I've submitted to the soaplite-dev mailing list: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=soaplite-dev a patch to SOAP::Lite to provide (current) mod_perl-2 support, but I haven't heard back about it. You could either apply this patch, or you can grab Apache2::SOAP (and SOAP::Transport::HTTP2) from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/cpan-search/CPAN-Search-Lite/lib/ and install them under your $PERL\site\lib. Use of Apache2::SOAP is the same as Apache::SOAP. If there was interest, I could bundle up Apache2::SOAP and make it available as a separate distribution. -- best regards, randy kobes
