Solution 2

The issue was due to some third party extension, when I disabled the third party extension from app/etc/modules the page appears fine.
Then I wrote to the extension support team and they provided me the fix.

OTHER TIPS

In your xml file

First line start with

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

No comment above it or no any space before it and Do not start with new line.

Not like below:

<!-- validators -->
<?xml version="1.0"?>
