XML Mapping Error

[Kelly Utrup]

Hi everyone.  I am working with another engineer at GE to help him set up an XML translate in Cloverleaf.  We are getting an error, and I’ve attached his description below.  I have also seen the same error before in my own testing with a translate from XML to HL7 – both cases list the “unknown element” error.  Has anyone seen this error before? Any idea what we are doing wrong?

I have set up 2 Cloverleaf processes. Both read a file from disk, map the

file contents from some input format to some output format, then

the result is written back to disk.

I have been able to compile our XML schema into Cloverleaf. As a

test I have done the following:

Case 1:

Source File A —> Apply Mapping A —> Result File A

Source File A is a simple XML file that is based upon a simple

schema I have used for test purposes.

Mapping A maps Source File A from this simple test schema to

to our XML schema. The output from the mapping

is written to Result File A. This seems to work (at least for this simple

case). So, Result File A is a file that is based upon our XML schema.

Now I try the following:

Case 2:

Result File A —> Apply Mapping B (Fails)

Result File A is the result file from Case 1. It is in our standard XML format.

Mapping B is the opposite of Mapping A. It maps the input from our XML schema back to the simple test schema. However,

whenever I try Case 2, I get the following error in the Cloverleaf log

[xlt :xlat:ERR /0:process_03_xlate:03/27/2007 09:13:45] [0.0.6113] Xlate ‘xlt_xml_msg_all_to_xml_msg.xlt’ failed: Input validation errors: Error generated during parsing. – Unknown element ‘message’ – Line 1, Col 175

Note that ‘message’ is the root element of the XML schema.

Thanks in advance for your help.
