No idea. That XML is not familiar.

All this happened after I have created my own ArchiMate profile, most probably there is smthng wrong with the profile, perhaps I just have to remove the profile of mine..

This error message is shown on the startup, but I just close the msg box and continue working with Sparx EA 11..

The error is the failure to validate an XMI for a model against the DTD. I'm not sure of the circumstances an EA generated XMI file validates against that DTD, but it's not relevant for now. EA shouldn't be reading any XMI on startup.

I suspect that you have an XMI file (eg. For your own ArchiMate profile) in the MDGTechnologies directory (or another directory you've told it to read technologies from)
