XML file has some extra junk character

Hi Experts,
When i store file in application server,some extra junk character at last in xml file.So it gives error like below.
An invalid character was found in text content.
The last row of XML internal table has some extra special characters. How to avoid these extra spacial characters?
Please suggest?
Thanks.

if possible, Do the following in side the loop.
data lv_string type string VALUE '1111111######'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN lv_string WITH ''.
or
OPEN DATASET <path> FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

Getting question marks in html output when xml file has an mdash or rsquo

I have a java servlet that gets an xml file out of ifs, applies
a style sheet to it, and sends it to the browser as html.
I have:
DOMparser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(XmlUrl);
The characters ampersand, greater than, less than, and
apostrophe work fine.
HOWEVER, When the xml file has an mdash(&#X2014) or a rsquo
(&#x2019) in it, my html output in IE shows up with question
marks where these characters are supposed to be.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? I don't understand
why it would work with some special characters and not others?

UPDATE
Compiling from command line I found out that the class definition for oracle.oats.scripting.modules.basic.api.IteratingVUserScript is missing. Do you know what .jar file contains this class?
Thanks.
Fede.

MasterThemeSchema.xml file has invalid data error when customizing layout

Whenever I try to customize my layout for Responsive HTML5 I get an error "MasterThemeSchema.xml file has invalid data". I've tried creating new layouts and editing existing layouts. The first time I click Customize Selected Layout it works. But any attempt after that produces the error. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks.

Has not working over the network fixed the problem? If it has, check both ways again to establish beyond doubt that it is a problem with working on the network. If it does prove to be that, please file a bug but also post back here.

FCP 6 XML file has inexplicable failure to open in PPro CC.

Hello,
I'm trying to open an XML from FCP6 and I keep getting the often mentoned "This project appears to be damaged, it cannot be opened".
Now the odd thing about this, was that it was actually just a trial run as a colleague has not got time to learn PPro and is still larking around with FCP. We are trying to become familiar with how we shall cope with XDCAM media. FCP will have to encode the media into a form that FCP can read. He is using XDCAM Transfer from within FCP.
I wanted to check how I will have to relink the media to my non-encoded XDCAM media. (The answer to this question is simple, but frustrating - I have to re-link it manually - I think)
So I gave him one XDCAM file, with its standard file structure and asked him to make a single sequence with one or two cuts. Then to export a version 4 XML.
Nothing we do will make this blasted XML file work. He has provided me with three different XML files. None of them work.
However, when I boot up an old HD, with FCP6 on it and use the same XDCAM media, I can export a version 4 XML that opens in PPro CC without problem.
So where is this annoying problem occuring?
I have even read through 80 to 100 lines to the XML to see what difference there are. I can't be bothered to look further.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks,
Anthony @ Antimatter Films

Might be faster for him to learn PP after all.

XML file missing some schema after upgrade to 8.8

Hi Experts,
We have already upgraded from SBO 2005A to 8.8. We have Add-on developed ourselves to export sales order, purchase order to xml file from SBO. But the schema <Costingcode> is missing from the file. How to include this schema back to the 8.8 xml file?
Regards,
Eric

Eric,
I am not 100% clear on your question, but there have been changes between Business One 2005A an 8.8. I recommend that you look at the Compatibility Issues/Changes for 8.8 at this link ...
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20f81618-0ab4-2c10-0eab-f5255034e5d7
Also, I am not sure where you originally pulled the CostingCode from (I assume the document lines object?), but it is still available via the Document_Lines Object via the DI API, so you should still be able to access this.

11.2.0.3 db upgrade - adbldxml.pl xml file has "allprod" as NULL

We are doing a new implementation of Oracle EBS . So installed 12.1.1 with 11g R1 through rapid wiz and then did the 12.1.3 apps upgrade followed by the final database 11.2.0.3 upgrade. It is non-RAC database. So straightforward.
Notes followed for 11.2.0.3 database upgrade
a) Oracle 11g upgrade - 1058763.1
b) Autoconfig on db tier - 387859.1 for the appsutil directory on the new 11.2.0.3 oracle home after the upgrade
When i ran the adbldxml.pl after the 11.2.0.3 upgrade to generate the new context file, suprisingly it sets "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL also "dbtype" is showing as VISION. The original xml file (11g R1 home) prior to the 11.2.0.3 upgrade is filled with the RIGHT values for the "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags. Also the "dbtype" is PROD.
I have started the apps after the 11.2.0.3 upgrade and The Oracle Applications Manager => License Manager is still showing all our products and country specific functionalities that i have chosen initially INTACT. (Financials, Service contracts etc.)
But the concern is if i run the adautocfg.sh on the database tier with the new xml file (that contains "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL), will it update the database tables somewhere and disable all the products in License Manager ?
From where does the adbldxml.pl is setting "allprod" and "allshareprod" and "allterr" tags as NULL , whereas the The Oracle Applications Manager => License Manager is still showing all our products and country specific functionalities that i have chosen initially INTACT
-Thanks

