MalformedByteSequenceException while trying to pars XML
- by poeschlorn
Hey guy, maybe someone can help:
I have the following .gpx data from wikipedia:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<gpx xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1" creator="byHand" version="1.1"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1 http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd">
<wpt lat="39.921055008" lon="3.054223107">
<ele>12.863281</ele>
<time>2005-05-16T11:49:06Z</time>
<name>Cala Sant Vicenç - Mallorca</name>
<sym>City</sym>
</wpt>
</gpx>
When I call my parsing method, I get a exception (see below) The call looks like this:
Document tmpDoc = getParsedXML(currentGPX);
My method to parse looks like this (standart parsing code, nothing exctiting....):
public static Document getParsedXML(String fileWithPath){
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db;
Document doc = null;
try {
db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
doc = db.parse(new File(fileWithPath));
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SAXException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return doc;
}
This simple code throws following exception:
com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.io.MalformedByteSequenceException: Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence.

I guess the error lies within the format of the first file, but I don't know where exactly.
Can you please give me a hint?
