How to configure crystal report xml file as data source in BOE in Solaris?

Hi,
How to configure crystal reports from xml file as data source in Solaris? I didn't find any suitable driver for xml / excel files for sun solaris.

And the same way excel file as data source for crystal report.
Thanks

Hi Don thanks for the reply,
In windows environment I donot have any problem when creating crystal report from Xml file and Excel file. After creating reports when I publish those into boe server in solaris, getting connection failed error.
My solaris BOE server doent have any network connection with windows machines. So i have to place the files in solaris server.
Below the steps what I tried:
1. Created crystal reports from cr designer in windows using ADO.Net(xml) and in another try with Xml webservices drivers. Reports works well as it should.
2. Saved in BOE repository in Solaris server from crystal reports and changed database configuration settings as:
    -Used custom database logon information and specified cr_xml as custom driver.
    -Chnaged database path to file directory path according to solaris server file path </app/../../>
    -tried table prefix also
    - Selected radio button use same database logon as when report is run saved.
My environment :
SAP BOXI3.1 sp3
crystal reports 2008 sp3
SunOS
Cr developing in windows 7.
For Excel I tried with ODBC in windows but I can't find any ODBC or JDBC drivers for Excel in solaris.
Any help to solve my issues

Hello
For using FTP function in LabVIEW, I recommend you to check this document: FTP Basics
Also, take a look at FTP Browser.vi, which is available at the Example Finder.
To edit a XML file, try to use VIs in XML palette. Maybe Write to XML.vi helps you.
Post your current VI if possible.

How to use properties file

Hi,
I want to use properties file in my application. I have kept properties file inside a directory called properties which is inside myProject(which is the parent directory of my project) i.e "myProject/properties".
My java file where i want to call this properties file is inside the myProject/WEB-INF/src/java.
How can i call the properties file from myProject/WEB-INF/src/java/PropertyReader.java
I wrote java program in myProject/WEB-INF/src/java/PropertyReader.java like:::::
ResourceBundle resBun = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Test", Locale.getDefault()); // Test.properties is inside myProject/properties
resBun..getString("name");
After running the program i am getting the following errors:::::
Exception in thread "main" java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name Test, locale en_US
at java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.java:836)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:805)
at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:576)
at PropertiesReader.main(PropertiesReader.java:4)
What is the issue? How to use properties file?
Waiting for reply.
Thanks

Still getting same exception. As you explained i tried like the below:::
1. I am using ant as build tool.
2. My properties file is for database configuration
My properties file is::
database.properties (inside myProject/properties)
JDBCDriver=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
JDBCConnectionURL=jdbc:mysql://pmdbmysql:3306/bandwidthshaper?user=admin&password=admin
My java package structure is
WEB-INF/src/java
WEB-INF/src/classes
For build WEB-INF is the base directory and build.xml is inside the src directory
In my build.xml i wrote the following lines for compilation::
          <target name="compile" >
               <javac srcdir="src" destdir="src/classes" debug="true" debuglevel="lines,vars,source">
                    <classpath refid="class.path"/>
               </javac>
<copy todir = "src/classes" >
<fileset dir = "../properties" />
</copy>
               <jar jarfile="lib/${project.jar.file}" basedir="src/classes"/>
          </target>
I am copying properties file to the classes directory.
Now in java file which is inside /WEB-INF/src/java, I wrote::
try {
Properties programProps = new Properties();
InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/database.properties");
if(is == null)
throw new IllegalStateException("Properties file missing ");
programProps.load(is);
System.out.println("driver name::::::: "+programProps.getProperty("JDBCDriver"));
is.close();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
After compilation in my classes directory i am getting database.properties file and my java file with package.
At the time of running i am getting "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Properties file missing"
Now tell me where is the fault. Why again i am getting exception.
Thanks

How to generate XML file based on XSD in SSIS

please provide step by step process to create xml based on XSD in SSIS

Hi hemasankar,
In SQL Server Integrated Services, we can generate XML Schema (XSD) file based on a XML file with XML Source Editor. If we want to generate XML file based on a XSD file, we can use Generate Sample XML feature in Visual Studio. For more details, please refer
to the following steps:
Click on "XML Schema Explorer" or 'Use the XML Schema Explorer...' to open XML Schema Explorer in Visual Studio.
If your Schema file is valid and you are having elements, right-click on element and click on "Generate Sample XML", this functionality generates XML file in temp folder and open ups in the XML Editor.
The following two document about how to generate XML file based on a XSD file are for your reference:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd489258.aspx
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/400016/Generate-Sample-XML-from-XSD
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

You never delete a Time Machine backup by dragging it to the Trash. You are supposed to use the TM application to manage the backups. What you will need to do now is to simply erase the drive using Disk Utility.

