Problem in using query-database() function in Transformation

Question

Hi All,
I am using JDev and SOA 10.1.3.4.
I have an async process.
In that I am doing a transformation in which source is InputVariable and target is result.
In Transformation I am using query-database function to fetch a record from DB and am assigning that to result.
*<xsl:value-of select='orcl:query-database(concat("select ename from emp where empid=",/ns1:DBXSLProcessRequest/ns1:input),false(),false(),"jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger@localhost:1521:abcd")'/>*
I am not getting any error but query-database is not returning any thing I maen it is returning null.
If i run that query in SQL prompt it is returning the empname.
Please help me out.

Hi Pavan
I tried following in BPEL transform actvity's XSL file, and it works fine and returns the sysdate for me.
<xsl:value-of select='orcl:query-database("select sysdate from dual",false,false,"jdbc/myDS")'/>
Can you try above in new XSL file of Transform activity and let me know its gives you the result? if it works you can start making changes according to your requirement.
steps to follow:
1.create connection pool in EM, and make sure its working fine by using test on connection pool.
2.create Datasource and point to above created connection pool. and restart the oc4j_soa
3.rename the xsl file name of transform activity in BPEL and use above query-database function.some times xsl files are cached even if you make changes it will not take effect so for testing if you rename it will be good.
