Defect Status

Issue VYG-7133 is resolved in Voyager 10.1.0

Replication Steps

1. Find a patron record with a blank patron note (or add a patron note with no content in note).
2. Run an XML patron export that will capture that patron record.
3. Note the XML for the patron note:

<patronNote>
<note xsi:nil="true"/>
<type>General</type>
</patronNote>

4. Using the same file, run XML patron import to add the records back into the database.
5. Resulting error:

ERROR: 'org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 2; columnNumber: 60; cvc-elt.3.1: Attribute 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance,nil' must not appear on element 'note', because the {nillable} property of 'note' is false.'
