There is no error I can spot in the fragment you posted.
Note that if an error is reported with a location on the first line of 
the schema that does not necessarily mean that the error is really on 
that line, it may be an error that does not have a specific location or 
it may be that the validation engine is not able to provide a 
better/specific location for that error.

I do not know XML Spy but other tools like oXygen and Stylus offer 
support for validation against multiple engines. If multiple engines 
report the same error on the schema then there are good chances they are 
correct and you have a problem with the schema - also they usually 
provide a slightly different description of the error so as you get 
multiple ways of saying the same thing it is easier to understand the 
actual problem.

Best Regards,
George

I used "XML-Spy" to validate the schema and everytime it throws an error in the first line of code. I really don't see any error there. Maybe somone of you knows it. Therefore I posted the first lines of code above. Is there maybe a difference in the specification of schema that different validators use?
