Is that really how you're trying to read the online XML document? Because I don't see anything that makes a connection to the site. All you're doing is trying to parse the string "http://www.w3schools.com/Xml/note.xml" is if it were XML.
ps, That "Content not allowed in prolog" error message is worse than useless IMO. They might as well say "It didn't work" for all the good does.

Any ideas?

In my experience, "Content is not allowed in prolog" usually means your XML file is stored in the UTF-8 encoding with a BOM. Java's UTF-8 Charset doesn't recognize the UTF-8 BOM; it decodes it and passes it along like any other character, then the XML parser chokes on it.
To get rid of the BOM you can open the XML file in a text editor and (depending on the editor) either (1) save the file as UTF-8 without BOM, or (2) switch to hexadecimal and delete the first three bytes (EF, BB, BF).

Pplsft compIntf adapter: "XML Error: 1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog"

Hi All,
I am using the peoplesoft component interface adapter in IDM 5.5 and IDM 6.0.
I configured the adapter, tested it successfully and enterred the details to create and provision a user to peoplesoft.
But whenever I click on the save button in the end of the creation wizard I get this error:
com.waveset.util.WavesetException: An error occurred adding user 'FX600859' to resource 'PeopleSoft Component Interface'. com.waveset.util.XmlParseException: XML Error: 1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog.I know the prolog is something about the first two lines and BOM and all - but this is like a really fresh install of IDM ( I tried and experienced the same error on both v 5.5 and 6.0) and have checked almost all the files which might be related to the user creation process.......... the error does not say which object has the defective prolog if at all..
I have also enabled trace for a lot of classes (incrementally of course since I failed to get any info from the earlier traces..) Here are the classes/ methods that I have set show trace on:
com.waveset.adapter.ResourceAdapterBase#createAccounts
com.waveset.util.XmlParseException
com.waveset.util.XmlUtil
com.waveset.util.XmlParser
com.waveset.adapter.PeopleSoftCompIntfcAdapter
com.waveset.object.GenericObject
com.waveset.adapter.ResourceAdapterBase
All have a level of 4..... (the most verbose)
here is the trace output:

Hi Anoop / Ilayarajan,
Could you please post the solution for this error. When I provision a user to PeopleSoft, I am getting similar error: com.waveset.util.WavesetException: An error occurred adding user "userID' to resource 'PeopleSoft Component Interface'. com.waveset.util.XmlParseException: XML Error: 1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog.

WavesetException: XML Error: 1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog. error

What gives?
I have turned the exception trace on (why it is not on by default is a surprise) and when I try to create a standard Weekly Audit Report, (Activity this Week) I now get to see this exception.
How on earth can IdM generate a badly formed XML report/document!?
When I try to generate a Weekly Activity report, Idm reports to the screen that the Task is complete and then bombs out with the following exception, showing NullPointerError message on the screen.
What chances are there of trapping where in Idm this fault lies?

It may be that your source includes some XML that is escaped during parsing. Try this (it worked for me)
<x:parse varDom="farben" ><c:out value="$(xmlmenue)" escapeXml="false"/></x:parse>c:out is from java.sun.com/jstl/core

Content is not allowed in Prolog error while configuring File to Mail

Hi Expert,
I have a scenario where I have to pick up a file from FTP using sender File adapter and send this file as an attachment using Receiver Mail adapter.
There are 3 requirements :
1) File name of the attachment in the Mail should be same as the File picked from FTP.
2) The Mail content should be "Please find attached the <Filename> for your reference.
i.e The content has to be dynamic
3) Subject of the Mail should be dynamic e.g : Apple_<Filename>
I am facing the following issues :
1. Since single File is picked up,the file is going as an payload and not as an attachment.As a result when i am doing message mapping,i am getting the error saying "Content is not allowed in prolog" in SXMB_MONI or Runtime workbench.
2. Since we have dynamic requirements, i have to Use "Use Mail Package" option.It implies that i have to use Message Mapping.But if i use Message Mapping,i get the error "Content is not allowed in prolog".
I understand that most of the experts would ask me to write UDF's, but if i use UDF i am getting the "Content is not allowed in prolog" error.
Thanks
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh
Try using PayloadSwapBean:

