How to fix Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence

Question

I am trying to fetch the below xml from db using a java method but I am getting an error

Code used to parse the xml

DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = Docu         


        

Answer 1

I had a similar problem. I had saved some xml in a file and when reading it into a DOM document, it failed due to special character. Then I used the following code to fix it:

String enco = new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(listPayloadPath+"/Payload.xml")), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

Document doc = builder.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(enco.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));

Let me know if it works for you.
