Try to load a xml File

Hi,
I would like to load a xml file with the xml.loader action block.
The name of the file is 78b39221#11b6f.
When i test the transaction i get the error:
[ERROR]: Unable to complete requested action on XML document. c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Test\78b39221 (The system cannot find the file specified)
How can I manage it to load the file?

Torben,
I guess you are working with MII 11.5?
I have just tried it with MII 12.0, saved a XML file with the same name you have mentioned in a WEB folder, and the XML Loader could input the file, no matter if the ".xml" extension was included or not. The xml structure and contents have been read correctly.
Maybe this is a version 11.5 problem, that the suffix "#..." is cut off from the filename so MII could not find the file?

Help in loading the xml file using AS 2.0

Hi
I try to load the Xml file in As file but i need do all the
fetching details from the __LoadXmlFile file function
but it's working fine can any one help me for this issue
~~Sk

You can't! Well, at least Flex cannot do this. All Flex can
do is send this data -- any data -- to the server and it's up to
you how you want to append this data to a file on the server.
You see, flex can't write to local files. If you looking for
client side file manipulation, take a look at Flex's desktop
brother call AIR!

XML Parse error while loading an XML file

HI Folks,
I was trying to load and XML file into BODS.. The XML file is well-formed and the same when tested in other tools is getting loaded without any issues..
I have created a XML-File format with the corresponding XSD..
But here in BODS it is giving - Parse error
1) when i try to view the data of the source XML in my dataflow ..it is giving "XML Parser Failed".. and not able to show data..
2) When I run my job i get the same pares error - with details as under..
---> Error here is "Unable to recognize element 'TAB' " or some time is say " Element TAB should be qualified"
Please guide with this if you have any info..thanks

Pierre,
Depending on the object "myLastFile", the method openDlg might not even exist (if the myLastFile object is not a File object, for instance). And I do not see any need for the myLastFile anyhow, as you are presenting a dialog to select a file to open. I recommend using the global ChooseFile( ) method instead. This will give you a filename as string in full path notation, or null when no file was selected in the dialog. I am not sure what your ExtendScript documentation states about the return value for ChooseFile, but if that differs from what I am telling you here, the documentation is wrong. So, if you replace the first lines of your code with the following it should work:
function openXMLFile ( ) {
var filename = ChooseFile ( "Choose XML file ...", "", "*.xml", Constants.FV_ChooseSelect );
While writing this, I see that Russ has already given you the same advice. Use the symbolic constant value I indicated to use the ChooseFile dialog to select a single file (it can also be used to select a directory or open a file - but you want to control the opening process yourself). Note that this method allows you to set a start directory for the dialog (second parameter). The ESTK autocompletion also gives you a fifth parameter "helplink" which is undocumented and can safely be ignored.
Good luck

An example about how to load a XML file

Hi,
I've been working on Oracle for many years but fot the first time I was asked to load a XML file into a table.
As an example, I've found this on the web, but it doesn't work.
Can someone tell me why? I hoped this example could help me.
the file acct.xml is this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
<HEADER>
<STATUS_CODE>100</STATUS_CODE>
<STATUS_REMARKS>check</STATUS_REMARKS>
</HEADER>
<DETAILS>

</DETAIL>
<DETAIL>
<SEGMENT_NUMBER>50</SEGMENT_NUMBER>
<REMARKS> base polytechnic logistics</REMARKS>
</DETAIL>
</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
For the two tags HEADER and DETAILS I have the table:
create table xxrp_acct_details(
status_code number,
status_remarks varchar2(100),
segment_number number,
remarks varchar2(100)
before I've created a
create directory test_dir as 'c:\esterno'; -- where I have my acct.xml
and after, can you give me a script for loading data by using XMLTABLE?
I've tried this but it doesn't work:
DECLARE
acct_doc xmltype := xmltype( bfilename('TEST_DIR','acct.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8') );
BEGIN
insert into xxrp_acct_details (status_code, status_remarks, segment_number, remarks)
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'

xmltable(

columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS'
) x2
END;
This should allow me to get something like this:
select * from xxrp_acct_details;
Statuscode status remarks segement remarks
100 check 2 rp polytechnic
100 check 3 rp polytechnic administration
100 check 4 rp polytechnic finance

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Your code is not readable (no code tags).
Anyway, you can use SQL*Loader to load a XML document into a table.
Here is the link of the documentation with both description and an example at the end of the
article.

Thanks in advance!

