| Notice! This page describes the nature of the error using a hypothetical example and not the erroneous data of the input test file. You should however be able to apply this information to your error case. |
General description of the error:
The format of the error message: cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element ''{0}'' cannot have character [children], because the type''s content type is element-only.
Error description in schema standard: http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-xmlsche...c-complex-type
Possible causes for this error:
- Element has text content while schema definition says it must only have element content i.e. children elements.
- In addition, double "larger than" character at the end of closing tag is considered as element data, thus triggering this error. Make sure following is not present in XML: </Name>> or </Name>> (if the report contains myriad amount of data and this error is given in odd location, it might be a good idea to search for ">>" and ">>")
An example
| <letter> |
Error message: Error cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element 'letter' cannot have character [children], because the type's content type is element-only.
Meaning of error: Data is given inside complexType element <letter> and not inside simpleType <Name>. ComplexType elements may only contain elements and not data.
How to fix: This issue can be fixed by removing the text content of the given element and using valid elements only as a content.
