I'm trying to create a soap connection to Magento's web services, however I'm getting an error when I try and create an instance of the soap client class. I can view the wsdl file in firefox without problems and I can watch php make the request for the wsdl in apaches logs but it still fails. Nusoap can connect. 

$proxy = new SoapClient('someaddress?wsdl');

The error is 

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Uncaught SoapFault exception: [HTTP] Error Fetching http headers in /home/sites/xxx/xxx_main/system/application/views/contentpage_templates/gift_service.php:29

Try to set :

default_socket_timeout = 120

in your php.ini file.
