Fatal Error:  Problem parsing signature --D

I get "Fatal Error: Problem parsing signature --D" followed by the name of the class that I'm attempting to initialize. This occurs when I run the program, however I don't get this when I am debugging. Does anyone know what this means and how I can fix it?
Thanks,
Tyler

I figured it out. My problem was that there was some kind of error happening in my code. I believe is was a couple of null pointer exceoptions or something along those lines. Once I debugged the hell out of my code, I was able to run the app completely without the error. I'm sure the same thing is happening with you as well.

  • Dreamweaver CS5 Fatal Error XML Parsing

    Can anyone help me with CS5 dreamweaver - It has a fatal error on windows 7 - it states XML Parsing fatal error an exception occurred, Type: unexpected of exception message: the end of input was not expected, line 22 file: c\users\danny\appdata\roaming\adobe\dreamweaver cs5\en_us\configuration\workspace\designer.xml.
    I cannot use dreamweaver at all - PLEASE HELP ME. Thanks

    The xml file which defines the Workspace layout has become corrupt.
    Navigate to the file via the path listed in your post, delete it and relaunch Dreamweaver.

    If Dreamweaver still won't launch. delete the entire Configuration folder. Dreamweaver should then create a fresh Configuration folder the next time you launch it.

  • Dreamweaver CS5 fatal error XML parsing: Invalid document structure, line:1, File: C:\User\Tyler\App

    XML parsing fatal error: Invalid document structure, line: 1, file: C:\User\Tyler\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configureation\Workspace\Classic.xml
    I have gone through older disscussion forums and have followed the steps recommended by deleting the corrupted .xml file itself (in this case "Classic.xml") but imidiatly after when i try to open Dreamweaver again, i am prompted with the same fatal error message including the file that i have just deleted. Next i deleted the entire configure file and this did not help either.
    It is also odd that when i follow the path to find the corrupted .xml file from the prompt, the path is different in that i do not find the "Classic.xml" file through th "en_US\Configuration\Weorkspace" navigation, however i do find the corrupt "Classic.xml" file in the "configure" folder of the "Adobe Dreamweaver CS5" file.
    Im not sure what to do now and i would really like Dreamweaver back up and running so please help if you can!!!
    Thanks
    -Tyler

    Step 1: Close DW, Navigate to C:\User\Tyler\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configureation\Workspace\ and delete that Classic.xml file
    Re-open DW. DW should auto-create your Workspace layout XML file again. See if it works fine.
    PROCEED TO STEP 2 ONLY IF STEP 1 DOESN'T SOLVE THE ISSUE
    Step 2: Navigate to C:\Users\Tyler\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en-US\Configuration and delete the entire 'CONFIGURATION' folder. Re-open DW. DW should auto-create your configuration folder based on predefined layouts and config options. This will definitely fix your issue.
    Reason for this issue: This issue would have been caused due to a malformed workspace layout configuration. That may happen due to customizations you may have done to the layout/ improper file permissions/ improper shutdown on Windows.
    See if these fixes resolve your issue and post your results here.

    Is the icon really an alias? Aliases have a hard-to-see arrow in the lower left corner. If you click once on the icon and do a Get Info, you'll be told if it's an alias, and if so, where the original is, or once was if the original is gone.

    Here's the XML that raises the Fatal error. The following
    information is generated by the parser:
    Fatal Error of Java SAX parser v2.0.2.5:
    XML-0121: (Fatal Error) End tag does not match start
    tag 'WOONPLAATS'. at line 517, column 4151 of XML document.
    I attached the output of the SAXSample class, so you can trace
    the line and column where the error occurs. Also attached is the
    XML file (4Mb).
    An other error that occurs with this XML is the following
    situation:
    <VOLGNR_FILM> 001</VOLGNR_FILM>
    this piece of XML is parsed with the following events:
    StartElement:VOLGNR_FILM
    Characters:NR_
    Characters:001
    EndElement:VOLGNR_FILM
    So the spaces are replace with a part of the start tag! This is
    also only with large files. I tested this piece of XML in a
    seperate file. Then it was parsed correctly.
    Kind regards,
    Erik.

    Dear XML team,
    I am using the SAX parser version 2.0.2.4. When parsing a valid
    XML of approx. 3,5 Megabytes i get a fatal error XML-0121
    saying 'End tag does not match start tag
    <CORRESPONDENTIENAAM1>...'
    We checked the xml on the well formedness with tools like XML
    Spy and IE5. The XML is valid!
    We did some testing on the XML with the SAXSample class and we
    noticed that the error is related to the use of Entity
    References. When we removed the Entity Reference &apos; the XML
    was parsed correctly.
    We also noticed that if we cut the XML in two smaller parts it
    was also parsed correctly.
    I attached the output of the parser, as well as the output of
    the SAXSample class.
    I hope you can fix this problem!
    With kind regards,

    @Bhaskar (and @user11922800): You have to update the db10g/xdk to a version at least of 10.1.0.4. There were major bug fixes including XML-32009 error (bug number 3375952).
    http://www.eygle.com/case/bug10104.htm
    I've even tried the op's listing with my more to-date xdk without encountering any problem and it is compiled just fine.
    ps: I am sure that was the hasty typo in dvohra16 post. The namespace in the op (/2001/) is correct. Encoding is still capable of resulting in some problems (I've had encounted if I recall), but that is not the problem for the issue raised in this thread.

    try saving your fla and the published files to a new directory and see if the error resolves.

    The fatal error you got with the B110a is caused by an .msi error. The document below should walk you through that.

    The fatal error you got with the B109a might have a different fix. It would depend on the exact error code you received. The document below should help you find the error code and work through the fatal error.

  • "problem with shortcut/fatal error during installation" on other user accts

    I-tunes installed and works with no problem in original user, but when another user account attempts to open Itunes, program attempts to install/configure again, then results in a "problem with shortcut / fatal error during installation" message. Setting the other users to administrators doesn't help, nor does un-installing/re-installing, etc. I am at least the 4th person with this problem (see Burthomp earlier today,Jan. 17 and Richard 1018 on Dec. 29). This problem started with Itunes 7.5, and is still a problem on Itunes 7.6. I have a standard Dell setup, Model E510. There must be a lot of people with this problem. Apple, are you working on this? Anyone else have a suggestion?

    I ran into the same problem, but I think I have the solution. First, the problem isn't with iTunes, its an access problem with Windows XP. I tried to run the iTunes program from the Program Files, and I received an "Access Denied" error.
    If you try to open the Program Files in My Computer\Local Disk(C:) and receive an "Access Denied" Error, that is why you are receiving a "shortcut problem/Fatal Error during installation".
    Here is how I corrected it:
    1) Shut down the computer and restart it in "safe mode". I had to look up how to do this, but I pressed F8 when it was restarting and I highlighted the "safe mode" and started the machine. The icons will be large, but ignore it.
    2) Open a user that has administrative access -- I used the one user that has access to itunes.
    3) Go to My Computer\Local Disk (C:) and right click on the "Program Files" folder. Select "properties" at the bottom.
    4) Go to the Security Tab
    5) At the top you should see one or two users that have access to the Programs File. One will be the user that itunes works on. Click Add, then click Advanced, then click Find Now.
    6) At the bottom should appear a list of users. Select a user on which itunes doesn't work. Click Ok, then click OK again.
    7) Give that user full access to the Program File by putting a check mark in the Full Access box.
    8) Repeat for the remaining users.
    9) Restart computer in normal mode.
    10) Go into a user that had problems and click the itunes icon, and it should run.
    It worked for me, I hope it works for you.
