Well, a 500 means that the problem is occuring server side. If you
can't get any debug unformation from your server, perhaps you can
recreate the problem another way. Below is a bit of Python that I use
to send hard-coded SOAP messages to my server to see what I get back:

import httplib

SOAP_MESSAGE_TEMPLATE = '''<soap:Envelope
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
    <soap:Body>
        <%(SOAP_ACTION)s xmlns="http://%(HOST)s:%(PORT)s%(SERVICE)s">
            %(SOAP_ARGS)s
        </%(SOAP_ACTION)s>
    </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>'''

HOST = 'localhost'
PORT = 8080
SERVICE = '/morph_zta/services/PartyBrokerXrefServices'
SOAP_ACTION = 'createBroker'
SOAP_ARGS = '''            <validFromDate>1999-12-21T00:00:00</validFromDate>
            <validToDate>2000-05-31T13:20:00</validToDate>
            <brokerShortName>BRK A</brokerShortName>
            <library>ZRMORPHSB</library>
            <brokerMnemonic>123456</brokerMnemonic>
            <brokerCode>BKRRR</brokerCode>
            <brokerName>BROKER NAME</brokerName>
            <alternativeBroker>D0000</alternativeBroker>
            <authenticationUser>TestUser</authenticationUser>'''

soap_message = SOAP_MESSAGE_TEMPLATE % {'HOST': HOST,
                                        'PORT': PORT,
                                        'SERVICE': SERVICE,
                                        'SOAP_ACTION': SOAP_ACTION,
                                        'SOAP_ARGS': SOAP_ARGS,}
print 'sending', soap_message

http = httplib.HTTPConnection(HOST, PORT)
http.request('POST',
             SERVICE,
             soap_message,
             headers={'User-Agent': 'Python',
                      'Host': HOST,
                      'Content-Type': 'text/plain',
                      'SOAPAction': SOAP_ACTION})
response = http.getresponse()
print 'got', response.read()

Hnange this to use your SOAP message. Does this also give you a 500?
If so, then the problem is server side, whatever they may tell you.
