WinService hosted WCF + PHP client, and disabled service

I have implemented a WCF service hosted on Windows Service. I want to consume it with PHP. Everything works OK for now, but problem is when I stop my win. service.

Consuming it with .NET application I get EndpointNotFoundException. But using PHP I get HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error

This is my PHP code:

<?php
header('Content-Type: text/plain');
try
{ 
    $client = new 
        SoapClient( 
            "http://localhost:8000/TestService/service?wsdl" 
        );      

    $webService = $client->CheckStatus();       
    $wsResult = $webService->CheckStatusResult;
    print  $wsResult;
} 
catch (Exception $e) 
{
    print  "Caught exception: " .  $e->getMessage(). "\n";
} ?>

My question is: how to check if endpoint is ac开发者_如何学Pythoncessible, because error I described occurs after timeout. I want to quickly check this, and not get internal server error

If the service is not accessable, the service will be unable to connect. That time that it takes to give up is (I believe) based on the setting default_socket_timeout in php.ini. Try setting that to something lower and you should get a failure sooner than the timeout as it is now.

My apologies if you are trying to say that the exception is not getting properly caught.
