azure webapp to webjob SOAP connection

Need to make a SOAP connection from .php code running as a webapp to a c++ console mode application that is looking for a SOAP connection on a given port while running as a webjob fired off from a batch file.

in php the call looks like this and does not work: $this->m_webservice_location="http://localhost:8080";

The error that comes back is: Error from AddressPro SOAP: Could not connect to host

Any ideas what to try or how to gather the address that will hit the webjob?

The Azure WebJob cannot listen on tcp ports. You can use web sockets to communicate between web app and webjob, for example with signal-r: http://www.jerriepelser.com/blog/communicate-from-azure-webjob-with-signalr

You can also communicate using the file-system by writing to a file under d:\home\... and listening to changes on that file.
