Tip

Do you have any special characters in passwords?

If you specify passwords inside XML files, take care when giving special characters in the user names and passwords. According to XML specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/xml/), some special characters can disrupt the configuration. For example, the ampersand character (&) must not appear in the literal form in XML files. It can cause a Java Null Pointer exception. You must wrap it with CDATA (http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_cdata.asp) as shown below or remove the character:

 

Code Block
languagexml
<Password>
    <![CDATA[xnvYh?@VHAkc?qZ%Jv855&A4a,%M8B@h]]>
</Password>
