I really wish gallium was working so I could try and debug this

[robertdj]

@musm: Have you found a solution? The error

LoadError: "ErrorException("Error parsing document : 0"), no element found, 1, 1, 0"

occurs when parsing the XML file https://cache.julialang.org/http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win64/openSUSE_42.2/repodata/repomd.xml
It's weird because this error only turned up recently for me. Maybe the file was changed at some point?

[musm]

@robertdj maybe try to delete the cache folder in <userfolder>\.julia\v0.6\WinRPMand run WinRPM.build() ... long shot but worth a try

[robertdj]

Your suggestion didn't work, but it inspired me to delete the entire ~\.julia directory -- and that worked :-)

[musm]

ideally we should figure out the problem as deleting the entire ~\.julia is a terrible recommendation, but glad it worked.

[robertdj]

I completely agree! But after such a long time I'm glad to found some way.

[musm]

Is there reproducible case for this bug? I seem to only get it intermittently

[robertdj]

I haven't had any problems after my last update. But then again, I haven't tried to provoke it :-)