What's the best way to create XML file with a schema from a database table?

Hi,
I want to create an XML file from a database table (which has over 600 columns) using XML schema (.xsd file). I want to know the best way to do this.
The output XML file is NOT a direct data dump from the DB table, there�re some logic around it, such as the XML file has some hierarchy with repeating tags.
I have done this using JAXB by creating Java classes form XML schema, but I don�t want to map 600 DB columns to these Java classes manually, and loop through the record set to create repeating tags.
I know there are few tools around now like MapForce (Altova), how do people do these now?
Thanks,
Chandi

Can you use a schema when we compose XML doc from Database tables?
Actually, I'm using SQL Server (sorry, wrong forum). But, I thought a Java tool would have a solution for me.

How to write to an XML file from JDE batch application?

Hello everyone,
I need to write data from a batch application to an XML file. I don't know how to use the XML business functions.
I tried to use XML Publisher but the format is not the same as the client XML. The XML file has some customized format.
I need to do it manually with business functions and ER. Please help me out.
Some business functions I saw are Create XML document, XML Add element and XML Add attribute but the parameters are complex to
use.
Thank you very much.

The XML DB forum is better suited to your question.
It also has a FAQ which details how to read and shred XML into tables as well as other common XML based questions...

Re-Using XML file from decode barcode + extract xml process

I was hoping someone could put me in the right direction here. I am decodeing the information stored in a 2D Bar code and sending this information to an XML file, then I am trying to combine that xml file with a blank PDF template but the process is failing beacuse there are some additional tag fields the XML data from the Decode->Extract XML process.
The XML file from the decode process gives the structure below..notice therer some extra tags (lines 2- 4)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xdp:xdp xmlns:xdp="http://ns.adobe.com/xdp/" xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
<xfa:datasets>
<xfa:data>
<form1>
The XML structure that is expected by the PDF template is as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<form1>
So the xml output of the Decode barcode + Extract XML process has three extra lines of tag. Is there a way I could use a process within liveCycle to clean out those three lines in real-time before sending the xml to be recombined with the PDF template.
Thanks

Hi,
What you may do is to use the SetValue and its xpath builder functions to "serialize" the xml into string, "substring" to remove the extra tags, and "concat" to add the extra tags and then "deserialize" it again to an xml to be merged with your form.

Yasser

Unwanted / Special Characters in XML File Output

Hello Seniors,
I am downloading an XML File which has some code from include's. The XML file is well formatted and the output is fine when I downloaded programs. But this include is from user exits and the code has some commented lines in it also with a blank line in between. Now the problem is that I am getting a "VT" in the XML file which is an unwanted character where there is a blank line in the include "ZXRSAU01". Other than this include, all other includes are downloaded fine.
Here is the code from the include "ZXRSAU01":
     select single * from knvv where kunnr = l_s_icctrcst-kunnr
                                and vkorg = l_s_icctrcst-vkorg
                                and vtweg = l_s_icctrcst-vtweg
                                and spart = l_s_icctrcst-spart.
Here is the output in the XML File:
     select single * from knvv where kunnr = l_s_icctrcst-kunnr
                                and vkorg = l_s_icctrcst-vkorg VT
                                and vtweg = l_s_icctrcst-vtweg
                                and spart = l_s_icctrcst-spart.
Please give me a solutions for this. Each of your answers are very important and will addressed with the best deserved.
Thanks and regards,
Chaitanya.

Hello Madhan,
Firstly, Thank You for the reply. We cannot remove the space in that include because the system is not the original system. Please let me inform you that this is a 4.6C system. We have used CDATA to get the code as it is onto the XML file. I observed that, firstly, the character "#" has come into the internal table with the read report itself. In the debug I saw it to be "0B" in the binary format, but in the downloaded XML file output, it is displayed as "VT". Please let me know how to get rid of this special/unwanted character.
Thanks and regards,
Chaitanya.

