I use Perl to test web services created by using apache AXIS, and never encountered problem. Yesterday I upgraded to AXIS2, and got some issue. Whether to use AXIS or AXIS2, is probably not the issue here. I suspect that it has something to do with SOAP::Lite's ability to (fully) support WSDL, or maybe a name space thing? I would like to know what other wise monk think.

The web service is a very simply one that came with AXIS2 installation, you call getVersion(), and it simply returns the version of the AXIS2 you use. Here is the WSDL:

It says server internal error, but I doubt... I think SOAP::Lite has mishandled WSDL/name space under some condition.

Edited by planetscape - added readmore tags
