Dear all,

can someone check why INSPIRE Validator returns errors when validating metadata for INSPIRE code lists:

Code list http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/theme cannot be accessed. Code list http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/metadata-codelist/SpatialScope cannot be accessed.

Thank you.

Kind regards, Ana

Dear @Ana-SGA,

thank you for reporting the error.

We will take a look as soon as possible.

Dear @fabiovinci,

It seems as the problem also concerns code list of priority datasets: Code list http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/metadata-codelist/PriorityDataset cannot be accessed.

Best regards, Andreas

We have the same problem over here in Lower Saxony. Validation of metadata records is not possible any more.

You should consider correcting the ETF validator. With our tests, we do not want to find out whether the INSPIRE registry is running or other parts of the European infrastructure. We want to test our metadata. Therefore, it is necessary to make the necessary code lists for the tests available offline and deliver them with the ETF validator.

At the same time, there must be a functionality that allows the administrator of the ETF validator to find out with a click whether there have been changes in the relevant code lists in the meantime (for example once a month).

Dear @AndrMJ, thank you for reporting, the error is due to the temporary unavailability of the .atom version of the codelists. We are working on it.

Dear @GDIAnja, Registry Resources are made available with each Validator release. For instructions on how to use them, please see the section "Setting up a cache of INSPIRE Registry resources", on the Release page.

To monitor changes in the registry, you can follow the helpdesk-registry repository and the related releases.

Dear @GDIAnja, Registry Resources are made available with each Validator release. For instructions on how to use them, please see the section "Setting up a cache of INSPIRE Registry resources", on the Release page.

@fabiovinci Actually these instructions are quite vague. How do I use them with the Docker image provided in the release to keep a cache? Do I need to copy them to a specific folder? Serve them using a web server? Are there specific instructions anywhere to use them?
