Help Install XSQL servlet on OAS 4.0.8.1

We are having difficulties installing XSQL Servlet on our Oracle Application Server (4.0.8.1). Is there any documentation on how to complete this installation?
Thanks in advance

Bugs in 4.0.8.1 make running the XSQL Servlet unreliable with that release.
I'd suggest trying the 4.0.8.2 release or using a combination of Apache + JServ to work with XSQL Servlet.
Thanks.

How To Install XSQL Servlet

I am an ORACLE DBA for Schlumberger/GeoQuest. I am trying to evaluate the the use of XML with ORACLE functionality for our department.
When installing the product following the instruction, it fails, which is understandable. Because the xsql-wtg.bat file has the following two params hardcoded:
set JAVA=J:\java1.2\jre\bin\java.exe
set XSQL_HOME=C:\xsql
I know that I do not have such path on my machine at all. The document claims that the Web-to-go is bundled with software download. I assume that the file "java.exe" is some where under the downloaded area. Or do I miss something? What should I do to get it going? Do I have to install a web server like OAS or Apache or Web-to-go? Or do I have to install Jre1.2 somewhere?
Thanks for your help,
Yue Wang

The xsql-wtg.bat file has the comments:
REM ----------------------------------------------
REM Set the 'JAVA' variable equal to the full path
REM of your Java executable.
REM ----------------------------------------------
So you'll need to set the 'JAVA' variable
equal to the full path of your Java executable.
you'll need a Java JDK 1.1.8 or 1.2.2
installed to run it.

Can not make XSQL servlet running under Jrun 3.1! need help

Hi,
I tried to run Oracle XSQL servlet under JRun 3.1,I did servlet mapping, such as
<servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.xsql</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I set classpath for XSQL related library such as oraclexsql.jar, xmlparserv2.jar,etc, I believe everything is setup correctly, however when I invoke .xsql page, I did not get data instead of getting sql text!, here is my xsql file content:
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="Filter.xsl"?>
<page connection="reports_8i" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
     <dataform target="reportFilter.jsp" submit="Go">
<xsql:set-session-param name="userid" value="{@userid}" ignore-empty-value="no"/>
     <xsql:include-param name="userid"/>
     <xsql:set-session-param name="bu_id" value="{@bu_id}" ignore-empty-value="no"/>
     <xsql:include-param name="bu_id"/>
     <xsql:set-session-param name="client_id" value="{@client_id}" ignore-empty-value="no"/>
     <xsql:include-param name="client_id"/>
     <item type="list" name="targetPage" label="Available Reports">
     <xsql:ref-cursor-function bind-params="userid">
               reports_generation.getReportList(?)
          </xsql:ref-cursor-function>
          </item>
     </dataform>
</page>
What I got when I invoked this page is reports_generation.getReportList(?)!!
It seems that JRun 3.1 did not understand xsql syntax, it means it can not find XSQL servlet related libraries, come on, I did set classpath.
Does anyone has this experience to help me out? Highly appreicate you in advance.
Thanks.

i think i solved this problem by specifying the full path to javac...
what must i do to avoid this?

How to install oracle xsql servlet on bea weblogic 5.1

          Hi there,
          I tried to install oracles xsql servlet (1.0.4.1) on bea weblogic 5.1 without
          any success.
          in weblogic.properties I started with:
          weblogic.httpd.webApp.xsql=c:\\weblogic\\myserver\\servletclasses\\xsql
          And in this dir I have WEB-INF with the following web.xml:
          <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
          <!DOCTYPE web-app
          PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
          "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd">
          <web-app>
          <servlet>
          <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet</servlet-class>
          </servlet>
          <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>oracle-xsql-servlet</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern> *.xsql </url-pattern>
          </servlet-mapping>
          </web-app>
          So the xsql extension is mapped to the named servlet which is found in a jar file
          contained in subdirectory lib.
          The problem is that the general mapping of *.xsql extension to specified class
          does not work at all. And there are no errors...
          Application server just presents me with the content of the xsql file instead
          of executing servlet whith the xsql file as input.
          Any ideas??
          Thanx in advance.
          JK


What kind of problem do you have?
If it's not connected with JDBC, you'd better post your question
in webservices newsgroup.

