Redirecting from a JSP to an XML file

I have an issue that I urgently need to sort out.
I'm running a web application which uses EJB's for the
back-end and JSP's for the front-end.
I have a class that generates an xml file on the system
containing client information. I create a String Object
which holds the filename & retrieve it inside a Servlet to
forward as a HttpServletRequest attribute. Inside the JSP
which retrieves the attribute I then attempt to open the file in a new browser window.
The problem is when it opens, only the xml data is displayed and the file is not rendered using the specified xsl style sheet. My JSP looks like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<%@ page
language="java"
contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
%>
<%@ page import="za.symbiotics.momentum.forms.helper.*"%>
<%
String file = "../" + request.getAttribute("FILE").toString();
%>
<TITLE>Momentum Simplicity</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY onLoad="forward()">
<%
response.setContentType("text/xml");
response.sendRedirect(file);
%>
</BODY
</HTML>
...part of the Servlet...
FormWriter fw = new FormWriter();
String prefix = getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
String file = fw.getFile()
RoleFileName rf = new RoleFileName()
rf.setFilename(file);
req.setAttribute("FILE", file);
Any advice will be appreciated.

u first read the xml file in-memory .Create DOM object .Then apply the XSL on this DOM .
Now take this in-memory DOM and write it on the OutputStream :
ServletOutputStream objOutPutStream = response.getOutputStream();
objOutPutStream.write(objDOM);
objOutPutStream.flush();
objOutPutStream.close();

Changing the directory Structure of Jsp and web.xml files

Hi,
I am using the JDeveloper 11g preview. Can any one tell me how to change the Jsp and web.xml files ( not in WEB-INF directory of the application) to another directory.
Thanks in Advance
Gopal

Hi Frank,
Is it possible for me to change the folder structure which JDeveloper is providing for web project?
By default JDeveloper is giving the following folder structure.
In the project's root folder there is a public_html and src folder along with .jpr file.
In public_html folder thre is an WEB-INF folder and a jsp file
In WEB-INF folder there is an classes folder along with web.xml file.
I need to have the following folder structure :
The WEB-INF folder should be in root folder of project not in public_html folder
src folder must be in WEB-INF folder.
Thanks in Advance

SSO problem when redirecting from a JSP page to an external application

Hi,
I try to make a redirect from a JSP page (that is under a SSO protected application on iAS) to another page from another application, on an external iAS server, also protected by (a different) SSO. After the redirection is done, the login window appears, I enter the login name and the password and after that I obtain the followin error:
"Oracle SSO Failure - Unable to process request
Either the requested URL was not specified in terms of a fully-qualified host name or OHS single sign-on is incorrectly configured.
Please notify your administrator."
In the logs og the server I found the following:
[OSSO] W05: Requested URL is not specified in terms of fully-qualified host name or invalid SSO partner configuration. Host from request
mycompany.com:7777, registered host 144.147.147.200:7778.
(the ip address being the address of the mycompany.com host).
Any clue about this? Thanks a lot in advance!
Regards,
Marinel

Hi Carlo,
Thanks for your answer.
The JSP original page is not added as a partner application to the second SSO server.
The idea was that the user should insert first the login name/passwd for the first server, after being logged in, then redirected to the second application (on a different server), insert the login name/password for the second application and then load the 2nd application page. It seems that is not working after inserting the password for the 2nd application.
Coming to a more general question that could help me to avoid this complicated approach: is it possible to have two different applications deployed on two different iAS servers and the two applications to use the same SSO (let's say the one from the first iAS server)? I have to mention that the process scenario is the following: the user load a page from the first application (protected by SSO), then, after successfull login and some processing in the first app, he will be automatically redirected by the first app to the second application, on the second server. I want to have also the second application, on the 2nd server, protected by SSO (ideally would be the same SSO as the first one!). Ideally the scenario would be: if it is redirected from the first app and the user is already authenticated, the automatic redirection should be done transparently for the user (without enetring the password again). If the user goes directly from the browser to a page of the second app, the SSO login window should be displayed and the user should provide his password.
Is such a scenario possible on two apps deployed on two different servers?!
Thanks a lot again!

Marinel

Using jsp creating the xml file on the browser

Hi All,
My problem is i have jsp page by which i am getting the data from data base, by using the database table i want to create the xml file
can anybody help in this issue

Oh, "the thing". Let me see if I can find that code for you ...

