JDeveloper Error ! oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot map Unicode

Hi All,
I have 2 identical table structures with different data in Oracle.
I am using following xsql and XSLT sheet to produce xml files with these tables. ( have to run twice xsql file by changing the Table names )
When I run the xsql file with Table1, it works fine, produced the xml file on the browser.
But when I run the xsql file with Table2, it gives following error message:
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
Invalid at the top level of the document. Error processing resource 'http://192.10.1.14:8988/Workspace_ONIX-ONIX2-context-root/untitled1.xsql'. Line 1, Position 1
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character.
^
These two are my xsql and xslt files:
- - - - xsql file - - - -
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="TT14.xsl"?>

TT14.xsl file
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

All comments are highly welcomed...
Thanks

Hi Deepak
Thanks for the post, but I am afraid that's not the issue with the error.
I changed both encoding to "UTF-8" still i get the problem.
I tried even without the XSLT sheet, still I have the problem..
- - - - xsql file ---
<?xml version = '1.0' ?>

<page xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="Connection1">
<xsql:query max-rows="-1" null-indicator="no" tag-case="lower">
select * from Table2
</xsql:query>
</page>
- - - - Result ----
<?xml version="1.0" ?>

- <page>
<error>oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character.</error>
</page>
Any Comment ???
Thanks

Oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException:Cannot enable auto commit within JTS transaction

Hi All,
OracleXMLSave class in the Oracle XDK is being used to load XML data into an 8170 database. The Java code is running in IBM WebSphere with container-managed transactions. When JTA is enabled with the Merant JDBC driver for Oracle, we get the following error when the XML is loaded:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot enable auto commit within JTS
transaction
     at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Native Method)
     at oracle.xml.sql.dml.OracleXMLSave.saveXML(OracleXMLSave.java:2213)
     at oracle.xml.sql.dml.OracleXMLSave.insertXML(Compiled Code)
This suggests the OracleXMLSave class is not aware of the fact that it is now operating in a JTS transaction where control is managed elsewhere. i.e. should also not attempt to commit or rollback, as this is the responsibility of the container.
Is there a property which needs to set to prevent the above or does the XDK not work with J2EE (JTS) transactions?.
If you have any useful comments, let me know. Testing the above presents me with a number of problems so if this is easily explained , let me know.
Thanks,
Malcolm

Clearly , there does seem to be something a bit odd with the above stack.
<Bug:1917808> mentions OracleXMLSave in context of plsql equivalent : dbms_xmlsave . i.e dbms_xmlsave is a wrapper around OracleXMLSave class.
disabling autocommit on connection as follows should help:
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("connect string","scott","tiger");
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
to disble auto commit and see if this has an effect.
This issue might be <Bug:1497506>. If disabling autocommit does not work then it appears that it could be this issue .

XSU error oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed

Appication Server: 10g, Database: Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g
I have a table 'sw_icd2' in the database that has one column of XMLType.
The code below, attempts to query this table as 'select * from sw_icd2' and display the result. I was able to execute this query in sqlplus.
But when I run a program using XSU in JDeveloper:
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn, "select * from sw_icd2");
XMLDocument domDoc = (XMLDocument)qry.getXMLDOM();
domDoc.print(System.out);
StringWriter s = new StringWriter(10000);
domDoc.print(new PrintWriter(s));
System.out.println(s.toString());
qry.close();
I get the following Error:
"oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed"
Any ideas on how I can resolve this issue? Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Okay, it looks like the problem has something to do with the TIMESTAMP data type in tables.
oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLQuery can't seem to handle tables with the TIMESTAMP data type.
this code ran fine on my machine :
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import oracle.xml.sql.query.OracleXMLQuery;
import java.lang.*;
import java.sql.*;
public class testXMLSQL {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// Create the connection
System.out.println("before getConnection ");
Connection conn = getConnection("scott","tiger");
System.out.println("after getConnection ");
// Create the query class
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn, "SELECT * FROM EMP");
System.out.println("after OracleXMLQuery object created ");
// Get the XML string
String str = qry.getXMLString();
// Print the XML output
System.out.println("The XML output is:\n"+str);
// Always close the query to get rid of any resources..
qry.close();
} catch(SQLException e) {
System.out.println(e.toString());
// Get the connection given the user name and password.!
private static Connection getConnection(String username,
String password)
throws SQLException
// register the JDBC driver..
DriverManager.registerDriver(new
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
// Create the connection using the OCI8 driver
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@<server_name>:1521:<sid>",
username,password);
return conn;
Then I created another table :
create table emp_test as select * from emp;
added a timestamp to it :
alter table emp_test add (time timestamp(6));
and filled it with timestamp information :
update emp_test set time = timestamp'2005-09-22 09:26:50.124';
ran the same code but changed the SQL to :
"SELECT * FROM EMP_TEST"
and got the error message :
The XML output is:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ERROR>oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Conversion to String failed</ERROR>
looks like bug in OracleXMLQuery object??

