153	josm throws exceptions in blank area's?	richard@…	imi	"I'm rather new, and after attending a mapping party in Rotterdam, NL, I wanted to try out josm for my own surrounding streets. After loading my gpx in josm I wasn't able to download data:
- josm either throws an exception ""org.xml.sax.SAXException: Unknown version: null""
or
- Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.4/map?bbox=4.646574709290561,52.395468131130784,4.650615873253842,52.39934260271208

BUT after zooming out a little everything was ok. 
My conclusion: if trying to get data for an area/boundingbox with NO excisting data, a non valid xml is returned by the server in which josm chokes.

running the above url in a browser returns an HTML page:

<html>
−
	<body>
<h1>Application error</h1>
−
	<p>
Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html
</p>
</body>
</html>"	defect	closed	major		unspecified		worksforme