Selecting the first 4000 characters from a tag in an xml file

Oracle Enterprise Edition 11.1.0.7 64 bit (Jan 2012 CPU applied)
Windows 2003 64 bit
We have an XML file with the following sample format.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<HR>
<EMP>
<FNAME>JOHN</FNAME>
<LNAME>DOE</LNAME>
<COMMENT>Comment with less than 4000 characters</COMMENT>
</EMP>
<EMP>
<FNAME>JANE</FNAME>
<LNAME>DOE</LNAME>
<COMMENT>Comment with more than 4000 characters</COMMENT>
</EMP>
</HR>
The query below
(full disclosure: which I took from odie_63's response in Creating External Table using Xml Dataset - how to include null values? and added the CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT hint on the top)
works when the contents of the <Comment> tag are smaller than 4000 characters. If it is more than 4000 I get
ORA-01706: user function result value was too large
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'COMMENT'
I found another query where someone was doing a substring (I think to get only the first 4000 characters from the tag) here.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=14638197 (See OP's post)
TERMINATION_DATE VARCHAR(32) path 'TerminateDate/substring(text(), 1, 32)',
So I updated my query to be
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'COMMENT/substring(text(),1,4000)'
The query runs without an error when the <comment> tag has 4000 or less characters but still errors out with it is more than 4000.
I found an alternative method to do the SUBSTRING here in Herald ten Dam's reponse in Re: A view over XML that is not 1:1
code varchar2(30) path 'substring(code,1,3)',
so I tried this:
SELECT /*+ CURSOR_SHARING_EXACT */
FROM XMLTable(
'/HR/EMP'
passing xmltype( bfilename('DATA_PUMP_DIR','emp.xml'), nls_charset_id('CHAR_CS') )
columns
first_name varchar2(30) path 'FNAME',
last_name varchar2(30) path 'LNAME',
comments varchar2(4000) path 'substring(COMMENT,1,4000)'
but that doesn't work either.
How can I extract the first 4000 characters of the <COMMENT> tag so that the query doesn't fail.
We are not using any other XMLDB features at this time. This is the first we've started looking into using Oracle built in XML features, so we might not have setup something that other's might know to specifically setup to start using the XML features in Oracle 11.1
Thanks in advance,
Wally

Inserting a value from page field into an xml file

Hi there,
I have added a field 'Comments' on a create vacancy page.
There are other fields on that page and the values from those fields are getting stored in an xml file.
This xml file is getting stored in TRANSACTION_DOCUMENT column of table HR_API_TRANSACTIONS.
Is it possible to add the value from the field (that I've added on the page) into the same xml file?
If yes, please tell me how
and if no, tell me what should I do to store that value.
Regards,
Gaurav.

Hi Gaurav,
You need to check in seeded files for the logic of generation of XML file and setting it in DB column. May be in PLSQL API this code would exist.
Once you get that logic you can append your column value in XML tag (need to create new tag) if you are allowed to modify seeded API. Otherwise use free additional attributes of the table.
Hope I am clear.

Mukesh Uchaniya

Is it possible to create a table from the input of an XML file

Hi,
Must the table exist when I try to parse data from an XML file, or can I tell the parser to create the table if it doesn't exists.
thanks
Rune Haavik

Rune,
XML Parsing on Java side does not require any table(s) to be present.
If you are talking about PLSQL parsers, then I guess you can catch the exception in your PLSQL block and then create a table. This falls in the SQL realm.
I hope this answers your question.

Exporting data from database tables to a XML file

Hi,
We want to export data from Oracle database tables to an XML
file. What tool can we use for this purpose, and how do we go
about it ?
Can we extract data only from an Oracle8 database, or can we
extract data from Oracle7.3 databases too ?
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Thanks

Start by downloading the XML SQL Utility and make sure you have
the approriate JDBC 1.1 drivers installed for your database.
There are samples which will get you going included in the

Use jsp to read xml file

Gents,
I'm a XML & JSP newbie and try to do the following: I have a xml file which can be opened with a browser so that I can see data (let's say my cd collection). Further I have a xls file which makes the display a little nicer, with colors and so. Now, I want to have a jsp page read this xml file and I'm not very succesfull, while I spent hours and hours on Google, but nothing.
What I did so far, was:
- download & install Tomcat 5.5
- make a dir under webapps\mycdcollection
- copy my xml files to webapps\mycdcollection
- make a dir webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF
- make a dir webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF\lib
- copy standard.jar & jstl.jar to BOTH webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF\lib as webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\lib
Here are my questions:
- How should my web.xml in webapps\mycdcollection\WEB-INF look like?
- Should I precompile my jsp? If so, should there be a classes directory somehwere? How should I make my app know that there is a classes directory?
I'm sure I will have lots more of questions, but if you can get me on the way I'd be very thankful.

hi,
u can interact with xml while in jsp. we have jstl (xml) tags to interact with the xml files.
use the jstl and copy the jar files neede for the jstl in to ur web app folder. u need to copy jstl.jar, standard.jar, jaxen.jar, and optionally (saxpath.jar and xalan.jar) based on the versions of the jstl ur using.
mail me at [email protected], if u have any problems.
Here, are some urls' go through with this,

Reference a DSL from CDATA section in an Xml file

I use a DSL along with some XML files in an Eclipse project. I would like to reference some of the DSL entities from within a CDATA section in the XML files and provide content assist for doing so.
Would I need to define a DSL for the XML and then implement some DSL cross referencing ?
Would I lose the default XML features of Eclipse if I do so ?
Is there a way to overload the XML support built into Eclipse for implementing this ?

I don't know about the extension capabilities of the XML editor. You would need to investigate how this editor can be extended first. This might be a question for Eclipse Web Tools Platform, if you use that XML editor (there are several XML editor plugins available).

Is there anyway to create a xml file from a list so that xml file is available like an RSS.xml

Hello
My objective is to have a xml file created from a list for anonymous access. The SharePoint RSS feed is a .aspx file not xml, as shown below:
_layouts/listfeed.aspx?List=21c2cdaa%2D52f3%2D4057%2Db674%2D45e63ba77e31&View=535eb328%2Db5fb%2D45c5%2D8fe8%2Da130e92afc41
Also, is there a way to do this so that the xml content has current data like the list.
Thank you for any insight and direction.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create a xml file from a SharePoint list.
To generate a XML file, we can use the SharePoint Object Model or PowerShell to achieve it.
