Null pointer exception in findOperationForRequest

[richard_mccarth]

I have a simple WSDL (see end of post) and when I create a mock service from it and try to invoke the only opertion I get the following exception stack, any ideas what could be causing this ?

SOAP UI seems to happy to create a sample response but it does not make a sample request, just an empty soap body in the envelope.

The WSDL is shown below

Doh, found the issue. My WSDL was incorrect in the message definiton for the input.

 
     
 

This should not contain an xs:element but a wsdl:part

Apart from my dumb mistake I am surprised that XML spy would validate the wsdl.
