I am trying to fetch the below xml from db using a java method but I am getting an error
Code used to parse the xml
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
InputSource is = new InputSource(new ByteArrayInputStream(cond.getBytes()));
Document doc = db.parse(is);
Element elem = doc.getDocumentElement();
// here we expect a series of <data><name>N</name><value>V</value></data>
NodeList nodes = elem.getElementsByTagName("data");
TableID jobId = new TableID(_processInstanceId);
Job myJob = Job.queryByID(_clientContext, jobId, true);
if (nodes.getLength() == 0) {
log(Level.DEBUG, "No data found on condition XML");
}
for (int i = 0; i < nodes.getLength(); i++) {
// loop through the <data> in the XML
Element dataTags = (Element) nodes.item(i);
String name = getChildTagValue(dataTags, "name");
String value = getChildTagValue(dataTags, "value");
log(Level.INFO, "UserData/Value=" + name + "/" + value);
myJob.setBulkUserData(name, value);
}
myJob.save();

The ERROR
org.apache.xerces.impl.io.MalformedByteSequenceException: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.
I read in some threads it's because of some special characters in the xml. How to fix this issue ?
This question is related to
java
xml
xml-parsing
Try:
InputStream inputStream= // Your InputStream from your database.
Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(inputStream,"UTF-8");
InputSource is = new InputSource(reader);
is.setEncoding("UTF-8");
saxParser.parse(is, handler);
If it's anything else than UTF-8, just change the encoding part for the good one.
I had the same issue. My problem was it was missing “-Dfile.encoding=UTF8” argument under the JAVA_OPTION in statWeblogic.cmd file in WebLogic server.
You have a library that needs to be erased Like the following library
implementation 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.4.3'
Those like me who understand character encoding principles, also read Joel's article which is funny as it contains wrong characters anyway and still can't figure out what the heck (spoiler alert, I'm Mac user) then your solution can be as simple as removing your local repo and clone it again.
My code base did not change since the last time it was running OK so it made no sense to have UTF errors given the fact that our build system never complained about it....till I remembered that I accidentally unplugged my computer few days ago with IntelliJ Idea and the whole thing running (Java/Tomcat/Hibernate)
My Mac did a brilliant job as pretending nothing happened and I carried on business as usual but the underlying file system was left corrupted somehow. Wasted the whole day trying to figure this one out. I hope it helps somebody.
I have met the same problem and after long investigation of my XML file I found the problem: there was few unescaped characters like «
»
.
I had this problem, but the file was in UTF-8, it was just that somehow on character had come in that was not encoded in UTF-8. To solve the problem I did what is stated in this thread, i.e. I validated the file: How to check whether a file is valid UTF-8?
Basically you run the command:
$ iconv -f UTF-8 your_file -o /dev/null
And if there is something that is not encoded in UTF-8 it will give you the line and row numbers so that you can find it.
This error comes when you are trying to load jasper report file with the extension .jasper
For Example
c://reports//EmployeeReport.jasper"
While you should load jasper report file with the extension .jrxml
For Example
c://reports//EmployeeReport.jrxml"

I had a similar problem. I had saved some xml in a file and when reading it into a DOM document, it failed due to special character. Then I used the following code to fix it:
String enco = new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(listPayloadPath+"/Payload.xml")), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
Document doc = builder.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(enco.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));
Let me know if it works for you.
I happened to run into this problem because of an Ant build.
That Ant build took files and applied filterchain expandproperties
to it. During this file filtering, my Windows machine's implicit default non-UTF-8 character encoding was used to generate the filtered files - therefore characters outside of its character set could not be mapped correctly.
One solution was to provide Ant with an explicit environment variable for UTF-8.
In Cygwin, before launching Ant: export ANT_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"
.
I was getting the xml as a String and using xml.getBytes() and getting this error. Changing to xml.getBytes(Charset.forName("UTF-8")) worked for me.
I had the same problem in my JSF application which was having a comment line containing some special characters in the XMHTL page. When I compared the previous version in my eclipse it had a comment,
//Some ? ? special characters found
Removed those characters and the page loaded fine. Mostly it is related to XML files, so please compare it with the working version.
