Below is the code that I am using in a .PL file, I feel like the ENV that I create may be the issue here, but if I take that out I get a certificate error. I was wondering is there any fix around the 411 Length required error. I have found people talking about POST methods but, I am not using a POST, any help is appreciated. I got thrown into perl today, and I am trying my best just to get a connection to a web service.
#!perl -w
use SOAP::Lite;
$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME}=0;
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper(SOAP::Lite
-> proxy('mywebsite')
-> GetTicket()
-> result);
This is the new and working Code, I got an Authfail error though which is the next problem I will be working on.
Darch was correct, here is my fully functional working Code for any future users to look at.
use strict;
use warnings;
# use ../ as lib location
use File::Basename;
use FindBin qw($RealBin);
use lib dirname($RealBin);
use SOAP::Lite;
use Data::Dumper;
$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME}=0;
my $URL = 'myURL';
my $NameSpace = 'myNameSpace';
# this is operation to execute, it could be TicketCreate, TicketUpdate, TicketGet, TicketSearch
# or SessionCreate. and they must to be defined in the web service.
my $Operation = 'GetTicket';
# this variable is used to store all the parameters to be included on a request in XML format, each
# operation has a determined set of mandatory and non mandatory parameters to work correctly, please
# check OTRS Admin Manual in order to get the complete list.
my $XMLData = '
<UserLogin>myUser</UserLogin>
<Password>myPassword</Password>
<TicketID>1</TicketID>
';
# ---
# create a SOAP::Lite data structure from the provided XML data structure.
my $SOAPData = SOAP::Data
->type( 'xml' => $XMLData );
my $SOAPObject = SOAP::Lite
->uri($NameSpace)
->proxy($URL)
->$Operation($SOAPData);
# check for a fault in the soap code.
if ( $SOAPObject->fault ) {
print $SOAPObject->faultcode, " ", $SOAPObject->faultstring, "\n";
}
# otherwise print the results.
else {
# get the XML response part from the SOAP message.
my $XMLResponse = $SOAPObject->context()->transport()->proxy()->http_response()->content();
# deserialize response (convert it into a perl structure).
my $Deserialized = eval {
SOAP::Deserializer->deserialize($XMLResponse);
};
# remove all the headers and other not needed parts of the SOAP message.
my $Body = $Deserialized->body();
# just output relevant data and no the operation name key (like TicketCreateResponse).
for my $ResponseKey ( keys %{$Body} ) {
print Dumper( $Body->{$ResponseKey} );
}
}
