Ishika,

The basic point is that there is an error in the XML document which can be checked and validated using lot of third party tools.

One among them is the Altova XML spy which can be used to create, validate XSD's and XML.

Try reading w3schools.com for knowledge of the same.

Hi

check for the validity of the wsdl in an xml editor like altova xmlspy/any other equivalent editor
