Alright. Found the culprit! There was an '&' in the filename which apparently XML does not like. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1328538/how-do-i-escape-ampersands-in-xml
FYI, if for whatever reason you have '&' in your filename, you can replace it with *"**&" ... *or simply dont use '&' ... Also the same problem exists in 4.4. I was opening another file by mistake.
