Exception ORA-31011: XML parsing failed

PooRvi-OracleNov 16 2016 — edited Nov 16 2016

I am calling a SOAP based webservice using PL/SQL block. The response returned is in the following format :

<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
 
<env:Header/>
<env:Body>
 
<ns0:getDocumentDataResponse xmlns:ns0="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/service/ScheduleReportService">
  
<ns3:getDocumentData  ="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/service/ScheduleReportService">JVBERi0xLjYNCjUgMCB vYmoNCjw8DQovVHlwZSAvWE9iamVjdA0KL1N1YnR5cGUgL0ltYWdlDQov

</ns0:getDocumentDataResponse>
  
</env:Body>
</env:Envelope>

This response is stored in the variable : l_xml_response_text(varchar2) and when I execute the following code: l_xml_response_xmltype := xmltype(l_xml_response_text);

it Is throwing the error:

Exception ORA-31011: XML parsing failed

ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing

LPX-00007: unexpected end-of-file encountered.

On further analysis, I was able to see that DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (l_xml_response_text) is printing only a part of the data and not the entire response. Is it possible that, since it is not able to fetch the whole data and therefore not able to extract the ending tags for the XML and thus giving this error?

If yes, how can we handle this ?

I am working on database version 11g
