Axis is getting back XML that was not properly formed. In this case, it was looking at something like <mystring>Hello</mystring> and it found a child element: <mystring>Hello <childthing></childthing></mystring>.
That is bad and this error is thrown.

For some reason I get the following error every once in a while, doesnt happen all the time. I usually get this error like once or twice out of 20 times. faultString: org.xml.sax.SAXException : SimpleDeserializer encountered a child element, which is NOT expected, in something it was trying to deserialize. Thanks
