Hi everybody.

 

 

I have checked the tutorials on how to write metadata  but am troubled. it seems like FME includes extra xml tags causing ArcCatalog  not to recognize the metadata. I have included the tags in the text below.

 

 

What am I doing wrong? any pointers?

 

 

 

-<fme:xml-tables xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.safe.com/xml/xmltables signs.xsd" >

 

-<fme:NewFeatureType-table>

 

-<fme:NewFeatureType>

 

 <fme:geodb_metadata_string>

 

 

METADATA GOES HERE

 

 

 </fme:NewFeatureType>

 

 </fme:NewFeatureType-table>

 

 </fme:xml-tables>

Hi,

 

 

I have not observed this myself. I have used ArcCatalog to export an empty metadata template into xml, which I then used as boilerplate in FME. Works very well.

 

 

Can you show us the entire XML that you´re posting?

David. Sorry for the late response. I can t post the rest of the xml as its for a confidential client. I think I know what might be causing the problem.  If I understood correctly, you just export the metadata in catalog and use that xml as a document to be modified?

 

 

I appreciate the time and guidance Thanks man
