Wrong wsdl file

Question

Hello everybody!
I'm trying to make a bottom up web service starting from a wsdl file. This wsdl file describes one unique method and when
axis tries to generate the java classes then i get the error message "Error executing Ant". Could anyone possibly take a look at my file and tell his opinion ? What goes wrong? Thank you very much in advance...

I got this from Eclipse/Axis, it looks like you need to define the '{http://itemservice.org}getItemsListRequest' message
IWAB0399E Error in generating Java from WSDL:  java.io.IOException: <input ..>, <output ..> or <fault ..> in <portType> with undefined message found. message name is '{http://itemservice.org}getItemsListRequest'
    java.io.IOException: <input ..>, <output ..> or <fault ..> in <portType> with undefined message found. message name is '{http://itemservice.org}getItemsListRequest'
