Question:
Proton Orion Subscription - Error when parsing notification XML

Description:
I had configured Orion and Proton FIWARE Generic Enablers and made a subscription in Orion to send a notification to Proton when an entity of type Node is modified.

It happens that Proton is returning an error related with the parsing of the received XML.

proton | Mar 02, 2016 11:46:47 AM com.ibm.hrl.proton.webapp.providers.EventXmlNgsiMessageReader readFrom
proton | INFO: started event message body reader
proton | Mar 02, 2016 11:46:47 AM com.ibm.hrl.proton.webapp.providers.EventXmlNgsiMessageReader readFrom
proton | INFO: Event: NodeContextUpdate
proton | Mar 02, 2016 11:46:47 AM com.ibm.hrl.proton.webapp.providers.EventXmlNgsiMessageReader readFrom
proton | SEVERE: Could not parse XML NGSI event java.lang.NullPointerException, reason: null
proton | last attribute name: null last value: null

I found that at least another user had posted a similar question but the answer to that question does not fits (and solve) my situation.

EDIT:

Here is the POST request that Proton has received:
