Any SOAP or SOAP::Lite users out there? I'm very new to SOAP and I was working on the exercises at http://guide.soaplite.com/ to set up something simple to bang on before I start working on my production code. I tried to set up the author's demo server: 
  #!perl -w

  use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;

  SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI   
    -> dispatch_to('Demo')     
    -> handle;

  package Demo;

  sub hi {                     
    return "hello, world";     
  }

  sub bye {                    
    return "goodbye, cruel world";
  }

But when I try to run the script, I keep getting the error: Status: 411 Length Required. ...and the script terminates. I have an idea what the error itself means in a client-server context, but it appears that the server is coming up with this own its own. Any help would be much appriciated.
