XML data Upload in BW ( Webservice issue)

I am following the SDN document of 'How to load XML data into BW' and followed the steps till 19 and 26( BW3.5 need to skip steps in between).
As mentioned I have followed the steps to create the web service properly. However while testing I am getting certain errors.
1> Option 1 : Go to transaction wsconfig display the webservice Zsendxmldatatobw_1 è select and display è click the button Execute the webpage for the webservice http://fmsap562.fm.intel.com:50100/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/Zsendxmldatatobw_1
It says that the requested resources not found although I have checked that this services as well Soap Runtime service(srt) is activated as well.
I suspect that the webservice created by me is for some reason not visible from the web browser
Can any body help beyond this point.
Thanks
Arunabha

Hi arun,
From BW side you have to create XML Data Source and you have to activate data transfer to delta queue. And after that you create web service and realease it in SOAP run time environment.
Check this weblog on XI-BI Integration, it will give you good idea of creating XML datasource and actiavting delat queue.
/people/kamaljeet.kharbanda/blog/2005/09/16/xi-bi-integration
The document which you are reading is for sending an XML data to BW using XI, it will give you idea abt configuring XI and creating ABAP proxy and as you are trying through web services, so its of no use.
Rest you can check in detail in above weblog

Kamaljeet

XML Data Upload - J2EE Engine

Hello,
please can anyone tell me, if the J2EE Engine must be installed to send XML data to BW using the HTTP port provided under the WAS soap service?
I am working with XML data for BW and we do not have the engine installed. I have followed the 'How to send XML data to BW' but it is not clear on my question. We are using BW 3.5.
Thank you for any advise.

You need to create a Web Service from the function module the sytem generated when you created the SOAP DataSource (e.g. /BI0/QI6ASENDXMLDATATOBW_RFC). You can accomplish this from SM37, <i>Display -> Utilities -> More Utilities -> Create Web Service</i>.
Afterwards you have to create an InfoPackage for initializing the delta process, witout data transfer. Finally you have to create an InfoPackage for the delta loadings you'll carry out.
The transaction WSADMIN offers a way for testing if the Web Service functions correctly. Unfortunately, this test utility requires the J2EE Engine, since it uses a Web page which is provided by the SAP J2EE Server. You could use this page to send some data records to the queue via the Web Service.
Nevertheless, you can send data calling this Web Service from your exteral application. The data will be placed in the delta queue. You'll be able to fetch these data through the delta InfoPackage you've defined.

XML data upload only from .xml file

Hi,
Can anyone let me know is ther any way how I can upload the data from .xml file into Oracle Table.
Note: I just want to upload the data from xml file; not entire .xml file.
I have data like as below in test.xml file and I want to upload the data only into TEST_EMP table:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<TABLE_NAME>DEPT</TABLE_NAME>
<TABLESPACE_NAME>USERS</TABLESPACE_NAME>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">

You may convert the XML into a simple select and insert manually:
SQL> INSERT INTO test_emp
   SELECT EXTRACTVALUE (t2.COLUMN_VALUE, '/ROW/TABLE_NAME') table_name,
          EXTRACTVALUE (t2.COLUMN_VALUE, '/ROW/TABLESPACE_NAME')

     FROM TABLE
             (XMLSEQUENCE
                 (EXTRACT
                     (XMLTYPE
                         ('<?xml version = ''1.0''?>

When there are multiple tables in a control file, SQL Loader assumes the data for the first file in the second table immediately follows the last field in the first table. You probably want SQL Loader to start looking for the first column of the second table at the start of the second table. You can do this by using the POSITION clause

The uploaded file CPSIDRPT.xml is invalid. The file should be in XML-DATA-T

can someone explain me why am I getting following error message when I'm trying to upload a data defination file?
The uploaded file CPSIDRPT.xml is invalid. The file should be in XML-DATA-TEMPLATE format.
thanks........

Based on the detail (or lack of) that you have provided, your file is not in the right format.
Can you open the file in a internet browser? Is it well-formed XML?

Upload XML data using XSQL and HTTP Post ?