The reason your first SQL statement
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x2.segment_number,
        x2.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS[$hn]/DETAIL'
passing acct_doc as "d",
          x1.header_no as "hn"
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS'
) x2
returns the error you noticed
PL/SQL: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NUMBER
is because Oracle is expecting XML to be passed in. At the moment I forget if it requires a certain format or not, but it is simply expecting the value to be wrapped in simple XML.
Your query actually runs as is on 11.1 as Oracle changed how that functionality worked when 11.1 was released. Your query runs slowly, but it does run.
As you are dealing with groups, is there any way the input XML can be modified to be like
<ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<ACCOUNT_GROUP>
<HEADER>....</HEADER>
<DETAILS>....</DETAILS>
</ACCOUNT_GROUP>
</ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK>
so that it is easier to associate a HEADER/DETAILS combination? If so, it would make parsing the XML much easier.
Assuming the answer is no, here is one hack to accomplish your goal
select x1.status_code,
        x1.status_remarks,
        x3.segment_number,
        x3.remarks
from xmltable(
'/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/HEADER'
passing acct_doc
columns header_no      for ordinality,
          status_code    number        path 'STATUS_CODE',
          status_remarks varchar2(100) path 'STATUS_REMARKS'
) x1,
xmltable(
'$d/ACCOUNT_HEADER_ACK/DETAILS'
passing acct_doc as "d",
columns detail_no      for ordinality,
          detail_xml     xmltype       path 'DETAIL'
) x2,
xmltable(
'DETAIL'
passing x2.detail_xml
columns segment_number number        path 'SEGMENT_NUMBER',
          remarks        varchar2(100) path 'REMARKS') x3
WHERE x1.header_no = x2.detail_no;
This follows the approach you started with. Table x1 creates a row for each HEADER node and table x2 creates a row for each DETAILS node. It assumes there is always a one and only one association between the two. I use table x3, which is joined to x2, to parse the many DETAIL nodes. The WHERE clause then joins each header row to the corresponding details row and produces the eight rows you are seeking.
There is another approach that I know of, and that would be using XQuery within the XMLTable. It should require using only one XMLTable but I would have to spend some time coming up with that solution and I can't recall whether restrictions exist in 10gR2 Express Edition compared to what can run in 10.2 Enterprise Edition for XQuery.

Loading an xml file from jws : a nightmare !

Hi all:
I'm trying to load a xml file packed inside a jar file, and when i call getresource it keeps always returning null !!!
When i run the application (not in JWS) the file is loaded, but when i run it from a jnlp file with jws no !!
I tried all possible solutions wihout success :(
the last portion of code i used is :
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
     URL xmlFile=cl.getResource("configure.xml"); why is it working when run from Eclipse but fails when using jws ?
I packed all my .class files together with xml file in one jar.
please help me ! this stuff is driving me crazy :(
thanks.

Hi phasse !
Yes I've fortenatly managed to solve my problem .here is the desription:
Actually my problem was not with loading the xml file but in reading it .
my problem was in the statement builder.parse(xmlFile.getPath()); this will not work with jws .I replaced this with : Document document = null;
          try {
                ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
               DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory
                         .newInstance();
               DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
                  document=builder.parse(cl.getResourceAsStream("resources/configure.xml"));I would suggest to use ClassLoader and getResourceAsStream("xmlfile") method .
I hope this would be helpfull for you .Good luck !

Loading an XML File in an Application!

Hy Guys!
I'm quite new on Java, so I'm missing some important knowledge, for example: how to load an XML file in an Application downloaded by Java WebStart:
In Details:
I'm downloading an Application which needs an XML File for setting up an Legend. As far as I know, the XMLParser needs a File as argument to parse. By Java WebStart/jnlp, I can't download the XML-File to the local machine, and trying to create an instance by the url (as String), doesn't work. So now I'm missing some information, and I hope you can help me:
Is there a possiblility to download the XML file via the application explicitly,
or is there a possibility to "convert" the ResourceInputStream into a "parseable" class?
I'm happy for every suggestion ..
some code:
public class EvalXML extends org.xml.sax.helpers.DefaultHandler {
/** Creates a new instance of EvalXML */
public EvalXML() {
* @param args the command line arguments
public static int main(String[] args) {
DefaultHandler handler = new EvalXML();
SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
String url = new String();
//String url = EvalXML.class.getClassLoader().getResource("com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml").getPath();
//String url= "msgis.jar!/com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml";
if (args[0] + "empty" != "empty") url = args[0];
else{
System.out.println("no argument");
return 0;
System.out.println("PATH: \n" + url + "\n");
try{
SAXParser saxParser = factory.newSAXParser();
//saxParser.parse(new File(EvalXML.class.getClassLoader().getResource("com/msgis/res/Lcc_Test_XML_Addressen.xml").getPath()), handler);
saxParser.parse(new File(url), handler);
System.out.println("pascht");
catch(Throwable t){
System.out.println(t.getMessage());
return 1;

