Why am I getting "invalid xml detection in file..." errors while submitting my apps to Splunkbase?

[itrust]

Hi Team,

I encountered an error while submitting my apps to the Splunkbase.
When my package is analyzed by the online tools, it gives error:

invalid xml detection in file: xxx/default/data/ui/views/._default.xml at line 1,
invalid xml detection in file: xxx/default/data/ui/nav/._default.xml at line 1,

but when I run validate_all tools : /opt/splunk/bin/splunk cmd python validate_all.py, i have no errors on files.

Any help or idea or other validating tools appreciate.

Hitting the same error, while submitting my apps to the Splunkbase.
What is the workaround for this ?

Hi itrust,

remove the ._* files form your package and it should work.

cheers, MuS

Hi Mus,
thanks for reply, but unfortunally, it does not help, my package do not contains ._default.xml files.

I think the splunkbase validation script extract the package and copy default.xml files into ._default.xml, then it run the test on copies (._default.xml)

BR, seb.
