ETF XML Schema validation: Valid service metadata failed with srv.xsd OGC schema

[dgterritorio]

Test report: hhttp://inspire-sandbox.jrc.ec.europa.eu/etf-webapp//v2/TestRuns/EIDeeee370d-7d3c-46b2-9fea-4c90f72b61e5.html

Conformant class: https://github.com/inspire-eu-validation/metadata/tree/1.3/xml-encoding
teste4sdg.zip

This service metadata file is valid with xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/srv http://schemas.opengis.net/iso/19139/20070417/srv/1.0/srv.xsd" using XML Spy, but fails with ETF:
XML document 'teste4sdg.xml': 1:450: cvc-elt.1.a: Cannot find the declaration of element 'gmd:MD_Metadata'.

Any hope of progress on this issue? I just tried with a complaint srv MD doc (least XMLSpy claims its compliant) and am still running into this issue. Alternatively, what's the status on maintaining service metadata within INSPIRE

Dear @dgterritorio,

First of all, thank you for reporting this issue. We are happy to inform you that we have found the solution for the issue.

The schemaLocation of your file doesn't contain the namespace with the definition of gmd:MD_Metadata element. That's why the ETF validator is showing you that message.

To fix the issue, you should have to add "http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd https://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd/metadataApplication.xsd" in the atributte xsi:schemaLocation (see the attached image).

Best regards.

Dear @inakidiazdecerio
thank you for your answer.
After added the other XML schema to the metadata file like you suggest, now I get this error in XML Spy:

File C:\Users\hean_admin\Downloads\teste4sdg\teste4sdg.xml could not be validated because of an error in XML Schema/DTD (see below)
	File http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/gmd/metadataApplication.xsd is not valid.
		'gmd:DS_StereoMate' is already declared in schema document 'https://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd/metadataApplication.xsd'.
			Error location: xs:schema / xs:element
			Details
				sch-props-correct.2: 'gmd:DS_StereoMate' is already declared in schema document 'https://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd/metadataApplication.xsd'.

Probably in srv schema there are already defined some of the gmd elements, specially the identification metadata elements.

Best regards,
