I have updated this post with more better, and hopefully easier to understand code. I am still receiving the same error message above.

CodePudding user response:

Your XML is not well-formed because it has multiple root elements. An XML document may only have a single root element.

Your options to repair this problem:

  1. Remove all Team elements after the first one, or
  2. Wrap all Team elements in a single root element such as Teams.

Option #1 would be sufficient alone; option #2 would require the addition of the Teams wrapper element to your XSD.

CodePudding user response:

Your schema says that a Teams element contains a sequence of Player elements. But in your XML instance, the Teams element contains a sequence of Team elements. So it's expecting to find a Player element, but it finds a Team element, which is why it complains saying

Invalid content was found starting with element 'Team'. One of '{"":Player}' is expected.

Note that the notation {"":Player} means a Player element in no namespace. The reason it explains it this way is that this error is often caused by use of an incorrect namespace (but not in your case).
