Error: content model non-deterministic against ..

Hi,

 

I have a schema base1.xsd a snippet of which is as shown below.

 

base1.xsd

---------------

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xs:schema xmlns="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 

xmlns:java="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def/java" 

xmlns:database="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def/database" 

targetNamespace="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def"
elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">

            <xs:import namespace="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def/java"
schemaLocation="def_Java_1.xsd"/>

            <xs:import namespace="http://www.cisco.com/abc/def/database"
schemaLocation="def_DB_3.xsd"/>

 

..............................

<xs:complexType name="referenceType">

                        <xs:sequence>

                                    <xs:any namespace=" ##other"
processContents=" lax" minOccurs="0"/>

                                    <xs:element name="description"
type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>

                                    <xs:element ref="assert"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

                                    <xs:element ref="database:Set"
minOccurs="1" />

                        </xs:sequence>

 ...............

</xs:complexType>

 

I have another schema def_DB_3.xsd a database schema which I am
importing into base1.xsd

In the database schema that is in def_DB_3.xsd, I have below

 

            <database:complexType name="CollectionType" abstract="true"
>

                        <database:complexContent>

                                    <database:restriction
base="database:anyType">

                                                <database:attribute
name="KeyColumn" type="database:string" use="required"/>

                                                <database:attribute
name="OneToManyClassName" type="database:string" use="required"/>

                                    </database:restriction>

                        </database:complexContent>

            </database:complexType>

            <database:element name="Set">

                        <database:complexType >

                                    <database:complexContent>

                                                <database:extension
base="CollectionType"/>

                                    </database:complexContent>

                        </database:complexType>

            </database:element>

 

Now when I try to validate base1.xsd Iam getting below error

 

<xs:any namespace=" ##other" processContents=" lax" minOccurs="0"/>
makes the content model non-deterministic against

<xs:element ref=Set> Possible causes : name equality etc etc

 

Can any one please let me know how to solve this problem. ?

What are the various options in solving the problem ?

If I comment out <xs:any namespace=" ##other" processContents=" lax"
minOccurs="0"/>,

then validation of base1.xsd is successful.Otherwise it fails.

 

Thanks and regards
