Hello all, I want to load an SDF file but it keep showing an error:

[ERROR] [1678635055.839001, 0.000000]: Invalid XML: mismatched tag: line 90, column 2

Following is the detailed output:

Here is my sdf file, it does not seem any problem to me at line-40.

Line-39 is: </model> which is second last line. Any help would be highly appreciated. Here is my launch file:
