I got the same error while loading a JSON file in MarkLogic database. I found that the error was that my JSON file wasn't valid. There were some syntax errors in my JSON file. What I could recommend you to do is that you check if your XML file is valid.

Hope this will be helpfull.

User3569076:

It sounds like the request is failing but the Java API can't parse the error message because the error message isn't XML.

When you create the database client, are you specifying the hostname and port for a REST API server?

If not, here are the instructions for creating a REST API server for a database:

http://docs.marklogic.com/guide/rest-dev/service#id_12021

You can test the availability of the REST API by trying to get a document from the host and port in your web browser:

http://docs.marklogic.com/REST/GET/v1/documents

Hoping that helps,
