    It seems to me that something's worng with your schema. I used one of the examples from the w3schools website, and the your code executed with no errors. Here's the sample xsd I used: 
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace="http://www.w3schools.com"
xmlns="http://www.w3schools.com"
elementFormDefault="qualified"><xs:element name="note">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:sequence>
    <xs:element name="to" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="from" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="heading" type="xs:string"/>
    <xs:element name="body" type="xs:string"/>
      </xs:sequence>
    </xs:complexType>
</xs:element></xs:schema>

    Please read Writeup Formatting Tips, especially the section on <code> tags.

    Are you certain your .xsd is valid? Can you post it so we can replicate the issue? There are no bug reports on this issue registered with CPAN.

    I experienced similar errors in two situations: (1) When you have multiple inheritance (your XSD elements are of extended type, where your class needs to have 'SimpleType' as well as your type in @ISA array, but Pastor adds only one). (2) When your XSD does not specify 'type' for any leaf elements (your generated code shows 'class' => undef). Check for these two situations. -Bhaskar
