XML Data Server and model help

All,
I have the following files
1) travel.dtd
2) travel.xml.
I've set up a XML data server with JDBC driver com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.xml.SnpsXmlDriver and URL = jdbc:snps:xml?d=c:/XML/travel.dtd. I have created a model in designer and have successfully reversed the datastores generated from the dtd.
The travel.xml file has data populated within it, but when I right click on the datastores, there is nothing displayed. This makes sense because the xml server is configured to point at the .dtd. Do I need to change my topology connection to connect to the xml document as opposed to the dtd. Can someone tell me what i'm missing?
thanks for your help.

Since its not displaying anything as you are saying you just change the property to "f" and check.
Example
jdbc:snps:xml?f=/xml/myxml.xml&d=/xml/myxcd.xsd&s=MYSCHEMANAME
("s=MYSCHEMANAME": This schema will be selected when creating the physical schema under the XML data server.)
Hope it helps.
Thanks

  • XML Data Server Problem

    I am trying to setup an XML data server and can't get passed the error: java.sql.SQLException: Could not generate the DTD because the file could not be created. Verify that you have write permission in the directory.
    I have placed my xml file in the odi\demo directory where the sample files are and it doesn't seem to help. Here is the url I'm using: jdbc:snps:xml?f=../demo/xml/sample-incident-report1.xml
    This url does not give the errors and connects w/o a problem: jdbc:snps:xml?f=../demo/xml/salesorg.xml
    Same directory, one gives the error and one does not.
    Thanks for any help.

    It seems that anything a little complex causes this error. I've tested with relatively flat xml documents and don't encounter the problem.

  • XML Data Server Trouble

    I Re: New ODI User having trouble creating an XML Data Source... a couple of weeks ago regarding some troubles I've been having inserting an XML Data Server in the Topology Manager.

    This gives me a "Successful Connection", however when I try to add a New Model and Reverse it, it does not generate any data. (Sometimes this gives me an error, other times it seems to "work" but generates no data/tables).

    This gives me the following error: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1
    Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? I even tried following Sai Praneeth's example (from my Re: New ODI User having trouble creating an XML Data Source... thread) with his exact simple xml file, and that works fine. Is there something wrong with my XSD file? ANY help would be appreciated, as I'm completely lost. Thank you.

    I have some Interface Mapping questions I was hoping someone could help me with. As you know, my source is an XML File and my target is an OracleDB. I'll start with the "EFFECTIVEDATE" field which was automatically mapped when I added the Source and Target Datastores. As I previously mentioned, this caused an error "Target Column EFFECTIVEDATE: Data may be truncated: the target Column is smaller than the source Column". After looking further into it, would the problem be that the "EFFECTIVEDATE" datatype in the XML is "DATETIME" whereas the "EFFECTIVEDATE" datatype in the database is "TIMESTAMP"? If so, what would be the fix for this? Could I convert it in the Implemenation Mapping like so? -
    CONVERT(MONEY.EFFECTIVEDATE,TIMESTAMP)
    Would using that in the Implementation simply do the trick?
    Anyway, moving onto some of the other TARGET fields...
    -ACTIVITYGUID
    This should be an automatically generated new GUID value. How could I implement this into the Implementation?
    -TRANSACTIONGUID
    I'll need to query some of the other tables in the database in order to get this value. Is this allowed in the Implemenation? Do I have to add said tables to the target somehow? Can I just query the other tables in the Implementation field using normal select statements, etc.? I'm a bit confused on how this would work...
    -TYPECODE
    This needs to be a fixed value of '01'. How do I simply do that in the Implementation?
    The other fields will all be implemented similar to the above so those are the main questions I have for now. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Create jms queue xml data server

    Hi,
    What's the difference between jms queue and jms queue xml data servers and how to create jms queue xml data server.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    JMS messages can principally be processed by Oracle Data Integrator in two formats:
    - JMS Messages: containers for rows of data, handled through JMS Queue/JMS Topic Technologies. With JMS Queue/JMS Topic technologies, each JMS destination is defined similarly to a flat file datastore. Each message in the destination is a record in the datastore.
    - XML Messages: containers for XML files, handled through JMS XML Queue/JMS XML Topic Technologies. With JMS XML Queue/JMS XML Topic technologies, each messages payload contains a complete XML data structure. This structure is mapped into a relational schema (XML Schema) which appears as a model. This use the Oracle DI Driver for XML (see the driver documentation in Oracle DI documentation).
    Find below a step by step creation process for such a destination:
    1. Data Server
    To create a JMS XML Queue data server, you declare a simple JNDI connection. The only JMS XML specific information is added to the URL. This information defines the XML file format.
    The JNDI URL should be : <JMS_RESOURCE>?d=<DTD_FILE>&f=<XML_FILE>&s=<SCHEMA>&JMS_DESTINATION=<JMS_DESTINATION_NAME>
    - JMS_RESOURCE: JNDI resource corresponding to your JMS queue that will contain the XML payload. You would specify this URL if you were managing normal JMS messages.
    - DTD_FILE: path to a DTD file that describes the XML structure. Mandatory if the parameter XML_FILE is omitted.
    - XML_FILE: path to the XML file with a structure similar to the expected XML messages. Mandatory if the DTD_FILE parameter is omitted.
    - SCHEMA: schema name that will contain the XML structure. This value must match the one set for the physical schema attached to this data server. This parameter is mandatory.
    - JMS_DESTINATION_NAME: name of the JMS queue or topic. This parameter is mandatory.
    2. Schema
    Creation is straightforward: In the Schema (Schema) and Schema (Work Schema), enter the name of the <SCHEMA> defined in the data server JNDI URL.
    3. Model
    Use standard reverse-engineering. As the Oracle DI Driver for XML is used the XML structure will be reversed as a relational structure.

