Ah: In general, the service seems to work since it works with foaf for example.

The file you've referenced,
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vocol/dwd/master/dwd_weather_ontology.ttl, (but you missed the final 'l'!) and it has a tiny RDF format error (Line 79, dct:modified "2019-02-12" ^^xsd:date ; -> dct:modified "2019-02-12"^^xsd:date ;). With that error fixed, the file parses in LODE2 without any errors.

If you want to test the RDF validity of files like this before putting them into LODE(2), try using https://rdf-translator.appspot.com. I suppose we should improve the RDF error reporting in LODE(2)!

ah thank you, I used for validation rdfcat (apache jena) which did not catch that error. When checking the version of rdfcat, I just saw that the tool is deprecated and they recommend to use riot instead.

But thanks also for you link! I guess I will check both in the future.
