Ora:getPreference inside Transformation

All,
BPEL 10.1.3.4
I declared a depl.descriptor variable in bpel and tried to access the value of this variable inside transformation using ora:getPreference. But when I invoked the bpel, the transformation got failed with the following stack

Please try to declare the namespace in XSLT for GetPreferences function. In case this deos not work, you can try below workaround,
1. Create a temporary variable.
2. Assign Value getPreferences values to temporary variable.
3. Pass this temporary variable as input to XLST and then assign this variable in XSLT.
Hope this will resolve your issue quickly.

Accessing ora:getpreference inside xslt map

Hi
I need to access preferences values of the BPEL Suitcase Descriptor using ora:getpreference inside xslt map. I tried but it dosent work in xslt. Could any one please advise as to what is the way to access preferences values from inside a xslt.
Thanks

is the bpws:getVariableData() function also not usable inside an XSL Mapper?
JDeveloper allows it. There is no error at compile and deploy times. It seens to be odd that those functions are there, but we cannot use them. Could any one explain this behavior?
I got the following error when trying to use ora:getPreference() or bpws:getVariableData():
(Error) Extension function namespace should start with 'http://www.oracle.com/XSL/Transform/java/
I need to call these functions to build a request from a variety of sources: process input, deployment descriptor preferences, variables, etc.... The real use case is more than one-to-one mapping/transformation.
If these functions are not usable inside an XSL Mapper, JDeveloper should not show them as available options.

BPEL Processes failing in function ora:getPreference('STRING')

Hi,
I am having a BPEL process which is sometimes failing while fetching value of ora:getPreference('STRING') in a copy operation, and sometimes it works fine (like today there are 3 instances out of whcih 2 are success and the first one failed).
The value of the preference is already defined in deployment descriptor.
I am using SOA 10.1.3.3.
Please help in this...
Greetings,
Ankit Chhabra

Hi,
To pass preference variables values in XSLT, create an element in one of the source schema of your XSLT.
Use an assign action before that transformation,and assigns the value of preference var to that newly created variable.
Use that variable value to map it to required target node.
Hope this helps.

Get Node value inside Transform activity using any function

<xsl:when test="\ns0:data = *+Value of Xml node(NODE)+*">
</xsl:when>
At value of XML node i want to put the value of one xml node. is there any function in transform to get the content of node.
Thanks

I got the solution
we can use variable inside transform and assign xpath value to that variable then we can use that variable inside test condtition
<xsl:variable name="name" select="xpath"/>
<xsl:when test="\ns0:data = $name">
</xsl:when>

Disable validation inside Transformer?

is there a way to turn off validation within the Transformer class? Our XSL uses document() to reference external XML files:
<xsl:value-of
   select="document($teamsched-resource-file)/schedule/event-metadat\a[@event-key = $event-id]/@start-date-time"/>where the external file DOCTYPE uses a relative (but invalid) SystemID DTD file path:
<!DOCTYPE schedule PUBLIC "-//XMLTEAM//DTD sportsml-core 1.0/EN" "dtds/sportsml\-core.dtd">and the transform gives the following on each call to document():
    file:///home/ticker/xsl/scoresxml.xsl; Line #394; Column #41;
    Can not load requested doc: /home/ticker/resources/l.nba.com/dtds/sportsml-core.dtd
    (No such file or directory)Is it possible to dig out the XMLReader (or whatever it is) from the Transformer and toggle it's validation?
We're using Java 1.4.2 and the apache Xalan classes.

That's an interesting hack (which one would think would be simpler to do!) but it's not the problem I have -- I do not want to disable the entity resolver in the DOM builder, I need to disable it in the Transformer ... and so far as I can tell, I can't get my hands on the SAXBuilder used inside the Transformer class to provide the XML parsing supporting the XSL document() method for importing external XML documents during a transform.
Or do I misunderstand the answer in that other thread? Is it actually possible to extract and modify, or replace, the SAXBuilder (or whatever it is) used with the Transformer?
Also, for the example given in that other thread, why do they not simply use SAXBuilder's setValidation(false)? When I do this for the builder used to create the Document class from an XML file, the DTD is completely ignored.

