Failed to update the interface: [ Invalid QName value: Can't resolve prefix 'xs]

Hi, I get this error when trying to update the API definition in the existing project (we use Swagger): 

Failed to update the interface: [ org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlValueOutOfRangeException: Invalid QName value: Can't resolve prefix 'xs' ]

 

Full error log:

  • srixon I figured out how to fix it. Not sure why but some of my API XML files started to contain this line

    "<con:type>xs:string</con:type>". I don't have it in the original definition. I successfully executed the update definition after removing "xs:" from ALL API calls

    Hi aihnatsiuk,

    I have never seen a swagger/OAS define xml before, it's always been json, but the error youre getting seems pretty clear.

    This isn't a ReadyAPI! issue.

    It looks like you have an element or attribute definition in your swagger that is using an unknown namespace prefix of xs.

    If you do a string search for 'xs:', interpreting the error response, it would appear you have an attribute or element with a namespace identifier that isnt recognised and remove the erroneous 'xs:' or change 'xs:' to the correct namespace identifier (depending on what you have defined)

    Cheers,

    Rich

      Hi richie

       

      I encountered a similar error while attempting to update from a .yaml file.

       

      Wed Jan 18 15:46:31 EST 2023: ERROR: org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlValueOutOfRangeException: Invalid QName value: Can't resolve prefix 'xs'
      org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlValueOutOfRangeException: Invalid QName value: Can't resolve prefix 'xs'

       

      I searched the file for any instance of 'xs' and nothing turned up.

       

      I'm not sure if anyone else solved this issue.  I'll keep digging in the meantime.

        Is there any update here? I dont find such strings in the swagger.json file nor in my API .xml files. But i still get the error, where to look for it?
