BPEL designer default relative URI when importing wsdl

Question

I'm using BPEL designer 10.1.3.1.0 The designer generated a reference service wsdl file "MyServiceRef.wsdl" that imports the service "MyService.wsdl" I intended to use.
The import line reads like:
<import namespace="http://my.namespace/" location="../public_html/WEB-INF/wsdl/MyService.wsdl"/>
When deploying the BPEL project, I got error that "Failed to read wsdl", in which the deploying process looked for the wsdl file at location
<BPEL HOME>\domains\default\tmp\.bpel_ProjectName_ff8d276f54525c078b0828ce6f764002.tmp
I tried to modify the line to use the full URI to point to the correct location but it wouldn't compile. Can someone help point out what is wrong?
Thanks,
Wen

1. The web service "MyService" was generated using BPEL designer's wizard: New -> Business Tier -> Java Web Services (There's one java class compiled within the project.)
2. When I was adding the service into my BPEL flow, jdeveloper automatically generated the reference "MyServiceRef" as mentioned in the first post. This reference service imports MyService, at relative URI as correctly described in the import statement.
3. Compiling the BPEL ->success
4. Deploying BPEL, somehow it looks for MyService.wsdl at a wrong location
MyService.wsdl

Make sure wsdl exists at that URL and is valid.
