options -> Manage API Settings
  4. Set WS-I Compliance to No. and save the configuration.

Doing these steps should solve the “Procedure ‘login’ not present” error and let Ordoro successfully connect to your Magento site.


What is WS-I Compliance?

If you’re curious what WS-I Compliance is, see Magento’s help article about this setting or below.

Magento provides you with the ability to use two modes for SOAP API V2. These are with WS-I compliance mode enabled and WS-I compliance mode disabled. The first one was introduced to make the system flexible, namely, to increase compatibility with .NET and Java programming languages.

The WS-I compliant mode uses the same WSDL endpoint as SOAP API V2 does. The key difference is that XML namespaces are used in WS-I compliance mode.
