Strange error in cfserver.log file

[andrewdixon]

We are seeing the following error message in the cfserver.log file over and over again.

[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.

That is it, the complete message. It appear line after line after line. There doesn't appear to be a related error message anywhere else, anyone know what it means and where it might be coming from?

This error is thrown from org.xml.sax.SAXParseException while trying to parse XML. Any other errors in the runtime/logs at the same times pointing to what code is trying to process XML? Are you processing XML files in your code or is this most likely coming from ColdFusion as it tries to process one of its own xml files?

Hi Ken,

There is nothing in runtime/logs all we are getting is "[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file." in the cfserver.log file over and over, for example:

[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.
[Fatal Error] :-1:-1: Premature end of file.

There are pages and pages of it. We process XML from three different web services, however we are not getting any errors on the site or in the application.log or exception.log.

From what you are saying we would expect to get a parse error either on the page and/or in the exception.log. I'm not even sure if this is even causing us any kind of problem, but I don't like seeing unexplainable error messages in the logs.
