Hi, I get an error when running a simple SOAP client (the GlobalWeather.pl example): HTTP::Message content not bytes at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/SOAP/Transport/HTTP.pm line 187 I am using PERL version 5.8.8 SOAP::WSDL version 2.00.03 LWP version 5.810 I think the error comes from the funny way of calculating the content length and/or interference with LWP. But I cannot change anything in the modules since they are installed by my provider. Anyone has a fix for this problem without changing the module? Bibi.
