  Cause:
  The error can occur due to several reasons:
  
  Unsupported Data Type: The structure defined for the service group includes a component that is not supported by the Web Service framework. This could be a complex type or a data type that cannot be serialized/deserialized properly.

  Regenerate the Service: After making changes to the structure, regenerate the service interface and the corresponding proxy classes to ensure that the changes are reflected.
  
  
  Check Service Group Configuration: Ensure that the service group is correctly configured and that all components are properly defined.
  
  
  Test the Service: After making the necessary changes, test the service to ensure that it works as expected without throwing the error.