Creation of External table by using XML files.

I am in the process of loading of XML file data into the database table. I want to use the External Table feature for this loading. Though we have the external table feature with Plain/text file, is there any process of XML file data loading into the Database table by using External table?

Using XML as a Data Source

In http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10540/datasource.htm#CHDBCAIJ it states you can use XML as your data source and mentions...
URLs can include repository or session variables, providing support for HTTP data sources that accept user IDs and passwords embedded in the URL. For example:
http://somewebserver/cgi.pl?userid=valueof(session_variable1)&password=valueof(session_variable2)
I'm trying to pass this:
http://somewebserver/cgi.pl?userid=valueof(NQ_SESSION.USER)
but when I try that I can see in my web server logs that the content of the userid variable is 'valueof(NQ_SESSION.USER)' so it's not passing the results to the web server, just the text. Any ideas what's going on? Is my syntax correct? Thanks!

Hey,
There are a few things to look at when using session and repository variables within the RPD.
One of the first documents you need to reference is the "What is the Syntax for Referencing Variable?" section within the OBI documentation. In addition look at this section on how to use variables in the RPD, http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10540/variables.htm#BIEMG3104
Basically you are trying to use NQ_SESSION.USER which is the syntax for trying to show the user name is Presentation Services. Of course you can see this in your web server logs because that is the correct syntax for presentation services web tier but not the RPD where you define your XML Source.
You need to try either use VALUEOF("USER") or you are simply forgeting to put the syntax surrounded by single-quotes like, http://somewebserver/cgi.pl?userid='valueof(NQ_SESSION.USER)' to pull the system session variable into the XML URL as needed.
Try those options and let me know if that works.
Please mark this as the correct answer or helpful.
Cheers,
Christian

HOw to update XML file residing in DAM by component JSP in run-time?

i have made a component which reads xml file residing in DAM.
Content Author can fill some values in dialog of this component, as soon as author provide the values,i have to update these values in XML file and component reloadsby reading the updated xml file.
i am trying to achieve this by making object of XML file and giving it's path., but i ma unable to access the XML file.
Can anyone help me out to how to update XML file by component JSP in run-time?

Now the changed data must be exported back into the XML file, meaning that the content of certain elements must be updated. How can this be done with XSLT?
XSLT approach: check these online tutorial
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/08/02/xslt/index.html
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/06/07/transforming/index.html
ABAP approach:
for example you have the xml (original) in a string called say xml_out .
data: l_xml type ref to cl_xml_document ,
        node type ref to if_ixml_node .
create object l_xml.
call method l_xml->parse_string
exporting
    stream = xml_out.
node = l_xml->find_node(
    name   = 'IDENTITY'
   ROOT   = ROOT
l_xml->set_attribute(
    name    = 'Name'
    value   = 'Charles'
    node    = node
(the above example reads the element IDENTITY and sets attribute name/value to the same)
like wise you can add new elements starting from IDENTITY using various methods available in class CL_XML_DOCUMENT
so how do I access the XML file in order to update it?
you have already read this XML into a ABAP variable right?
Sorry couldnt understand your whole process, why do you need to read local XML file?

How to read xml file as shown below.

Hello,
I am using flash builder 4 and currently working on implementing AIR application.
I need to read xml file data.

<key>Postno</key>
<integer>20</integer>
<key>deskname</key>
<string>flex</string>
<key>empid</key>
<integer>25</integer>
<key>projectname</key>
<string>abc</string>
</node>
Here i have xml file in form of key value pair. <key> node shows name of the key and after that <integer> or <string> node are the value for that specific key.
if i select node.key then it shows me all the keys. and from that i cant make out what is the value for key ID.
Is there any way to take first node and then second. i mean first i ll take value of key and store it into some arraycollection. and then value will be stored.
Any help is appreciated.. Looking for positive reply.
Thanks
