The :i appears in the message when the element for a parameter has a local name of "i", has no namespace (which is why there is nothing before the colon) and has no xsi:type attribute. This is typical when using WSDL with a Microsoft SOAP implementation. The standard Apache SOAP workaround for Microsoft interop will work here (as will changing the WSDL to specify the parameter type as xsd:anyType).
