Walden,

The return type from the Java method is string.

Here is the WSDL file:

That exception looks like a connection error, but I might be reading it
wrong. Can you post the WSDL? 

If the WSDL returns a type that isn't defined to .NET then it might have
a problem. Simple types (int, string, etc.) are well-known, but complex
types need to be defined in the WSDL (or something the WSDL refers to).
I know if I allow .NET to generate a WSDL for a class that returns a
DataSet another .NET program will consume it fine since it knows what a
DataSet is, but a Java program would choke. Perhaps you're seeing the
reverse issue.
