You need "//ns:ActivityHeader" where somewhere above in your stylesheet you have declared the appropriate URI string for the ns prefix.

XPath 1.0 never uses the default namespace.

But if I remove de value of the namespace for the ActivityHeader node,
works.

Yes, this is consistent with the problems experienced.

I hope this helps.
