    '.', hexadecimal value 0x00, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 1.

    Hi guys,

    I have around 15 umbraco websites runing on Azure Web Apps Australia East. in the last 2 weeks, MS Azure have been having major storage issues in this data centre.

    Right now, I can't log in to any of my Umbraco 6 websites. I'm getting the below error right after entering my username and password.

    enter image description here

    My Umbraco 7 websites are fine.

    I have looked around some of the config files trying to spot any corruprion without any luck.

    The websites are still serving content, it is only broken when I try to login to the backend.

    Any help or guidance with this issue is much appreciated.

    Thanks, Ibrahim

    You're likely affected by this problem: http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-5126

    Check your applications.config/trees.config.

    Hi Sebastiaan,

    Thanks for your prompt response. You were spot on, the trees.config file is corrupted.

    enter image description here

    Can I just restore that file from backup?

    Thanks,

    Ibrahim

    Sure, hopefully you're using source control.
