Gabor Liptak commented on HADOOP-12118:
---------------------------------------

[~sekikn] Attached hadoop-configuration.xsd validates (most of) configuration 
xml-s in current tree:

$ xmllint --schema hadoop-configuration.xsd *.xml

The one thing unclear if <value/> is required ...

> Validate xml configuration files with XML Schema

> I spent an embarrassingly long time today trying to figure out why the 
> following wouldn't work.
> {code}
> <property>
>   <key>fs.defaultFS</key>
>   <value>hdfs://localhost:9000</value>
> </property>
> {code}
> I just kept getting an error about no authority for {{fs.defaultFS}}, with a 
> value of {{file:///}}, which made no sense... because I knew it was there.
> The problem was that the {{core-site.xml}} was parsed entirely without any 
> validation. This seems incorrect. The very least that could be done is a 
> simple XML Schema validation against an XSD, before parsing. That way, users 
> will get immediate failures on common typos and other problems in the xml 
> configuration files.
