Hi, pardon the silly question, but how do I get a list of databases exactly? I'm looking at: https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/blob/master/basex-examples/src/main/java/o… and want output like: > list Name Resources Size Input Path ---------------------------------- books 0 4570 1 database(s). > but using: http://docs.basex.org/javadoc/org/basex/core/cmd/List.html thanks, Thufir

basex OOM on 30GB database upon running /dba/db-optimize/
by first name last name 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

Hi, Let's say there's a 30GB dataset [3] containing most threads/posts from [1]. After importing all of it, when I try to run /dba/db-optimize/ on it (which must have some corresponding command) I get the OOM error in the stacktrace attached. I am using -Xmx2g so BaseX is limited to 2GB of memory (the machine I'm running this on doesn't have a lot of memory). I was looking at [2] for some estimates of peak memory usage for this "db-optimize" operation, but couldn't find any. Actually it would be nice to know peak memory usage because.. of course, for any database (including BaseX) a common operation is to do server sizing, to know what kind of server would be needed. In this case, it seems like 2GB memory is enough to import 340k documents, weighing in at 30GB total, but it's not enough to run "dba-optimize". Is there any info about peak memory usage on [2] ? And are there guidelines for large-scale collection imports like I'm trying to do? Thanks, Stefan [1] https://www.linuxquestions.org/ [2] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Statistics [3] https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lTEGA4JqlhVf1JsMQbloNGC-tfNkeQt2

Does BaseX used as a command line XQuery processor build a full tree of an input document passed with -i option?
by Martin Honnen 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

If I use BaseX (9.2.4) simply as an XQuery 3.1 processor from the command line with e.g. basex.bat -i input.xml query.xq does BaseX then first always parse the input.xml into an XDM tree, meaning if I use huge input documents that way I can run easily run out of memory? Or does that depend on the type of query or some other settings? I was wondering whether a "tumbling window" based split algorithm like declare namespace output = "http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization"; declare option output:method 'xml'; declare option output:indent 'yes'; declare variable $chunk-size as xs:integer external := 500; for tumbling window $chunk in /*/* start at $sp when $sp mod $chunk-size = 1 count $p return put(document { element { node-name(head($chunk)/..) } { $chunk } }, 'xquery-split-result-' || $p || '.xml') would run/work without memory problems for huge inputs.

I am using an ssl certificate and have a keystore on my production Basex instance. Are there extra steps needed to make an HTTPS request from a server to a basex server when those are in place?

HTTPServer + gzip compression
by Stefan Koch 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

Hi, I'm struggling to get gzip compression working. I'm using the REST module. http://docs.basex.org/wiki/REST Version: BaseX 9.2.2 Tried to add the handler in jetty.xml as descriped here: https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/current/gzip-filter.html But it didn't work. Tried gzip filter via web.xml - but it is deprecated since jetty 9.3. Gzip handler is the correct way to do it. Searched the mailling list, similar problem was reported here: https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/pipermail/basex-talk/2019-February/014160.h… Unfortunately no solution :( Not much experience with embedded jetty - but adding gzip compression is straight forward in tomcat or apache - no clue why it doesn't work.Shouldn't be that hard - and it's kinda a default feature. Did anybody get it to work? Any tipps? Thanks Stefan Koch B&IT Solutions Dipl.-Kfm.

Database corrupted on updating with RestXQ
by Marco Lettere 26 Sep '19

26 Sep '19

Hi all, starting with 9.2.1 we experience a strange error with a RESTXQ API of ours that we have been using for years. The typical pattern is lookup a document update it and store it back. We have done this milions of time and also all the tests work neatly. But when using it from inside the web application, at around the tenth operation we get the DB corrupted with the stack trace [1]. This seems to happen only when the database is nearly empty and, for sure, it doesn't appear on 8.x series. It feels like some concurrency flaw is introduced somewhere but it's hard to say because the API is eight years in age and it never changed significantly. I know it's hard without an SSCE... but while working to insulate this byzantine behaviour (I've been trying for days now) maybe someone in the list has a clue or is able to interpret the stack trace? Thanks and have a nice weekend, Marco. [1] Improper use? Potential bug?

Connection timeout
by Marie Starck 26 Sep '19

26 Sep '19

Been debugging this for the past couple of days and I am a bit stumped. I am doing a simple get REST request to my BaseX server from a node server and I keep getting a connection timeout error. I also tried the basex node client and I get the same error message. All of this works fine on localhost and what's even weirder is that I can access the BaseX rest endpoint through my browser just fine. Any ideas? I have SSL installed on my BaseX server. Could that be the issue? SOCKET ERROR: { Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 159.89.126.125:1984 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1173:14) errno: 'ETIMEDOUT', code: 'ETIMEDOUT', syscall: 'connect', address: '159.89.126.125', port: 1984 } Thank you for any help you can give me, Marie

readable encryption result
by Andre Bovy 23 Sep '19

23 Sep '19

Dear all, I try to make the result of the encryption readable by converting the result either in Base64 or in Hex. Yet I am not able to convert it back to be able to decrypt. Could you help me ? André Bovy let $encrypted := crypto:encrypt('message', 'symmetric','keykeyke','DES’) let $base64 := string(convert:string-to-base64($encrypted)) let $encrypted := convert:binary-to-string(xs:base64Binary($base64)) (: generates invalid characters :) return crypto:decrypt($encrypted, 'symmetric','keykeyke','DES')

Full-text index on mixed content
by Schopper, Daniel 23 Sep '19

23 Sep '19

Dear all, chatting after a session of the ongoing TEI conference ( https://graz-2019.tei-c.org) I was asked about plans to support fulltext indexes on mixed content nodes in BaseX – I did not know of any, so I wanted to pass the question on to this list: Is there a plan to implement this feature in the near (or not-so-near) future? If not, did somebody of the core devs estimate the effort to get this done? (needless to say that it would an awsome feature to have in BaseX ;-) Thanks in advance & best Daniel (just being curious) -- Mag.
