Problem with SOAP::Lite

I

info

When I call a webservice on a .net machine with the script below, I
only receive a 1 or a true as a result. Instead of that I should
receive an XML file. Anybody...... what am I doing wrong??
In a SSH session everything looks perfect. I even see the XML string
with the response, but not in my browser.

$xml = qq(
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<theCallInfo>
<strCountry>NL</strCountry>
<strLanguage>NL</strLanguage>
<strTourOperator>Amstelborgh</strTourOperator>
<strNrOfassured>2</strNrOfassured>
<strTotalAmount>200</strTotalAmount>
<startDate>25-10-2007</startDate>
<endDate>27-10-2007</endDate>
<Coverage>E</Coverage>
<strCurrency>EUR</strCurrency>
<bSingleTrip>false</bSingleTrip>
</theCallInfo>
);

$xml =~ s/\<\?xml.*\?\>\n?//;
$xml =~ s/\<\!.*\>\n?//;

use SOAP::Lite +trace =>debug;
$client = SOAP::Lite
-> uri('.... bla bla bla')
-> proxy(' bla bla bla')
-> on_action(sub{sprintf '%s%s', @_ })
;

$res=SOAP::Data->type('xml' => $xml);
$result = $client->GetProductsForTourOperator($res);

print "content-type:text/html\n\n";
print qq~
testing.... (result: $result)
~;

No idea what you 'should' receive.. but..

[...]
$res=SOAP::Data->type('xml' => $xml);
$result = $client->GetProductsForTourOperator($res);

Possibly:
my $result = $client->GetProductsForTourOperator($res)->result;
print "content-type:text/html\n\n";

Also, that should be

Content-Type: text/html


Run the script from the command line, and print $result.
If that works, then try it as a CGI.

I think that what you are getting here is a result object, and that object
has overloaded stringification (or boolean which is being bootstrapped into
stringification, or something) so that instead of printing as an object
usually does (something like "CGI=HASH(0x609210)"), it instead prints as
"1", presumably to indicate that the result object is not in an error
state.
