Help - Inserting an XML document into a Oracle 8i Column (CLOB Type)

Hi JavaGurus,
I am looking for a simple java code which will take my XML document as input and insert the same into a Oracle 8i database's column which is of type CLOB.
Insert statement won't work and I can not use SQL Loader.
Any one?
JK

Maybe you can adapt some of the code in Oracle's "LOB Datatype" example, which is a complete working program that stores and retrieves BLOBs and CLOBs.

Exception when inserting a XML document into database

Hello.
I'm trying to insert the content of a XML document into a database. The problem consists on the exception that is raised when a FK in the XML is not in the database as a PK
How can i catch these exceptions and continuing inserting the rest of the data
Thanks in advance ...

I really hope for you this wasn't a production database, as mentioned in the URL, it has been some years ago for me fiddling around this which was btw a supported metalink workaround ONCE (during my Oracle 7 days), but now, I wouldn't be surprised if you now have mixed NLS content in your tables/database and more or less "corrupted" your content.
The initial issue was probably a client one.
BTW
I actually hope it was a production database, maybe then you would learn that way, that you SHOULD NEVER EVER UPDATE DATABASE BASE TABLES directly...
...unless (the only exception) you want to learn something about the internals and don't care that your TEST database gets corrupted....

How to insert one XML document into another

Hi,
I've been working on a simple CMS.
There is a main template that is just a HTML page. The main template has a few extra 'module' tags that indicates places where individual modules have to be placed.
main template: template.xml
<html>
<body>
<div>
<module id="centre"/>
</div>
</body>
</html>module template: module_centre.xml
<div>
<a>This is a MODULE and it may be much more complex</a>
<div>My application has to detect every 'module' tag from the template.xml and insert there XML content from a proper module template.
The result file has to be generated dynamically on a request. The structures of 'modules' can be only defined in module_*.xml files.
The expected result
<html>
<body>
    <div>
        <div>
            <a>This is a MODULE and it may be much more complex</a>
        <div>
    </div>
</body>
</html>What's the best practice do solve this case?
Pawel

I think I've came up with a better solution.

Examples of hwo to insert an XML file into a field which is of type CLOB

I am trying to use the following command, but it does not work, due to a type issue, anyone have another example?
INSERT INTO TEST VALUES (xmltype(bfilename('c:\', 'c:\test.xml') , nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')));

I get the following error, probably means the file referenced is not available...
SQL Error: ORA-22806: not an object or REF
22806. 00000 - "not an object or REF"
*Cause: An attempt was made to extract an attribute from an item that is
neither an object nor a REF.
*Action: Use an object type or REF type item and retry the operation.

XML document into multiple tables

How to insert a xml document into multiple tables. Eg. Purchase Order having multiple line items. I have to insert xml document into Parent as well as child with different sets of columns.

I created the tables using the create_ch14_tables.sql. I call it using java -classpath .;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\xmlparserv2.jar;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\classes12.zip;C:\commerceone\xpc\lib\xsu12.jar XMLLoader -file deptempdepend.xml -connName default -transform deptempdepend.xsl. The code doesn't seem to like the "<xsl:for-each select="Department">" tags. If I remove them, the insDoc.getDocumentElement().getFirstChild() will find the element, but it still doesn't insert anything into the database.
Thank You,
Dave

Loading a XML-document into tables

Hi,
I have created a view for the tables below.
Table Book with columns:
- Book_ID
- Book_Name
- Ref_To_Price ( -> is a reference to Table Price (Price_ID))
Table Price with columns:
- Price_ID
- Price_DM
SQL-Syntax:
"create view Bookprice as select Book_ID, Book_Name, Ref_To_Price, Price_ID, Price_DM from Book, Price where Ref_To_Price = Price_ID; "
XML-Document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<!DOCTYPE ANWENDUNGEN SYSTEM "file:/E:/book.dtd">

<ROOTDOC>
<ROW>
<BOOK_ID>66-77</BOOK_ID>
<BOOK_NAME>JavaScript</BOOK_NAME>
<REF_TO_PRICE>12</REF_TO_PRICE>
<PRICE_ID>12</PRICE_ID>
<PRICE_DM>25.50DM</PPRICE_DM>
</ROW>
</ROOTDOC>
If I use the XML SQL Utility to insert the XML-Document, the following error message came up:
" Exception in thread "main" oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01776: cannot modify more than one base table through a join view "
Can anyone help me, please ?
null

Hi,
This is a classic join view problem, where u cannot update two tables in one shot. The main problem is that ur two tables are not normalized correctly. Why can't they be in just one table?
OK, if that is not possible, then the best way out is to create a simple INSTEAD OF trigger on the view which will insert correclty,
e.g.
CREATE TRIGGER bookprice_tr INSTEAD OF INSERT ON Bookprice FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
insert into Book values (:NEW.Book_id,
:NEW.Book_name, :NEW.Ref_to_Price);
insert into Price
values(:NEW.Price_ID, :NEW.Price_DM);
END;
Hope this helps,

Help inserting a flash video into my web page

Hello!
I'd love some help inserting a flash video into my web page. My web page is hosted by Viviti, templated, and edited online. I can add html to it, and I have the html source for my flash video. I also have uploaded the flash file to the server. Since I am very html illiterate, though, I need some help rewriting the html script so it can be published. There are two problems- firstly, no 'headers' or 'body' allowed in the script- these are already a part of the template. Secondly, I don't know how to rewrite it to refer to the uploaded files. It's also imperative that the full screen mode functions. I've pasted the source code for the flash video here. Please help!!!
Thanks!

