I have been trying to access components using cfinvoke and always get an error message. The only way I can get it to work is through cfhttp.
When I use cfinvoke, I always get the following error:
XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.
The same component works just fine through cfhttp.
This fails:
<cfinvoke component="componentfolder.componentname" method="method" returnvariable="return">
<cfinvokeargument name="variable" value="#id#">
</cfinvoke>
This works:
<cfhttp url="http://component.cfc" method="get" result="result" charset="utf-8">
<cfhttpparam type="url" name="method" value="method">
<cfhttpparam type="url" name="variable" value="#id#">
</cfhttp>
@isruther always mention version. Can you please share your stack trace?

Should I be able to call a component on a remote server by url using cfinvoke? I know I can with Adobe CF because this same code works in that environment.
