in thread XML::LibXML - could not create file parser context : no error

Hi Hippo, You can assume it to a function happening at regular intervals like the below : 
sub parsexml {

my $parser_obj = XML::LibXML->new();
my $doc;
my $xml_file = "filename.xml";
$doc = $parser_obj->parse_file($xml_file);
my ($xml_node) = $doc->findnodes($xpath);
}

parsexml();
sleep 30;
parsexml();
sleep 30;
.
.

The overall thing happening is , same file is accessed multiple times or parsed multiple times this way over a period of time. I am not sure, if the problems lies here or not. Please revert if more details are required. Thanks, Bala.

    Problem is somewhere else, I would say, as the following works for me without problem: 
    for (1 .. 10000) {
    my $p = 'XML::LibXML'->new;
    my $d = $p->parse_file('example.xml');
    my $n = $d->findnodes('/');
}

    Does any other process overwrite the file at the same time?

      Hi Choroba, The file is actually only read and nothing is written to it. Also, the file is not accessed by any other processes. Does the error statement "No error" has any significance ?? Thanks, Bala.

        Does this help you? Google thinks it is related to "No error". What version of XML::LibXML do you happen to run?

        If nothing is written to the file, it never changes. So why are you parsing it over and over again? I don't see the point in that but perhaps you can explain.
