[jbossws-users] Namespace problem: Requested element {http://gaws.mec.com/rta/ws/types}businessDate is not allowed in this position in the sequence.

[Douglas Fraser]

hi everyone,

   I have JBoss 4.0.5.GA, and am using JBoss WS 1.2.1.  I have created a
web service (using wstools - not wscompile etc) and the beans, ear etc
deploy fine.   The WSDL generated from wstools looks ok (to me).  But
when I try to use a client written in PHP (using the SOAP extension) I
am getting this all the time:

Caused by: org.jboss.xb.binding.JBossXBRuntimeException: Requested
element {http://gaws.mec.com/rta/ws/types}businessDate is not allowed in
this position in the sequence. The next element should be businessDate

this is the SOAP Request

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:ns1="http://gaws.mec.com/rta/ws/types">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<ns1:notifyStatusChange>
<ns1:businessDate>2007-05-02T12:00:00</ns1:businessDate>
<ns1:community>testing</ns1:community>
<ns1:status>OPEN</ns1:status>
</ns1:notifyStatusChange>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

As you can see, the fields within the notifyStatusChange structure are
given a namespace of ns1.   the WSDL is defined as such:

   <schema targetNamespace='http://gaws.mec.com/rta/ws/types'
xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'
xmlns:soap11-enc='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/'
xmlns:tns='http://gaws.mec.com/rta/ws/types'
xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'>
    <complexType name='NotifyAccountControl'>
     <sequence>
      <element name='account' type='int'/>
      <element name='accountStatus' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='agentNumber' type='int'/>
      <element name='balance' nillable='true' type='decimal'/>

      <element name='businessDate' nillable='true' type='dateTime'/>
      <element name='community' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='division' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='rejectReason' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='timeZone' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='transactionDate' nillable='true' type='dateTime'/>
      <element name='transactionType' nillable='true' type='string'/>
      <element name='window' type='int'/>
     </sequence>
    </complexType>

.... and so on

so .... obviously JBoss does not like the subfields being tagged with a
namespace (as far as I can tell, all my research has been of no help).
But I can't figure out how to get the PHP client to stop tagging the
subfields.  I am not an expert on WSDL etc so I am not even sure if the
PHP client should be doing that.  Should something in the WSDL change
(as the PHP is working off that as a basis)?

So...  is there anything I can do to the Java code to get it to stop
being so sensitive?   Is this a valid error?

Or does anyone know what to do in the PHP (I tried using the nusoap
library and that worked even worse...)?

Or do I just have to write a Java based client for testing as
anything-but-java is not up to spec like JBossWS is?
But then the real client (another company using Microsoft .NET) is
probably going to have problems....

Help!
