Malformed WSDL when generating EchoAttachmentService with ?wsdl

[Patrick Kent <p....@f5.com>]

Did anyone find a solution for this problem? I am seeing exactly the
same thing with the Axis 1.4 EchoAttachment sample, using Tomcat 5.5.17.
 
Changing the namespace as per this post
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user
<http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=axis-user&m=114964405009333&w=2>
&m=114964405009333&w=2) does not remedy the issue.
 
The service works just fine when called from the command-line using the
EchoAttachment client. However, the WSDL is malformed. There is no
definition for DataHandler. I cannot consume this WSDL with more robust
clients such as SOAPScope.
