Org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x80) was found in the CDATA section

          Hi,
          I,'m using c.tld tag libraries from Yakarta in order to use c:if functions.
          When I use non-unicode characters in my JSP pages, it crashes:
          java.io.IOException: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: The taglib validator rejected
          the page: "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x80)

An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x19) was found in the CDATA section.

First my declaration in the xml file was:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Then since the error(Exception:java.io.UTFDataFormatException: invalid byte 2 of 2-byte UTF-8 sequence (0x3f)) resulted for "�", I changed it to:
"<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>"
Now for some cases I have an error:
Exception:org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x19) was found in the CDATA section.
What do I do NOW?
What wrong have I been doing in the past?
How could I make sure that no such encoding errors result?
Thanking you in anticipation,
Cheers

Possibly got some invalid non-printing character in there somewhere... possibly as a result of conversion between platforms etc. Or you are parsing a file that was encoded using a totally different character set to the ones you're attempting to read it with. What originally created the XML file you are trying to parse?

An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x0) was found in the prolog of the docu

Hi folks,
I'm using the SAX parser to parse a small xml file. If I use that file in IE, there its parsing correctly and displaying the xml in the tree structure.
But in my Java code its throwing
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x0) was found in the prolog of the document.
The xml parsing code of my program is
XMLReader parser = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader(
"org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
HelpPartHandler hp = new HelpPartHandler();
parser.setContentHandler(hp);
RandomAccessFile raf = new RandomAccessFile("sample.xml","r");
byte Contents[] = new byte[(int)raf.length()];
StringReader sr = new StringReader(new String(Contents));
InputSource is = new InputSource(sr);
parser.parse(is);
The xml file is
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROOT>
<NODE> Java </NODE>
</ROOT>
Please let me know the mistakes what I have done. Looking for the reply.
Thanks in Advance

The message seems clear to me. Your document contains a null character, which is not valid in an XML document. Take it out of the document, and change whatever produced the document to not put it there. (I hope you don't consider Microsoft software to be standards-compliant.)

You made the file? Then fix the program that makes it so that it doesn't put that character into the file. Standard XML processors like those used by JAXP will never create invalid XML, so why not use them?

Error in moni as invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x16) was found

Hello Experts,
I am facing an issue in Production interface is Proxy - -> JDBC data is passing in ECC successfully in PI moni it is showing error
as Runtime Exception when executing application mapping program com/sap/xi/tf/_MaterialPlantFromSAP_to_MaterialPlantToDYNAMINE_; Details: com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException; An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x16) was found in the element content of the document.
when i try to open the payload it is showing data is too long when i click on open screen is getting hang showing as not responding.I have checked in the ECC it is also showing data is too long when i click on open after 1 min payload is opening when i try to copy the payload and paste in Message mapping test tab again screen is getting hanging when i try to test with 20 or 30 records in Mapping it going through.
I have downloaded that XML file from ECC moni it is 8.83 MB .
PI can process this huge file ? please suggest me how to pass data in chunks .And also i am not understanding error is due to Payload has not correct data or Payload is huge.
Please throw some light on the issue any help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Praveen Reddy

Hi Praveen,
you need a HEX editor. Please download one from this link
http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm
Here in the editor search for the HEX value 0X16 and see the corrosponding charcater in payload.
Try getting rid of the character before it reaches Integrtaion engine possibly with java mapping.

Anupam

BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL1 - An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xb) was found

Hi,
We are using BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL1 to get the Purchase Order details. it worked well in the past.
But its failing for a particular PO number.
Error Message:An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xb) was found in the element content of the document.
I understand there might be some special character in the record. But it works well at SAP ECC.
Can someone please suggest some solution or workaround?
Thanks,
Anil

Hi,
I faced the same issue recently, and came accross this sap note : 1559677 : XML renderer creates invalid XML.
Take a few moments to read the contents, but here's the most important part :
If an application program uses the SAP XML renderers to create XML 1.0
documents that must strictly conform to the specifications of W3C, this
application program must ensure that problematic characters are removed
from the data before transferring this data to the SAP XML renderer.
So, you need to clean up the characters by yourself...
Best regards,
Wouter

The error is in your XML input, not in your Java code. Probably the XML doesn't declare its encoding, so the parser assumes that it is encoded in UTF-8. And probably it contains some character (like an accented letter, for example) that is not part of the UTF-8 encoding. So contact the person who created the XML -- which is not well-formed XML, by the way -- and get them to fix it. It's possible that declaring the encoding as ISO8859-1 might work, but it might not. All depends on what the invalid character is.

I tried using several editors and online XML syntax checkers. None of them complained. Also I tried removing the newline character or any spaces in the document. Didn't help either. I read in some of the forums that Xerces could be picky about spaces but even without any spaces, I am getting this exception.
We are using Weblogic 8.1 and the default parsers... Any help is appreciated. - Thanks...

The Java API documentation (the bit about character encodings) mentions "ISO-8859-1" but not "ISO8859-1". Try that instead?

Org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Reference is not allowed in prolog

Hi,
I have been using DocumentBuilder to parse an xml string in our application but now came up with this exception:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Reference is not allowed in prolog
When I looked at the xml data, I found that it does not have a prolog in it. I also found that the data contains end of line character """"
" in it.
This the xml to be parsed: (Qutoted them to view the unicodes in xml)
"<dc:dc xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">
<dc:title xml:lang="en">Test metadata</dc:title>

<dc:format>text/html</dc:format>

<dc:subject>Medicine and Dentistry</dc:subject>
</dc:dc>"
And in the class, I used,
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document document = builder.parse(file);I can not change the xml data to be parsed as the application gets this data from other targets through a web service.
So, can anyone provide any suggestions to solve this issue please?
Thanks,
Shiv.

I have tried various options by
1. factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true);
2. factory.setValidation(false);
But, none of them seems to work.
Could anyone please giv me atleast a gist abt where to look about?
Cheers,
Shiv.

Org.xml.sax.SAXParseException during deploying project in SOA 11G

Hello,
I was migrating a project from SOA 10G to SOA 11G (11.1.1.3). I had to make a few changes in the project such as:
1) Put concrete wsdl's
2) Put "<bpelx:exec import="oracle.soa.common.util.Base64Decoder"/>" in the bpel file
3) Change the database adapters to have "toplink" as the persistence provider as when I migrated the file , it changed it to Eclipse
4) Fill in the port and location in the reference portion of the composite.xml
At the end of all these changes , my project compiled properly , but when I tried to deploy it , I am getting this error:
[09:57:27 AM] Error deploying archive sca_MIA_ModuleInvToGP_rev1.0.jar to partition "default" on server soa_server1 [sv-soafm-dev1.infinera.com:8001]

[09:57:27 AM] Check server log for more details.
I am unable to know where this particular error is coming from , and do not know how to resolve this. Does any one have any idea on what could be the possible reason for this?
Seems to be a problem with some XML file , but I dont know which file to check.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks
