#1 Couldn't find root element (/xs:schema/xs:element) or administrative elements (/xs:schema/[xs:complexType | xs:simpleType]) in a document.

Hi, I am trying to see if I can convert http://accellera.org/images/xmlschema/ipxact/1685-2014/catalog.xsd into pgschema and I get the following error:

$ java -jar xsd2pgschema-2.0.0/xsd2pgschema.jar --xsd catalog.xsd
Couldn't find root element (/xs:schema/xs:element) or administrative elements (/xs:schema/[xs:complexType | xs:simpleType]) in a document.

Any ideas?

Dear Khailtash,

Thank you for your notice.
It seems xml.xsd has no any effective element that prevents schema generation. I have relaxed this restriction in currently available v2.1.0.
Please update xsd2pgschema, then type

$ java -jar xsd2pgschema-2.0.0/xsd2pgschema.jar --xsd http://accellera.org/images/xmlschema/ipxact/1685-2014/catalog.xsd -ddl catalog.schema

New version can automatically retreive other XML Schemata if you set URL of XML Schema.

Best regards,

Masashi

Thank you that is great. I assume the warning can be ignored:

WARNING: Couldn't find root element (/xs:schema/xs:element) or administrative elements (/xs:schema/[xs:complexType | xs:simpleType | xs:attributeGroup | xs:group]) in XML Schema: xml.xsd
