Soap is an optionnal feature and is not necessary to get OCS working correctly.

But if you need the webservices : install the extension with cpan.

Hello, thanks for your answer.

Yes, I really need OCS webservices, and it's doesn't work, it seems that nobody be able to install it ...

I have begun a new install, from sratch, and before to install OCS, I have install the Apache2::SOAP.

When I launch the OCS 2.2.1 setup:

============================

Checking for Apache2::SOAP PERL module...
*** Warning: PERL module Apache2::SOAP is not installed !
This module is only required by OCS Inventory NG SOAP Web Service.
Do you wish to continue ([y]/n] ?n

Installation aborted !

cpan[1]> install Apache2::SOAP

Reading '/root/.cpan/Metadata'
  Database was generated on Tue, 02 Aug 2016 12:29:02 GMT
Apache2::SOAP is up to date (0.73).

================================

As you can see the Apache2::SOAP module is already installed, and the OCS setup tell me it's not the case ...

Please help us !

Thanks

Amazing .. It's working. Be careful, your script write:

*** Warning: PERL module Apache2::SOAP is not installed !

But if you continue the installation, webservices are working if it was authorized in apache sites-enable.

Please modify the method to check if the module is installed or not during the installation process.
