Web service callout failed: Unable to parse callout response. Apex type not found for element active error while reading Validation Rule

Hi All,

I am using the following code to read the details of 10 validation Rules. Following is the code:

             MetadataService.MetadataPort service = createService();           
            List<MetadataService.ListMetadataQuery> queries = new List<MetadataService.ListMetadataQuery>();      
            MetadataService.ListMetadataQuery queryLayout = new MetadataService.ListMetadataQuery();
            queryLayout.type_x = 'ValidationRule';
            queries.add(queryLayout);   
            if(Limits.getHeapSize()<3000000)
            {
            MetadataService.FileProperties[] fileProperties = service.listMetadata(queries, 30);
            List<String> fullNames = new List<String>();
            if(fileProperties!=null)
            {
                for(MetadataService.FileProperties fileProperty : fileProperties)
                {
                    if(fullNames.size()<10 && fileProperty.fullName!=null && fileProperty.ManageableState == 'unmanaged')
                    {
                        fullNames.add(fileProperty.fullName);
                    }
                }
            }

            MetadataService.ReadResult resultValue = service.readMetadata('ValidationRule',fullNames);
-- Error: Web service callout failed: Unable to parse callout response. Apex type not found for element active

Let me know what is wrong in the above call.

Thanks

use the SoapUI tool to test your web service for proper handling..

SoapUI is just a google search away.

it is not free, but there is a trial use period..
