Cause:
==========
The reason for the exception is that the input schema had the payload not defined in the format that TIBCO BusinessEvents understands. To include a payload in a Rendezvous message, ensure that the message has a _payload_ field.  Also, the complex datatype is not a supported _payload_ field datatypes.

Resolution:
==========
Modify the payload field of the input schema to _payload_ and make sure Supported _payload_ field datatypes and Rendezvous wire format types are used.The supported _payload_ field datatypes are as follows:

1). String
2). TibrvXML
3). byte[]
