How can one effectively troubleshoot issues with SOAP and WSDL in PHP projects?

When troubleshooting issues with SOAP and WSDL in PHP projects, one common approach is to check for errors in the SOAP request or response, such as incorrect parameters or missing elements. Additionally, verifying the WSDL file for any discrepancies or inconsistencies can help identify the root cause of the problem. Finally, enabling error reporting and debugging tools in PHP can provide valuable insights into the issue. 

// Example code snippet for troubleshooting SOAP and WSDL in PHP projects

ini_set("soap.wsdl_cache_enabled", "0"); // Disable WSDL cache for easier debugging

$client = new SoapClient("http://example.com/service.wsdl", array('trace' => 1)); // Enable tracing for request/response

try {
    $response = $client->someMethod($params); // Make a SOAP request
    var_dump($response); // Output response for debugging
} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    echo "Error: " . $e->getMessage(); // Output any SOAP faults
}
