URGENT HELP! - The prefix "xsi" for attribute "xsi:type" is not bound

Question

Hi! i createD a WebService using the JWSDP 1.2. In the server-side i read a xml file, create another empty Document and using the importNode() method i populate the empty created doc. The problem is when i try to send client this created document. I'm using the DOMSource to send it to client side. Both client and WS method code are below! Does anyone know the answer??
And I'm getting this error:
[java] Endpoint address = http://localhost:8080/cm/ContextManager
[java] [Fatal Error] :2:42: The prefix "xsi" for attribute "xsi:type" is not bound.

Does anyone know what could it be? Please, it's very urgent!
Tks in Advance,

Answer 1

The xml i'm trying to send is below. It's important explain that in a standalone app it works perfectly. Unfortunately, when i perform the same actions in the WS world, it doesn't work. See, i tried to put the attributes inside the root element with the setAttributeNS() method but i got the same error again. How could i bound the attribute with no errors like that said before???
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<device xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="context.xsd">
<Identity xsi:type="fooType">
               <Name>
                    <GivenName>Rodrigo</GivenName>
                    <FamilyName>Felicio</FamilyName>
               </Name>
          </Identity>
<Identity xsi:type="foowType">
               <DeviceID>dev00345</DeviceID>
          </Identity>
</device>
Regards,
Rodrigo.
