468009 - SOAP::Lite versions greater than 0.68 and less than 0.710.06 return the wrong XML for methods

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: WebService, defect)

Description

[Max Kanat-Alexander]

I knew this bug existed, but I didn't know what versions were affected until just now. If you are using a bad version of SOAP::Lite (greater than 0.68 but before 0.710.06), then you get things like <get_bugsResponse> instead of <methodResponse> in the XML returned from method calls. Some SOAP clients might be OK with this, but I suspect that most (if not all) will actually break in this case, so we need to blacklist those SOAP::Lite versions.

Looks good, but I have no way to check this. r=LpSolit

Just so people get the idea, here's what a bad version of SOAP::Lite returns.

And here's the same call, but with a good SOAP::Lite version.
