[GeoNetwork-users] Root element not set

GeoNetwork GeoNetwork User
1

I transformed some fgdc metadata into ISO using saxon and this xslt:
http://www.ncddc.noaa.gov/technology/metadataandxml/files/csdgm2iso19115-220110228.xslt
After all metadata was transformed I tried to import it into Geonetwork and
I get the error:"Root element not set"

The top of my xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Does this look right?

Thanks.

Hi,

The <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> is not the root element. It is the XML declaration. The root element is the content after the next "<". You need to send us what that content looks like including its attributes. IE. Everything between the "<" and the ">".

Thanks.

John

Strange. If you look at my post at http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Root-element-not-set-td6247338.html you can see I did post it.
Somehow it got striped.
I am going to try to send it to the listserv via this e-mail. If it does not appear below, can you please look at the url above? Thanks!

Try changing your namespace declarations and schema location to this:
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&quot;
xmlns:gmd="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd&quot;
xmlns:gco="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco&quot;
xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink&quot;
xmlns:srv="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/srv&quot;
xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2&quot;
xmlns:gsr="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gsr&quot;
xmlns:gss="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gss&quot;
xmlns:gts="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gts&quot;
xmlns:gmx="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmx&quot;
xmlns:gmi="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmi&quot;
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmi
..\schemas\ISOngdc\schema.xsd">

...remove srv namespace if that is not in use (otherwise GN will assume it
is an ISO 19119 record).

I have noticed that sometimes GeoNetwork does not like the gml/3.2
delcaration. If that is the case (will be noticeable in the validation) then
use this declaration for gml
xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml&quot;