At the moment I feel there is no way to do that. Youe have to
use Apache and Jserv if you really need it now.

Setting up the XSQL Servlet engine

I am trying to set up the XSQL servlet component of 9iAS. From what I read all of the necessary components are included in 9iAS, there is no need to download the XSQL servlet from technet. Is this true? I try to run the demo's (e.g. hello world) but am always getting a connection refused error. I edited the XSQLConfig.xml file to include the host, port and sid but still no luck.
I am at a loss. I have 8.1.7 SE database installed with JDBC drivers, 9iAS 1.0.2. Is this all I need or do I have to download something else.

Steven,
Thanks for responding. I am a DBA so I'm only 50% incompetent. The 9iAS version is 1.0.2.1.0 Solaris and the DB is 8i SE, right now on the same Solaris box. The Jserv and JSP demos on the initial install home page work fine and I was able to get Oracle Portal running etc. so I think the Server is working. When I check the installed products for the DB I see several JDBC drivers appear to be installed.
segmet from XSQLConfig.xml:
<connection name="demo">
<username>scott</username>
<password>tiger</password>
<dburl>jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.100.146.22:1521:NPGSDEV</dburl>
<driver>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</driver>
</connection>
I can connect scott/tiger@npgsdev in sqlplus as well as tnsping npgsdev and the port is 1521 so the tnslistener is up and running.
I can call up the demo page at: http://192.100.146.22:7777/xsql/java/xsql/index.html
but any attempt to run them gives:
Oracle XSQL Servlet Page Processor 1.0.0.0 (Production)
Oracle XSQL Servlet Page Processor 1.0.0.0 (Production)
XSQL-007: Cannot acquire a database connection to process page.
Io exception: Connection refused(DESCRIPTION=(TMP=)(VSNNUM=135294976)(ERR=12505)(ERROR_STACK=(ERROR=(CODE=12505)(EMFI=4))))
Any help would be greatly appreciated. -quinn

Unable to setup/mapping of XSQL Servlet

We have installed Apache web server with Tomcat Servlet engine. We have downloaded XDK 9i for Java and we have done the setup of Classpath in tomcat.bat.
When we try to run the XSQL file from the browser (IE5), it opens as a text file instead of running the query and converting into XML document.
We are facing the problem in servlet mapping since the file WEB-INF/web.xml is not found in the distribution whereas it is mentioned in the installation document it should be available.
Please help us on this.
Thanks

Hi!
I think your problem happens because you haven't told Tomcat what to do when a xsql file is invoked.
Respecting to this, I have the following lines in my web.xml file:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>
xsql
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
oracle.xml.xsql.XSQLServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>
-2147483646
</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>
xsql
</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>
/home/user/*.xsql
</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
I hope this helps!

Deploy Servlet to OAS 4

hiye guys,
Need help here, development environment = Oracle Jdeveloper 3.1 try to deploy servlet to OAS 4 (remote) ....how can it be done ?
I have tried deploy servlet locally ...OAS on my local machine and set physical path and so on ...thats easy
what if my developers doesnt have OAS installed and my OAS is on Solaris ? they wanted to deploy servlets remotely from their machine to OAS @ solaris server ...
needed help asap

kenneth

Hi Kenneth,
I'd recommend the developers simply deploy locally and copy the files over to your server.
Have they tried this? Have you run into any problems?
Is it a DBServlet? If so, have you seen the following documentation?:
CHoose Help | Help Topics
Then navigate to
User Guides
--Developing Applications
----Developing Web Applications
------Developing Java Servlets
--------Deploying Java Servlets
----------Deploying a Database Servlet to OAS
Hope this helps.

Avrom

## NEW XSQL Servlet 0.9.9.1 OUT TODAY ##

The new release of XSQL Pages and the XSQL Servlet is out today here on OTN. For complete information on what's new, and a much-improved "how to install" section, see:
http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml/xsql_servlet/htdocs/relnotes.htm
The brand-new, unified demo, on-line help system is also staged on the live server at:
http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml/demo/demo1.htm
and is included in the release. It's all built using XSQL Pages and XSLT stylesheets.
Lot's of new features and enhancements based squarely on all of YOUR feedback, here on the OTN XML Forum.
Keep the questions and suggestions coming.

