Null Pointer Exception importing WSDL / XSD file using SoapUI 3.0.1

Question

I am trying to get experience with SoapUI using the WSDL for the first webservice listed here.... https://www.flightstats.com/developers/ ... vices/WSDL

I have downloaded the AirlineService.wsdl AirlineService.xsd files which I've also attached but when I try to import the WSDL using SoapUI v3.0.1 I get the following error but don't know why. Can you advise please?

Hi!I saved these files to a local folder and could import the WSDL just fine.. please try the nightly build available at http://www.eviware.com/nightly-builds to see if that works better!regards,/Oleeviware.com

I've installed soapUI v3.0.2 and repeated the process but got the same error.

I now realise that the problem was due to a non-xml file being present in the folder referenced by my Schema directory path in my WSDL settings under my soapUI Preferences. ie soapUI processes these files even when you aren't pointing at the folder to import the WSDL file.
Perhaps something to check for when users have problems with WSDL files that look fine.

Thanks for quick reply.

Hi!thanks for pointing that out, I'll add a check right away!regards,/Oleeviware.com

Hi again.. was this a non-xml file or a xml file which was not an xsd?regards!/Oleeviware.com

A completely non-xml file, a Microsoft Word document in fact.Hence the message in the log. The 5th supplied input is not a schema document: its type is N=], see error log for details
