org.w3c.dom.DOMException: WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR: A node is used in a different document than the one that created it

I'm getting an error when I try to generate an element that should look like

<hold/>

Using the java client code generated by Axis2. java snippet

HoldPayment hold = new HoldPayment()
cr.setHold(hold);

but when I fire it off I get an error of WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR. If I don't include this element in the message being fired off it works fine. anyone got any idea how to fix it?

I use this implementation to add Node from one XML document to other.

Node firstDocImportedNode = firstDoc.importNode(secondDocsNode, true);
firstDocNode.appendChild(firstDocImportedNode );

See if this helps. Trick is just importing a Node to other Document, instead of directly appending.
