validate with schema cvc-elt.1: Can't find the declaration of element

[sk]

http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/xml/validationxpath/index.html

I am following this sample and trying to learn how to validate xml document
with the schema

I am getting the following error.

"cannot find the declaration of element 'birthdate'"

Instead of J2SE 5.0 I am using JDK 1.4.2 + Apache Xerces-J 2.8.0 in
/lib/endorsed folder.

What could be the problem?

Xerces is long depricated and buggy, use xmllint+ (and xslproc if you
also need to process xslt's)

Check the Apache website, but I really don't believe that's true.
