Ha! Ethan beat me to it but here's mine anyway :)
You're closing the c01 too soon. c02's have to be fully enclosed in c01's and the same rule applies all the way down -- c03s must be fully enclosed in their parent c02, etc. Your basic structure (a bunch of stuff removed to simplify) should look like this:
<c01 level="series">Campus Expansion
<c02 level="subseries">Rutledge Hall
<c03 level="file">Anderson Electric Co.
<c03 level="file">[other files]
</c02>
<c02 level="subseries">Some other hall
<c03 level="file">[another file]
<c03 level="file">[another file]
</c02>
</c01>

Sounds like you're missing some required element in the c02. Could you post your c02 section? Alternatively, we've got several hundred EAD examples online here http://scrc.syr.edu/ead/xml which you're welcome to look at for examples.

I'm using NoteTabPro for EAD and it's been about 7 years since I had EAD
experience. I'm trying to set up a finding aid to indicate C01 as series,
c02 as subseries, c03 as a file. Right now my one finding aid on-line has
only c01 series and c01 file with box and folder. The collection I have now
is rather large and will have subseries. What must I do to get xml to parse
correctly? I keep getting an error for C02 Element content is invalid
according to the DTD/Schema.
Expecting: head, abstract, container, dao, daogrp, langmaterial,
materialspec, note, origination, physdesc, physloc, repository, unitda...
which refers back to <dsc>.
I searched the listserv archives but did not find coding help. I'm pretty
much alone without any IT help. I only know html.
