XML parse error: incorrectly formed location

I just went to http://ashladan.be/sitemap.xml and it looked just fine. There were no NULL strings or anything out of the usual.

The content I can see is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9

I've just upgraded my site to b6. It's so nice to see that the module is back up again in force.

As for demon site, I did look at your generated sitemap and it's working perfectly.

A browser may report an error, however, it does not mean that the sitemap have errors, it just mean that your browser does not know what to do with the file.

Try Firefox, it should let you see the XML tree.

So I suspect this is a browser issue.

The strange thing is the <url> (and all those NULLs) that appears after the </sitemapindex>, which should be the final tag.
It doesn't seem a browser issue.

Hi,

I am getting below errors on different browsers when navigating to the sitemap file: http://chiprv.org/sitemap.xml. Please let me know what might be the problem. Thanks

Error details on Fire Fox:

Error details for IE:

Looking at http://chiprv.org/sitemap.xml, I don't see the output I would get from XML sitemap.
Are you sure you are not using another module that changes the output of XML sitemap? Differently, I could not explain why the XML output from XML sitemap became the XHTML output I see when I visit the link.

I am removing the issue tags.

Also make sure that the 'xmlsitemap' directory in your site's files directory can be read and written to by your webserver.

Thanks for all your help and information for not posting this issue on multiple threads. I am new to drupal and dont know all this guidelines. I will be posting my request on this thread only.
I have two domains pointing to one site, I am using xmlsitemap version 6.x-1.1 for generating sitemap.xml file. I have enabled this module through this domain: http://chiprv.org, but it is giving me error, check this http://chiprv.org/sitemap.xml, At the same time it is working fine on this domain http://chiprv.dev.triocircle.com/sitemap.xml. Please help me out to resolve this issue. Thanks

As already reported by earnie, a list of installed modules would help. It seems that you are using also Site map, but it is not possible to know what else you have installed.

I also found that a theme is including the jQuery 1.2.6 file, which should not be included as jQuery is already included by Drupal core code.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://chiprv.org/sites/chiprv.org/themes/chip/jquery-1.2.6.min.js">

What is probably happening is the XML is being generated for the domain http://chiprv.dev.triocircle.com. When the path http://chiprv.com loads, it can't find any generated data for the domain http://chiprv.com, so it returns a 404. I bet if you run cron, or manually generate the files using your normal domain, it will pick up the files.

Verify this by letting us know what's in the contents of the sites/chiprv.dev.triocircle.com/files directory, since you're using that same files directory for both sites, which is a configuration that is known to not work with XML sitemap.

No follow-up in the last couple months, so marking as fixed.
