The Validation Report

A file's validation report can be viewed by selecting the file and going to the Validation Report tab. Each error has an indication of whether the message is a warning or an error, followed by a descriptive message. Some errors may have a Details link to display additional details about the error (often a Java stack trace), which can be used when communicating issues with Titania support.

The errors captured in the validation report include:

• The absence of a DTD or XML Schema for XML documents, often because of an invalid or incomplete project-level document type configuration.
• DTD/XML Schema validation errors.
• DITA-specific issues, such as unresolved references.
• Errors converting print-oriented graphics to web-friendly formats.

The validation report for DITA maps will also contain DITA-specific errors for the topics it references, such as invalid key references. The path to the topic reporting a given error is included in the message.