Upload XML data using XSLQ and HTTP Post: is that possible ?
An xsql contains an <xsql:insert-request table="aTable">
The XML data file follows the ROWSET/ROW paradigm.
What is the HTML form to upload the xml file to the XSQL ?
I tried:
<form action="myXSQL.xsql" method="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
XML data file to upload: <input type="file">
<input type="submit">
</form>
But the answer of myXSQL is:
<xsql-status action="xsql:insert-request" result="No posted document to process" />
Where is the problem ?
Thank you.

Hello,
You are posting your XML file as a parameter therefore you should use the <xsql:insert-params/> tag, not the <xsql:insert-request/>. The insert-request can only handle data not posted via a parameter.
Usage:
<form action="myXSQL.xsql" method="GET" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
XML data file to upload: <input type="file" name="myXML">
<input type="submit">
</form>
in combination with
<xsql>
<xsql:insert-params name="myXML" table="your table"/>
</xsql>
2 remarks:
I was not able to succesfully POST the form. The answer was <xsql-status action="xsql:insert-request" result="No posted document to process" />. With GET is was succesfull.
Second, if you use MSInternet explorer 5 or higher use could post the XML directly (not aw parameter) using an ActiveX object.

Receiving OCI/ORA-27163 when querying XML data in 11g.

When querying a table with a column stored in XML format, we get this error for large XML values. This works in Oracle 10g but this error happens when the same data is queried in an 11.2.0.3 instance. I have had a support request open with Oracle for about a month and so far it has not made any progress. What we've seen are the following:
1. The xml data itself is good.
2. The good xml data when queried with a wholly 10g client/server environment, works.
3. The same good xml data when inserted into a table in an 11g instance through a stored package run from the 11g instance (server to server) gets the 27163 error.
4. The same xml data when queried in a 10g instance from an 11g client fails with the 27163 error.
5. If we disable the 11g XML parser by setting an internal event (alter session set events='31156 trace name context forever, level 0x400';), then run the same code that was run in item 3 above, it does not get the 27163 error. However, the xml loaded to the 11g instance can then only be queried without getting the 27163 error if we use an older 10g client. An 11g client consistently gets the error.
The server versions are 11.2.0.3 (upgraded from 10.2.0.4). The SQL*Net client versions that we have tested on are 11.2.0.2 and 11.2.0.3 (both produce the 27163 error).
With considerable trial and error, we found that it is some combination of the file size and format that causes the error. Copied below is the smallest sample data of a failing XML that will produce this erro (about 8K). Remove any single character even in an a comment and the file parses successfully – but it’s not the file size alone as the original 800+KB file where we first dicovered this problem will process if the period in the attribute: @value=”${item.id}” is removed.
We are at our wit's end, and with an 11g migration project looming, any ideas anyone can suggest would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Joe
Here is a test case to play around with. Sorry I don't have a way to upload a zip file for this, but you can cut & paste from the post:
1. CREATE TABLE my_xml_test
(record_id NUMBER(4,0),
xml SYS.XMLTYPE,
comments VARCHAR2(200))
ALTER TABLE my_xml_test
ADD CONSTRAINT my_xml_test_pk PRIMARY KEY (record_id)
USING INDEX
2. mkdir SampleData
3. cd into SampleData, copy the XML I will post in the first reply to this message into a new text document called xml_items_removed.xml.
4. cd .. and create a file called 20120112_11g_bad_xml_issue.txt with this in it:
1, .\SampleData\xml_items_removed.xml,"Fails: OriginalXML w/ all instances of <Item> removed (count 600) -- reduces file size to ca. 55KB but still fails (Saved by XMLSpy)"
5. Next create your SQL*Loader control file (call it my_xml_test.ctl):
LOAD DATA
APPEND INTO TABLE my_xml_test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
record_id,
ext_fname FILLER CHAR(200),
xml LOBFILE(ext_fname) TERMINATED BY EOF,
comments
6. sqlldr <username>/<password>@<database> control=my_xml_test.ctl data=20120112_11g_bad_xml_issue.txt log=20120112_11g_bad_xml_issue.log bad=20120112_11g_bad_xml_issue.bad
7. Once the data is loaded, query my_xml_test table that you created in step 1. You should get the 27163 error:
SELECT a.record_id,
comments,
a.XML,
length(a.XML.GetClobVal()) clob_length
FROM my_xml_test a