Create a Purchase order using the BAPI using the data in the XML file.

Hello Gurus,
here is the scenario can anyone help me how to proceed explaining the procedure?
Create a Purchase order using the BAPI using the data in the XML file.
comprehensive explanations are appreciated.
thanks in advance.

hi,
first use fm "bapi_po_create".
then use fm "BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST"
The demo environment was made with real business scenario in mind, but following subjects need to be addressed in a live implementation:
     No exceptions and error handling is implemented, except the order rejection (e.g. partly delivery);
     In Navision both XML Ports and the XML DOM has been used to integrate with SAP XI, because XML ports has some drawbacks regarding to Namespaces in XML Documents (mandatory in SAP XI);
     A minimum of SAP and Navision customization is required to implement this solution. (e.g. user exit in SAP, Navision XML DOM).

Need to insert values into a table from a XML file

Hi,
I'm an Oracle 9i/10g DBA with quite a few years experience, but I'm new to XML and dealing with it in database terms. I've been given a project that entails pulling XML values out of a file (or 100's of them) and storing them in the database so that they are searchable by end-users. The project is classified as secret so I'm unable to upload the specific XML or any info relating to the structire of the XML or the table I will use to insert the values into - sorry!! So, I've created an XML file with a similar structure to help people understand my predicament.
The end-users only need to search on a subset of the total amount of columns from the table I'll insert data into, although the XML file has a lot more, so I dont need to store the other values - but I will need to store the name of the XML file (or a pointer to it so I know what XML file a particular set of values belong to) in another column of the table along with its associated values.
I've been using the XMLTABLE function with some degree of success, although I had better succes using the XMLSEQUENCE function. However, I found out this is deprecated in 10g and replaced with XMLTABLE, so I guess it's better if I use this in case we ever need to upgrade to 11g.
The main problem I've been having is that some elements in the XML files have multiple values for the one record when all the other records are the same. In terms of storing this in the database, I guess it would mean inserting multiple rows in the table for each element where the value differs. Here is a dumbed down XML file similar to what I've got along with the other SQL I've used:
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>+

CREATE TABLE xmltest OF XMLTYPE;
INSERT INTO xmltest
VALUES(xmltype(bfilename('XML_DIR', 'test.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')));
Consequently, I need to...
1) Retrieve the results from the XML file for all 3 warehouses where multiple values for the same sub-element are shown as 2 rowsthe result set. (I am guessing there will be 4 rows returned as warehouse sub-2 has 2 different elements for <WarehouseName>.
2) Build a case statement into the query so that regardless of the sub-element name (i.e State or County), it is returned into the 1 column, for instance County.
So, if I run a query similar to the following...
select y.WarehouseId, y.Town, y.County, y.Area
from xmltest x, xmltable('/House/Warehouse' .......
I would like to get results back like this...
ID Town County Area
1 Southlake Texas 25000
2 Poole Dorset 40000
2 Solihull West Midlands 40000
3 Fleet hampshire 10000
Sorry for the non-formatting but I hope this all makessense to someone out there with what I'm trying to do.
I appreciate any help whatsoever because, as i said before, I'm totally new to XML and trying to read the vast amount of information there is out there on XML is all a bit daunting.
Many thanks in advance,
Shaun.

I had a look in the dump file for anything obvious, but nothing really stands out. Is there anything obvious in my code that I'm missing or something else which you may think could be causing this error, e.g in the regular expression regexp_substr?
Many thanks,
Shaun.

XML data into Oracle Tables. XML file on Application Server.Oracle Apps R12

Hi All,
My Database version : 11.2.0.2.0
I have an XML file which needs to be loaded into the Database Tables. How ever i do not want to use the XMLTYPE as given below

PmtTypeCount VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeCount' ,
PmtTypeAmt VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeAmt'
Because this way the XML file needs to reside on the DB server.
I am looking into other option of loading the XML file into a CLOB column of a table and reading it from that column.
I did a couple of tests and feel that this way also the XML file has to reside on the Database Server itself. I am not sure if this is correct or if there is any problem with our TEST instance.
++Can anyone let me know if i need to have the XML file on the DB server instead of the Application server to load into a CLOB column of table ??++
++Or++
++Is there any other workaround for me to load XML into Oracle Tables, while having the XML file on Application Server.++
Your immediate help is appreciated. I need to get past this ASAP.
Thanks in Advance.

