ios XML parsing : Error Domain=NSXMLParserErrorDomain Code=76 on some devices

Question

I get this error in my app on one specific iPhone 4 device while parsing an XML Feed:

error parsing XML: Error Domain=NSXMLParserErrorDomain Code=76

I am not able to determine why it's happening on this particular device and not others: this is the same feed. There are no XML errors in the feed XML structure and all devices have the same global general settings.

According to the docs, Error 76 is NSXMLParserTagNameMismatchError.

Answer 1

this error happens when the closing tag doesn't match the opening tag, like so:

<hello>
    <hi />
    <hi />
    <hi />
</goodbye>

or

<hello />
    <hi />
    <hi />
    <hi />
</hello>

(the tag was closed on the first line)

Cut and paste your xml here to validate. The error messages are pretty solid.

Answer 3

Your xml may be inconsistent. Validate it against http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input