    RK,
    With no details of how you configured the XML server, what were the parameters used in the configuration for using external database, etc, I dont know how much can someone help you.
    This is an Oracle error, so a few things that could be problematic with your "big" xml -
    1.) An element name could be of length > 30 characters (Oracle table name length limit is 30)
    2.) There are some special characters in the element name
    3.) Element name begins with a Number
    4.) Element name is an Oracle reserved word.
    This list can go on.

  • Problem with a XML Data Server

    Hello,
    I am facing a problem in defining the data server for an XML File.
    This Xml File is well build and I can open it with IE.
    In this file I have a namespace define.
    I define the url driver as following : jdbc:snps:xml?f=C:/Temp/dossiers_suisse.xml&s=XML_DOS_HAB_S
    but I always have the following error message :
    java.sql.SQLException: The model generated by the model mapper was not accepted by a validator: Modèle non accepté: Namespace not found:
    When I remove the namespace of the xml file the test works well.
    I was searching for the driver documentation but I just find few informations on the webhelp.
    Maybe there is a parameter to pass to the Driver URL to define the namespace but there is not in the web help.
    So if someone know how to do with this sort of file ?
    Or if someone know where I can find the real documentation for this driver ?

  • XML Data Sets and IE8

    I have an issue with Spry XML Data sets that is driving me nuts.
    The setup is quite straightforward. I have a PHP script which submits a SOAP request, the result of which is pure XML. I echo this XML out as the result of the script.
    I have another page on which is one or more Spry XML Data Sets. These data sets use the previous script as the source. I know this works OK because when i 'Get Schema' in the XML dataset dialog in Dreamweaver, the schema is properly displayed. This page also has a Spry Table on it, which uses the dataset as the source. There is nothing else on the page at all.
    Now, when I preview this page in Firefox, Chrome, Opera or Safari, it displays fine. However, when I preview it in IE, the table briefly flashes up then disappears. A quick look at the source of the page shows the HTML all laid out very licely, but the Spry fields still show with their placeholders (e.g. {Balance}) instead of the actual value. Im left with a totally blank page in IE.
    I have tried running in compatibility mode with no effect. I found a posting on Experts Exchange (yuk!) where someone else was having the problem but this turned out to bedue to badly formed XML. I have run my XML though XMLSpy and several online validators and it checks out every time.
    Any ideas? I am slowly losing the will to live....
    Si

    Hi,
    I'm trying to debug the same problem...I think.The pages work in firefox on PC & MAC but stop with the {data_name} in IE on both PC & MAC.
    I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 with ADDT. I've read the posts about adding the content-type to my file that ADDT created for me just before the XMLExport, so I've added that to the get_menu_1_info.php file (see lines 42-46). I've peeked into the XMLExport.class.php file to see that the Execute function is supposedly already sending the header info (see line 223). But I'm not getting the data into IE.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    here's where you can see the page:
    https://hbblearning.org/Takv3uMYsX7cVK5eRo/newcomer_info.html
    here's where I generate the xml file to be consumed:

    I've attached the files for you to see.

  • XML data connection and XML submit button

    Hi Guys,
    another one that 'should' be straight forward.  I have an xml data connection that is used ot pull in event details (name, location, cost etc) that allows you to select various events, then fill in your contact details and then submit the form.  I need to have the form submit with the data that the user entered into the form as well as their selection of event.  When I set up the email submit button, the XML file attached to the email is actually the XML file that the form pulls the event details from not the data that the user has entered into the form.  Again I reckon this one should be straight forwad to fix, seems like a fairly normal way to operate, but I just cant find a solution.  please help

    >We are letting user know that u have thrown email to someone and we also let user know how is going to contact them.
    This is good, but you cannot stop the email from opening and the user
    needing to send it. This is, as I said, fundamental to security and
    cannot be switched off.
    >I tried using HTTP request but it still opening email option to send mail.
    This suggests you did not do it right, because when you use http, no
    mail is sent locally. Can you describe what you do?
    >
    >I want to do the way we do in the html page using javascript to set action event at click event and send data to specified email id.
    HTML cannot silently send an email either.
    Perhaps you could outline what sort of HTML JavaScript you use, so
    that we can suggest an equivalent if there is one.

  • How to encrypt/decrypt xml data into, and then out of IDS?

    Hi,
    How would we encrypt NPPI information being passed from an unencrypted xml through IDS, and then decrypt it on exit prior to Gendata.
    The IDS SDK gave a reference to IDSEncryptionRule(), but insufficient examples of implementation.
    It could be something like a single tag element, or even the entire xml, it's just not clear how to make it happen using native IDS methods.
    Any thoughts or help to implement this security measure would be most welcome!
    Thanks so much!

    Hi there,
    You would need to write a custom IDS rule that implements this function. You can refer to the IDS SDK book for info on writing a custom rule. IDSEncryptionRule does operations based on the request state received. Normally when an IDS rule is executed, the rules in the request type definition are executed with the RUN_FORWARD request state. Then they are executed with the RUN_REVERSE request state. An example of why this model is used would be the ATCReceiveFile. On RUN_FOWARD, it writes the contents of file segments in a message to a temporary file. Subsequent rules execute. Then on the RUN_REVERSE, the ATCReceiveFile does clean up routines to remove the temporary file.
    So, armed with that knowledge, you can use the IDSEncryptionrule to perform on RUN_FORWARD (decrypt message variables for subsequent processing by Documaker) and then on RUN_REVERSE (encrypt message variables to send back to the client).
    It should be apparent at this point that you need to use an encryption/decryption mechanism with the IDS client otherwise you won't be able to prepare the message to send or read the response. On the client side there are functions - consult the examples included in the IDS SDK (DSI_DSK in the installer package).
