This should be really simple but it's not working for me. From my DOS window I can run.... 
## soapclient.pl ##
use SOAP::Lite;
print SOAP::Lite
    -> uri('http://www.soaplite.com/Demo')
    -> proxy('http://services.soaplite.com/hibye.cgi')
    -> hi()
    -> result;
exit;

... and I get the expected result. However, if I put the 'same' SOAP server script on my server. 
## soapserver.cgi ##
#!/usr/bin/perl
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";
}
1;
exit;

and run.... 
## soapclient.pl ##
use SOAP::Lite;
print SOAP::Lite
    -> uri('http://www.anything.com/Demo')
    -> proxy('http://dev.domain.com/cgi-bin/soapserver.cgi')
    -> hi()
    -> result;
exit;

I get a '500 Internal ServerError at soapclient.pl line 2'
I do not have access to the logs (don't ask), so I added 
use CGI::Carp(qw/warningsToBrowser fatalsToBrowser/);

[download]
to my .cgi script and got this error..
Unexpected Content-Type 'text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' returned.

The problem is possibly with the uri. I just don't understand how it's constructed.
My reading tells me it can be almost anything followed by a package name where the package path is relative to the proxy script.
