Start up error: XML-20108: (Fatal Error) Start of root element expected.

564551Dec 14 2007
Hi,
Before I got this error, I manually de-install / install Oracle Spatial and followed metalink Note 179472.1 and 220481.1.
The reason why I did these is when I run some spation function, always got error message like: ORA-06553:PLS-907: cannot load library unit MSDYS.SDO-3GL (referenced by MDSYS.SDO-FILTER)
I checked that Spatial is invalid.

I've struggled with this error for one day. My application is a ADF Faces combine with MapViewer application, and I deployed it to my standalone OC4J (workstation). It works fine.

Unfortunatelly, I can not deploy app to OracleAS(RHEL 4.0 server). so I copied the .ear file to server, and deploy it via IAS console.

There is no error for deployment, but when I run the application. The page no response at all(like blocked). I checked the log files under $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/logs and the error is : <Line1, Column1>:XML-20108: (Fatal Error) Start of root element expected.

The following is my web.xml file:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
