WSDL error ... please help !

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm going crazy trying to find what is wrong with this wsdl. Note that it is generated by axis.

When I try to generate a proxy for it , I get this error :

WSDL part <firstname> points to unavailable type with qname: <string>

It points me to getPerson firstname ... but I don't see what is wrong with the way it is defined...

If you can help , it would be really appreciated !!!!

hi,

just a guess: it might have to do with the fact that the attribute parameterOrder used in operation getPerson is not supported. Try to get rid of it on the service side (doesn't make much sense anyway for 2 parameters) and try to create the proxy again.

maybe it helps,
