Description Joshua Wulf 2011-07-22 00:51:37 UTC 
put a single whitespace in front of the xml declaration at the start of a zanata.xml and the client blows up when you try to push. 

It should handle whitespace. This is xml, not python!


Works:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <config xmlns="http://flies.openl10n.net/config/v1/">
    <url>http://flies-devel.englab.bne.redhat.com</url>
    <project>anaconda</project>
    <project-version>rhel6</project-version>
    <locales>
      <locale>af</locale>
      <locale>am</locale>
      <locale>as</locale>
      <locale>ar</locale>
    </locales>
 </config>

Explodes:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

Assigning to Scrum product owner for prioritisation.
Comment 2 Sean Flanigan 2011-10-17 03:18:39 UTC 
Sorry, but white space is not allowed before the XML declaration:

$ xmllint zanata.xml
zanata.xml:1: parser error : XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
