What's wrong with my XSD schema?

Here is the schema:

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xs:complexType name="entry">
    <xs:attribute name="key" type="xs:string" use="required"/>
  </xs:complexType>
  <xs:element name="p">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:sequence>
        <xs:element name="entry" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
      </xs:sequence>
    </xs:complexType>
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

This XML should fail validation against this schema, because key attribute is missed:

<p><entry/></p>

But it doesn't fail. What am I doing wrong?

The name attribute in the entry element defintion does not link to a type definition.

You just have to add a reference to the type in your entry element definition (to effectively type it) :

<xs:element type="entry" name="entry" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
