Question

I tried validating my XML file with a XSD file but I get the following error message:

[Error]: cvc-complex-type.2.3: Element \'paragraph\' cannot ha

Answer 1

For me This error happen because of the strange character in the xml When I compared two files with similar data in "BeyondCompare" tool I found unknown character which is not visible. Open faulty file in "Visual Studio Code" it showed me some special characters.

When I copy pasted the string in online tools to find special characters, I found that is a special character  ().

Because of this character, I got above error. It took two weeks to find solution.
