Error using XML Loader: XML not well-formed

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am facing a problem using the XML loader in xMII 12.0 when trying to load the following XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Users>

<User>

<UserID>IMXOO</UserID>

<CWID>IMXOO</CWID>

<Prename>Michael</Prename>

<Surname>Otto</Surname>

<CreatedOn>2001-12-31T12:00:00</CreatedOn>

<CreatedBy>IMXOO</CreatedBy>

</User>

</Users>

I also tried a most basic XML file which shows the same error:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<ausgabe>

<anzeige>Testausgabe</ausgabe>

</ausgabe>

To my understanding both files are well-formed, however xMII shows the error:

"The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed."

Do I break any rules concerning the markup? IE loads the files without showing any errors.

Best Regards

Michael

Michael,

What is the path you are using in the configure dialog of the XMLLoader action block (with 12.0 http://localhost doesn't work the same as it did in 11.5)? Assuming you have the xml files saved in the WEB section of a project, have you tried dragging the XML file from the catalog tree into a transaction. This drag-n-drop should create an xml loader action block for you.

Regards,

Jeremy

Michael,

Just a note :

Your demo XML is :

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<ausgabe>

<anzeige>Testausgabe<b></ausgabe></b>

</ausgabe>

shouldn't it be

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<ausgabe>

<anzeige>Testausgabe<b></anzeige></b>

</ausgabe>

Can you tell me if this loads in 12.0 ?

Jeremy,

again you gave the key to the solution. When the error occured, I have set up the following path within the xMII workbench:

"Catalog-Tab"

<server>

&nbsp;&nbsp;> Sandbox

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; > XML

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; myFile.xml

When I tried to load the mxFile.xml with the XML Loader, I got the error described above (XML not well-formed). I also cannot drag the file into a transaction in the workbench. I have manually configured the XML Loader with "http://<server:port>/XMII/CM/Sandbox/XML/mxFile".

Now using your hint I have changed to the "Web-Tab":

"Web-Tab"

<server>

&nbsp;&nbsp; > Sandbox

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; > WEB

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; > XML

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; myFile.xml

Then all works fine, when I now drag the file into the transaction. As you described, an XML Loader action is created with configuration "db://Sandbox/WEB/XML/myFile.xml" and the XML is loaded correctly.

Thanks for your help!

Best regards

Michael
