Handling BPEL custom business faults in 11g

Question

Hi All,
I am trying to work with 11g BPEL custom business faults based on fault-policies and following options are tried, but no success
1. Use Throw activity to throw business fault and handle it in fault-policies
2. Receive SOAP:Fault from OSB partnerlink and handle it in fault-policies
Flow Description_
BPEL<sync=>OSB
Fault-Policy used*
<faultName xmlns:ns="http://schemas.org/2207/Services"
name="ns:BusinessFault">
<condition>
<action ref="ora-retry"/>
</condition>
</faultName>
OSB WSDL*
&lt;wsdl:message name="Business_ResponseFaultMessage"&gt;
&lt;wsdl:part name="BusinessFault" element="tns:BusinessFault"&gt;&lt;/wsdl:part&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:message&gt;
&lt;wsdl:portType name="IntegrationService"&gt;
&lt;wsdl:operation name="Order"&gt;
&lt;wsdl:input message="tns:IntegrationService_InputMessage"/&gt;
&lt;wsdl:output message="tns:IntegrationService_OutputMessage"/&gt;
&lt;wsdl:fault name="BusinessFault" message="tns:Business_ResponseFaultMessage"&gt;&lt;/wsdl:fault&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:operation&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:portType&gt;
&lt;wsdl:binding name="IntegrationSoap" type="tns:IntegrationService"&gt;
&lt;soap:binding transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"/&gt;
&lt;wsdl:operation name="Order"&gt;
&lt;soap:operation soapAction="Order" style="document"/&gt;
&lt;wsdl:input&gt;
&lt;soap:body use="literal"/&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:input&gt;
&lt;wsdl:output&gt;
&lt;soap:body use="literal"/&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:output&gt;
&lt;wsdl:fault name ="BusinessFault" &gt;
&lt;soap:fault name="BusinessFault" use="literal" /&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:fault&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:operation&gt;
&lt;/wsdl:binding&gt;
I have defined BusinessFault in xsd and xsd is referenced with in OSB WSDL.
*1st case result*
When I use Throw activity,business fault is being raised but always going to CatchAll in BPEL, but I would like to handle through fault-policies.
_2nd case result_
OSB partnerlink is returning SOAP:Fault to BPEL, but BPEL is always taking it as remoteFault, not as a business fault.
When I ran OSB service,I can clearly see SOAP:Fault being thrown,but When I invoke from EM console it is always complaining like
*     Either the WSDL URL is invalid or the WSDL file is not valid or incorrect. - Failed to model operation: {"http://schemas.org/2207/Services}Order(,)*
*Reason: Could not find definition for element: {"http://schemas.org/2207/Services}BusinessFault Detail:*
SOAP:Fault returned by OSB is
&lt;soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"&gt;
&lt;soapenv:Header/&gt;
&lt;soapenv:Body&gt;
&lt;soap-env:Fault xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"&gt;
&lt;faultcode&gt;soap-env:Server&lt;/faultcode&gt;
&lt;faultstring&gt;Unable to find order offer for supplied product: ZINDA&lt;/faultstring&gt;
&lt;detail&gt;
&lt;ns:BusinessFault xmlns:ns="http://schemas.org/2207/Services"&gt;
&lt;OrderResponse xmlns="http://schemas.org/2207/Services" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"&gt;
&lt;Errors&gt;
&lt;ErrorMsgl Code="Unknown"&gt;Unable to find offer for supplied product: ZINDA&lt;/ErrorDetail&gt;
&lt;/Errors&gt;
&lt;Status&gt;Failed&lt;/Status&gt;
&lt;/OrderResponse&gt;
&lt;/ns:BusinessFault&gt;
&lt;/detail&gt;
&lt;/soap-env:Fault&gt;
&lt;/soapenv:Body&gt;
&lt;/soapenv:Envelope&gt;
Any ideas where we are going wrong?
Thanks,
Praveen
