Odd runtime binding fault

Question

I'm getting the following runtime binding error exception:
<bindingFault>
<part name="code" >
<code>GenericError</code>
</part>
<part name="summary" >
<summary>Failed get wsdl service definition. Failed to get a WSDL service that support the portType "{http://xmlns.oracle.com/prefixer}prefixerPT" in WSDL definition "{http://xmlns.oracle.com/prefixer}prefixer". Please verify that WSDL portType "{http://xmlns.oracle.com/prefixer}prefixerPT" is supported by a service in WSDL file. </summary>
</part>
</bindingFault>
Here's the prefixer.wsdl file. As far as I can tell, prefixerPT is supported. Any idea what's wrong?

Answer 1

if the wsdl from above is the wsdl you try to consume (aka invoke) from your bpel process then it's understandable - as it is abstract .. as runtime you need to have the concrete wsdl andy - with a port and a service, telling bpel what it should bind to ..
if this is the case - point the bpel partnerlink to the concrete wsdl
