Xerces defers the loading of schemas. That is, a schema is loaded only when something from its target namespace is required. In your case, your xsd file will only be read if the namespace " http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/schema/REL-5-MM7-1-2 " is referenced. I don't think it's referenced, because there is even no namespace declaration for that namespace.
I also planned to reply your other mail. Here it goes: > 1a) I did _NOT_ see any attempt to retrieve the SOAP schema, as > specified by the root element attribute: > xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; Schema locations are specified using one of the xsi schema location attributes, like what you did for the MM7 schema. A namespace declaration like the above doesn't mean the parser needs to retrieve a schema for that namespace, not to mention that the parser doesn't know where to retrieve such schema. To fix it, add an xsi:schemaLocation attribute for this namespace. So the result would something like: xsi:schemaLocation="mm7_namespace mm7.xsd soap_namespace soap.xsd" This is also the reason why you are seeing the cvc-elt error. You didn't provide a location for the soap namespace, so Xerces couldn't find a declaration for your root element. > Are you also saying that Xerces _can_ do Schema validation _without_ DTD > validation If there is no DTD in your instance, then Xerces only does schema validation. But if you do have a DTD, Xerces validates the instance against both kinds of grammars. This is not correct as per JAXP. We'll fix it so that when schemaLanguage==xmlschema, no DTD validation is performed. Cheers, Sandy Gao Software Developer, IBM Canada (1-905) 413-3255 [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Jesus M.

I just changed the my SOAP envelope so that the root document is now, as you have suggested, like this: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xsi:schemaLocation= " http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/schema/REL-5-MM7-1-2 http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/schema/REL-5-MM7-1-2.xsd "> But the problem now is it does not even seem to try or perform a schema validation. Running a sniffer, no attempt has been made by the parser to retrieve the schema document from www.3gpp.org. But I do still get the following error, also reported on my original post: Error: URI=null Line=8: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'SOAP-ENV:Envelope'. The only way I could achieve some level of schema validation is by using xsi: noNamespaceSchemaLocation, as mentioned in here: http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/JAXPDOM9.html I would prefer declaring the schemas in the XML document itself ... rather than assigning them by code. Any ideas?
