Hi Jens, I tested and if you validate the XML using the default validation engine (Xerces) the XML is validated. From what your error message looks like:
Engine name: Saxon-EE 9.3.0.5
you probably defined a custom validation scenario for your XML file and configured as a validation engine Saxon EE. When using "Validate with..." action then Xerces is used for validation and this is why validation is successful. So the question is why Saxon EE reports the XML Schema as invalid. The schema "modsCluster.xsd" has a reference to the "xlink.xsd" like:
<xs:import namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/standards/xlink/xlink.xsd"/>
reference which is correct. We'll investigate this and get back with more details. Regards, Radu Radu Coravu <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com On 10/7/2011 2:13 PM, Jens Østergaard Petersen wrote:
Hi,
I am sure I am just missing something obvious, but here goes!
I have a document like
When I simply "Validate" this, that is click the red checkmark, I get
SystemID: http://cluster-schemas.uni-hd.de/modsCluster.xsd Main validation file: /Users/jens/Desktop/Untitled1.xml Schema: http://cluster-schemas.uni-hd.de/modsCluster.xsd Engine name: Saxon-EE 9.3.0.5 Severity: fatal Description: The attributeGroup {simpleLink} is referenced, but has not been declared Start location: 1051:0 …
The MODS schema in question references the XLink schema which declares the xlink:simpleLink attributeGroup, but the link to the XLink schema is obviously not de-referenced.
However, when I choose "Validate with …" by clicking on the arrow to the right of the checkmark and feed the schemaLocation contained in the MODS document (namely,<http://cluster-schemas.uni-hd.de/modsCluster.xsd>), the document validates. In this case then, the XLink schema must be referenced.
What explains this difference?
When I open the schema at<http://cluster-schemas.uni-hd.de/modsCluster.xsd>, the XLink schema is also not de-referenced.
Best,
Jens