Oracle XML SQL utility, error oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException:....

I am using Oracle XML SQL utility to generate some XML using CURSOR

WHERE PROJECT.PROJ_ID = ISSUES.PROJ_ID )
as ISSUES_DATA
FROM PROJECT
WHERE PROJECT.PROJ_ID = 1
This query works fine when I create a direct connection using Oracle JDBC
thin driver. But when I execute same thing using a connection from a
Weblogic connection pool (which uses exactly the same Oracle JDBC thin
driver, classes12.zip), I get following error-
<?xml version = '1.0'?>

Thanks for your reply.
Here is what I am doing:
I have connection pool defined in welogic.properties file
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.oraclePool=\
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.168.2.251:1521:orcl,\
driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver,\

refreshMinutes=5,\
testTable=,\
props=user=someuser;password=somepasswd
weblogic.allow.reserve.weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.oraclePool=everyone
weblogic.jdbc.TXDataSource.orclDataSource=oraclePool
Then I have a DBConnection class which gets connection from the pool
following is some code from DBConnection class
private Connection con = null;
private DataSource ds = null;
private String providerURL;
private String dataSource;
private String contextFactory;
private IpmsProps ipmsProp = null;
public Connection getConnection() {
if ( con == null ) {
try {
ipmsProp = IpmsProps.getInstance();
providerURL = ipmsProp.getProviderURL();
dataSource = ipmsProp.getDataSource();
contextFactory = ipmsProp.getContextFactory();
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(javax.naming.Context.PROVIDER_URL, providerURL);
p.put(javax.naming.Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
contextFactory);
Context ctx = new InitialContext(p);
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(dataSource);
con = ds.getConnection();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Error While creating connection! " +
e.toString());
} // catch
I Hope you will be able to provide me some work around.
Thank you very much for the help.

Hi. It's probably because you're calling some Oracle-specific method,passing it
a pool JDBC object, and though the Oracle methos signature says it will
take a generic java.sql.XXX object, it really is going to assume the thingis
an Oracle class, and fails when it tries to cast it to such.
Depending on how you're getting your pool connection, I may have aworkaround.

Oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Expected name instead of .

Hi,
I'm using XDK in Tomcat to execute queries and get the XML result in the browser. I have written many queries but now I'm having problems in one of them.
The error output that I see in my browser is this one:
<ROOT>
<ERROR>
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Expected name instead of <.
</ERROR>
</ROOT>:
This error message is known as XML-20126 but it's not documented in the XML Developer's Kit Programmer's Guide, so I don't know what to do.
My XSQL query is the following:
<ROOT connection="xxxx_read" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
<xsql:query>
SELECT XMLAGG(XMLELEMENT("NODE",
XMLELEMENT("name", b.nodename),
(SELECT XMLAGG(XMLELEMENT("SERVICE",
XMLATTRIBUTES(a.serviceabbr AS "type")
ORDER BY a.serviceabbr
FROM service a, serviceinstance c
WHERE c.isdeleted='N'
AND a.serviceid=c.serviceid
AND c.nodeid=b.nodeid
ORDER BY b.nodename
) AS "NODES"
FROM node b
WHERE b.isdeleted='N'
</xsql:query>
</ROOT>
That query executes fine in sqlplus, where I can see the XML result.
I think my problem could be related to the size of the XML output. In sqlplus, the output has around 38000 bytes size, which is nothing, so I don't really know why that should be a problem. Do you have any idea?
Thanks for your help,
David

