Use, e.g., BDI.SDD_-Test-Simple.xml - BDI.SDD_.xsd will not work. * When validation was ok, the command line will say "Validation was successful!!" -- Note that looking into the errors.log file is confusing because that one will accumulate the messages, thus is will still say: validation failed (i.e. from the previous run). %META:FILEATTACHMENT{name="validator.zip" attachment="validator.zip" attr="" comment="XML validator" date="1147398588" path="validator.zip" size="1808733" stream="validator.zip" user="Main.JacobAsiedu" version="1"}%
