This error is due to the todo gadget having a message bundle xml file that contains UTF-8 codes, but the server sends a different type of char encoding header, so the encoding gets all mixed up and the xml parser errors out on it.
The HttpUtil is being called to display the error, and that seems to have a duplicate class definition, which is why it displayed that error instead of the actual one. As long as there's no errors in the xml files (like the hello world one Arne linked), it should render perfectly though.
