Well I know there was a large problem with Axis Soap and/or Apache and
MS Soap clients
It was fixed in later versions of Axis, RPC Document Lit coding?
See listed in here somewhere
http://www.searchwebservices.com
http://searchwebservices.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid26_gci913069,00.html
or you could try the NuSoap code and PHP IDE
from
http://www.NuSphere.com
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nusoap-general
or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsoaptoolkit/

You may have to use something like GLUE to generate your WSDL file
