SYMPTOMS
When you try to validate a instance file against a schema that was generated by Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002 or later, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:

The current definition being parsed is.

The stream offset where the error occured is.

.

BEC2004: Validate Instance failed for schema, file:.

Note The word &quot;occurred&quot; is spelled incorrectly in this error message.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because of a limitation in the flat file parser when the parser runs in complexity mode after the grammar has been generated and factored. The flatfile schema in this case contains two optional positional records that do not contain tags.



RESOLUTION
You may be able to resolve this by changing the parser_optimization to “speed”. If that does not work you must add tags to each of the records.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
