Re: SOAP::Transport::TCP connection problems

So, having taken the suggestions of both tye and derby, I found the following:

First, I stepped through the server using the Perl debugger. To my bemusement, the code worked flawlessly, and I got the results I expected.

Following that, I ran the code again without the debugger, and got the results reported previously.

Then I added the use SOAP::Lite +trace => qw( all ); lines to the code above, and received the following complaint from the server:

SOAP::Serializer::envelope: Client Application failed during request deserialization:
no element found at line 1, column 0, byte -1 at /usr/lib/perl5/XML/Parser.pm line 185

Out of curiousity, I ran it through the debugger again with the new changes, and it works without err. At this point, I'm inclined to abandon my cause in favor of using SOAP::Transport::HTTP instead of pursuing this problem further.

Thanks, all

Hi, jwest! Your code works for me (win98, Perl5.6.1), but there is a small (already fixed) problem in handling EWOULDBLOCK for non-blocking IO that may produce the results you're having. I'm not sure about the reason though, because I can't reproduce this error. Would you try with older version of SOAP::Lite (it has blocking IO)? Thanks. Best wishes, Paul.	[reply]

Heya, Paul- Thanks for another verification of my sanity. ;) I pulled SOAP::Lite version 0.50 down from the CPAN and re-ran the tests, and it worked without err. Looks like you may very well be on the right track. Let me know if there's any other info that I can provide to you that will let you confirm your suspicions.
