    <title>how to manually remove corrupt resources</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38147</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Trying to delete a resource via API or via REST and am failing with an
NPE coming from (final cause):
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.exist.storage.NativeBroker.removeXMLResource(NativeBroker.java:2255)

Unfortunately this resource lives at the root of the db, which means
that describeResource is also failing when attempting to use the GUI
client (and consequently kills it). What approach should I take to
manually remove this resource?

Thanks,

    <title>problem running eXist 2.1 on Mac OS 10.7</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38144</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I'm having problems getting eXist to start on a current Mac. Any other 
people using Macs that have had similar problems?

I am successfully running an eXist instance on
a Mac running OS 10.7.4
java version 1.6.0_31
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b04-415-11M3635)
apache tomcat 7.0.21
eXist 1.5.0

I tried downloading and running exist-2.1-dev-rev16458 and am unable to.
The catalina log says
"org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext startInternal
SEVERE: Error filterStart"
If I use the tomcat manager to start exist 2.1 I get
"FAIL - Application at context path /exist21 could not be started"
and the same error in the catalina log

I installed a newer version of tomcat (7.0.27) on that same computer and 
got the same results when I tried to launch eXist 1.5 (worked) and eXist 
2.1 (failed), so I don't think that's the issue.

I then went to a Mac running OS 10.6.8
java version 1.6.0_31
JRE build 1.6.0_31-b04-415-10M3646
apache tomcat 7.0.27

I tried to run exist-2.1-dev-rev16458 and that worked,&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>HTTP 411 error using HTTP Client module (does it setContent-lenght header) ?</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38143</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

I am trying to call a SOAP service (Paypal, using "post") with the send-request() method of the HTTP Client module in eXist, taking inspiration from this example [1]. However the result is that I get a "411 Length Required" error. Note that the request endpoint is an HTTPS endpoint ("https://api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/2.0/").

Here is the beginning of the $req object that I send using http:send-request($req) :

&amp;lt;http:request href="https://api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/2.0/" method="post"&amp;gt;
   &amp;lt;http:header name="SOAPAction" value="SetExpressCheckout"/&amp;gt;
   &amp;lt;http:body media-type="text/xml"&amp;gt;
   ...

Note that if I try to manually set a Content-length by adding a header to the request with an arbitrary value:

   &amp;lt;http:header name="Content-length" value="1000"/&amp;gt;

Then I get an exception from the HTTP Client module :

Error found
Error executing the HTTP method
Java Stack Trace:Class NameMethod NameFile NameLine
org.expath.exist.SendRequestFunctionsendRequestSendRequestFunction.java150

So I would like to kno&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I'm using the httpclient module to fecth json content. I notice that it throws
an exception when it tries to parse the body of the response as XML.  I see a
variant of the HTTPclient:get () with additional parser options but no
indication of what those options might be.  Can they be used to skip the parsing
and return as base64? Even better if it could return JSON rather than me doing a
hack parse.

Alternatively would the EXPath HTTP client module handle fetching JSON?

I saw the GML indexing sample as a use case for custom indexing for
eXist-db on the documentation page here:
http://www.exist-db.org/exist/devguide_indexes.xml#spatial

I wonder if this sample is available as a whole, so it would be easy to
try it out?

    <title>MVC: how to pass requests through multiple XQuery andXSLT views</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38120</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

I am struggling with my understanding of some URL rewriting concepts, 
more specifically the passing of requests through multiple 'views' via 
request attributes (see documentation at 
&amp;lt;http://demo.exist-db.org/exist/urlrewrite.xml#d48607e633&amp;gt;). Any advice 
or clarification is much appreciated.

I would like to check if following interpretation of that documentation 
is correct:
     -If I understand the docs correctly, performance is best when 
request data is passed over different views via request attributes, as 
opposed to via the response body?
     -The docs state that "XSLTServlet will always write to the HTTP 
response". Does this imply that:
         -passing request data via request attributes is only possible 
between 2 XQueryServlet views, or from a XQueryServlet to an XSLTServlet 
view
         -passing request data from a XSLTServlet view to a 
XQueryServlet view is only possible via the http response
     ?

Building on the examples in the documentation, I wanted to test what 
happens whe&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38118</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

 

(Running: 2.0-tech-preview on Windows 7)

 

I'm getting a weird error trying to extract the xqdoc documentation from a
module using eXist's xqdoc module.

 

When I scan the attached module (which is an excerpt from a much bigger one)
with xqdm:scan(), I get the error: error while scanning module: The prefix
"xlxq" for element "xlxq:Menu" is not bound.

 

As you can see, there is only one location where &amp;lt;xlxq:Menu&amp;gt;  is referenced,
and that is in a documentation section!

 

As soon as I remove the &amp;lt;xlxq:Menu&amp;gt; from the documentation part, the error
disappears.

 

Pretty sure this is a bug.

 

Anybody any comments?

