XSD element namespace validation failure

Question

I am working in Java application where I need to show XML output as result of one GET REST URL execution.

I am getting error as:

cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element '{"http://www.example.org/xmlns/sapsaasconnection/SAPAriba/CATALOGCONTENT+facets_GET_Responses+286d4d67-dbb4-4187-ac9e-a9dd069c3035":Output}'. One of '{Output}' is expected.

My XSD is:

<schema targetNamespace="http://www.example.org/xmlns/sapsaasconnection/SAPAriba/CATALOGCONTENT+facets_GET_Responses+286d4d67-dbb4-4187-ac9e-a9dd069c3035"
        xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
        xmlns:tns="http://www.example.org/xmlns/sapsaasconnection/SAPAriba/CATALOGCONTENT+facets_GET_Responses+286d4d67-dbb4-4187-ac9e-a9dd069c3035"
        >
  <complexType name="facets_GET_Responses">
    <sequence>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="Output" type="tns:FacetResponse"/>
    </sequence>
  </complexType>
  <element name="facets_GET_Responses" type="tns:facets_GET_Responses"/>
  <complexType name="MapStringToObject">
    <all>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="count" type="integer"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0"
               name="ClassificationCode" type="string"/>
    </all>
  </complexType>
  <element name="MapStringToObject" type="tns:MapStringToObject"/>
  <complexType name="FacetResponse">
    <all>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="contents" type="tns:contents"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="offset" type="integer"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="limit" type="integer"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0"
               name="totalElements" type="integer"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0"
               name="totalPages" type="integer"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0"
               name="firstPage" type="boolean"/>
      <element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="lastPage" type="boolean"/>
    </all>
  </complexType>
  <element name="FacetResponse" type="tns:FacetResponse"/>
  <complexType name="contents">
    <sequence>
      <element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0"
               name="items" type="tns:MapStringToObject"/>
    </sequence>
  </complexType>
</schema>

My XML output is:

<ns0:facets_GET_Responses xmlns:ns0="http://www.example.org/xmlns/sapsaasconnection/SAPAriba/CATALOGCONTENT+facets_GET_Responses+286d4d67-dbb4-4187-ac9e-a9dd069c3035">
    <ns0:Output>
        <ns0:contents>
            <ns0:items>
                <ns0:count>42</ns0:count>
                <ns0:ClassificationCode>UNSPSC:1000030</ns0:ClassificationCode>
            </ns0:items>
        </ns0:contents>
        <ns0:limit>25</ns0:limit>
        <ns0:offset>0</ns0:offset>
        <ns0:totalElements>25</ns0:totalElements>
        <ns0:totalPages>1</ns0:totalPages>
        <ns0:firstPage>true</ns0:firstPage>
        <ns0:lastPage>true</ns0:lastPage>
    </ns0:Output>
</ns0:facets_GET_Responses>

I tried to analyze it in my way but didn't find what's wrong here. Can anybody help here as what is expected in XSD schema?

If you wish to change your XSD, add elementFormDefault="unqualified" to the schema element.

If you wish to change your XML, remove the ns0 namespace prefix from all element tags except ns0:facets_GET_Responses.

See What does elementFormDefault do in XSD? for detailed explanations regarding elementFormDefault.
