rppowell has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am seeking words of wisdom from a guru who is knowledgeable in the realm of coding SOAP Servers and services with Perl and SOAP::Lite...
I get an error on the server side: 
SOAP::Serializer::envelope: Client SOAPAction shall match 'uri#method'
+ if present (got 'urn:pmq#getServerInfo', expected 'http://www.perlmo
+nks.org/PMQueue#getServerInfo'   http://rppowell:88/

Can someone enlighten me in the workings of SOAP as a server?

    Can you post some of your client code?
    Looks like your server is complaining about the value of the SOAPAction header.

    You can 
    use SOAP::Lite +trace => qw(method trace debug);

    on the client and see all the headers and the soap envelope your are sending to the server.

    Also, you can try on the client 
    $soap = new SOAP::Lite
    ->ns($your_ns)
    ->proxy($your_proxy)
    ->on_action(sub{sprintf 'http://www.perlmonks.org/PMQueue#%s', $_[
+1] })
    ;
# the on_action will instruct SOAP::Lite to build the SOAPAction heade
+r the way you want to

      Using this in the server script: 
      use SOAP::Lite +trace => qw(method trace debug);

      [download]
      produces the following: 
      Contact to SOAP server at http://rppowell:88/

      Using this in the server script: 
      use SOAP::LITE + 'trace';

      [download]
      produces the following:
      Read more... SOAP Server messages (1128 Bytes)
      You can see where I got the error message.

      I have access to the WSDL in file form that is used in the generation of the gSOAP program code.
      I am using a binary compiled client (based on gSOAP, I think), to talk to the SOAP server.

      I am trying to duplicate the functionality of a Real gSOAP Server/service with a simple script, so that the binary client still works.

      What have other people used for doing SOAP server stuff?

        On the WSDL you have a node called 'service' 
        <service name=".........">

        [download]
        and inside 
        <port name=".....Soap" binding="tns:.........">
    <soap:address location="http://some_url#getServerInfo"/>
</port>

        Is that location pointing to the right place?