So it seems there is a problem in fact:
XDB FUNCTION RESULTS ARE TRUNCATED WHEN USING XSQL
*** 02/25/04 08:28 am ***
Problem Description
There appears to be a limit on the content or characters that XSQL pages
handle when being passed data from XDB functions such as XMLAGG() and
XMLELEMENT().
If you have a xsql page of the form
< ?xml version="1.0"?>
< xsql:query xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql" connection="demo" >
select XMLAgg(XMLElement("Test", XMLAttributes(i.id as "Id_van_de_test",
i.name as "Name_van_de_test"))) as "Tests" from problem_xml i
< /xsql:query>
If the number of rows (or amount of data) in the table is low, the result
appears okay. However, if the data returned is large the data appears to
truncate giving xml parsing errors as if the xml returned is not well formed.
In the testcase provided, the error is as follows :-
Results from 10.1.0.2
< Line 2, Column 16354>: XML-20126: (Fatal Error) '< ' cannot appear in attribute value.
< Line 2, Column 16366>: XML-20190: (Fatal Error) Whitespace required.

And the workaround:
======================================================
The only workaround we have is to get the Document generated using
DBMS_XMLQUERY [with expanded entities].
_==Start===
create or replace procedure Query2XML(QueryString varchar2 default
'select col1 from xml_tab where r_id = ?') IS
XMLCtx number;
myXML clob;
myXMLLength number;
BEGIN
XMLCtx := DBMS_XMLQUERY.NEWCONTEXT(QueryString);
myXML := DBMS_XMLQUERY.GETXML(XMLCtx);
myXMLLength := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(myXML);
DBMS_XMLQUERY.CLOSECONTEXT(XMLCtx);
END Query2XMLFile;
_==Start===
Currently, XDB uses a DOM based model for XSLT evaluation. It is not
possible to support disable-output-escaping constructs through this
evaluation. This might be supported in a future release when a different
model is implemented.

I am trying to reuse a code in JDeveloper to get XML from a query. I have copied the code from a method and created a new method with the copied code and changed it. The problem is that when I run the old code I now get following error:

i've copied the same code into another method and only changed the sql-statment to be used and the stylesheet to use to transform the xml. Is something wrong with that?

Thanks for the help,

Actually, having looked at Metalink, seems that although this message may be accurate and correct,
it has been 'introduced' as part of the 9i JDBC driver.
So, I used the 8i JDBC driver I happened to have instead and that worked fine.

XSQL exception displaying funky chars:Cannot map Unicode to Oracle characte

Hi.
I'm using XSQL Servlet to serve XML from a 9.2 database. The varchar columns I'm trying to display have non-ASCII characters in them (Spanish enye, curly quotes, etc.). The database's character encoding is WE8ISO8859P1, which handles these characters fine. Running a simple "select * from..." query, I get this error:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character
which seems odd considering it ought to be mapping an Oracle character to a Unicode character, not the other way around. Additionally, what's the problem? Unicode supports a large superset of WE8ISO8859P1.
Any idea how I can get XSQL Servlet to play nice with these funky characters?
Thanks,
Andrew

Update: still stuck...

