With such an imprecise description (i.e no sample data file provided), it is 
difficult to know...

For KML, you need to have GDAL compiled with the LIBKML driver (not the base 
KML driver). Check the first lines of the output of "ogrinfo XXXXXX.kml". It 
must report:

INFO: Open of 'XXXXXX.kml'
      using driver `LIBKML' successful.

For GML, this should work for most cases, but there might be caveats depending 
of your data file.
