Thymeleaf v2.0.15 SaxParse Exception - Scanner state not 24
I am trying to use Thymeleaf template engine for generating Emails in my Spring Web Application. I have followed the documentation on their website, but I keep getting a SaxParseException no matter how simple my HTML5 template is. I am using a HTML 5 template as shown below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<head>
<title th:remove="all">Account confirmation HTML email</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<h3 th:utext="#{mail.template.confirmation.greeting(${user.firstName}, ${user.lastName})}"></h3>
<p th:utext="#{mail.template.confirmation.introduction(${createdDate})}">
</p>
</body>
</html>
My Spring config.
@Bean
public ClassLoaderTemplateResolver emailTemplateResolver() {
ClassLoaderTemplateResolver cltr = new ClassLoaderTemplateResolver();
cltr.setPrefix("/dk/rfit/orderit/web/mail/");
cltr.setSuffix(".html");
cltr.setTemplateMode("HTML5");
cltr.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
cltr.setOrder(3);
cltr.setCacheable(true);
return cltr;
}
@Bean
public TemplateEngine mailTemplateEngine() {
SpringTemplateEngine ste = new SpringTemplateEngine();
ste.setTemplateResolver(emailTemplateResolver());
return ste;
}

Hope that somebody can tell me what to do to solve this problem..
Answer
In addition to Vel's answer: if you need to insert invalid XHTML via utext, which could be perfectly fine for HTML5 (like unclosed <br> tags), you need to use template mode LEGACYHTML5:
cltr.setTemplateMode("LEGACYHTML5");
