Hi. Sorry it was vague. Here is the code that we are trying to use to read in the data from the sharepoint site (I've removed the company specific info etc). use HTML::Entities; use LWP::UserAgent; use LWP::Debug; use SOAP::Transport::HTTP; use SOAP::Lite on_action => sub { "$_[0]$_1"; }; import SOAP::Data 'name', 'value'; our $sp_endpoint = '"http address of our sharepoint site.aspx"'; our $sp_domain = '"http address of our sharepoint domain:80"'; our $sp_username = "one of our valid accounts"; our $sp_password = "account password"; if ($debug) { LWP::Debug::level('+'); SOAP::Lite->import(+trace => 'all'); my @ua_args = (keep_alive => 1); my @credentials = ($sp_domain, "", $sp_username, $sp_password); my $schema_ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(@ua_args); $schema_ua->credentials(@credentials); $soap = SOAP::Lite->proxy($sp_endpoint, @ua_args, credentials => \@credentials); my $ie="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)"; my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; $ua->agent($ie); my $url = '"http address of our sharepoint site.aspx"'; my $response = $ua->get ($url); my $content; if ($response->is_success) { print "$response->content\n"; } else { die "DIE!!!:". $response->status_line; } exit; When we run the script the error returned is: proxy: transport protocol not specified For info we have our proxy configs set locally on our pcs and the site we are trying to access is not accessed via proxy server - our credentials are enough to access via the web but not via the script. Can anyone help?
