I don't know much about SOAP, other then it's on my list of things to play with in the future.
Recently I was asked to "test" a WebService with perl, it was pretty simple.
use SOAP::Lite;
print SOAP::Lite->service('http://webserver/Hello/Service1.asmx?WSDL')->Hello("test");
It should print out "Hello test", but all it prints out is just "Hello".
Putting trace => qw(debug) into the use statement provides some nifty output.
(xml formatting done by me)
SOAP::Transport::HTTP::Client::send_receive: POST http://webserver/Hello/Service1.asmx
Accept: text/xml
Accept: multipart/*
Content-Length: 445
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
SOAPAction: "http://webserver/webservices/Hello"

It appears it is missing the xmlns in the

And according to the "sample" ones, this is how it should be formatted for SOAP requests.
To me it appears it contradicts itself, in the WSDL file, it wants

If anyone has any solutions, or pointers, let me know!
Of, and if it helps, the webservice is running off some .NET implimentation, I can get more details about any of this if needed.
It doesn't look to me at all that it wants parameters. That's just to say that that part comes from one of the params.
However you found the most likely answer for yourself: the xmlns is undefined! You're not at all sending what the other end is expecting, you're sending a completely different set of elements (they have no namespace).

I thought it should set the namespace automaticly. Is there a way I can hard code it, to test it?Re:xmlns

I'm sorry but I have no idea, I haven't used SOAP in ages... it may be a bug, or you may need to set an option. Perhaps that posting to the perl-xml list would yield some answers there.
