### Apache Hop version? 2.19.0 ### Java version? 21 ### Operating system Windows ### What happened? The "Get data from XML" transform does not handle errors correctly, when reading from a file. Instead of executing the transform connected to the error handling hop, the pipeline just aborts: ``` 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Error] Get data from XML.0 - Could not open file #1 : file:///C:/hop/projects/testarea/test.xml --> org.apache.hop.core.exception.HopException: 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Error] Get data from XML.0 - org.dom4j.DocumentException: Error on line 1 of document : XML document structures must start and end within the same entity. 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Error] Get data from XML.0 - Error on line 1 of document : XML document structures must start and end within the same entity. 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Basic] Get data from XML.0 - Finished processing (I=0, O=0, R=0, W=0, U=0, E=1) 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Minimal] xmlinput - Pipeline detected one or more transforms with errors. 2026/08/18 15:27:18 [Minimal] xmlinput - Pipeline is killing the other transforms! ``` To reproduce just put invalid XML in a file and read it with the transform: <img width="875" height="189" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/593a4ffc-99d7-4017-a234-4aa6ce2e1b5b"; /> Reading the same XML from a field or reading the file name from a field works as expected.
