I have tested my web services (wsdl/soap) with soapui. and i have the errors : http/log : error 400 BAD REQUEST.

What can be the error please with my wsdl ?

definitions is a root element of WSDL so it looks like you are not loading WSDL.

Edit:

I tested it and it looks like the whole problem is with your web server. Your web server returns WSDL to browser but it doesn't return it to any tool because these tools are using very minimalistic HTTP requests without many HTTP headers. One of missing headers is Accept. Once this header is not included in the request your server throws HTTP 400 Bad request.

The easy approach to continue is opening WSDL in the browser, save the wsdl to a file and import that file to soapUI instead of the WSDL from URL.

Another possibility is that you need to add ?wsdl at the end of your service url for SoapUI. That one got me as I'm used to WCFClient which didn't need it.

You can try opening the wsdl in web browser and saving with .wsdl extension. And set the WSDL in SOAP UI project to this .wsdl file. This really works.

yes, first ensure you added "?wsdl" to your "http......whatever.svc" link.
- That didn't fix my problem, though. I had to create a new WCF project from the beginning and manually copy the code. That fixed it. Good luck.

And most important!!!

When you change a namespace in your code, also make sure you change it in web.config!

I faced the same exception while trying to test my web-services deployed to WSO2 ESB.

WSO2 generated both wsdl and wsdl2. I tried to pass a wsdl2 URL and got the above exception. Quick googling showed me, that one of differences between wsdl1.1 and wsdl2.0 is replacing 'definitions' element with 'description'. Also, I found out, that SoapUI does not support wsdl2.

Therefore, for me the solution was to use wsdl1 url instead of wsdl2.
