I’m trying to cascade a remote GeoServer through a local one (mostly for a caching test) however I can’t add the remote one as there is a problem parsing the capabilities request - though looking at it every thing seems fine (Notepad++ parses it fine and reports it as UTF-8 without BOM) but the error claims there is a problem with content in the prolog (line 1, char 1). The request is going through a http proxy but I don’t think that is breaking things.
Can anyone suggest a fix?
cheers

Try checking the response in a hex editor and ensure the first character is really what is expected. We had a similar issue with a database GUI that was adding additional unprintable characters to the start of a dumped SQL file. Same thing may be occurring with the capabilities document.

No - it looks fine in OD.
I also changed the sending WMS to use plain ASCII instead of UTF-8 and still won’t work. Looks like I’m going to have to fetch the source and debug it