Richard,
I have just applied patch to upgrade from Portal 3.0.9 to 3.0.9.8.1 (Patch applied to loginserver and portal schema) and the External Applications that were previously set up have gone from the portlet.
Does this relate to your note at the bottom:
"Minor issues with Bulk action. 1840420 CUSTOM WRITTEN EXTERNAL AUTH MODULE NEED TO BE UPDATED AFTER 3.0.9 UPGRADE SSOXOID.PKB DOESN'T LOAD.
External authentication modules that were written before 3.0.9 need to be updated after upgrading to 3.0.9. ssoauthx.pks is updated in 3.0.9 and contains additional routines that need to be implemented." ??
If I go to the "Login Server Administration" portlet and select the link "Administer External Applications" I get a list of 5 External Applications that have previously been set up.
If I go back to the Home Page and select "customize" on the "External Applications" portlet I get the message "Your Login Server administrator has not registered any external applications".
Does that mean I should just run 'ssoauthx.pks' & 'ssoxoid.pkb' or do I need to do something else ??
Thanks
Simo

Direction Needed to Get Started With XSQL Servlet

Hi, I am an ORACLE DBA. However, I am brand new to XML world. I tried to experiment and and understand the use of XSQL Servlet. I downloaded the software 1.0.0.0, and installed it on my PC, with the included Web-to-go. The installation seems to be OK, as I followed the instructions and twisted a little bit based on the intuition.
When I clicked on the Demo pages, it seemed to work.
The problem is, I want to understand the working of the XSQL Servlet. The only document I have is the Release Note of the software. It is very terse and seems to be for the ones who either worked on the previous release of the product or who knows the XML very well. I got lost in the reading of the document.
Is there some documents that will provide some Intro level tutorial or help? Where should I begin to the learning of the software?
Thanks for the help.

Hello,

landscapes and people.
Yes.
2) Which programs are needed for development?
Please list a few programs you feel are best for
Java Development as a whole. Links here would also
be wonderful.A compiler. An editor.

3) Are there any websites which go threw Java

needs or a beginner.There are several.

Xsql-servlet: can not find xsql-wtg.bat

hi,
i have unzipped the file xsqlservlet_v1.0.2.0.zip.
now i should start xsql-wtg.bat, but this file is not in the zip-file....
instruction in the application developers guide xml:
Running the xsql-wtg.bat script in the .\xsql directory.
i could doubleclick xsql.bat ..... ??
another problem is:
after starting a xsql-file i get an error message:
Oracle XDK Java 9.2.0.4.0 Production
XSQL-007: Cannot acquire a database connection to process page.
E/A-Exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
who can help me??
thanks a lot

These instructions are out of date. The WTG (Web To Go) server was part of early XSQL releases, but the latest 9.2.0.X releases that come with the XML Developer's Kit for Java no longer include a web server in the installation. You'll need to install the servlet into your favorite servlet engine to run it.
Full online doc for XSQL is here:
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/release2/appdev.920/a96621/adx09xsq.htm

Query handled OK on Oracle server but XSQL Servlet raises OracleXMLSQLException

After dropping and recreating certain object types, and then using ALTER TYPE on an object dependent on those object types, XSQL Servlet raises exception for a query that is handled fine in the Oracle Server itself (ie, in SQL*Plus) as in the following test case:
create or replace type o_object_inner as object( char1 char(1) )
create or replace type n_nested_table as table of o_object_inner
create or replace type o_object_outer as object (nNestedTab n_nested_table)
For above, the following query encounters no problems on Oracle Server or in XSQL servlet:
Select o_object_outer(NULL) as "theOuterObj" from dual
But then if object types are modified as follows:
drop type o_object_inner force
create or replace type o_object_inner as object( char1 char(1) ) --same as above
drop type n_nested_table force
create or replace type n_nested_table as table of o_object_inner --same as above
alter type o_object_outer compile
The above query now encounters no problems in SQL*Plus but generates exception in XSQL servlet as follows:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Internal Error: Unable to resolve name
More complex cases generated the above exception and/or the following exception:
oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: Internal Error: Invalid ADT attribute
Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!
Other info:
Oracle Server 8.1.7.3 on HP-UX
XDK 9.2.0.1 (Production) for Java on NT
JDBC/OCI8 drivers for NT (latest for 8.1.7)

