Thread:Project:Support desk/Mediawiki API + Autowikibrowser Error ... Something to do with XML Format

Hi

MW 1.23.5 PHP 5.4 Mysql 5.5

I am trying to configure autowikibrowser for my wiki www.vaniquotes.org

When I setup the site credentials for autowikibrowser. I receive the error 'Error connecting to Wiki' And in the problem it states is some xml errors.

Going one step ahead i tried to run the following query in my browser for my wiki

http://vaniquotes.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general|namespaces|namespacealiases|statistics|magicwords&format=xml

and find an error XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document

I checked the console in firebug and there is a leading new line character in the xml response which is causing the error.

But I don't understand how to fix it? My mediawiki installation is a new one and the most recent release, so I was wondering what could be the problem and how to fix it.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks

Arnab
