Creating new XML Db Web Service

Question

Hello All,
I have to create a new XML DB webservice. I did follow the below oracle documentation and could create the service. But when I tired to run the XQUERY, to get the information about the service I just added,
1) I could see only part of the output.
2) I need to add this output to "xdbconfig.xml". But I dont see this file on my database server.
I am sure that the XDB is configured on this database. I do see following lines in alertlog, when we bounced the database recently, which confirms the XDB is configured.

XDB installed.
XDB initialized.
Tue Nov 29 17:53:43 2011
Not sure what happened to the xdbconfig.xml. Please see below command I used to create Web Service and XQUERY.
DECLARE
SERVLET_NAME VARCHAR2(32) := 'WDD_XML';
BEGIN
DBMS_XDB.deleteServletMapping(SERVLET_NAME);
DBMS_XDB.deleteServlet(SERVLET_NAME);
DBMS_XDB.addServlet(NAME => SERVLET_NAME,
LANGUAGE => 'C',
DISPNAME => 'Oracle Query Web Service',
DESCRIPT => 'Servlet for issuing queries as a Web Service',
SCHEMA => 'XDB');
DBMS_XDB.addServletSecRole(SERVNAME => SERVLET_NAME,
ROLENAME => 'XDB_WEBSERVICES',
ROLELINK => 'XDB_WEBSERVICES');
DBMS_XDB.addServletMapping(PATTERN => '/WDD_XML/*',
NAME => SERVLET_NAME);
END;
XQUERY declare default element namespace "http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/xdbconfig.xsd";
for $doc in fn:doc("/xdbconfig.xml")/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/httpconfig/
webappconfig/servletconfig/servlet-list/servlet[servlet-name='WDD_XML']
return $doc

Answer 1

Hi,
2) I need to add this output to "xdbconfig.xml". But I dont see this file on my database server.It's located at the root of the XML DB repository, in the database.
You don't edit it directly.
The truncated output is an SQL*Plus issue, most likely.
I guess you have something like this :
SQL> XQUERY declare default element namespace "http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/xdbconfig.xsd"; (: :)
  2         for $doc in fn:doc("/xdbconfig.xml")/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/httpconfig/
  3          webappconfig/servletconfig/servlet-list/servlet[servlet-name='orawsv']
  4         return $doc
  5  /
Result Sequence
<servlet xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/xdbconfig.xsd">
  <servlet-name>orawYou need to set the LONG parameter to a sufficient amount first :
SQL> set long 500
SQL> set pagesize 100
SQL> XQUERY declare default element namespace "http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb/xdbconfig.xsd"; (: :)
  2         for $doc in fn:doc("/xdbconfig.xml")/xdbconfig/sysconfig/protocolconfig/httpconfig/
  3          webappconfig/servletconfig/servlet-list/servlet[servlet-name='orawsv']
  4         return $doc
  5  /
Result Sequence
