The "Assertion failure" happens there (in the server) and not on the client side. Usually, an "Assertion failure" is a programming error (of the component which checks the assertion). However, in some cases, other components (such as the client, in your case) might be directly responsible or have at least triggered the problem. I would approach as follows: Tell "suds" to log the outgoing messages; lock at those messages whether they are correct. If they are, contact the web service administrator and ask him for help.
