A reference for common NSO/NCS error messages encountered during YANG and service development, with root causes and fixes.
Should be of type path-arg
In this case make sure your XPATH does not have a hardcoded variable.
yang/new_l2vpn.yang:60: error: bad argument value "/ncs:devices/ncs:device{PE11}/ncs:config/ios:interface/ios:GigabitEthernet{1}/ios:name", should be of type path-arg
error: the leafref refers to non-leaf and non-leaf-list node
yang/new_l2vpn.yang:38: error: the leafref refers to non-leaf and non-leaf-list node 'FastEthernet' in module 'tailf-ned-cisco-ios' at /opt/ncs/packages/neds/cisco-ios/src/ncsc-out/modules/yang/tailf-ned-cisco-ios.yang:34121
In this case make sure your XPATH points to a list , in this case it was ios:name
path "/ncs:devices/ncs:device/ncs:config/ios:interface/ios:GigabitEthernet/ios:name";`
The error occurs if you leave the path untill here , expecting to list GigabitEthernet interfaces :
path "/ncs:devices/ncs:device/ncs:config/ios:interface/ios:GigabitEthernet";
Basically the key is , things like name , negotiation , descripton which is a list .
XPath error: Invalid namespace prefix: ios
yang/circuit.yang:57: error: XPath error: Invalid namespace prefix: ios
make: *** [../load-dir/circuit.fxs] Error 1
Solution :
Import the required module:
import tailf-ned-cisco-ios {
prefix ios;
}
And add the yang path below in Makefile.
## Uncomment and patch the line below if you have a dependency to a NED
## or to other YANG files
# YANGPATH += ../../<ned-name>/src/ncsc-out/modules/yang \
# ../../<pkt-name>/src/yang
YANGPATH += ../../cisco-ios/src/ncsc-out/modules/yang
Aborted: no registration found for callpoint learning_defref/service_create of type=external
This message occurs when the you perform a commit or commit-dry-run . At this stage your YANG is merged with the corresponding XML Definition
admin@ncs(config-link-PE21)# commit dry-run
Aborted: no registration found for callpoint learning_defref/service_create of type=external
admin@ncs(config-link-PE21)# exit
Solution :
Make sure that in the corresponding XML code , the servicepoint name is correct.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config-template xmlns="http://tail-f.com/ns/config/1.0" servicepoint="learning_defref">
info [l2vpn-template.xml:2 Unknown servicepoint: l2vpn]
This message occurs when you have not compile the src folder with the make command.
Since make isnt issued , the XML template cannot find the entrypoint.
reload-result {
package l2vpn
result false
info [l2vpn-template.xml:2 Unknown servicepoint: l2vpn]
}
Solution :
Run the make command in the src folder.

Start with the learning_defref lab. And analyse the error.
You can delete an entire package our from the NSO by deleting the package from the packages dir followed by a packages reload . This needs to be forced for the deletion .
admin@ncs# packages reload
Error: The following namespaces will be deleted by upgrade:
l2vpn: http://com/example/l2vpn
If this is intended, proceed with 'force' parameter.
admin@ncs# packages reload force
>>> System upgrade is starting.
>>> Sessions in configure mode must exit to operational mode.
>>> No configuration changes can be performed until upgrade has completed.
>>> System upgrade has completed successfully.
