Greetings oh wise ones... I am trying to create and call a web service with perl using SOAP but am not having any luck getting any of the examples to work. I can run the client.pl but it prints nothing. Sample of the code is below and any help would be greatly appreciated. I am running this on an IIS 5 Windowz server using perl version 5.10.0 
####Client.pl####
#!perl -w  
use SOAP::Lite;
  print SOAP::Lite                                             
    -> uri('http://localhost/Echo')                                   
+          
    -> proxy('http://localhost/scripts/Server.cgi')
    -> hi()                                                    
    -> result;

####Server.cgi####
 #!perl -w

  use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;

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

  package Echo;

  sub hi {                     
    return "hello, world";     
  }

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