Заказы обработка импортированного файла ошибка разбора content is not allowed in prolog

I’ve been beating my head against this absolutely infuriating bug for the last 48 hours, so I thought I’d finally throw in the towel and try asking here before I throw my laptop out the window.

I’m trying to parse the response XML from a call I made to AWS SimpleDB. The response is coming back on the wire just fine; for example, it may look like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<ListDomainsResponse xmlns="http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/">
    <ListDomainsResult>
        <DomainName>Audio</DomainName>
        <DomainName>Course</DomainName>
        <DomainName>DocumentContents</DomainName>
        <DomainName>LectureSet</DomainName>
        <DomainName>MetaData</DomainName>
        <DomainName>Professors</DomainName>
        <DomainName>Tag</DomainName>
    </ListDomainsResult>
    <ResponseMetadata>
        <RequestId>42330b4a-e134-6aec-e62a-5869ac2b4575</RequestId>
        <BoxUsage>0.0000071759</BoxUsage>
    </ResponseMetadata>
</ListDomainsResponse>

I pass in this XML to a parser with

XMLEventReader eventReader = xmlInputFactory.createXMLEventReader(response.getContent());

and call eventReader.nextEvent(); a bunch of times to get the data I want.

Here’s the bizarre part — it works great inside the local server. The response comes in, I parse it, everyone’s happy. The problem is that when I deploy the code to Google App Engine, the outgoing request still works, and the response XML seems 100% identical and correct to me, but the response fails to parse with the following exception:

I have double, triple, quadruple checked this XML for ‘invisible characters’ or non-UTF8 encoded characters, etc. I looked at it byte-by-byte in an array for byte-order-marks or something of that nature. Nothing; it passes every validation test I could throw at it. Even stranger, it happens if I use a Saxon-based parser as well — but ONLY on GAE, it always works fine in my local environment.

It makes it very hard to trace the code for problems when I can only run the debugger on an environment that works perfectly (I haven’t found any good way to remotely debug on GAE). Nevertheless, using the primitive means I have, I’ve tried a million approaches including:

• XML with and without the prolog
• With and without newlines
• With and without the «encoding=» attribute in the prolog
• Both newline styles
• With and without the chunking information present in the HTTP stream

And I’ve tried most of these in multiple combinations where it made sense they would interact — nothing! I’m at my wit’s end. Has anyone seen an issue like this before that can hopefully shed some light on it?

Thanks!
