Error: Parse error on line 1:
< ? xml version = "1

The last line of types.xml should look like this.......

</types>

...this line is closing the types list.

Types list is opened by <types> then closed by </types>

Items within the list are opened by <type> and closed by </type>

Any failure to observe these will result in the file breaking.

From what you have written it seems you are just missing </types> from the last line of the file.
