Hi @aleks ,

my first guess would be that one of your repositories contains an invalid character in its description. We recently fixed the issue, that the XML library we use did not filter such characters correctly, so that invalid files could be written but could not be read, which is cumbersome.

The question is, which repository is affected. If you haven’t changed too much, you will find a directory for each of your repositories in the repository directory in scm home path. In each of these, there is a file metadata.xml. If I do not mistake your trace, one of these files is broken. So you can take a look at them and search for characters like Tabs or other ASCII chard below Hex 20 (space) that are not line breaks. As I’ve mentioned, I’d expect one of these in one of the description tags.

If this does not help or if you need further information, feel free to contact us.

René