Trying to pass xml data to a web service

I'm working on an Apex application that is required to pass data to a web service for loading into another (non Oracle) system. The web service expects two stings as input, the first string is simply an ID, the second string is an xml document. I generate an xml 'string' using PL/SQL in an on-submit process prior to invoking the web service. If I pass regular text for the second parameter, the web service returns an error message which is stored in the response collection and displayed on the page as expected. When I pass the the xml data, I get a no data found error and the response collection is empty. I have tried this in our development environment on Apex 3.1.2 (database version 10.2). I also tried this on our Apex 4.0.2 sandbox (with the same Oracle 10.2 database). I have found that once I have nested xml, I get the no data found message, if I pass partial xml data, I get the error response from the web service. Perhaps I am not generating the xml correctly to pass to the web service (this only just occurred to me as I write this)? Or is there an issue passing xml data from Apex to the web service? Any help will be greatly appreciated! here is the code I use to generate the xml string:

The user reviews the data in a sql report region. When the use clicks on the Upload (SUBMIT) button, the xml string is generated first and then the web service is invoked. I have tried passing a simple string as the second parameter ("dummydata") and partial data in the xml string ("<sendingPerson>Test, Christine</sendingPerson>") the web service returns this error in both cases:
Error[Validate Data]: (XML) = Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.. Cannot validate the XML! Data Exchange not accepted!Once I pass the entire xml string above, I get an Oracle-01403: no data found error. I have opened the web service in IE and pasted my xml input string and received a valid, verified result, so I am sure that the generated xml is correct. I have spoken with the web service developer; there are no log entries created by the web service when I submit the full xml string, so I suspect the failure is in the Apex application.
Thanks,
Christine
I should add that once I have nested tags in the xml, I get the Oracle no data found error ("<header xmlns=""> <stdXmlVer>2.0</stdXmlVer> <sendingUnit>10</sendingUnit> </header>"). I f I do not have nested tags in the xml ("<notification>[email protected]</notification> <creationDate>2011-12-20</creationDate>"), I get the web service response (error).

Ok, I think I'm getting closer to thinking this all the way through. When I have used clobs in the past, I've always used the DBMS_CLOB package. I use this to create a temp clob and then make the above calls. I had to go find an example in my own code to remember all of this. So, here is another suggestion... feel free to disregard all the previous code snippets..

end;This code will use the Database to construct your clob and then convert it back to a varchar2 for output to your webservice. This makes more sense to me now and hopefully you can follow what the process is doing.
You don't technically need the two varchar2(36767) variables. I used two for naming convention clarity sake. You could use just one multipurpose variable instead.
If you have any questions, just ask. I'll help if I can.

Fixed spelling mistakes.

The file should be in XML-DATA-TEMPLATE format

Hi,
When I am trying to upload the Data Definition file in XML publisher with EBS 11.5.10.2, I got "The uploaded file GLPAYBDXDO.xml is invalid. The file should be in XML-DATA-TEMPLATE format". I have tried changing the file name to different names including XML-DATA-TEMPLATE but I could not succeed. I appreciate for any help.
Thanks,
Ram.

What is the content of your xml file. Is this sample xml file or Data Template.

Data template is invalid. Should be in XML-DATA-TEMPLATE format.

Hi,
I am trying to create & upload a Data Template for a Data Definition in XML Publisher. When I try to upload my data template, it shows me the error :-
" The uploaded file PAFPURUP_TEMPLATE.xml is invalid. The file should be in XML-DATA-TEMPLATE format. "
Can any please suggest me a possible resolution to this error? Below is my data template content :-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="WINDOWS-1252" ?>
<dataTemplate name="PAFPURUP_TEMPLATE" description="Data template for PAFPURUP" defaultPackage="PA_PAFPURUP_PKG" version="1.0">
<parameters>
<parameter name ="count" dataType="character" defaultValue="10"/>
</parameters>
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[SELECT BUDGET_VERSION_ID, VERSION_NAME FROM PA_BUDGET_VERSIONS WHERE ROWNUM <= :count]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="PA_PAFPURUP_PKG.beforeReportTrigger"/>
<dataStructure>
<group name ="G_BUDGET_VERSIONS" source="Q1">
<element name="Budget_Version_Id" value="budget_version_id"/>
<element name="Version_Name" value="version_name"/>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
Many Thanks,
Niranjan

Hi Fred,
Thanks for your response. The issue was actually with the xml format. I had missed '?' at the end of 1st line of the xml.
