>          Key: NUTCH-145
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-145
>      Project: Nutch
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: web gui
>     Versions: 0.8-dev
>  Environment: Windows XP, Cygwin, Eclipse, JDK 1.4.1
>     Reporter: KuroSaka TeruHiko
>     Priority: Minor

>
> When I ran ant build from within Eclipse, it failed on src/web/include/zh/header.xml and src/web/pages/zh/*.xml because "document does not h ave a root element" (translated from Japanese message).
> At a closer look at these files, they have an invisible Unicode UTF-8 BOM character, that is EF BB BF in hex, or \357\273\277 in octal, at the beginning.
> Perhaps JDK 1.4.x UTF-8 converter does not handle the BOM for UTF-8 files. (Note that BOM was orginially intended to be used to UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings to self-identify the endianness.  But Microsoft started using UTF-8-ized BOM as a character encoding signature.)
> Also noticed was, they use MS-DOS style end-of-line sequence, CR followed by LF, unlike other ??/*.xml files which use UNIX style EOL.
> Fixed files are available.
