The reference to entity "lt" must end with the ';' delimiter.

[Anonymous]

Hi All,
I am getting below error while loading xml file in a table:
Exception in component tFileInputXML_1
org.dom4j.DocumentException: Error on line 51 of document : The reference to entity "lt" must end with the ';' delimiter. Nested exception: The reference to entity "lt" must end with the ';' delimiter.
How to find out this?
Any help?
Thanks
Chin

Search the xml for lt and find the one without the ; or with a space between lt and ; or try loading it into a browser and see where it says the error is.

It seems to be getting confused with this bit or any of the other sequences like it.
<employee sequence="11">
<addressbook>
<name><</name>
</addressbook>
</employee>
<employee sequence="12">
<addressbook>
<name>snm/></name>
</addressbook>
</employee>

I don't have any problem reading this data in 5.0.2.
