If you run a schema validation on your input message, then you'd get an XML type violation. You can also catch the Java exception on the server and map it to a SOAP fault.
I always think it's appropriate to map your Java exceptions to platform neutral SOAP faults.

'cause this is Axis (or java) specific, I would change it to something like "WSDL Violation - wrong paramester type" or so. Wouldnt this make more sense ? or: Why does it not make sense ? Thanks a lot in advance ! Best regards - Henning
