Error: to obtain an initial context with the provider URL: "

Hi,

I am new to SOAP UI testing. I have wsdl which I loaded and created request, but response always comes as

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soapenv:Body>
<soapenv:Fault>
<faultcode>soapenv:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring>A communication failure occurred while attempting to obtain an initial context with the provider URL: "iiop://localhost:7001". Make sure that any bootstrap address information in the URL is correct and that the target name server is running. A bootstrap address with no port specification defaults to port 2809. Possible causes other than an incorrect bootstrap address or unavailable name server include the network environment and workstation network configuration.</faultstring>
<detail/>
</soapenv:Fault>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Can somebody help me in figuring it out the issue here?

Thanks
Prem

    Looks like there is an application server involved. Please check the configuration on the application side and see if the application is working properly. Also it will help you if you can talk to the service provider in case if you are not the one who developing the server side.