Deadlock ORA-00060 with Transformations

Hi everyone,
we are on SP 10 together wih Oracle 10.2.0.2.0. In our development system I made already some big test loads (~Mio entries) from Data Store to cube. As sometimes in 3.0B we get a self-deadlock because processes killed each other, but now it happens more often. The bad thing with such an error from a Data Store to cube, that there is no possibility to make a manual update so a restart is necessary.
Has anyone suffered the same? Any proposals others than too less data or use PSA and Update-rules?
My current solution is to set the data-package size so high that the load is done in one package, what is really not a good solution. Is there a possibility to reduce the paralellility to one at a cube load other than my method?
Best regards
Harald.

Hi Harald,
Kindly look into the following notes :
980555      ORA 600 [kdtdelrow-2] during insert with deadlock
1015152      ORA 600 [kdtdelrow-2] during insert in Oracle 10.2.0.2

hope this helps,

Passing Deployment Descriptor value to transformation - Important

All,
Version: 10.1.3.4
I have a requirement to get run time value and access it inside transformation (xslt). Hence I used deployment descriptor, but I'm stuck on how to access this value inside transformation. I tried ora:getPreference to use it inside Assign activity and successfully done this, but cudn't do the same inside transformation. Any pointers would be of great help.

Hi,
Ya, i'm looking for such doc. Can you please share it if you have?
I followed this (http://soacrux.blogspot.com/2010/08/passing-bpel-variable-contents-into.html) blog. For bpel 10g, is it mandatory to keep the XSLTParameters.xsd? If i use this xsd and create a variable of the xsd type, during deployment jdev throws an error
Error(64):
*[Error ORABPEL-10010]: unresolved element*
*[Description]: in line 64 of "D:\Application1\BPELProcess1\bpel\BPELProcess1.bpel", XML element "{http://schemas.oracle.com/service/bpel/common}parameters" of variable "Variable_3" is not defined.*
*[Potential fix]: Make sure the XML element "{http://schemas.oracle.com/service/bpel/common}parameters" is defined in one of WSDLs that are referenced by the deployment descriptor.*

Assign ora:getCompositeInstanceId() in the xsd element

I need to assign BPEL process id, ora:getCompositeInstanceId(), to one of element in the xsd. Is this function available in the Transformation mapping so that I can assign to the element? I found the function in the mediator functions but I didn't work in the BPEL. Any of your idea will be appreciated.
SOA: 11.1.1.6

It works in BPEL, it is available as part of Advanced Functions in Expression Builder. However, it does not in Transformations(XSLT). So to work around two alternatives can be used
Alternate 1:
- Create a temp variable like "varCompositeInstanceId".
- Create a assign activity, before the transformation, set the value of the variable to "ora:getCompositeInstanceId()" inside this Assign activity.
- Send the variable as a parameter to the transformation.
- Use the parameter to map to the target inside the transformation(XSLT).
Alternate 2:
- Set the target in the XSLT to some random text.
- After the transformation, add an assign activity and inside it, set the value of the taget to "ora:getCompositeInstanceId()".
Mark the posting appropriately as "helpful" or "correct answer", if your issue is resolved.

Ora:processXSLT xpath function and absolute paths

It looks like ora:processXSLT xpath function does not honor absolute paths when specifying the location of the xslt to use in the first parameter. For example, if I call it like this:
<copy>
<from expression="ora:processXSLT('/u01/transforms/mytransform.xsl',bpws:getVariableData('xslInput','payload'))"/>
<to variable="xslOutput"/>
</copy>
I get the following error in the bpel logs:
Error while processing xpath expression, the expression is "ora:processXSLT('/u01/transforms/mytransform.xsl', bpws:getVariableData("xslInput", "payload"))", the reason is javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /u01/oracle/bpel/integration/orabpel/domains/test/tmp/.bpel_transformTest_1.0.jar/u01/transforms/mytransform.xsl (No such file or directory).
Please verify the xpath query.
It is assuming that the xsl will be relative to the bpel suitcase and just appending the supplied path to the relative path for the bpel process. Why would I want to do this? Well, I have hundreds of these maps and I want to be able to select one at runtime. I'm also adding new ones every day and I don't want to have to redeploy the process that uses them each time I add a new map. Is there any way to force this process to recognize the absolute path? I can work around it for now by using a bunch of ../../../../ stuff but that's a kludge and I'd like to find a better way to do it.
I get the same error with xdk:processXSLT.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Sean

Hi Sean,
Did you try to the file path with the file:// prefix and not just the path?