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi all,

I wanted to share a blog article I wrote that mentions how exist-db
has enabled my office to create web publications and release ebooks.

  http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/site/entry/frus_ebook

We also launched a twitter widget on our homepage, for which the
twitter modules in trunk were extremely useful.  The widget, on
history.state.gov, shows the most recent tweet from &amp;lt; at &amp;gt;HistoryAtState.
Many thanks for all of the wonderful functionality built into
eXist-db, which made the development of this feature (to name but one)
rapid and customizable.

Cheers,
Joe

    <title>Heads up for anyone running eXist on Amazon Linux - Subversion 1.7 upgrade incompatibility</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38106</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I know there are several others running eXist-db on the Amazon Linux
instances.  Amazon just released an update that installs subversion 1.7 as
the default client.

If you checked out your eXist source code on subversion 1.6 you may not be
able to get updates on the AWS default UNIX instances after the latest
updates.  The new version of subversion generated the following errors on
updates:

$ cd $EXIST_HOME
$ sudo svn update
svn: E155036: Please see the 'svn upgrade' command
svn: E155036: Working copy '/exist' is too old (format 10, created by
Subversion 1.6)

But this does not seem to work...

$ sudo svn upgrade
svn: E155019: Can't upgrade '/exist' as it is not a pre-1.7 working copy
root, the root is '/exist/'

One solution is to re-checkout everything under 1.7 or just re-install the
1.6 version of subversion using the yum command.  Note that "yum downgrade"
does not work:

#!/bin/sh

# this shell script should be run after you do a "sudo yum update" on the
AWS instances
# note that "yum downgrade subver&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

The result is an exception: "Only a group manager may delete a group"

Since admin is a group manager, it should be able to remove the group.

trunk if you think this is fixed there).

    <title>dom.dbx corrupt!?</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38102</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi Exist mailinglist,

We are getting the error in the consistency check report :
ERR_DOM_INDEX:
Failed to access node 1 through dom.dbx index. Wrong storage address. Expected: -1; got: &amp;lt;number&amp;gt;-

We are using Exist:
Version: 1.4.1
SVN Revision: 15155
Build: 20110815

Is the dom.dbx corupt? How can we fix this? And how can we prefent this in the future?
Reindexing did not help, we are now planning a backup &amp;amp; resore.

Thanks,

    <title>trouble with restoring 2.0 database</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38096</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Dear eXist users,

I had serious trouble restoring an inaccessible 2.0 database, yesterday.

For some unknown reason, I could not restart the database I have been using
for many months. This database runs on a (headless) server. Then I tried
the following:

   - to run an emergency backup from the command line. However, this failed.
   - I renamed the data directory and created a new one, restarted eXist.
   Then tried to restore it using the backup facility from the command line. I
   tried several things but failed in all:
      - as the fresh database had an empty admin password, I could not
      access it. Neither leaving out the -u admin, nor leaving a blank
after -p,
      nor inserting an empty string for the password gave me access.
      - I then set the same password on the admin as was in the backup
      (through oXygen, which connected with the new database). However, I got a
      message that the zip file could not be used (I made certain it was found)
      - I then unzipped the backup and t&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <title>selecting last() on preceding and following axis</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38095</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Dear all, 

I just encountered something that looks like a bug (and could be related to [1]?)

Given following query (tested on 2.1-dev-rev16234-20120410 sandbox):
let $testData := 
    &amp;lt;root&amp;gt;
        &amp;lt;item docID="A1"/&amp;gt;
        &amp;lt;item docID="A2"/&amp;gt;
        &amp;lt;item docID="A3"/&amp;gt;
    &amp;lt;/root&amp;gt;
let $caseA :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A3']/preceding-sibling::item[last()]
let $caseB :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A3']/preceding-sibling::item[xs:integer(last())]
let $caseC :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A3']/preceding-sibling::item[position() eq last()]
let $caseD :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A3']/preceding-sibling::item[1]
let $caseE :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A3']/preceding-sibling::item[xs:integer(1)]
let $caseF :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A1']/following-sibling::item[1]
let $caseG :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A1']/following-sibling::item[last()]
let $caseH :=  $testData//item[&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;docID = 'A1']/following-sibling::item[xs:integer(last())]

return $caseA 

Results:
A) nothing --&amp;gt; wrong
B) &amp;lt;item docID="A2"/&amp;gt; --&amp;gt; corre&lt;/pre&gt;</description>

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

Dumb question but how can I enable atom in the... ah... non-standalone version?

    <title>long polling (comet)</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.exist/38087</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi All,

How would I go about creating the possibility to subscribe to
modifications using decent long polling (AKA comet(d))? I want to
create a simple Atom app but don't want to overhead of fetching and
sorting out all entries every time. I know Jetty provides long polling
out of the box, but how can this be used in eXist (1.4.1 or 2.0)?

Thanks.

&lt;/pre&gt;</description>
