[matt]

If you are using NicTool with Apache 2, then you'll be interested in this patch for SOAP::Lite: http://www.nictool.com/docs/server/HTTP.pm.patch" target="_blank">http://www.nictool.com/docs/server/HTTP.pm.patch and this patch for Apache::DBI http://www.nictool.com/docs/server/DBI.pm.patch." target="_blank">http://www.nictool.com/docs/server/DBI.pm.patch.

Maybe you can give a link to the patch file, since copy paste a patch is can lead to incorrect patches.

I read through the posted patch, made all the changes, and even had to add a line (use Apache::compat;) to make it work.

Update 12/6/2004 - I removed Apache::compat; from my patch, and instead added it only to /usr/local/www/NicToolServer/nictoolserver.conf:
use Apache::compat;
use Apache::DBI();
use Apache::SOAP;


Here's a http://mschroll.com/projects/SOAP_HTTP.pm.diff" target="_blank">direct link to the patch.  Enjoy.

I added some additional patch notes to the NicToolServer install page.  They should help.

It appears that SOAP::Lite is back in active development:

http://www.soaplite.com/" target="_blank">http://www.soaplite.com/

Based on a post on the mailing list, they appear to be incorporating Apache2/mod_perl2 support:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soaplite/message/4027" target="_blank">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soaplite/message/4027

and this post seems to imply that support for it is in 0.65 already but needs testing:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soaplite/message/3978" target="_blank">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soaplite/message/3978

So, the question is -- what version of SOAP::Lite are the patches in this forum designed for?

Here is how I did it (on FreeBSD 4.10):

$ cd /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/SOAP/Transport
$ fetch http://nictool.com/docs/server/HTTP.pm.patch" target="_blank">http://nictool.com/docs/server/HTTP.pm.patch
$ cp HTTP.pm HTTP.pm.orig
$ patch -p1 < HTTP.pm.patch

Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
