The WSDL isn't correct just because one tool can successfully consume the WSDL. It may be that that particular WSDL code generator is perfectly happy to differentiate elements by their prefix - but it doesn't verify that the namespace prefix actually has a URI assigned (which becomes important once you import or include outside XML schemas).

Basically it is saying that in the <part> element of the first <message> element in the WSDL "ns:NewOrder" is being used and that the namespace prefix "ns" hasn't been assigned a namespace URI. So its saying the something like

xmlns:ns="http://www.theirnamespaceuri.com/service/category"

should be in

but isn't (though there are other ways

Try setting the name space to http://ws.paymenttech.net/PaymentechGateway/ That worked for me.
