Hi Everyone,
Just thought we'd flag this - on some tests when the status is red the XML
being returned has an invalid character.
I've tried (unsuccessfully) checking for release notes to see if this has
been addressed previously but couldn't find anything (apologies in advance
if it has been fixed previously).
See the XML below - the issue is on the CDATA line just after the â¬
symbol

Interesting.
Can you tell us if the errant XML occurs on all xymondx queries coming
back, or just 'http' results? And all http results, or just this
particular one?
The text where the corruption is should be the post-HTTP Status response
code text, if a connection was possible, or a string with certain types of
connection issues (eg, 'No route to host'), if not. It's possible
something is getting through corrupted. Is it a standard http server on
the other end?
Also, can you pipe this through "cat -A"?