Although nobody wrote back, it is the quality of a forum depends on soluted problems so:
the following function loads the file from the server to the box:
public boolean loadResource(String pURL){
DownloadService ds;
URL lURL;
boolean lLoaded = true;
try{
lURL = new URL(pURL);
try {
ds = (DownloadService)ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.DownloadService");
} catch (UnavailableServiceException e) {
ds = null;
lLoaded = false;
if (ds != null) {
try {
// determine if a particular resource is cached
//URL url = new URL("http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/lib/draw.jar");
boolean cached = ds.isResourceCached(lURL, "1.0");
// remove the resource from the cache
if (cached) {
ds.removeResource(lURL, "1.0");
// reload the resource into the cache
DownloadServiceListener dsl = ds.getDefaultProgressWindow();
ds.loadResource(lURL, "1.0", dsl);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
lLoaded = false;
catch(MalformedURLException mue)
System.out.println(mue.getMessage());
lLoaded =false;
return lLoaded;

Runtime loading of XML file off a ComboBox selection

I need to load an XML file at runtime based on a ComboBox
selection that has the XML file path as its data.
I figured out how to load an XML file at runtime by defining
an HTTPService
<mx:HTTPService id="stocksXML" url="xml/StockList.xml"
resultFormat="e4x"/>
and setting the <mx:Application
creationComplete="stocksXML.send();"
But when I now try to set the HTTPService url dynamically in
the ComboBox change event handler
private function loadData_changeHandler(event:ListEvent):void
stocksXML.url = event.target.selectedItem.path;
stocksXML.send();
no data gets retrieved and the stocksXML.lastResult is null.
What am I missing here? Why doesn't that work?
Thanks in advance for any pointers

I suggest adding a resultHandler to the HTTPService and check
the results there. Also add a faultHandler so that you will know
what the error was.

Techinical issue loading an XML file in to database

hi,
i am trying to load an XML file into Oracle database using SSIS 2005. the XML file is huge with 4000+ columns and also has many sub catogoreys. if i try to load the file using XSD it is taking lot of space to read the entire file upto 10GB even if the data row in the file is only one. I am only loading 60 columns out of the 4000+ columns. please provide me any alternatives that you can think of.
Thanks in advance.

I think Oracle's support for loading XML data to relational tables could be improved. I haven't found a scalable solution for very large XML files that doesn't involve breaking the file up into little parts or writing / copying a good bit of code.XML DB provides two efficient ways to load XML data relationally :
- Object-Relational storage and FTP : the file is send to the XDB repository and inserted into the default XMLType table declared during schema registration. The underlying storage structures (collections, nested tables) are loaded directly while the data source is read.
Then it's just a matter of building views over the XMLType table to present the data relationally.
We can process several GBs with this method.
- Binary XML and streaming XPath evaluation : binary XML is a post-parsed format which is optimized for streaming processing, it's available since 11.1 and now the default starting with 11.2.0.2.
and you are supposed to parse the whole thing and return any errors before actually doing anything.That's the DOM view of things.
XML DB doesn't use DOM when documents are first stored as XMLType (binary or OR storage), or when it does, for example if a functional evaluation of XQuery is required, then a "lazy DOM" model is used where only the needed part(s) of the XML is (are) retrieved.

Need to load multiple xml Files in ODI.

I have successfully loaded on file by creating a topology for that xml file only.
But I am facing issue when I created a variable based topology and now trying to load a different file.
The variable based topology is like
JDBC URL for XML Data Server is :
jdbc:snps:xml?f=#GLOBAL.GV_XML_FILENAME&re=MAIN&ro=false&case_sens=true&nobu=false&dod=true
For physical schema i have created :
SCHEMA : - #GLOBAL.GV_XML_PHYSICAL_SCHEMA
SCHEMA (WORK) : #GLOBAL.GV_XML_PHYSICAL_SCHEMA
Now I have created a package where I am initializing these tow variables first, and then calling the interface.
The package gets executed successfully when same filename and same schema name is passed for which I have created a hardcoded dataserver and physical schema.
Bue when I try to pass another xml file 2009D2.XML and a new physical shcema, name 2009D , it gives error.
ODI-1227: Task SrcSet0 (Loading) fails on the source XML connection Chrysler_var_ds.

Please provide me any solution if any one of you have done this.
Also provide me step if i am missing any.

Thanks Alex, I was able to solve my issue with some help from your code. I rebuilt your valueObject class as a reference point to rebuild my arrays and parse the data into the grid. Works like a charm now. Thank you for your help. On a side note, I marked your blog as a regular read.

