XML XSD Error : org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: s4s-elt-schema-ns: The namespace of element 'Config' must be from the schema namespace

Question

I have a very simple XML & XSD which is throwing following error during parsing.

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: s4s-elt-schema-ns: The namespace of element 'Config' must be from the schema namespace, 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'.

XML Goes here :

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
 <Config>

        <Test Script="final.sh" />

    </Config>

XSD Goes here:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

    <xs:element name="Config">
        <xs:complexType>

        <xs:all> 
            <xs:element name="Test" minOccurs="0">
                <xs:complexType>
                    <xs:attribute name="Script" type="xs:string" use="required" />          

                </xs:complexType>
            </xs:element>

        </xs:all>

        </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>

</xs:schema>

Use SW such as Oxygen to help you spot your errors. I think you miss namespace declaration in your xml file, put it into your root element, something like this: <Config xmlns:xs="http:// www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> . Plus add document declaration to the věry top of your xml file. — i-bob
Tru this or something similar: <Config xmlns:xs="http:// www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"></Config> — i-bob
Also you can put this <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> to the věry top of your xml file. — i-bob
Look to this resource so that you know what you are doping wrong www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_namespaces.asp — i-bob

I tried it out in Oxygen and document was valid.

here are the two files I used:

xsd file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 

<Config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation='schema.xsd'>

    <Test Script="final.sh" />

</Config>

xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">   
    <xs:element name="Config">
        <xs:complexType>

            <xs:all> 
                <xs:element name="Test" minOccurs="0">
                    <xs:complexType>
                        <xs:attribute name="Script" type="xs:string" use="required" />          

                    </xs:complexType>
                </xs:element>

            </xs:all>

        </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

Make sure you attach xsd schema to xml file correctly, then it should be fine.
