A note, response from xmlrpc_decode is not always an array. Whenever the XMLRPC server returns a string, xmlrpc_is_fault will complain about not being an array.

Best way to detect errors is

<?php


$response
= xmlrpc_decode($file);

if (
is_array($response) && xmlrpc_is_fault($response)) {
throw new
Exception($response['faultString'], $response['faultCode']);
}

?>
