Are you using Doc/Literal or RPC/Encoded? If you are using Doc/Literal, then the namespace comes from the targetNamespace of the <schema> definition that describes the <getWSResponse> element in the <types> section.
If you are using RPC/Encoded, then the namespace comes from the namespace attribute in the WSDL binding/operation/output definition. To specify a specific namespace, you can add a namespace declaration in the WSDD. See http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?AxisProjectPages/Namespaces. In any case, I think this is a bug. Per the WS-I BP, the child element of the SOAP Body must be namespace qualified: 4.1.13 SOAP Body and Namespaces The use of unqualified element names may cause naming conflicts, therefore qualified names must be used for the children of soap:Body. R1014 The children of the soap:Body element in a MESSAGE MUST be namespace qualified. Please file it as a bug.
