I have my XML properly download from my webserver with a URL pointing to the server's file, however, when I detect the network is 'unreachable' I simply point the URL to my application's local XML and I get the following error (N.B. the file is a direct copy of the one on the server). I cannot find detail description, but I think it is saying that the URL is pointing to an inaccessible location. Am I storing this resource in the wrong location? I think I want it in the HomeDirectory / Library??

It worked very http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5486116/xml-parsing-nsxmlparsererrordomain-error-5 well - until today... Here's how I start to parse the XML: NSString *link = [[NSString alloc] init]; link = @"link_to_xml_file"; NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:link] cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReturnCacheDataElseLoad timeoutInterval:30.0]; connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self]; And here's how I'm using the received data: - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)theConnection didReceiveData:(NSData *)incrementalData { if (data == nil) data = [[NSMutableData alloc] init]; [data appendData:incrementalData]; NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; NSString *filePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.plist",actual]]; NSError *parseError = nil; NSDictionary *xmlDictionary = [XMLReader dictionaryForXMLString:[[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] error:&parseError]; if (parseError != nil) { UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:[parseError localizedDescription] delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Zurück" otherButtonTitles:nil]; [alert show]; [alert release]; } //shows an alertview with NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 5 NSLog(@"String: %@",[[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]); //returns null NSLog(@"Dictionary: %@",xmlDictionary); //returns null NSMutableDictionary *tempDictForAddDate = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithDictionary:xmlDictionary]; NSDateFormatter *originalDate = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [originalDate setDateFormat:@"dd.MM.yyyy"]; NSString *today = [originalDa
error messages jb6262 Moderator Aug 31, 2009, 8:01 PM I've been doing some work recently working to make the WP iPhone app a bit more user-friendly when it comes https://ios.forums.wordpress.org/topic/understanding-nsxmlparsererrordomain-error-messages to error messages and adding a blog for the first time. This has resulted in several fixes are available in the 2.0 version. One will give you the ability to enter http://iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-development/100767-nsxmlparser-error-when-parsing-html-snippet.html your xmlrpc endpoint manually if it can't be found by the app. Another catches HTML errors and presents them for a clearer understanding of what's going on. However, it will always nsxmlparser error be possible to get NSXMLParserErrorDomain errors (especially from a self-hosted blog) because they refer to errors in the parsing of the XML returned from the blog. Themes or custom php code that results in malformed XML are the common causes. Even if the iPhone application is going to ignore the specific "component" the parsing can break if XML is malformed. In nsxmlparser error 5 the 1.3 version, these errors can occur because the server HTML error message was processed by the XML Parser. This is fixed in 2.0. Once you're using WP for iPhone 2.0 or later, the error should be a hint about the way in which XML is malformed. A good test is to remove custom code or turn off themes and then try to connect again. In order to understand these errors, I've provided a link for you techies to the Apple web page which documents them. For those of you who just want to know the meaning of the message, please look for the number in the list below and read the associated (terse) description further down the page. This list is a copy from the Apple page, and therefore is subject to any changes made by Apple since it was posted. Here is the link .

NSXMLParser error when parsing HTML snippet architectpianist Posts: 130Registered Users March 2012 edited March 2012 in iOS SDK Development Hi, I'm using NSXMLParser to parse an HTML snippet from a 3rd party website. The HTML is basically divs and spans - here's the format of the snippets I'm trying to parse: [HTML]

Starline Tryout
[/HTML] I'm trying to get out the title of each event and its date. The problem is, it parses the first 3 lines successfully, then stops with the following error: Error Domain=NSXMLParserErrorDomain Code=5 "The operation couldnt be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 5.)" I know that Error Code 5 means parsing ended prematurely, but I don't see any mistakes in the HTML. What could be causing the error? Here's the code for my parser, if you're interested: -(void)parseHTML:(NSString *)html { htmlDataString = [html stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@\n withString:@""]; NSData *htmlData = [htmlDataString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSXMLParser *parser = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithData:htmlData]; parser.delegate = self; parser.shouldProcessNamespaces = NO; parser.shouldReportNamespacePrefixes = NO; parser.shouldResolveExternalEntities = NO; structure = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; currentString = @""; [parser parse]; NSLog(@Parser error: %@", parser.parserError); } -(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser didStartElement:(NSString *)elementName namespaceURI:(NSString *)namespaceURI qualifiedName:(NSString *)qName attributes:(NSDi
