SOAP::Lite dispatching problems

[Richard Calosso <ri...@broadlinemediacorp.com>]

I am trying to get my Apache server to dispatch SOAP requests per some
examples on the SOAP::Lite docs with not much success.  I am running on RH9
with Apache 2.0.49, mod_perl 1.99_13 built on perl v5.8.3 all built from
source locally.
I added the following location directive to httpd.conf

<Location /Broadline/SOAP>
 SetHandler perl-script
 PerlHandler Apache::SOAP
 PerlSetVar dispatch_to "DLManager"
</Location>

If have the following as DLManager.pm in the perl INC path:
package DLManager;

sub sayHello {
    shift;
    return "Hello" . shift;
}

1;

and am using the following simple client to execute it.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

use strict;

use SOAP::Lite;

my $Name = shift;
print "\nCalling Service\n";
print SOAP::Lite
 ->uri('http://localhost/DLManager')
 ->proxy('http://localhost/Broadline/SOAP')
 ->sayHello($Name)
 ->result;

When I execute the client program I get
405 Method not allowed at /hello.pl line 11
error and no error messages in the error or access log files.
Can someone shed some light on this for me?  I read all the docs I could
find regarding this on Google and SOAPLite.org and still have not been able
to resolve the problem.

Patches were supplied for mp2 in a couple of messages in the
soap-lite mailing list archives.

Has someone prepared patches for mp2 already?  Or are you just saying "it is
something which needs to be done"?

As well as that for debugging, also check the soaplite
mailing list archives, as Geoff suggests - I believe that
some patches to SOAP::Lite (specifically, in
SOAP::Transport::HTTP) are needed to work with mod_perl 2.

this really isn't a SOAP::Lite support forum, so you might want to try the
soaplite list (still on yahoo?) instead.

in any case, it's been a while since I played with SOAP::Lite, but here is
how I used to debug things, which I'm pretty sure I found in the docs:

use SOAP::Lite
  +autodispatch =>
  uri => 'http://localhost/Foo/SOAP',
  proxy => 'http://localhost/Foo',
    on_fault => sub {
      my($soap, $res) = @_;
      die ref $res ? $res->faultstring :
                     $res, " ", $soap->transport->status, "\n";
    },
    on_debug => sub{print@_};

HTH
