No definition found

[Ismael]

I'm using Zeep 2.5.0
The WSDL is at: https://gist.github.com/Ismael/67973e62394c80623c56ad7582a88841

The WSDL service is created with Spyne.

Other SOAP client libraries are working with the service.

Hey Ismael,
I have a similar problem with a customer API. How did you proceed, did you find a solution?
Regards, Patrick

I'm working with:
https://s-api.fifthplay.com/mobile/v7/DeviceService.svc?wsdl
and that loads fine with SoapGUI, but I get:

I just used another SOAP client library. PySimpleSoap as I recall worked ok.

That's not exactly what I wanted to hear. ;) But thanks a lot for a quick response!
