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

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

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.

Hi, encountering the same problem when trying to submit an app to Splunkbase. My package does not contain any `default/data/ui/views/._inputs.xml`. Any solutions for this problem?

You are tarring up Mac's hidden files
Before you tar, set this variable.
export COPYFILE_DISABLE=true
It worked for me.
