question

Hi Chistian, In order to get some path to the element that is being processed I hoped that the following statement [ 1] would return a sequence of positions of each node amongst its siblings. Unfortunately it only returns a bunch of: 1. [ 1] $element/ancestor-or-self::* ! ./fn:position() Should this work? Is there some other ;-) clever way to retrieve a path to a random element that is being processed? TIA for your reply, Rob Stapper

How to restrict access to restxq functions just for the same domain
by Ioan Fericel 13 May '16

13 May '16

Hi, I seemed that this is the behavior if disabling REST Service in web.xml (BaseX.war deploymented on Tomcat), but this does not happen. The surprise is that the functions are accessible from anywhere, if access is not protected by other methods. I'm doing wrong, what should be setting? I use BaseX 8.3. Thanks for any guidance! Ioan

Basex on maven central
by Lance Java 13 May '16

13 May '16

It seems that maven central is not up to date with the latest basex version. I see here that there's only version 7.3.1 whereas on the basex website the latest version is 8.4.4 http://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.basex%22 Are there any plans to keep maven central up to date with basex releases?

Recursion error
by Alex R. Loayza 11 May '16

11 May '16

When performing a query on BaseX on a Windows 8 PC, the query runs normally. When doing the same query on a copy of the database in another Windows 8 PC, I get "[bxerr:BASX0005] Stack Overflow: Try tail recursion?" Any ideas as to what could be causing this difference in behavior? Thank you. Alex

dba lags on update
by Marco Lettere 10 May '16

10 May '16

Hi all, I have a single resource in a db. I perform several replace operations on that resource. The dba interface show an increasing number of resources available in the db according to the number of replace operations performed. To get the count of resources back to 1 I need to optimize the database. Anyway, when opening the database the visible content is correct (only the one resource). Seems like the dba interface counts the gone instances of the resource as well ... Regards, Marco.

Problem solved. A database file was corrupted. Re-creating the database solved the problem.

Executing xq file from client fails
by cmarchand＠oxiane.com 09 May '16

09 May '16

Hello, while running a .xq file on a database generates this error. The error is database-content relative ; with some data I have the error, with other data, I do not have the error. my lanceClient.sh is just /usr/local/basex4/bin/basexclient -nFR003-D0659 -p4984 -Ubasex -Pbasex $* Any hint to help me find where I have to search ? I can provide the .xq* files but for data, it wil be complicated : I have more than 7Gb in one collection (which never changes) ; other filewhich generates the error is 1.8Mb and can be provided, if needed. Best regards, Christophe $ ./lanceClient4.sh -d -bp-repertoire-output=/home/efladm/webbuint/uaur/om-work/orders/ /home/efladm/webbuint/uaur/om-work/xquery/create-orders-formulaires.xq org.basex.core.BaseXException: Improper use?

Re: [basex-talk] Load 5GB xml using python
by Henning Phan 09 May '16

09 May '16

Hello,My case:1. A (non technical) user uploads a 5 GB xml which gets parsed by basex2. Does some queries to check and modify some values3. Downloads the modified 5 GB xml back. So I'm planning to allow the user to edit their xml through a web application and therefore the user must upload the xml to the web application. I'm using python and when I receive the xml I want to create a database by using the create function from the client API, but the create(name, content) forces me to load the 5GB in memory which it cannot handle. I read the java client API which takes a stream unlike the python API. Am I forced to use java? What options are there to solve this problem gracefully? Any options that involve Python? Thank you for reading this - Henning

Web application static files
by Murray, Gregory 06 May '16

06 May '16

Hello, I'm new to BaseX, and I'm setting up a simple web application (on Mac/Unix, using the ZIP distribution of BaseX). I'm unable to bring in static files like CSS. Following the documentation and the "dba" web application that comes with BaseX, I have included the following in the HTML: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="static/app.css"/> to point to a file that resides here: ~/basex/webapp/bookplates/static/app.css I have a module sitting here: ~/basex/webapp/bookplates/controller.xqm with a function with these annotations: %rest:path("bookplates") %output:method("html") When I point my browser to http://localhost:8984/bookplates/ the server successfully returns the HTML, but when the browser tries to load the CSS it requests http://localhost:8984/bookplates/static/app.css and the server responds with a 404 saying "No function found that matches the request" as if the server is looking for a RESTXQ function. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Greg

KILL session
by George Sofianos 06 May '16

06 May '16

I'm trying to create an environment where I can have mutliple BaseX Servers, and I can run 2-3 complex queries on them at a time. However, I want to have the ability to stop a running XQuery script for any reason. I assumed that's what would happen if I KILL the session using a BaseX client. However when I try to KILL a session I have the following issues: 1) BaseX client freezes and I have to CTRL-C to stop it 2) The session I try to kill is removed from the list, but the process continues to run. I have to force kill -9 the basex server for it to stop. Should I report this as a bug or is there another way to kill the running scripts? Thanks
