Description tab displays error "The item's XML contains errors."

Question

Hi All,

Good day!

In ArcCatalog, in description tab of the table it displays "The item's XML contains errors." . In Customize -> ArcCacatalog Option - > Metadata I have changed the Metadata Style to "FGDC CSDGM Metadata" but same error displays (see attached image for the error). Our ArcGIS Desktop is fresh installed.

* Version: ArcGIS desktop 10.1.3
* Database Connection to: SAP HANA SPS 10

Is there are post steps I missed or need to do some configurations in ArcGIS? Asking for advise or resolutions on this.

Thank you so much in advance!

Regards,

AICS Basis Team

I know this is an old post, but I ran into this with some spatial views. The same error popped up in ArcCatalog only for those items that weren't registered to the database. Once I registered them, the metadata/.xml was created. Maybe this post will help someone along the way....

Hi Jayanta,

Yes, we have a field "ObjectID" in our table and we can view it. Our ArcGIS is connected in SAP HANA DB and the tables are created in HANA studio. Let us know if there are additional details you need.

Thank you,

When you preview the table, are you able to view the field "ObjectID"?
