File "filename.xml" is malformed

[mmeehan]

I have used the tool a few times before but I hat a road block on this migration. no outstading issues when I merge the file and the XML downloads without error. I can Import the config to the firewall but when I run the "load config partial" commands I get the malformed XML error.

I am using version 1.1.9 or Expedition and 8.1.6 on the target firewall.

Any ideas?

What's more interesting is the .XML file that I download is incomplete, it stops about 1/2 way down the file and does not include any of hte <config> tags.

just to verify the process you used to upgrade - did you run both the commands below:

$sudo apt-get update

$sudo apt-get install expedition-beta

Also, there is an option to download a .zip file when the XML is generated. Can you also check the XML files in the zip files to see if the XML is in the same state.

Yes ran both commands to update the tool, I also downloaded and reinstalled to make sure that wasn't an issue.

I get the same error from the direct download and from the .zip download. When i open the the .xml in Firefox it shows there is an error on the file although it's not clear to me what it means.

can you send 2 files to the fwmigrate @ paloaltonetworks.com alias for review of your issue:

-The malformed XML

-Export the project file

Also a screenshot of the Expedition dashboard showing the version.