XSU Problem:Error-- Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character

Hi, I am using XSU to get the resultset from database(oracle 9.2.0.6.0) as XML.When I query data from some columns and get the XMLString, they give me error -"Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character". The database charset is "US7ASCII" .
One column is storing Chinese with ''US7ASCII".When xmlString Result contianer
the column,there is "oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Cannot map Unicode to Oracle character".But If xmlString Result don't container that column,it run very good.
The program container these libs: ojdbc14.jar,xmlparserv2.jar,xdb.jar,nls_charset12.jar,xsu12.jar.
The program code:
public class OracleXmlParse {

                    "jdbc:oracle:thin:@168.1.1.136:1521:imis","ims","ims");
String selectSQL = "select AREA_CODE,AREA_NAME,REGION_CODE,AREA_NAME_CN from CDM_AREA";
OracleXMLQuery query = new OracleXMLQuery(conn,selectSQL);
query.setEncoding("UTF-8");
String str = query.getXMLString();
System.out.println(str);
conn.close();
}catch(SQLException e){

So, What is the solution ? Is there something I can do in my code ? My program gives the exception and stops. I am not even interested to fetch the data, which are giving this error.

SOAP oracle xml sql utility class definition not found error

I have created a java class that connects to database using JDBC runs an sql statement and produces xml using Oracle XML SQL Utility class. The java class works perfectly when I deploy it as a soap web service and try to run through SOAP server it gives a SOAP error oracle/xml/sql/query/OracleXML/Query [java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError].
Can anyone help please.
Thanks
Alina

Sounds like you have not included the xsu12.jar file in the server-side CLASSPATH.
This depends also on the xmlparserv2.jar and on the Oracle JDBC driver. Later versions
of XSU may also depend on the xdb.jar file, too.

Have you include classes12.jar/zip, xsu12.jar in your classpath?(assume using JDK 1.2.x)

Java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/xml/sql/query/OracleXMLQuery

Hello, all.
I get this error message:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/xml/sql/query/OracleXMLQuery
at oracle.xml.xsql.actions.XSQLQueryHandler.handleAction(Compiled Code) ...
when trying to view an xsql page with the jswdk 1.0.1 web server. (I have no problems when using Web-to-go)
Classpath includes:
C:\jdk1.1.8\lib\classes.zip;
C:\xsql\lib\oraclexsql.jar;
C:\xsql\lib\xmlparserv2.jar;
C:\xsql\lib\xsu111.jar;
C:\xsql\lib\classes111.zip;
C:\xsql\lib;
What could be the problem?

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Steven Muench ([email protected]):
Only thing I can think of is that maybe your server classpath is getting too long. I recall one of the Java Web Server releases having a classpath length limit that caused strange errors like this because that .jar files you thought were on your classpath were getting their path names truncated so the Java VM cannot find the JAR's.
Try putting xsu111.jar earlier in the list of JAR's and/or try shortening the classpath (perhaps by using SUBST'd drive letters or softlinks on Unix to shorten the path names).<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Putting the xsu11.jar file towards the start of the path did not help.
I have rewriten the entire bat file that creates the CLASSPATH and starts the server and things now seem to work. There must have been some error in the original bat file, that I just couldn't see.
Anyway - I thank you for your help.

Unable to load Oracle XML SQL utility

The following error appears for each java
class, when we attempt to load Oracle XML sql
utility into Oracle using the oraclexmlsqlload
script:
E.g.
Error while resolving class OracleXMLStore
ORA-00904: invalid column name
Does anyone know why we would receive this error?
Platform: Hp-UX 11.0
Oracle Version: 8.1.5.0
Background information:
The database was original created with the
compatible=8.0.5 set in the init.ora file, and
the creatation of java classes failed due to this,
so switched compatible to 8.1.0. Now after we
we adjusted the compatible setting and restarted
database, we started to receive the errors as
described above.

Murali,
Thank you, after I initialized Oracle's javavm
the errors disappeared.
The scripts were located under the javavm/install
directory.
Thanks again.