Yes,
I changed most of the cursor functions to cast(multiset()). Sometimes i divided a big query into two or three queries (when there was cursor nested in a cursor). It was one day work for me. Don't forget to change the tags with ROW to ITEM in your xsl-stylesheets.

ANN: XSQL Servlet 0.9.8.6 Release Available

Oracle is excited to announce the 0.9.8.6 technology preview
release of Oracle XSQL Pages and the XSQL Servlet with major
new functionality.
-----------------[ Download Info ]-------------------
http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml/xsql_servlet/
Click on "Software" to Download
Click on "Release Notes" for Full Documentation
XSQL Pages are server-side XML templates that make it easy
to exploit the powerful combination of SQL, XML and XSLT to
prototype and deploy dynamic, data-powered sites and web
services.
The XSQL Servlet installs into your favorite Java Servlet
environment and works with your favorite relational database,
making it dead easy to:
-> Assemble XML "DataPages" from multiple SQL Query
Results (including full support for Oracle8i's
richly-structured XML Objects Views), local or remote
XML resources, Stored Procedure Calls, etc.
-> Transform the "DataPages" in the server using XSLT,
optionally using stylesheets that are appropriate to
the requesting client, including the ability to
let the client to the stylesheet processing for IE5
or other clients in the future that support this.
Our online support forum for XML is at:
http://technet.oracle.com/support/bboard/discussions.htm
The XSQL Servlet demos (included in the release) are
installed on Oracle's OTN site and can be tested from the
comfort of your browser before you download if you choose:
http://technet.oracle.com/tech/xml/demo/demo1.htm
This new 0.9.8.6 release includes...
More Documentation
==================
More extensive documentation and new tutorial material.
New Demos
=========
New and enhanced demos with additional notes describing key
points each demo is trying to illustrate.
New API's and JavaDoc
=====================
Programmatically process XSQL Pages from your own Java
programs using a new XSQLRequest object, as well as write
custom page "action handlers" with new JavaDoc and
example code.
New Features
============
<xsql:query>
The <query> element from previous releases is now part of
the xsql namespace and is referred to using the new
<xsql:query> syntax in your XSQL Page. A new section details
how to use <xsql:query> to produce XML query results with
nested structure.
<xsql:dml>
Do DML and call stored procedures anywhere you need to in
your XSQL Pages.
<xsql:stylesheet-param>
Use parametrized XSLT Stylesheets and set the stylesheet
parameter values from your XSQL Page.
<xsql:insert-request>
Automatically insert posted XML or HTML Form parameters into
the database.
<xsql:include-xml>
Include arbitrary XML resources at any point in your page by
relative or absolute URL.
<xsql:include-request-params>
Include key information like HTTP Parameters, Session
Variable values and Cookies into your XSQL Page for
addressing them in your stylesheet.
<xsql:include-xsql>
Include the results of one XSQL Page at any point inside
another. This allows sophisticated combinations of multiple
XML data sources and multiple XSLT transformations.
<xsql:include-owa>
Include the results of executing a stored procedure that
makes use of the Oracle Web Agent (OWA) packages inside the
database to generate XML.
<xsql:action>
Invoke a user-defined action handler, implemented in Java,
for executing custom logic and including custom XML
information into your XSQL Page.
null

That error message is outdated and should read:
Cannot find XSQLConfig.xml in your server-side classpath. The error is definitely that it's not finding XSQLConfig.xml on your classpath. The likely cause is that you did not add the directory:
./xsql/lib
to your CLASSPATH in the JRun Servlet Engine Java environment.