1) Are you asking me to create a folder on Database directory which points to a folder on the Apps server ?I suggest creating an Oracle directory object (a database object) pointing to a real location (folder) on Application server.
we DONOT want a hand shake between the DB Server and the APPS server.I don't see where the problem is.
I'm not familiar with Apps R12 but there's no doubt the two servers are already communicating, at least App server should be able to access the DB for the whole thing to run.
As I said :
One way or another, the data has to make its way to the database, there's no workaround to that.How do you imagine the data will end up in a database table if it doesn't come to the DB server?
There's no magical method out there, both servers have to communicate at some point.
About client-server approaches (client being here the App server), you can read about accessing the XML DB repository in the XML DB Developer's Guide : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e23094/toc.htm
Other option : SQL*Loader can load a CLOB, or an XMLType column too

EhP1 - Unable to create XML file in Solman

Hi all,
I need some assistance
I am trying to upgrade our XI system to EhP1 - SP04. I use Maintenance Optimizer in our Solution Manager (SAP EHP 1 for SAP Solution Manager 7.0) to select the necessary files for my upgrade. The XI system has been set up in SMSY an given a Logical Component. Also, added to the Solution Landscape. I use the SAPehpi-installer to upgrade XI.
However, when I get to section three, I am supposed to provide the SMSDXML.xml file. This file is not created by our Solution Manager for some reason. The file, as I understand it, is supposed to be generated automatically during Maintenance Optimizer. But when I check the EPS and EPS/in folder of our solman, the file is not to be found. I have also checked the parameter DIR_EPS_ROOT in RZ11. It is correct. The authorization has been set to full on group Everyone, just to check if that could be the problem, but with no luck.
When I use transaction /n/tmwflow/mopz_stack i am able to view the XML file (I assume that it is the correct file), but any attempt to copy the text displayed, and to save it as an XML-file has not resulted in any success.
The only thing I have to go on, is a warning displayed in Maintenance Optimizer, stating: "Warning - No SLM configured in system - <SID>. Every document etc, Iu2019ve read sais that one can use Software Lifecycle Manager as an alternative to Download Basket. I havenu2019t seen SLM listed as a prereq, so I donu2019t believe that this could be the reason why the XML-file is not generated.
Is there some setup/configuration Iu2019ve missed?
Any help will be much appreciated!
Best Regards,
Stian
Notes checked:
1134872 FAQ for stack Delta Files
1022704 Upgrade phase EHP_INCLUSION and SPSTACK_REQUEST
1277035 Solution Manager: EHP4 product data missing

I downloaded the SPSTab.xml from SMP, but it didnt work. It gave an error: "The selected configuration file ("C:EHP1SPSTab.xml") is not usable. Reason: "Stackfile not found""
I have used the dockument in the link you provided as a basis for my upgrade. So I still need this to work in order to upgrade my XI Netweaver 7.0 to Enhancement Package 1...
In the document you provided:
Section 3 SAP Solution Manager
3.1 Support Package Level of SAP Solution Manager (Check - Mine is EHP1)
3.2 System Landscape (SMSY) of SAP Solution Manager (Check - as stated above in opening post)
3.3 SAP Solution Manager Maintenance Optimizer (Check)
3.4 SAP Solution Manager Troubleshooting: (Check)
3.4.4 No Stack Configuration File is generated: This is the core of my problem... I have read the notes listed, and run the IMG activity under Maintenance Optimizer, as per note 1134872. I get an warning stating "SAP ChaRM auto-configuration warnings" This could be the source of the problem, but in the thread Re: Message no. IMG_FASTCONF028 in Charm SolManiac says that it is nothing to worry about.
So to summarise:
I an still unable to generate XML file in Solman, and I am uable to get the XML downloaded from SMP to work with SAPehpi.

Stian
(EDIT: I am however not shure if the settings under SMSY etc are 100% correct, but in my mind, that should prevent Maintenance Optimizer from generating the XML file)

Create an XML file from Java

I'm a new user of XML. I've a very important question:
Is it possible create an XML file using some java package? If yes what package i must use? JDOM is the right product?
Thanks

Yes, JDOM is the right choice for 99% of your work.
DOM is too difficult to use.
That is the reason why JDOM has been developped.

XML file has some extra junk character
