Hi, I have a weird problem, please help. I have an ASP.NET webservice that I am trying to call from a perl script via soap::lite. I have installed the latest version of soap::lite. The stub from stubmaker sends this SOAP Message: SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Client::send_receive: POST http://www.drobnik.net/services/tv.asmx HTTP/1.1 Accept: text/xml Accept: multipart/* Accept: application/soap Content-Length: 748 Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 SOAPAction: "http://www.drobnik.net/services/GetSeriesName" <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:tm="http:// microsoft.com/wsdl/mime/textMatching/" xmlns:soap12="http:// schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap12/" xmlns:mime="http:// schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/mime/" soap:encodingStyle="http:// schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:soap="http:// schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/ XMLSchema" xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:http="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/http/" xmlns:tns="http:// www.drobnik.net/services/"><soap:Body><tns:GetSeriesName><name xsi:type="s:string">Colbert</name></tns:GetSeriesName></soap:Body></ soap:Envelope> If I manually code the soap request as in the example on the Microsoft page, the request looks like this. The only difference I could see is that the function name does not have the name space directly attached but in an extra name space tns. SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Client::send_receive: POST http://www.drobnik.net/services/tv.asmx HTTP/1.1 Accept: text/xml Accept: multipart/* Accept: application/soap Content-Length: 481 Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 SOAPAction: http://www.drobnik.net/services/GetSeriesName <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http:// www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:soapenc="http:// schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/ XMLSchema" soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ encoding/" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ envelope/"><soap:Body><GetSeriesName xmlns="http://www.drobnik.net/ services/"><name xsi:type="xsd:string">Colbert</name></GetSeriesName></ soap:Body></soap:Envelope> The second query works and passes the parameter correctly. The first request however, even though I don't see a difference in the name spaces causes the parameter to be lost. What is the difference for the asp.net listener between those requests? cheers Oliver Drobnik
