Org.xml.sax.SAXException: Invalid element error when using code in view project

Question

I have a SOAP (RPC style) client bundled in a jar. It uses Axis1.4.
I have created a ADFBC model project with programmatic view & entity objects that uses this soap client for CRUD operations.
The Model project works fine when I run the Appmodule and a standalone java tester class.
This model project is then deployed as a library and included in a different ADF web application.
When running this application, I get the following exception for one method.
Has anyone faced this issue? Any idea what's going on?
Surprisingly, "dbAttributes" -the cause of the error is not even in the User class (or any other class in the entire application)!
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5. Issue occurs in integrated wls.

org.xml.sax.SAXException: Invalid element in
I think this is a very common problem, and the sad thing is there are so many forums with no answers. I was getting this error because I was using client stubs generated by wscompile instead of wsdl2java. Once i used the stubs from wsdl2java, the error vanished****. I think its because the wscompile classes do not have property descriptors for each field in the response class. an example of such descriptors would be:
        typeDesc.setXmlType(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("https://ns.ns.btu", "LoginResponseData"));
        org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc elemField = new org.apache.axis.description.ElementDesc();
        elemField.setFieldName("sessionID");
        elemField.setXmlName(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("https://ns.ns.btu", "SessionID"));
        elemField.setXmlType(new javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema", "int"));
        elemField.setNillable(false);
        typeDesc.addFieldDesc(elemField);The wsdl2java classes do have these descriptors for each field.
