<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
The snippet you provided below looks fine. Can you attach an example EAD file? </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Given the error about the "indicator" missing, though, it's possible that the file has an empty container tag in the EAD (e.g. <container type='box'></container>). If so, that would likely cause an error since every top container requires a container indicator
(e.g. "1", from your EAD snippet). </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
It also seems like the error is saying that the container element in question has a "class" attribute, which it shouldn't (although that should just be ignored by the importer), but it's impossible to say without seeing the full EAD file. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Unfortunately the import error message won't give you a line number in the EAD file, but if you have specific ID attributes in your file, that can really help to hunt down the errors. For instance, if you added something like id='amitheproblem_1' to the first
container element, id='amitheproblem_2' to the next, etc<span id="��">, then when the ArchivesSpace importer hits the first error, it should return that ID value after the "In:" part of the message.</span></div>
