Parsing an empty source. Root element expected! error in fcc using MTB

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

While converting a flat file to xml using MTB , i'm facing this error in mapping.

" com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException thrown during application mapping .....

Parsing an empty source. Root element expected! "

Whereas the audit log in file channel - Communication channel monitoring shows that , the payload transformed but i'm unable to view the source message.

Please let me know the resolution if anyone has faced the same issue..

thanks,

younus

Hi,

I think you are testing in the Test Tab of Mapping

Here in your case you are using the FCC, and you are giving the Text file in the Test Tab,

So that conversion wont happen here.

Tha will be converted through the FCC and pass it to the mapping,

So when you tested end-end scenario, then only it will get success
