Unable to consume WSDL in Mule 4 - mule

I am using anypoint studio 7.3.1 with Mule 4.1.x. trying to load the WSDL using Web Service Consumer.
First I placed my WSDL file under src/main/resources of my project.
In Web Service Consumer, under connector configuration I selected my WSDL and at this point the mulesoft should automatically populate “Service”, “Port” and “Address”.
However that is not happening. I read somewhere that WSDL file needs to be exported to mule-artifact.json which I did, but still doesn’t work.
To make sure my WSDL is good, I was able to load the same WSDL in soapUI and was able to access the web service.
What is it that I need to do to get this working? Is there any error log that tells what’s going on? By the way, the endpoint is http so I know there is no cert issue.

the problem was due to the xsd that was referred in the WSDL. Removed that and it worked

Mule Web Service Consumer not loading WSDL

I am trying to load WSDL using mule's Web Service Consumer but no success. If I try same WSDL from SOAPUI it works without running into any issues.
I tried below 2 options and both directing me to different issues. Any suggestion?
Option#1. Tried to load WSDL with URL gives me PKIX path building failed as below
Option#2. Also, tried to load WSDL as resource i.e. by saving it into src/main/resources folder. This gives me below
NOTE: I am using Anypoint Studio 6.4.4 with mule Community Edition 3.9 and JDK 1.8.
WSDL: https://esweb.revenue.louisiana.gov/fsettest/fsetgatewaywebservice.asmx?wsdl
you need to add the wsdl certificate to Java cacerts keystore. Here you have a useful link:
https://knowledge.digicert.com/solution/SO4085.html
On the other hand, you are getting the second error, because that wsdl you downloaded has an import of another wsdl (this is the other wsdl http://esweb.revenue.louisiana.gov/fsettest/fsetgatewaywebservice.asmx?wsdl=wsdl1).
If you want to do it this way (that I would not recommend), you will need to download all the wsdls that are imported, and reference them locally.

WCF fails to import WSDL

I'm trying to "Add Service Reference" with WCF to the following wsdl: https://se-face-webservice.redsara.es/sspp?wsdl
The visual studio does not provide any warning but the reference.cs is empty and no serialization took place.
I have already tried removing the "Reuse types in specified referenced assemblies", however the serialization stills fails.
If I tried to add the service with the WcfTestClient it gives an error stating that : 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/Array' is not defined.
Finally, when I add the wsdl through a "Add Web Reference" the serialization takes place. I'm guessing that maybe the service is using "unknown" bindings to WCF.
Is there a work around for this situation?
PS: If I use the SoapUI to generate the client everything works fine.
Your WSDL is faulty. It defines the prefix soap-enc, but does not define the schema which defines it. The WSDL is assuming that the http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ schema is automatically defined.
Perhaps this service is built on an old version of Axis? I have seen that version assume that the consumer is also built on Axis.
I've tried good old wsdl.exe for generating web service references with System.Web.Services and seems to work - generating and compilation at least :-)
Can you check it? Link to project on bitbucket. Just simple console app with references and generated assemblies.

and interesting one - generated proxy class https://bitbucket.org/polacekpavel/servicestack_27747564/src/c43b90221fae7ceb2e234552b9f57034551b3cbf/SSPPWebServiceProxyService.cs?at=master

WCF message: protocol in To element changes

I have a WCF service to consume in .NET. As per requirement the Action element in the header has to be "http://abc" and the To element has to be "ws://xyz" in order for the service to recognize and respond to the request. The soapAction of the operation is however blank in WSDL and it can't be changed.
My service configuration built programmatically is this:
text message encoding binding with Soap11 envelope version and WSAddressing10 addressing version
no security biding
http transport binding
The setup I found achieving this requirement is "ws://xyz" as the endpoint URL and Request.Headers.Action set to "http://abc" in BeforeSendRequest using a message inspector added using an endpoint behaviour attached to the endpoint. Then I also attach a ClientViaBehavior with the URL of "http://abc".
On my development machine this causes as required
<a:Action>http://abc</a:Action>
<a:To>ws://xyz</a:To>
However on the test server it generates
<a:Action>http://abc</a:Action>
<a:To>http://xyz</a:To>
I don't know exact configuration of the server but I believe it is Windows server as is my development box. Does the same code generates different messages on two different machines or how else would I achieve this? I should also say it worked fine for several weeks and stopped last Monday.
I have found the following later:
The test server has .NET 4.5 on it as well as another machine I tried it on (also failed). The dev machine where it works fine has just .NET 4.0 on it which would suggest it could have something to do with it. However I have no evidence it is caused by .NET 4.5 as it was installed several weeks before the problem appeared. Moreover there have been no Windows updates since it stopped to work!
I've also tried to set the To element in my ClientMessageInspector implementation but the protocol still gets flipped to http.
I think the BeforeSendRequest is not called due miss configration of your service bindings. Check if you have added the the extention configuration to you service endpoints you want to have the behavior.

