cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'data'

These are my simple XSD and XML files, I keep getting cvc-elt.1 for the "data" node.

Here is the XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<data xmlns="http://www.w3schools.com" 
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
      xsi:schemaLocation="https://www.w3schools.com/xml {FULL_PATH}/car_designer.xsd">
    <car_designer id="1" designer_name="A C Bertelli"/>
    <car_designer id="2" designer_name="Adam Ty Dean Smith"/>
</data>

Here is the XSD

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
           targetNamespace="https://www.w3schools.com"
           xmlns="https://www.w3schools.com"
           elementFormDefault="qualified">
    <xs:element name="data">
        <xs:complexType>
            <xs:sequence>
                <xs:element name="car_designer" maxOccurs="unbounded">
                    <xs:complexType>
                        <xs:attribute name="id" type="xs:int"></xs:attribute>
                        <xs:attribute name="designer_name" type="xs:string"></xs:attribute>
                    </xs:complexType>
                </xs:element>
            </xs:sequence>
        </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

i just notice that at times, it is just the IDE used that shows this errors even when everything is ok.

What i did in my case was to go into a file where declaration is ok, copy the header and replaced the one with the error, now it's all ok.

The problem is that the default namespace in the XML file is http://www.w3schools.com, but the targetNamespace in the schema is https://www.w3schools.com.

Notice the difference between http and https in the uri. If you change the namespace in the XML to https (xmlns="https://www.w3schools.com"), it should work.
