I am trying to learn how to use the pysimplesoap client to consume a 
service outside of Web2Py. 

Example in book works great, and I have not some useful threads in the 
community about authentication which is phase 2, but I am just trying to 
start simple. Unfortunately, my proof of concept to use the soap client to 
readily available services on the WWW is bombing. I am sure it is something 
simple... Any help is appreciated.  

def test_4():
  from gluon.contrib.pysimplesoap.client import SoapClient, SoapFault
  client = SoapClient 
(wsdl="http://www.webservicex.net/geoipservice.asmx?wsdl";, 
location="http://www.webservicex.net/";, cacert=None, trace=False)
  # call SOAP method
  response = client.GetGeoIP(IPAddress='24.194.5.187')
  try:
    result = response['GetGeoIPResult']
  except SoapFault:
    result = None
  return dict(xml_request=client.xml_request,
            xml_response=client.xml_response,
            result=result)

Here is my Traceback