What you basically need to do is copy the sections of content from the code you show into the template (assuming the template already provides the <head> and <body> sections of the page. So in the head section of what you show, take everything starting with...
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
all the way down thru...
</script>
, inclusive (in the head section only), and paste that into the head section of your template.
Similarly, take everything that lies between the <body> ... </body> tags (exclusive of the body tags) and paste it into the body section of your template wherever you plan to display the Flash file.

How to ftp XML document into a XML type which is not created by itself.

Hi,
1.
I have a table call SNPLEX_DESIGN which is created automaticly when I register a snplex_design.xsd XML schema.( Oracle creates it through the xdb:defaultTable="SNPLEX_DESIGN attribute). and it is created using SNPLEX user account.
2.
I also created a folder (resource) call /home/SNPLEX/Orders. which is used to hold all the incoming XML document.
3.
I created another user account call SNPLEX_APP, which is the only user account allowed to FTP XML document into /home/SNPLEX/Orders folder.
Isuues,
If I login as SNPLEX user, I can ftp XML document into the folder and TABLE (the file size = 0). But If I login as SNPLEX_APP user account, I can only ftp XML document into the folder, but Oracle doesn't store the document into the table( becuase the files size shows a number).
I have granted all the ACL privileges on the /home/SNPEX/Orders folder to SNPLEX_APP hrough OEM.
DO I miss anything. Any helps will be great appreciated. Resolve this issues is very import to us, sicne we are on a stage to roll system into production.
Regards,
Jinsen

IN order for a registered schema to be available to other users the schema must be registered as a GLOBAL, rather than a LOCAL Schema. This is controlled by the third agument passed to registerSChema, and the default is local. Note that you will also need to explicity grant appropriate permissions on any tables created by the schema registration process to other users who will be loading or reading data from these tables.

Loading XML Document into Structured Storage

HI Everybody,
I am confronted with a BUG in Oracle which is being fixed but will last a long time. I have a relatively complex Schema with manifold includes, imports and inheritances which I can register successfully. The object-relational table is also generated. But loading the instance document with INSERT INTO... fails due to severe internal error. I have not yet tried SQL*Loader, however.
Please, does anyone know a safe alternative method to parse and load? Structured storage is mandatory because I need to retrieve individual elements and attributes. Instance documents are big, ca. 20 MB.
Thanks, regards

To load an XML document into 40 tables

How do I load a large XML document into 40 tables. Most of the exmaples, I see only load one table into the Orcale database?

From the above document:
Storing XML Data Across Tables
Question
Can XML- SQL Utility store XML data across tables?
Answer
Currently XML-SQL Utility (XSU) can only store to a single table. It maps a canonical representation of an XML document into any table/view. But of course there is a way to store XML with the XSU across table. One can do this using XSLT to transform any document into multiple documents and insert them separately. Another way is to define views over multiple tables (object views if needed) and then do the inserts ... into the view. If the view is inherently non-updatable (because of complex joins, ...), then one can use INSTEAD-OF triggers over the views to do the inserts.
-- I've tried this, works fine.

How to insert a PDF document into a Word file?

I'm using Acrobat Standard 9 and Microsoft Word 2010 and I'm unable to insert a PDF document into a Word file. Operating system is Windows 7 Enterprize. Can someone help?

Thanks for the reply, Bill.
Yes, let me elaborate further:
I have a four page document in WORD with instructions. Examples of the instructions are in PDF files. I want to insert each PDF example next to or below each line item in WORD.The PDF will open when clicking on the icon without having a hyperlink attached to it.

Can I append an XML Document into another?

I have a large xml document which I open into coldfusion (mx
7), and then a smaller group of files that are opened into thier
own xml objects. After some customization of xml text values, I
want to append the smaller xml documents into the larger document
at specific positions within the document tree.
I have the code that I thought would do this, using an
arrayappend function, but what happens is that only the root
element of the smaller (inserted) xml document is placed into the
main document.
Is this possible, or do I need to modify the code so that the
entire tree of xml data that I am appending is created on the
fly?

Personally I do this with XSLT.

create directory object DIR_TEMP on the database pointing to the physical path where your xml files are available.
Note the path should be on the database server and not on the client and also your files should be present on the database server and not client for this to work.