"Content is not allowed in prolog" could be caused by some encoding issue.

cause of the error:
After some extensive research on the web, it is found that that you are using an UTF-8 encoded file with byte-order mark (BOM). Java doesn't handle BOMs on UTF-8 files properly, making the three header bytes appear as being part of the document. UTF-8 files with BOMs are commonly generated by tools such as Window's Notepad. This is a known bug in Java, but it still needs fixing after almost 8 years...
There are some hexadecimal character at the begining of the file, which is giving error"content not allowed in prolog". No solution is provided for this till now.
Example: suppose your file start with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>. you will see this in a editor. But if you open this file with any hexadecimal editor you will find some junk character in the start of the file.that is causing the problem
solution:
1) convert your file into a string and then read the file from the forst character that in my case the first character will be "<".so the junk character will not be there in the string and then again convert it into a file.
2) some people are able to solve this problem by changing the "utf-8" to "utf-16". remember only in some case. some times this problem also exits in "utf-16" file.
3) some are able to solve this problem by changing the LANG to US.en.
4) If the first three bytes of the file have hexadecimal values EF BB BF then the file contains a BOM.so you can also handle by your own.
5)Download a hexadecimal editor and remove the BOM.
6) In case you are not able to think furthe then please to more research in internet may be you find some other solution to this problem. But These solution are some type of hack not exactly a solution.

"Content is not allowed in prolog" with SOAP Attachment

I'm writing an application using SAAJ that sends a soap message to a servlet which responds with some information, including HTML which the client application will display. The HTML has to go into a SOAP attachment so the tags won't get confused with XML.
I had the whole thing working with plain text sending within a normal node, and I only switched a few lines to make that text an attachment with HTML instead, but now I'm getting the exception "Content is not allowed in prolog" on the Client side when it tries to create the envelope from the SOAPMessage.
Code for building answering SOAPMessage with attachment (Servlet to Client)
     public static SOAPMessage buildXML(Message newMessage){
          SOAPMessage msg = null;
          try {
               MessageFactory msgFactory = MessageFactory.newInstance();
               msg = msgFactory.createMessage();
               // Create an envelope in the message
               SOAPEnvelope envelope = msg.getSOAPPart().getEnvelope();
               msg.setProperty(SOAPMessage.WRITE_XML_DECLARATION, "true");
               msg.setProperty(SOAPMessage.CHARACTER_SET_ENCODING, "UTF-8");
               //Get hold of the the body
               SOAPBody body = envelope.getBody();
               SOAPElement soap_message = body.addChildElement("MESSAGE");
               if (newMessage.message_type != null){
                    SOAPElement soap_message_type = soap_message.addChildElement("MESSAGETYPE");
                    soap_message_type.addTextNode(newMessage.message_type);
               if (newMessage.questionID != 0){
                    SOAPElement soap_questionID = soap_message.addChildElement("QUESTIONID");
                    soap_questionID.addTextNode("" + newMessage.questionID);
               if (newMessage.username != null){
                    SOAPElement soap_username = soap_message.addChildElement("USERNAME");
                    soap_username.addTextNode(newMessage.username);
               if (newMessage.password != null){
                    SOAPElement soap_password = soap_message.addChildElement("PASSWORD");
                    soap_password.addTextNode(newMessage.password);
               if (newMessage.message_text != null){
                    AttachmentPart soap_message_text = msg.createAttachmentPart("<html><body>" + newMessage.message_text + "</body></html>", "text/html");
                    soap_message_text.setContentId("MESSAGETEXT");
                    msg.addAttachmentPart(soap_message_text);
                    //SOAPElement soap_message_text = soap_message.addChildElement("MESSAGETEXT");
                    //soap_message_text.addTextNode(newMessage.message_text);
               if (newMessage.sampleString != null){
                    SOAPElement soap_password = soap_message.addChildElement("SAMPLESTRING");
                    soap_password.addTextNode(newMessage.sampleString);
               SOAPElement tmpEl;
               for (int i=0; i<newMessage.numArrayUsed; i++){
                    tmpEl = soap_message.addChildElement("SAMPLEINT");
                    tmpEl.addTextNode("" + newMessage.sampleInt);
               msg.saveChanges();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          return msg;
You can see in the area where it adds MESSAGETEXT there are two clients commented out which work. The three lines above it are what changed to make it an attachment instead.
Code in Client for recieving reply from Servlet
SOAPMessage reply = connection.call(soap_msg, endpoint);
System.out.println("\nReceived reply from: " + endpoint);
reply.writeTo(System.out);
System.out.println("");
reply_msg = ProcessXML.parse(reply);This is the console output:

