Hi,
Firstly, I should have mentioned that we're running Cocoon 2.0.4
Now for some more information - and it's really bizarre!
The stylesheet "query-to-options.xsl" contains two comments before the first
element:
one for the copyright, and
one explaining its purpose.
*REMOVING* these comment sections causes the offending exception, and
associated spinning thread, to disappear! Very bizarre! To be sure, the
comments are well formed, and do not contain and wierd or unusual
constructs, other than two comments placed before the root element (but
then again, never experienced any issues doing this upto now).
Any ideas?
You are probably the victim of an XML parser getting more strict with
the XML spec.
Having comments outside the root element of a document is _not_ well
formed, and any XML parser is free to reject that. If you move those
comments INSIDE the root element, you should also lose the exceptions.
The separate issue that needs to be addressed is why is a thread
spinning if there is an error with a document? Cocoon needs to be
able to handle this failure more gracefully and shut down any threads
that were created for processing purposes.
