Hello, when do you plan to release a package for RedHat? The repository has only v7.8. FYI, 7.9 solves a bug that we just found in 7.8, so, good work! :-)

Hello, I have created embedded database using java API. Now, while opening the databases using XQJ client-server architecture. Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.xquery.XQException: BXCE001 - Stopped at ., 1/245: [BXDB0002] The database format has changed; please use a newer version. at HelloWorld.main(HelloWorld.java:39) I started the BaseXServer and while running BaseXClient from command prompt, following is the output of "list" command. > list name Resources Size Input Path ------------------------------------- testDB 0 0 Error but I am able to open the same database through Java API. So, my question is can we use databases which are created in embedded mode and use it through client-server architecture ? Thanks, -- *Kunal Chauhan* mail4ck(a)gmail.com [+918655517141]

RestXQ and file paths
by Lars Johnsen 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

There seems to be a difference in file referecense when using %rest:path("/show/{$welcome}") %method("html") vs. %rest:path("/show") %rest:form-param("welcome", "{$welcome}") %method("html") In the first version it appears that references within to folder /static inside the BaseX web directory are not found (images stylesheets etc.), while it works nicely using parameter. This snippet may illustrate, the secon shows the logo, the other won't: module namespace page = 'http://basex.org/modules/web-page'; declare %rest:path("/show/{$welcome}") %output:method("html") function page:show($welcome) { <html><body><img src="static/logo.png"/><p>{$welcome}</p></body></html> }; declare %rest:path("/show") %rest:form-param("welcome", "{$welcome}") %output:method("html") function page:showparam($welcome) { <html><body><img src="static/logo.png"/><p>{$welcome}</p></body></html> };

BaseX v7.9 Tomcat Issues
by Bridger Dyson-Smith 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

Hi all, I'm exploring webapps and BaseX using Tomcat 7.0.53 and I'm running into an odd error, or set of errors, with v7.9. For example, visiting localhost:8080/BaseX79 the page isn't styled [1] and trying the test in Example 2 fails [2]. This isn't a huge deal, as I also have v7.8.2 which works fine. For my current level of tinkering it is more than sufficient. However, I was wondering if there was something I needed to change in v7.9. In both versions I simply downloaded the .war and dropped it into my $tomcat/webapps directory. Best, Bridger [1] [2]

A good way to backup/restore database to/from an external file
by Ioan Fericel 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

Hi all, I would ask you to give me an opinion on what would be the simplest solution, when pressing a button in a web page that triggers the function "db:create-backup" of BaseX, to have the possibility of saving the resulting file in a location chosen by the user, including the name generated from the concatenation of timestamp. Possibly with the option to not be saved in the default location. And also the reverse way: restore a database from a backup file (zip), showing the path to it, with the file upload. Thanks for any ideas, Ioan
