Operating Systems Solaris An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x1a) Post 302522303 by fpmurphy on Saturday 14th of May 2011 09:16:25 AM

Set your locale to hi_IN.UTF-8 and test your XML document again. You are using the Xerces processsor - which is extremely robust.

There are many Unicode characters that are not allowed in an XML document, according to the XML specification. See sections 2.2 and 4.1 of the 1.0 specification. Typical disallowed characters are control characters (such as 0x1a) , even if you escape them using the Character Reference form, i.e. &#xxxx; I would examine your XML document to see if there is a spurious 0x1a there. (use od -hc, xxd, 1.0 etc.)
