CXF error in EAP 6: unexpected element (uri:"uri:someNamespace", local:"operationName"). Expected elements are <{}operationName>

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • After upgrading to EAP 6.2.x, my endpoint has started throwing this error:
unexpected element (uri:"http://webservice/service/MyWebService/data/schema", local:"operationName1"). 
Expected elements are <{}operationName1>,<{}operationName2>,<{}operationName3>
  • Redefinition of default namespace like the following one causes parsing error when JAX-WS handler is configured.
<a xmlns="someNamespace">
  <b xmlns=""/>
</a>

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP)
    • 6.2.2 - 6.2.4
    • 6.3.0 - 6.3.1
