in thread Problem with SOAP::Lite, getting the output from the SOAP server as a complete program and not the return value

Hello,

I do have the exact same problem, and unfortunatly it is not a warning but an error (from apache2 error log):

[Wed Jan 13 15:58:36 2010] [error] [client 172.31.1.19] Use of uninitialized value $ENV{"HTTP_TRANSFER_ENCODING"} in pattern match (m//) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0/SOAP/Transport/HTTP.pm line 530.

Cgi scripts are running well otherwise.
Any possible solution or hint?

    No sir, it is a warning. splain

        (m//) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0/SOAP/Transport/HTTP.pm l
+ine 530 (#1)
    (W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were alread

    To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables.

    To help you figure out what was undefined, perl will try to tell y
+ou the
    name of the variable (if any) that was undefined. In some cases it
+ cannot
    do this, so it also tells you what operation you used the undefine
+d value
    in.  Note, however, that perl optimizes your program and the opera
+tion
    displayed in the warning may not necessarily appear literally in y
+our
    program.  For example, "that $foo" is usually optimized into "that
+ "
    . $foo, and the warning will refer to the concatenation (.) operat
+or,
    even though there is no . in your program.

    The part of that says "error" is just boilerplate generated by apache mod_log.

      Hello and thank you for your answer!

      If it is simply a warning, it shouldn't affect the program behavior and the code should execute itself correctly, isn't it?

      When I call the client perl program, the server add the previous error/warning line in the error log and it seems that nothing is returned to the client (it should return "hello, world".)

      I don't know what to do now to try to solve this problem :/
