How To generate WCF for specific WSDL

Question

We have to call a specific soap webservice and are not able to generate the needed .NET Proxy classes. We tried to do it with the svcutil.exe as well as simply add the service reference in visual studio but we get the same errors. We just don't know what's wrong with this wsdl. The errors are:

Custom tool warning: Cannot import wsdl:portTypeDetail: An exception was thrown while running a WSDL import extension: System.ServiceModel.Description.XmlSerializerMessageContractImporterError: These members may not be derived.XPath to Error Source: //wsdl:definitions[@targetNamespace=' http://localhost:8000/ibis/ws/Tasklist ']/wsdl:portType[@name='TaskControl_- WSC -_MainPortType']

SoapUi seems to have no problems with it.

Does anybody have an idea what the problem is?

The Comment from Yawar Murtaza is the solution:

• svcutil does not generate soap client

We just renamed "Parameters" to "Parameters1" and it worked.

Thank you !
