Why am I getting INVALID_WSDL: Expected element '{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/}definitions error

Below is the definitions section of my .wsdl.  It clearly has the attribute that SoupUI asserts as missing.  What am I doing wrong?

 

<definitions xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"

    Hi,

     

    The first thing I do before I try importing a .wsdl is to check that it's wellformed and schema valid.  If the file is malformed xml or invalid, this will cause problems.

     

    I had a quick look (after Id removed those annoying emojis that automatically generate) and noticed 2 instances of you referencing elements to the ns1 namespace - but the namespace declarations immediately below the prolog dont include a namespace with the identifier ns1.

     

    Once I'd fixed that - I pointed them to the tns namespace as I think that's what they should be pointing at - I started finding more schema invalid issues.  Each one I tried fixing just lead onto another - I'm sorry - I don't know what your .wsdl is supposed to look like to fix all the issues I'm afraid

     

    You'll need to fix these before the .wsdl can be loaded into SoapUI - this is why you're getting the invalid wsdl error - the file is schema invalid.

     

    I suggest you go back to whoever supplied the .wsdl and ask them to try and validate it, then they'll see the various problems I found that will need to be fixed before this can successfully be loaded into SoapUI.

     

    Sorry I can't be more help,

     

    Cheers,

    Hey there,

     

    1) What version of ReadyAPI/SoapUI are you using?

    2) Could you upload your .wsdl file and any error logs?

     

    Best,

    Calvin

      Hello Mickey,

       

      Thank you for your wsdl file. May I please have your error logs that I requested as well?

       

      They should be located within the SoapUI bin directory (path should look like so: C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.4.0\bin\soapui-errors.log)

       

      Best,

      Calvin

      Hi Mickey,

       

      Thank you for the error log. Strangely I do not see the invalid_wsdl error in your error log. Does this error occur/pop up when you try to import your wsdl to SoapUI or something else perhaps like running it? Could you take a screenshot of this pop up? Could I also have you restart SoapUI, click on the error log on the bottom, import/run your wsdl file, then take a screenshot of the error that pops up please?

       

      Best,

      Calvin

      Hi,

       

      The first thing I do before I try importing a .wsdl is to check that it's wellformed and schema valid.  If the file is malformed xml or invalid, this will cause problems.

       

      I had a quick look (after Id removed those annoying emojis that automatically generate) and noticed 2 instances of you referencing elements to the ns1 namespace - but the namespace declarations immediately below the prolog dont include a namespace with the identifier ns1.

       

      Once I'd fixed that - I pointed them to the tns namespace as I think that's what they should be pointing at - I started finding more schema invalid issues.  Each one I tried fixing just lead onto another - I'm sorry - I don't know what your .wsdl is supposed to look like to fix all the issues I'm afraid

       

      You'll need to fix these before the .wsdl can be loaded into SoapUI - this is why you're getting the invalid wsdl error - the file is schema invalid.

       

      I suggest you go back to whoever supplied the .wsdl and ask them to try and validate it, then they'll see the various problems I found that will need to be fixed before this can successfully be loaded into SoapUI.

       

      Sorry I can't be more help,

       

      Cheers,