How to load the .xml file list from 'C:\Drag_list\Modified' into xmltype tb

Hi all experts,
I am in Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g 11.2.0.1.0.
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Tue Feb 22 11:40:23 2011
is there anyone know why
SQL> create or replace directory XMLDIR as '/xdb/faq/testdata'
2 /
SQL> set long 10000 pages 200 lines 150
SQL> --
SQL> select xmltype(bfilename('XMLDIR','2003.xml'),nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'))
2 from dual
worked. but
SQL> create or replace directory XMLDIR as 'C:\Drag_list\Modified';
SQL> select xmltype(bfilename('XMLDIR','2011.xml'),nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'))
from dual
did not work?
IS there any way I can load the .xml file list from 'C:\Drag_list\Modified' into xmltype table?
Thanks.

did not work?Generally we'll need a bit more info than "it didn't work", was there an ora-X error message? What was the error?
Assuming you're on *nix a 'C:\<folder name>\...' directory spec just plain won't work, the directory has to point to a valid storage location on the database server host.
Try a host command (at the database server) and make sure the .xml file name and location is valid, in sqlplus a "bang" (exclamation) runs a host command, i.e.:
SQL> !ls -l /xdb/faq/testdata
... usr grp ... 2003.xml
...But if you are on windows, its the `host` command:
SQL> host dir c:\drag_list\modified
mm/dd/yyyy ... 2011.xml
... The create directory ... as ... must point to a valid storage location for it to work, at least that is step one.

Not a perfectly framed question. How do you want to load the XML file? Hoping you want to parse the xml file and load it into a table you can do this.
This is the xml file
karthick% cat emp_details.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<EMPNO>7782</EMPNO>
<ENAME>CLARK</ENAME>
<JOB>MANAGER</JOB>
<MGR>7839</MGR>
<HIREDATE>09-JUN-1981</HIREDATE>
<SAL>2450</SAL>
<COM>0</COM>
<DEPTNO>10</DEPTNO>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<EMPNO>7839</EMPNO>
<ENAME>KING</ENAME>
<JOB>PRESIDENT</JOB>
<HIREDATE>17-NOV-1981</HIREDATE>
<SAL>5000</SAL>
<COM>0</COM>
<DEPTNO>10</DEPTNO>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
You can write a query like this.
SQL> select *
2    from xmltable
3         (
4            '/ROWSET/ROW' passing xmltype
5            (
6                 bfilename('SDAARBORDIRLOG', 'emp_details.xml')
7               , nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')
8            )
9            columns empno    number      path 'EMPNO'
10                  , ename    varchar2(6) path 'ENAME'

13                  , hiredate varchar2(20)path 'HIREDATE'
14                  , sal      number      path 'SAL'
15                  , com      number      path 'COM'
16                  , deptno   number      path 'DEPTNO'
17         );

How to load a XML file into the database

Hi,
I've always only loaded data into the database by using SQL-Loader and the data format was Excel or ASCII
Now I have to load a XML.
How can I do?
The company where I work has Oracle vers. 8i (don't laugh, please)
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Tough job especially if the XML data is complex. The have been some similar question in the forum:
Using SQL Loader to load an XML File -- use 1 field's data for many records
SQL Loader to upload XML file
Hope they help.

Loading an xml file from an xml file

I'm trying to load an xml file from an xml file, but I'm
having problems. My first xml file is really simple - it only
contains one attribute with the name of another xml file in it
(eventually I will have multiple xml files in here and run a loop
on them...this is why I want to load an xml file from an xml file).
Currently, with the code below, I can get the main xml file
to load ("main.xml"), but I cannot get the secondary xml files to
load FROM the main.xml.
I want to then take childNode values from the secondary xml
file and use them within my .swf in text boxes and whatnot.
Any guidance? I think I'm going wrong on the line where I'm
saying "i.newxml.load(i.attributes.location);"
- How can I get this to work?

johnypeter:
I tried changing the code inside the loop to use just
"newxml" instead of "i.newxml", and I declared with "var newxml =
new XML();" - was this what you were thinking?
kglad:
The reason I tried to use the loadXML() function in the loop
was so that for each node in my "main.xml" it would load the new
xml file listed - this is a no-no? Do you have any ideas as to what
I could do?
For the for-loop, what should I change in it? I'm not great
with loops so I tried to modify some code from another loop I found
in another forum thread - not the right way to do it here?
Also, what should I trace? The value of the _root.address, or
i.attributes.location? I have created dynamic text boxes on my
stage to see if the correct value from the xml file loads (ie. the
name of the xml file within the xml file) and it does, but now I
don't know how to put that information into ANOTHER loadXML()
function and get the node information from it - does that make
sense???
Below are the examples of the xml files I am using. In the
first one, main.xml, I will have a list of multiple xml files, each
with the same nodes and elements as in the details.xml file
(different values, of course).
This is just to give you an example of what I'm trying to
accomplish - pulling ALL the addresses and phone numbers from
multiple xml files. I cannot manually collect this information, as
it is dynamic, and will be updated in each individual details.xml.
I was hoping to collect the information by simply adding to and
updating ONE xml file - main.xml.
Do you think this can be done? Am I going about it the wrong
way? I'm quite limited in AS knowledge, which is why I'm piecing
together code from other posts!