try {

     msg.writeTo(response.getOutputStream());

From what I understand, it has nothing to do with your JSP and all to do with the XML it's supposed to parse. It sounds malformed. Check the first tag.

XML loader and UTF-16 - throws Content is not allowed in prolog

Hi,
Our ECC system is updated to unicode system recently. Now the iDoc downloaded from ECC is having a tag <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>.
The XML Loader in the transaction throws an exception "Cannot perform action on XML document Content is not allowed in prolog. Exception: [Content is not allowed in prolog.]". If I change the encoding manually as "utf-8" and executing the transaction, it is working fine.
Please let me know how to solve the issue.
Thanks,
Raman N

Where should I enhance the webservice to make it able to handle zipped XML documents? Shouldn't take the AXIS library take care of this automatically?
This is the web.xml document I use.

"Content not allowed in Prolog" XML error while using RemoteSession API

Hi,
I am trying to create a view by using a RemoteSession object CREATED on the RPC URL of Sun Identity Manager. Here is the code I am trying out.
try
URL url = new URL ("http","localhost",8080,"/idm/servlet/rpcrouter2");
System.out.println (url.toString());
RemoteSession _remoteSession = new RemoteSession
(url,Constants.CONFIGURATOR, new EncryptedData
("configurator"));
System.out.println ("Remote session is "+_remoteSession);
GenericObject view = _remoteSession.createView ("Role",null);
System.out.println ("View is "+view);
catch (MalformedURLException male){
     male.printStackTrace ();
catch (WavesetException wes){
     wes.printStackTrace ();
catch (Exception e){
     e.printStackTrace ();
When this line is called,
GenericObject view = _remoteSession.createView ("Role",null);
The code throws the following exception.
[java] http://localhost:8080/idm/servlet/rpcrouter2

Is this a known issue in the SDK ? If I construct my own XML and populate a GenericObject, _remoteSession.checkinView (view) does not have any problem in checking in the view. The exception is thrown irrespective of the view id I use , i.e. IDMXUser, User, Role etc.
Thanks,
Srinivas

Hi Srini,
Have you solved this problem. If yes then can you help me with the solution?
Thanks!

Org.jdom.input.JDOMParseException: Content is not allowed in Prolog.

I got the above error. I am trying to save my query xml file in my tempdir (under local settings)..done that by using file.createTempFile() method in java. To my surprise, when my xml file is stored in my current dir, it is reading it well and processing the queries in it and generating the output xml file..all is well then. But, when I am saving my query xml file in the tempdir, it is throwing that error. But, if i cut and paste the same file to my current dir, it is working fine!!! Can anyone just help me out regarding this..I am literally going bonkers. Thanks a lot.

I am trying to get the absolute path of the file and passing it to read for my business logic class. is it something to do with the path i m passing ? cuz, other than that, i dont see any difference when the file's there in current dir and worked perfect and now when its there in the tempdir ( by createtempdir).
