ODE strips namespaces and namespace prefix in request

Hi!

It seems that ODE (or Axis?) is deleting namespace declarations and the according namespace prefixes from a variable that is initialized correctly (I gave my best at least). I tried a lot of things to heal this, but nothing worked. The called webservice throws a fault, because it cannot process the input correctly.

This is the request coming from ODE:

It is initialized this way:

This modified request works fine, when called from SoapUI:

</odens:getInfo>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

On the service side it is only about the namspace prefix soapenc: and xs:.

I don't have any idea how to declare the namespaces in a way that the according prefixes are preserved in the requests.

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance!
