Error while importing webservice in CAF. CE 7.2

[former_member312910]

Hi All

I am trying to reimport a web service in my CAF application. The old service has undergone changes in structure.

> I opened the CAF DC expanded the u201Cexternalu201D node

> opened the package containing the service

> Right clicked and selected delete with Data types. Service got deleted

> Then clicked on save

> Right clicked on the external node

> Import  Web service

> Enter the Service URL and click on next, select no service groups

> On final step of finish I get the error

Web Service can not be imported due to some errors. See log for further details.

java.lang.NullPointerException

Deepu,

Delete the namespace of external service.

save and generate the project before reimporting the external service.

not sure there is a way out in CE 7.2 SP 10. without deleting namespace.
