Fellow Monks lend me your ears!

I was browsing the CPAN modules available and came across one that I have missed until now. VoiceXML::Server

I did a quick read of the docs and decided to try the example.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use diagnostics;
use strict;

require VoiceXML::Server;
my $server = VoiceXML::Server->new();
# it says not use avoidfirewall if you can help it, so I removed that 
+part

$server->Audio("Pick a number between 1 and 99.");

my $num = int(rand(99)) + 1;

while (1) {
     my $guess = $server->Listen(grammar => "NATURAL_NUMBER_THRU_99");
     if ($guess < $num) {
         $server->Audio("No, $guess is too low.  Try again.");
     } elsif ($guess > $num) {
         $server->Audio("No, $guess is too high.  Try again.");
     } else {
         $server->Audio("That's right, my number was $num.  OK, " .
                        "let's play again.  I'm thinking of a " .
                        "different number.");
         $num = int(rand(99)) + 1;
     }
}

I have tried it with two different webservers with two different results. On this win98 machine running the most recent ActiveState Perl and using the Xitami webserver, it gives a 502 Service temporarily overloaded. On my hosted site, I get "Premature end of script headers".

The debug option does not seem to do anything on either.

Has anyone had any luck with this thing?
