[lxml-dev] Document is not valid XML Schema

[Jeff Cheng]

I am trying to validate XML files against their respective schemas.
However, lxml complains that the schemas are not valid.



Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Mar 13 2007, 08:13:14)

[GCC 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)] on cygwin

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> from lxml import etree

>>> f = file("linux-definitions-schema.xsd")

>>> xmlschema_doc = etree.parse(f)

>>> xmlschema = etree.XMLSchema(xmlschema_doc)

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

  File "xmlschema.pxi", line 61, in etree.XMLSchema.__init__

etree.XMLSchemaParseError: Document is not valid XML Schema

 

The schemas are from Mitre
(http://oval.mitre.org/language/download/schema/version5.2/index.html#do
wnloads) and are assumed to be valid.

 

I am using python-2.5, lxml-1.2.1, and libxml2-2.6.26 on cygwin.  Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
