So I have a custom module setup, heres the subroutine within it

sub new
{
    my ($self, $settings) = (@_);

    die('Server not set for connection settings')     if(!$settings->{
+'server'});
    die('Username not set for connection settings') if(!$settings->{'u
+sername'});
    die('Password not set for connection settings') if(!$settings->{'p
+assword'});
    
    $settings->{'protocol'}     = ($settings->{'protocol'}) ? $setting
+s->{'protocol'} : "https";
    $settings->{'port'}        = ($settings->{'port'}) ? $settings->{'
+port'} : "443";
    
    my $proxy_uri = sprintf("https://%s:%s@%s:443/iControl/iControlPor
+tal.cgi", $settings->{'username'},$settings->{'password'},$settings->
+{'server'});
    
    $self->debug("Connection Settings:\n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
+>>>>>>>>>>\n". Dumper($settings)."<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
+<<<<<");
    $self->debug("Connection URI: $proxy_uri");
    
    $soap = SOAP::Lite->proxy($proxy_uri);

    if($soap->fault) {
        print "\nSoap Fault: ".$soap->faultcode." ".$soap->faultstring
+." ".$soap->faultdetail."\n\n";
      }

    return $soap;
}

Pretty basic right? Just makes a soap authentication request. Heres the weird part. Notice I didnt make it die() if $soap->fault;, I just let it try to continue. Well, it throws an error, but it actually returns the expected data! Here it is:

Soap Fault: 1 1 1

Members in first pool: 
$VAR1 = bless( {
                 'address' => '1.2.3.4',
                 'port' => '80'
               }, 'Common::IPPortDefinition' );

So the code, string and detail are all just "1".... not much detail right? Now when I actually do a Data::Dumper on the faultcode, it shows a ton of data, and I found this in it.

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
    xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
<faultcode
    xsi:type="xsd:string">SOAP-ENV:Client</faultcode>
<faultstring
    xsi:type="xsd:string">Unknown method &quot;{Unspecified}:faultcode
+&quot;</faultstring>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

In reply to SOAP::Lite fault seems faulty by jhyland87