Error message from svcutil.exe - what does it mean?

I've had not a lot of luck creating a WCF service with Visual Studio. It's in IIS, and it I click 'browse' on the .svc file itself, it tells me I have created a service. So I assume it's all okay to a point.
Throughout my time I came across a recommendation to use a program called svcutil.exe. I used it on my service and got the following error. I don't know what it means, so hopefully someone can shed some light on the situation.
Here's the result:

I think this previous Stack Overflow question may help with your current question but not necessarily your problem.
Error: Cannot import wsdl:port with svcutil
You've created your WCF service and you've browsed to it in IIS so you're happy that it is working. The purpose of SVCUtil.exe is to generate classes that you can use in an application to interact with the service with compile time information on the contract members and methods.
it performs the exact same function as adding a service reference in visual studio to consume the service.
If your having trouble, i'd suggest just creating a simple console project in visual studio, adding a service reference and giving it the url of the service you've hosted in IIS. Then click "show all files" in the visual studio solution explorer and look at the reference.cs file it gives you. This will show you what information has been consumed from your service.
Edit
Hi Again,
After going through all the comments below I'm starting to see more about your problem. I think you misunderstand what it is your doing when in fact you've already achieved what you want to achieve.
The original project, the one you had with the WCF test client that worked did what you needed. It is a fully fledged WCF Service. All you needed to do was right click the solution in visual studio and publish it. If you then make sure that you make an IIS virtual directory point at your solution, through the publish wizard. Then when you run your project and then browse to that url, that will give you a service to consume for testing purposes.
What you are doing at the moment, creating a WCF project, adding that DLL to a website project is fundamentally wrong: The example you followed, presumably this one :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733766.aspx
is about creating a WCF service in a web site project from scratch. Not about adding a pre-existing WCF project and hosting it.
Your essentially trying to do one thing in two different ways together.
Your current course of action is to either remove the DLL in your web project and then create the service there. Or host your current WCF service in IIS ( the project you downloaded from me or your original one)
At this point you have a hosted service. Then usually you have an application to interact wtih it. This you found using svcutil and can be done in one of two ways:
You create the console application and do "Add Service Reference" to the URL you have hosted in IIS.
Or you use SVC Util.exe point it at the url which generates a class file you include in your console / application.
I hope that clears things up about WCF and what stages to use various tools?
Edit 2
Just in case you don't get to the Chat:
I still think theres something wrong with your original project. I'm not sure what you mean by the one with the DLL either? if that means your website project with the dll of the WCF project, then no not that one.
I've taken the project I sent you earlier. I've hosed that in IIS so that when i browse to localhost/EvalService on my machine i get the standard
"EvalService Service
You have created a service.
To test this service, you will need to create a client and use it to call the service. You can do this using the svcutil.exe tool from the command line with the following syntax:"
Once I had that set up i created a console application, "added service reference" in visual studio and it consumed teh service no problem.
Try doing the above with the project I sent you and see how far you get.

Unable to reference WSDL of WCF web service hosted on AppFabric

I have developed a WCF service and, while in Visual Studio 2010, I can import the WSDL without a problem. After I've deployed it to AppFabric, I get the WSDL, but several schema files referenced internally in the WSDL cannot be found, for some reason. I don't know if it's a configuration issue, or what. The error I get when I try to process the WSDL in Visual Studio 2010 follows below:
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved:
'http://myserver.mydomain.com:9871/app_deploy/MyAppService.svc?wsdl'.
The WSDL document contains links that could not be resolved.
There was an error downloading 'http://myserver.mydomain.com:9871/app_deploy/MyAppService.svc?xsd=xsd0'.
The request failed with HTTP status 502: Proxy Error ( The
specified network name is no longer available. ).
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved:
'http://myserver.mydomain.com:9871/app_deploy/MyAppService.svc'.
There was no endpoint listening at http://myserver.mydomain.com:9871/app_deploy/MyAppService.svc
that could accept the message. This is
often caused by an incorrect address
or SOAP action. See InnerException, if
present, for more details.
The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the
solution and adding the service reference again.
The error is a proxy error because it goes through a proxy, but the error is because the page isn't there. I've tried accessing http://localhost:9871/app_deploy/MyAppService.svc?xsd=xsd0 at the server, but I get 404.
Why wouldn't these xsd files being found? Is it a deployment issue?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Man, I finally found the problem here. I needed write permission on C:\Windows\Temp for Application Pool user!
