If I recall correctly, I was getting errors also until I added these files in.

I found the files schemas.xml, OrgOdtContentTemplate.xml, and OrgOdtStyles.xml
in the git repository for Org mode, in the etc/schema and
etc/styles directories.

I then copied the etc/schema/schemas.xmls and etc/styles/OrgOdt*.xml files to my
/usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles directory, and the errors went away.

That must be where org-odt-schema-dir defaults to, as I don't have it set
anywhere.

Good luck!

Dave
