Exception when using define.xml to run ADaM validation

Pinnacle 21 Support Troubleshooting and Problems

Hi,

The define.xml file contains unexpected content (like spaces) before the XML declaration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

I’ll see if there’s anything we can do to provide a more friendly error message in that case, as that system-generated one is very confusing.

Regards,
Tim

Hi Tim,

Thank you very much for the instruction in the troubleshooting!

After removing the extra space in the declaration row, I can use the define file in the validator now.

Best!

Hi,

When running OpenCDISC Validator 1.3 for ADaM datasets and ADaM define.xml with config-adam-1.0.xml, I got the following message. Is there something wrong with the define file?

Thank you!
