"XML Parsing Error: no root element found" on upload

See original GitHub issue

Getting a XML Parsing Error: no root element found after I upload a file in Firefox. Using v0.2.1.

I’m surprised there is an error since I have a very basic setup. What am I missing?

Edit: I’m seeing the same error in the console when trying the demos on Filestack’s website

My code:

let filestackClient = filestack.init('mykey');
filestackClient.pick({
    maxFiles: 1,
    accept: ['image/*'],
    startUploadingWhenMaxFilesReached: true,
    fromSources: ['local_file_system', 'facebook']
})

Hey @tlshaheen, thanks for reporting this. I was able to replicate the issue in Firefox 52. Is this error causing upload failures on your end? When reproducing it didn’t seem to halt the upload flow.

We’ll look into this and let you know what we find.

I also would like this issue to be reopened since i am facing the same Problem with a multipart upload from the browser. For me it also causes the upload to fail. This happens in Firefox, but not in Google Chrome. I am using EvaporateJs for the multipart upload.
