Script fails “SOAP request error – possibly a protocol issue”

After upgrading a server to Ubuntu 12.04 (from 10.04) and the vSphere SDK for Perl to the latest version one of my scripts started running into a problem giving me a SOAP request error. After digging into the update logs I found that this problem happened due Net-HTTP being upgraded to 6.05 (from 6.03), after a downgrade to 6.03 the problem was resolved. You can downgrade by running the following command.