SQL Error: ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P012 ORA-0001

Dear all
We are in BI 7.0 and oracle 10.2.02 and OS AIX 5.3 and we are getting the ORA -12801 while attribute change run
and aggregates rollup.
plz help
Regards
Amiya Kumar

Hi...
Check SAP Note 934281 - No 'Star Transformation' for a Hierarchy Changerun......
Symptom
The SQL command of a hierarchy changerun is executed with a
PARALLEL hint under ORACLE, and the system therefore always accesses the fact table with a full tablescan although only a little may be read.
Other terms
Query, aggregate, realignment run, ORACLE, Parallel Hint, ORA-12801,
ORA-01652, start transformation, parallel hint
Reason and Prerequisites
The Parallel hint should only be set when the aggregate is built again,
but not with the delta realignment run. There was no check made in case of a hierarchy changerun. So hierarchy changerun was executed with the
parallel hint.
Solution
With the following code correction, the hierarchy changerun also adapts
to star transformation when an aggregate has delta changes.

Using the XPATH expression function in Transformation activity

Hi,
I have to map the variable value(other than the source variable) to one of the node in the target variable in the transformation activity. For that I am using the XPATH expression function bpws:getVariableData ('variableName') and map it to corrsponding target node. But this mapping is not at all happening. The same prolem occurs while using function ora:getInstanceID() in transformation function. Then I could find a metalink note id: 387381.1,saying it as the bug in 10.1.2.2 BPEL PM, which they are covering in the next release. But our BPEL PM version is 10.1.3.3. But still the same type of problem occurs.
Please let me know, is there are any solution for using the ora:getInstanceID() , bpws:getVariableData in Transformation activity.

Hi,
I dont understand why would you need to use the "bpws:getVariableData" function.
When you are mapping a source-node to a target-node, it usually assigns the value in the source-node to the target-node, which is as good as using the "bpws:getVariableData" function.
So, technically speaking you need to use this function explicitly to achieve that ...
Also, if you want the instance-id, you can use the "ora:getInstanceId()" directly in the BPEL code than using it in the transformation.

Trimming comma in Transformation

Hi all,
I have a requirement of storing a string (containing commas) into an integer database field (without commas). I am thinking of trimming the commas inside transformation but I am not able to acheive it.
Source Datatype: String
Source Data example1: 2,000,765
Source Data Example2: 1,000
Destination Database column datatype: Number
Destination Data should look like: 2000765 (for example1) and 1000 (for example2)
I need to remove the commas from the incoming string and need to store it in Database column. Above I have mentioned just an example.
I am using Jdeveloper 10.1.3.3 version.
Please help me out in this.
Thanks,
Abhishek.

Hi all,
I have resolved this issue by using Translate function and then converting it to number in Transformation.

Pass parameter into BPEL WS

We have a hardcoded email address we use for testing error messages during development.
We would like to be able to change the email address with an ant deployment plan. How can we create a variable to store this value that can then be changed in the deployment plan? Can the deployment plan change the bpel file?
We've tried using a default value in one of the xsd files but cannot figure out how to make an assign or transform grab that default or fixed value. It keeps saying null or empty. Is there a xsl function to grab this? We tried using @default on the end of the getvariabledata with no luck, but I think that's mixing schemas because default is part of xsd not our actual schema.
Thanks,

I tried the customizeDocument but it causes errors. I must not be doing it right.
Is there a function similar to ora:getPreference() that will get the "Email_To2" property from the <configurations>??
In the bpel.xml below, I can change the "Email_To2" value using the deployment plan but can't get to it from the bpel code.
I can get to the "Email_To" value in the bpel code but can't change the value in the deployment plan.

Function with in a function

Hi All,
I have a urgnt requirement where presently i am using a while loop and mapping the source payload to target as there is no change in the source and target.
Now i want to do a change in the transformation so i want to go to a transformation rather than assign inside the while loop.
ora:processXSLT('Transformation_3.xsl',ora:getNodes('inputVariable','payload','/client:loopProcess/client:CompleteAccount/ns1:Account[$Counter]'))
So what i need is i need to process a xslt inside a loop with a counter in the ora:getNodes() inside the ora:processXSLT() will the BPEL engine work with this kind of function in the assign.
this is a kind of wierd question but i am thinking of this way of approach is there any better way please do let me know any information is appreciated.
