Hi, Monks,

Please don't get confused with two headers. first header you see is typed by me in the perl webservice to see what web service is returning.
Line from Http is what web service seems returning, but c# client getting null value.

Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Client found response con
+tent type of '', but expected 'text/xml'.
The request failed with the error message:
--
Content-Type : text/xml #I have added this line in the perl web servic
+e like print "\nContent-type : text/xml\n\n" to check what exactly it
+ returns.
