I am trying to parse the following xml and keep on running into the same error message "Unable to parse XML from string", please see the below error message.

protected function resolveXmlObject($xml): Document

{

    if (! $xml) {

        throw new InvalidContentException('Unable to parse XML from string.');

    }



    return $this->document->setContent($xml);

}

I am new to using xml and am unsure what the issue is with the code that I have provided. If someone could point me in the right direction as to what I am doing wrong that would be greatly appreciated.

Controller

use OrchestraParserXmlFacade as XmlParser;



public function upload()

{

    $xml = XmlParser::load(asset('xml/data.xml'));



    $user = $xml->parse([

        'id' => ['uses' => 'programme::id'],

        'name' => ['uses' => 'programme.name'],

    ]);



    return view ('projects.upload', compact('user'));

}

XML

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

<programme id="1">

Why do you use GET instead of POST as method?
– common sense
yesterday

When I originally set it up using the POST method it did not work when I submitted the form, the GET method worked.

You have to uncomment the csrf field {{ csrf_field() } or change it to @csrf. multipart/form-data must have no space.
– common sense

There are a few things in your code who has to be addressed. You calling the upload() method with action="/projects/upload" I suppose this works because the error is thrown, but you don't pass the $request to the method. How do you store the XML file on your filesystem?
– common sense
yesterday

I hadn't included a show method within my controller, the POST method now works. With regards to where the XML file is stored, it is in my public folder.

The call to asset('xml/data.xml') does not give you a file or an internal path, it gives you the public URL to the file inside the public folder. Try it with public_path('xml/data.xml').

https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/helpers#method-public-path

E.g.

$xml = XmlParser::load(public_path('xml/data.xml'));

What does public_path('xml/data.xml') return? Add dd(public_path('xml/data.xml')) above the line where you load the XML. Add the result to you question.
