    Wouldn't it be helpful to specify in the error where the syntax error in the XML file is located at? I mean like msxml does it since version 1.0? An invalid XML hardly qualifies for an "unknown error". The parser identified the XML as being invalid so at least some sort of "invalid file" error should be reported.

    The errors code is 0xC00CE56D, which comes from IXMLDOMParserError. How do I get additional informations?

    As I know 0xC00CE56D looks like end tag does not match start tag, but I cannot tell more for instance which tag is not match.

    However I think there are lot of XML validator online can tell you which tag does not meet, for instance: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_validator.asp
