Error message : unexpected element name:

Question

Hi people,
I'm trying to consume an external web service and encountered the following error when trying to run the service in JDeveloper. I'm new to both java and WSDL. Please lend a helping hand. Thanks for your help in advance.
Error:

Answer 1

I do not understand this WSDL! Its wrong!!
For e.g. why is this section repeated so many times:
<complexType name="CrmCustomerId">
<sequence>
<element name="SETID" nillable="false" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="CPL_LEGACY_ID" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="CUST_ID" nillable="true" type="xsd:string"/>
<element name="RESPOND_MSG" nillable="false" type="xsd:integer"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
Also when creating what mapping did you choose? JAX-B or JAX-RPC?
Try JAX-B.
