Calling a .NET webservice from PERL

[TheWalWorker]

I'm using the XML::Client::DotNet module.

It works great! Except: I can't seem to pass any parameters to the webservice. I used the Soap Debugging info that's built in.

Here is the header I'm passing:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
    soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
    xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetTestToken xmlns="http://localhost">
      <userId xsi:type="xsd:string">0123</userId>
    </GetTestToken>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Here's the header they're expecting:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetTestToken xmlns="http://parata.webservice/">
      <userId>string</userId>
    </GetTestToken>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Am I missing something?

I went through today and modified the .PM file for SOAP::Lite. I made it so it would not display the extra namespaces that my webservice was not looking for.

The webservice description:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
     xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
     xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetTestToken xmlns="http://localhost">
      <userId>string</userId>
    </GetTestToken>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

My new webservice description

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
    xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetTestToken xmlns="http://localhost">
      <userId xsi:type="xsd:string">0123</userId>
    </GetTestToken>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

With the exception of the attribute in "userId" these two services are identical. I'm not worried about the attribute either, because as stated
here . The extra attribute does not matter anyways!

Am I doing something wrong? The service works, just not parameter passing! So is it my code? or what I'm passing?

Personally, I have no experience with what you are working on, and judging by the lack of replies from Miller and Jeff, the two other forum regulars here, I would have to assume they don't either. My best advise is to post your question on www.perlmonks.com where there are more active members with a wider range of experience and knowledge.
