XML file to Internal table through XSLT - Call Transformation

Question

Hi Friends,
I am trying to work a scenario where i have a simple XML file and i need to convert the data in to an internal table. When i execute the XSLT seperately, it works fine. I get the output, but when it is invoked through a ABAP program, i am getting the error "The called method START_XSLT_DEBUGGER of the calss CL_WB_XSLT_DEBUGGER returned the exception CX_XSLT_FORMAT_ERROR"
I feel my XSLT program is not correct, but i am unable to find out what the issue is. Any help is really apreciated. I have gone through the SDN forum replies. But could not figure out what is wrong with my program
Below given are the details.
My XML File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<List>
  <ITEM>
    <ITEMQUALF>ITEM1</ITEMQUALF>
    <MATERIAL>MAT1</MATERIAL>
  </ITEM>
  <ITEM>
    <ITEMQUALF>ITEM2</ITEMQUALF>
    <MATERIAL>MAT2</MATERIAL>
  </ITEM>
  <ITEM>
    <ITEMQUALF>ITEM3</ITEMQUALF>
    <MATERIAL>MAT3</MATERIAL>
  </ITEM>
</List>
My XSLT program:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" exclude-result-prefixes="asx" version="1.0">
  <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
  <xsl:output encoding="utf-8" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
  <!--xsl:template match="/"-->
  <xsl:template match="List">
    <asx:abap version="1.0">
      <asx:values>
        <T_ACTUAL>
          <xsl:for-each select="*">
            <ITEMQUALF>
              <xsl:value-of select="ITEMQUALF" />
            </ITEMQUALF>
            <MATERIAL>
              <xsl:value-of select="MATERIAL" />
            </MATERIAL>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </T_ACTUAL>
      </asx:values>
    </asx:abap>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
In my ABAP program:
REPORT  z_xslt_abap_2.
TYPES:
  BEGIN OF ty_actual,
    itemqualf   TYPE char50,
    material    TYPE char50,
  END OF ty_actual,
  line_t(4096)  TYPE x,
  table_t       TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF line_t,
  ty_t_actual   TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_actual.
DATA:
  t_actual    TYPE ty_t_actual,
  t_srctab    TYPE table_t,
  v_filename  TYPE string.
DATA: gs_rif_ex     TYPE REF TO cx_root,
      gs_var_text   TYPE string.
v_filename = 'D:\XML\xslt_test.xml'.
* Function call
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
  EXPORTING
    filename = v_filename
    filetype = 'BIN'
  TABLES
    data_tab = t_srctab
  EXCEPTIONS
    OTHERS   = 1.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
* Call Transformation
TRY.
    CALL TRANSFORMATION (`ZXSLT_RAM`)
            SOURCE XML t_srctab
            RESULT     t_actual = t_actual.
  CATCH cx_root INTO gs_rif_ex.
    gs_var_text = gs_rif_ex->get_text( ).
    MESSAGE gs_var_text TYPE 'E'.
ENDTRY .
IF t_actual IS NOT INITIAL.
  WRITE: 'Success'.
ENDIF.
When i run the XSLT program seperately, this is the output that i get:
<asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0">
  <asx:values>
    <T_ACTUAL>
      <ITEMQUALF>ITEM1</ITEMQUALF>
      <MATERIAL>MAT1</MATERIAL>
      <ITEMQUALF>ITEM2</ITEMQUALF>
      <MATERIAL>MAT2</MATERIAL>
      <ITEMQUALF>ITEM3</ITEMQUALF>
      <MATERIAL>MAT3</MATERIAL>
    </T_ACTUAL>
  </asx:values>
</asx:abap>
I have been stuck with this for more than two days. If anyone can help me out with this, it would be really great. Please let me know, where i am going wrong.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ram.
