by EV Narasimham 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hi, I have 3 application modules. One module, creates the xml database, the second/third module execute queries on the database (no updates are being performed on the database). When the second and the third module try accessing the database, once module is able to query the database while the other module ends up with the below exception. org.basex.core.BaseXException: Improper use? Potential bug? Your feedback is welcome: Contact: basex-talk(a)mailman.uni-konstanz.de Version: BaseX 7.8 beta Java: Oracle Corporation, 1.7.0_25 OS: Linux, amd64 Stack Trace: java.nio.channels.OverlappingFileLockException at sun.nio.ch.SharedFileLockTable.checkList(FileLockTable.java:255) at sun.nio.ch.SharedFileLockTable.add(FileLockTable.java:152) at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.tryLock(FileChannelImpl.java:1017) at org.basex.io.random.TableDiskAccess.lck(TableDiskAccess.java:183) at org.basex.io.random.TableDiskAccess.sharedLock(TableDiskAccess.java:170) at org.basex.io.random.TableDiskAccess.<init>(TableDiskAccess.java:83) at org.basex.data.DiskData.init(DiskData.java:122) at org.basex.data.DiskData.<init>(DiskData.java:92) at org.basex.core.cmd.Open.open(Open.java:68) at org.basex.core.cmd.Open.run(Open.java:35) at org.basex.core.Command.run(Command.java:344) at org.basex.core.Command.exec(Command.java:320) at org.basex.core.Command.execute(Command.java:77) at org.basex.core.Command.execute(Command.java:89) Below are the options being set: context.globalopts.set(GlobalOptions.GLOBALLOCK, false) ; context.globalopts.set(GlobalOptions.PARALLEL, 1) ; //After referring to https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/574<https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/574> When the same exercise is being undertaken on a windows machine, the above behavior does not occur.

Prefetch DOM root node (no lazy loading) using QueryProcessor command
by Erdal Karaca 19 Oct '13

19 Oct '13

Hi all, When querying a DOM Node (from DB on file system, i.e. no in memory DB) using QueryProcessor command: will the whole Node be fetched from the database or will parts of the Node's children still access the file system if not loaded yet? Thanks!

browser does not execute redirects
by Florian Eckey 19 Oct '13

19 Oct '13

Hi guys, i have a problem with redirects in basex. I have following function: declare %restxq:path("anyPath") function { "Some XQuery Code", <restxq:redirect xmlns:restxq="http://exquery.org/ns/restxq ">/restxq/anyOtherPath</restxq:redirect> }; This function I call with http://localhost/restxq/anyPath in my browser (Chrome). So I expect, that the browser gets the redirect an executes it. But it only returns: <restxq:redirect xmlns:restxq="http://exquery.org/ns/restxq ">/restxq/anyOtherPath</restxq:redirect> instead of the redirected page. In the attachment there is a screenshot. Is there anyone with the same problem or a solution? Regards, Florian PS: Are there any BaseX developer meetings in Germany?

Implementation of fn:collection
by Jeremy Moseley 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

Hi Guys, I was trying to use the fn:collectino function today, but I am having trouble understanding the implementation. From past experience, fn:collection($uri) (where $uri points to a document with a list of docs within it) has returned a sequence of all the documents. It appears that BaseX does not implement it this way. I have a database where I am storing a large number of documents, and I would like to have several collections inside which are subsets of these documents. I need to open these subsets quickly, and I thought fn:collection would allow me to do this. Is there any way to easily open these subsets using fn:collection (or a similar high performance function)? As of right now I am solving the problem by using a for loop to traverse the documents, but this is not fast enough for my needs. Thanks, Jeremy

OAI-PMH
by Lars Johnsen 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

Hello all I am looking into the possibility of using BaseX as an OAI-PMH metadata provider and harvester, and wondered if anyone has experience with it for this purpose. Specifically using BaseX as a repository with the http-service with xquery scripts for accessing and providing metadata records. Presumably, there aren't any limitations on the database side, and since the OAI-PMH protocol is all XML (http://www.openarchives.org/pmh/) it seems like a good idea to try and make it work. So if people on this list have any experience, I would like to hear from you. thanks, Lars G Johnsen National Library of Norway

problem with basexhttp
by Lars Johnsen 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

BaseX is installed by administrators on one of our server machines. When starting the http server, the followng message is displayed: $ ./basexhttp ..../basex/bin/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml not found. which is a bit strange since the webapp folder is a sister folder to the bin folder. So why is it looking for webapp in ..../bin/src/main/ ? The webapp folder in itself do appear to contain all the relevant folders and documents. As it is similar to a working setup on another machine. All the best Lars G Johnsen National Library of Norway

basex 7.7.2 milton-api pom not found
by Dustin Schultz 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Hi, I'm getting a failed build based on a missing dependency related to basex-api: Could not resolve dependencies for project edu.utah.further.core:core-qunit:bundle:1.4.0-SNAPSHOT: Failure to find com.ettrema:milton-api:jar:1.8.1.4 in https://nexus.chpc.utah.edu/content/groups/public was cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted until the update interval of nexus has elapsed or updates are forced -> [Help 1] I noticed that no explicit version is declared for the POM for basex-api which means that Maven will resolve the latest version. Shouldn't there be explicit versions? <dependency> <groupId>com.ettrema</groupId> <artifactId>milton-api</artifactId> </dependency> I can exclude and include 1.7 for now to resolve it but for the future. . . Thanks, Dustin

Constructing query result iterator takes as long as the query execution itself
by Erdal Karaca 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Hi all, When using the QueryProcessor to execute a query, then, constructing an iterator from the Result object takes almost as long as the query execution itself. For example, if QueryProcessor.execute() consumes 100 ms, then Result.iter() takes an additional 75%. Same with Result.value(). Is there something I can boost up? Thanks! Erdal

Fwd: Rest paths and wildcards/regex
by Jeremy Moseley 10 Oct '13

10 Oct '13

Hi Guys, I was wondering if there was any way to implement wildcards and/or regex matching with the %rest:path annotation when using the RESTXQ module. I have several situations where I am matching similar numbers of arguments to different functions, or an unknown number of arguments to a single function, and I was trying to figure out the best way to accomplish this. Cheers, Jeremy

Computed namespaces: which one is wrong?
by Marco Lettere 09 Oct '13

09 Oct '13

Hello all, in 7.6 I used to write code like the following one: <a> {namespace { "" } { "eeeeee" }} </a> it uses to return this as (the expcted) result: <a xmlns="eeeeee"/> In 7.7 the same code snipped returns a runtime exception stating that namespace '' has been declared twice. I assume it's because a default namespace is created under the hood on the root node. Is it? Could I please have any help on this? Thanks a lot, M.
