Message Text

Error when reading XML document (document contains syntactic errors)

Help Document

Diagnosis

WSDL document contains syntactical errors, because:

• The document is empty
• It is a text and not an XML document
• It is an XML document, but not a WSDL document
• It is an HTML document (for example, an error message)
• The XML preamble is missing ( <?xml version="1.0"?> )
• For an open tag <xyz> the close tag </xyz> is missing
• ...

System Response

Proxy generation terminated.

Procedure

There are different explanations as to why no correct document exists:

• A "Page Not Found" HTML page was returned instead of a document (the URL is probably not correct).
• A connection to the external server could not be established.
• ...

If applicable, check the HTTP destination used or the URL in Internet Explorer.

If the source of the WSDL document is the Enterprise Services Repository:

• A "Page Not Found" HTML page was returned instead of a document (the Enterprise Services Builder address is probably not correct)
• The Enterprise Services Builder server is not running at present
• The object specified for which a document should be read, does not exist in the Enterprise Services Builder
• The Enterprise Services Builder service that processes the document was subject to an internal error
• Check the connection to the Enterprise Services Repository by using the following checklist.
