How to identify the error when create database is unsuccessful
by Dave Day 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

Greetings list, I'm getting the following error when I try to create a new database using the Basex gui on windows. "No text allowed before root element." This is the error I get if I set the parsing option to 'use internal XML parser'. If I uncheck that, I get "Content is not allowed in prolog." The file I am using as input does not have a prolog statement. If I look at the .log folder, there is nothing in there. I suspect that the FTP process I used (microsoft ftp command from a dos window) to move the data from an IBM mainframe to my desktop has done something to the file. Isn't there some way to turn on a diagnostic feature to see exactly what the parsing issue is? I don't see anything in the file before the root element using Notepad. Thanks for any help, -- Dave Day

proc:system ?
by jean-marc Mercier 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

Hello BaseX team, I am an extensive user of the proc:system BaseX command (and looking forward for proc:fork !). I am using this command with in-memory arguments, it means that my way of using it is : proc:system("my_exe", $my_arguments_for_exe) $my_arguments_for_exe is an xml node serialized to string by BaseX. As my test are getting more complex, the size of $my_arguments_for_exe are increasing. It seems that we are reaching a limit now, since the compiler refuses to pass arguments : "Stopped at CoDeFi_Interface.xqm, 44/22: [BXPR9999] Cannot run program "C:\Jiheme\scientifique\recherche\CoDeFi\CoDeFi\CoDeFi.exe": CreateProcess error=206, Nom de fichier ou extension trop long " Is there a way to bypass this ? Thank you for your answer, Cheers, Jean-Marc

Storing SQL text as an XML element
by Dave Day 10 Oct '17

10 Oct '17

Greeting list, Is there anything 'special' that needs to be done to an SQL statement to save it as an XML element in BaseX? Create the element, move the text? What happens if the SQL has the "<" or ">" embedded within the text? Regards, -- Dave Day

HTTP module
by Giuseppe Celano 10 Oct '17

10 Oct '17

Hi, I am accessing a RESTful API via the following command: curl -F data=(a)example.txt -F tokenizer= -F tagger= -F parser= http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/udpipe/api/process > example2.txt I am wondering what the best way is to do that in BaseX. The service also has a URL syntax, as shown in the following example: http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/udpipe/api/process?tokenizer&tagger&pars…. <http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/udpipe/api/process?tokenizer&tagger&pars….> I have tried: http:send-request(<http:request method='get' href='http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/udpipe/api/process?tokenizer&tagger&…'/>) and works perfectly; but I was trying to put the body of the request in http:body, but it does not work: http:send-request(<http:request method='get' href='http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/udpipe/api/process'> <http:body media-type ="string"> tokenizer&tagger&parser&data=Děti pojedou k babičce. Už se těší. </http:body> </http:request>) I could invoke the curl command in BaseX, but maybe there is a more elegant way to send the content of the file (than adding it to the URL). Thanks.

Strange compilator behavior ?
by jean-marc Mercier 09 Oct '17

09 Oct '17

Hello BaseX team ! I lost some time to detect an error in my code, and wonder if there is a minor bug into the BaseX compiler. Here is the test let $elt as element(*)*:= <universe id="yolo"></universe> for $d in (1 to 1) return let $idd := $elt[d]/@id return ($elt[$d]/@id,$idd) output : id="yolo". (Hence missing the second "yolo", because the correct query is : let $idd := $elt[$d]/@id) However I can't figure out why the BaseX compiler ran this query ? Shouldn't it refused the compilation and point out this error ? Cheers, Jean-Marc

Directory from which xml files are loaded
by helmut 08 Oct '17

08 Oct '17

Hi everyone. I am using basex in embedded mode. I set the basex base directory with System.setProperty("org.basex.path", path). In this path I have a .basexhome file which defines REPRO, DBPATH ... and so on. For loading an xml file to the database I use e.g. new Add(path, file).execute(context). "file" is given as an absolute path. However, when I query the database I get the error [FODC0002] Resource 'path/xyz.xml' does not exist, with a path which points now to my the system property user.home or user.dir. How can I change this behaviour? What I am missing? I don't want to change user.home or user.dir, because other things might depend on the properties. I read through the configuration guide and many other pages, but didn't find something. http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Configuration Thanks very much, Helmut

put with relative uri
by Andy Bunce 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

Hi, I notice fn:put() appears to be resolving uris relative to the working directory, as the file module does, rather than static-base-uri() as fn:doc() does. I dont think it was always like this and it seems to against the intent of the spec[1]? /Andy [1] The external effects of upd:put are implementation-defined, since they occur outside the domain of XQuery. The intent is that, if upd:put is invoked on a document node and no error is raised, a subsequent query can access the stored document by invoking fn:doc with the same URI. https://www.w3.org/TR/xquery-update-10/#id-upd-put fn:put(<a/>"test.xml") --------------------------- fn:doc("test.xml") (: [FODC0002] Resource 'C:/.../test.xml' does not exist. :)
