I tried to use the guide on http://cookbook.soaplite.com/#changing%20method%20name%20in%20response , but it doesn't seem to work, I guess it's not applicable on what I'm doing.

The code you posted doesn't show any code from the guide, or a client.

It works for me, goes from

<product_info_requestResponse xmlns="http://127.0.0.1/MyModule" xsi:ni
+l="true"/>

<product_info_request xmlns="http://127.0.0.1/MyModule">

<quote>The code you posted doesn't show any code from the guide, or a client. </quote> - I intentionally left out the guide code since I didn't get it to work, to "start from scratch" so to speak. Regarding the client, I left it out since I didn't think it was needed - I know how the data should look like. But I guess it should've been included for the possibility to recreate the problem.

I tried to add


BEGIN {
    package MySerializer;
    @MySerializer::ISA = 'SOAP::Serializer';
    sub envelope {
        $_[2] =~ s/Response$// if $_[1] =~ /^(?:method|response)$/;
        shift->SUPER::envelope(@_);
    }

in the end of MyModule, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Maybe because I'm not using the Daemon approach, but rather the "cgi-server" approach?

My client code:


#!/usr/bin/perl

use SOAP::Lite +trace => 'debug';
use Data::Dumper;

$HOST   = "http://path/to/server.pl";
$NS     = "urn:MyModule";
$PHRASE =  shift; # read from the command line
my $soap = SOAP::Lite
->readable(1)
->uri($NS)
->proxy($HOST);
my $som = $soap->product_info_request(
                                            SOAP::Data->name("version"

                                            SOAP::Data->name("prod_no"

                                    );

Um, I alrady went through the trouble of posting a complete, runnable, self contained, working example
