Unable to update sitemap! Exception caught while checking XML staged file (/var/opt/payara5/glassfish/domains/domain1/docroot/sitemap/sitemap.xml.staged ) against XML schema: schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <xsd:schema>.]]
Not sure exactly why the schema doc can't be found or how to get around this error.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 14:34):Hey, Brian. It's been a while. Anything interesting in /var/opt/payara5/glassfish/domains/domain1/docroot/sitemap/sitemap.xml.staged?
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 14:36):https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd seems to be up. Downloadable.
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:36): Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:36):(Hey Phil! :)
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:38):Seems pretty straight-forward.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 14:38):Your file looks fine.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 14:38):Was it possibly a transient error?
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:39):I've done it 3 times. The 3rd time just now gives the same error.
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:41):I'm also able to just grab the schema doc while on the host:
> curl https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:documentation>
XML Schema for Sitemap files.
Last Modifed 2008-03-26

[SNIP]
Can we verify the XML against the XSD? Maybe with a command line tool?
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 14:47):i've installed xmllint. never used it before though...
> xmllint --valid sitemap.xml
sitemap.xml:2: validity error : Validation failed: no DTD found !
www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
ah. got some hints from another post
> xmllint --noout --schema https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9 sitemap.xml
warning: failed to load external entity "https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
Schemas parser error : Failed to locate the main schema resource at 'https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9'.

I get "sitemap.xml.staged validates" when I run this:
xmllint --schema sitemap.xsd sitemap.xml.staged

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 14:54):What if you move sitemap.xml.staged aside? Does that help?
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 15:01):No, that doesn't change anything, unfortunately. I can get it to validate when i download the schema locally, like you've done. but remote just doesn't work.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 15:11):I inserted your sitemap manually into SiteMapUtil.java but it's fine.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 15:11):Not sure what's going on.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 15:11):I'm not sure why you're seeing this: schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <xsd:schema>.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Nov 27 2023 at 15:14):@Brian Cassidy please feel free to create a GitHub issue. I'm out of ideas. :sweat_smile:
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 15:23):No easy way to turn off validation, eh? :)
Brian Cassidy (Nov 27 2023 at 15:29):I've put this in https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/10143 and renamed my sitemap file for now. I'll have to revisit this later. Thanks for your help debugging things, @Philip Durbin
