ARBCreateSubscription fails: E00045 - The root node does not reference a valid XML namespace.

[afioletov]

We using recommended .net library (https://github.com/AuthorizeNet/sdk-dotnet) version 1.8.1. In the sandbox everything works fine. But as soon as we switch to real account we get this error in response. I check simalar threads. There was such issue with wrong xmlns. I have xmlns="AnetApi/xml/v1/schema/AnetApiSchema.xsd" as it was suggested in those threads.

Below is the sample request we send. Nay ideas what wrong with it?

Care to explain what was wrong?  I am getting the same error.

I ran into the same error message using 1.8.9. When setting up a subscription I used the "customerAddressType" object when assigning to "ARBSubscriptionType.billTo" when I should have been using the "nameAndAddressType".
