XML Publisher question - Not generating a valid XML file

I am working through an Oracle document that walks you through creating an XML Pub report. I am using HCM 8.9, Tools 8.49.15 and it has XML Pub installed and I have the Microsoft plug-in installed
I have created a query and have downloaded an rtf template and now am on a page where you enter your data source and then click ‘Generate’ for the sample data file. I did it and it created ‘PERSONAL_DATA_PAY.XML’ which is created from a PS Query. However if I click on ‘PERSONAL_DATA_PAY.XML’ it generates a blocky text file that is not an XML file and I can’t go any further.
Do you know why it’s not generating a valid XML file when I click on 'generate'?
Thanks

You mean to say that you create a new data source by specifying Data Source Type as 'PS Query' and Data Source ID as your query name, you are not able to generate a valid XML file (by clicking on Generate link).
did you cross check your query by running it?
On field change of Generate link, PeopleSoft uses PSXP_RPTDEFNMANAGER and PSXP_XMLGEN app packagaes and query objects to create the file
It should work if you query is valid..

The specified UNC path does not contain a valid WIM file or you do not have permission to access it. please specify a valid path

I loaded 4 captured images into SCCM via the Add Operating System Image Wizard 2 months ago.
I have since captured another image to the same location (which is the SCCM site server) and tried to add it to the server.
I am getting error
the specified UNC path does not contain a valid WIM file or you do not have permission to access it. please specify a valid path
nothing has changed on the site server that i can think of.
i am domain admin and permissions have not changed.
anyone got any answers?
please help i am baffled

I am having similer issues.
Win 2003 SP2 - SCCM2007 SP2 R2 single site with MDT2010 intergrated but can not get a MDT2010 TS Captured WIM to import into SCCM OS Images "Invalid WIM". allso i tried to mount the MDT WIM image without luck (Invalid Image). however a SCCM TS
will Capture and I can Import it into OS Images. it seems like something is amiss with MDT or WAIK possibly.

XML publisher report not generating output for huge XML files

Changed Depreciation Projections Report output type to XML.
Defined a Data Definition and a new Data Template (RTF) for this report.
Ran the Depreciation Projection Report to generate the XML output.
Ran the XML Report Publisher report to generate teh PDF/Excel output of the above report.
Output generated for smaller XML files. When XML size is big, the program is running for hours without generating the output.
Teh RTF template is basically a matrix report in which the number of columns in the report is based on the number of periods the report is run for.
The same is not working in the Desktop version also. The system is hanging when i try to view the preview pdf.
The XML file size is approximately 33 MB.
Please let me know if there is any way we can increase the memory size to see the output.
Thanks,
Ram.

Why is XJC not generating any JAXB implementation files?

I'm running xjc.exe on a Windows XP machine via a .bat file to generated the binding Java files for my .xsd file. JDK 1.6.0_16 is installed. The bat file looks like this:
xjc.exe -p my.packagepath xsdfile.xsd
Those aren't really the file and package names I'm using but you get the point. i run the .bat file and it runs without any error. It happily and without complaint generates a couple .java files in the my\packagepath directory. But that's it. There is no impl sub-directory being created at all. I've used JAXB on a project like this a couple years back and I see that the impl directory and a runtime folder with several more auto-generated files is there for that project. But it doesn't seem to be working now and I've forgotten how I got it to work last time. What am I missing or forgetting to do?

From the Javadoc: 'Since the JAXB 2.0 specification has defined a portable runtime, it is no longer necessary for the JAXB RI to generate **/impl/runtime packages.'

XML Publisher Report not generating the PDF output.

Hi,
I am trying to develop a XML Publisher Report in R12 Vision Instance.
I have developed the rdf report and concurrent program with XML as output format. Ran the concurrent program and I got the XML output. Based on XML output I have created the rtf template. Using both the template and xml output I have created in Data Definition and Template in XML Publisher Administrator Responsibility. Now I am comming to the concurrent program and running the program, here instead of generating the PDF output it is generating again the XML output and concurrent program completing with warning status.
When I am trying to do the same in 11i Vision Instance, Concurrent Program completing with normal status and when trying to view the output it is saying "Unable to Publish output for the Processed Request".
Kindly please help me out in this issue.
Thanks,
Manasa.

Hi Mahesh,
Here the concurrent programs are not erroring out. It is completing with Warning status and when we click on View Output the output is coming in XML format instead of PDF, this is in R12 Vision Instance.
In 11i Vision Instance, concurrent program is completing with Normal Status but when we click on View Output it is saying "Unable to Publish output for specified request".
Thanks,
Manasa.

Externalize Strings not generating translations in CSV file

Hi Gurus,
I need to do presentation layer externalization, hence in the process of doing it, i have activated by clikcing on externalize table on the subject area and after that i go to tools-> utilities -> externalize strings -> execute
the csv file it is generating is only having english values, i am not getting the translations of other languages in the csv. I m struck there.
Pls help!!
Thanks,
Sreekanth

Hi Sreekanth,
The CSV File generated will be in english only. If you are trying to change everything in OBIEE Presenatation layer to a different language, then you have to do addition steps after exporting the CSV file to your machine.
Look into this article: ( I believe this is what you are looking for );

Problem-Starting InDesign Server for use with CORBA / Java and IOR file not generated

I'm trying to start Indesign Server cs3 for use with Corba, as per the document the server should generate the start-up message like this..
InDesignServer -iorfile c:\ior.txt -pluginpath Server\Corba
[server] Writing IOR to ... and it should generate the IOR file
but I'm getting the usual start-up message and the IOR file is not generated, I hope IOR file is required for Java component interaction with IDS, kindly help me to solve this.
Thanks in advance.

[From Susan Doan, who is having trouble posting to the forum today}:
It looks like the example command line in the "Intro to InDesign Server" pdf is using curly quotes instead of straight quotes. If you copy the command from the pdf and paste it in your command shell, it won't work because of the curly quotes.
You can run the command without the quotes as Rich has said, but, as will all command lines, if your path contains a space, you will need to put quotes (straight ones!) around the path.
Thanks,
Ole

XML PUBLISHER Questions

Hi All,
Following questions restrict to use of functionalities of XMLP:
1. What could be functionality of Delivery manager of XMLP?
2. How could process Delivery manager an user request?
3. Delivery manager is full of Java API’s that means apps developer must know java. Am I correct? If it is Yes, what are java concepts need know so that developer can do his job successfully?
4. What could be sub-template concept in XMLP? Please give one practical scenario.
5. One scenario: I want generate group of invoices in PDF format and each invoice must generate in fresh page.
XML Input to Template: Report output (output format in XML)
Input parameters: Customer or Print date (i.e. all invoices of specified customer should populate)
I could not able to generate each invoice in fresh page. Is it possible through XMLP?
6. XSL: is language and used for transformation i.e. one form document to another form document (xml =>XHTML) am I correct?
7. When do we go for XSL implementation in XMLP? Please provide example.
8. Where do we write XSL code in template? Assume template I am using RTF form field method.
Any help would appreciate.
Thanks,
[email protected]
Date: 13-Aug-07.
Hi All,
What could be the difference between delivery manager and Document Processor engine?
Could we use both for deliver XMLP documents to different Delivery channels?

Hi All,
I am also facing new problem while i am going to register template in following environment:
Oracle applications version: 11.5.10.2
XML publisher Version: 5.0.0
My file size: 65 KB with out image
363 KB with company logo
The RTF used English language characters and want to register for English – USA
My RTF template works fine in preview mode in Word. I go to upload it via XML Publisher Adminstator and I get a screen that just says "You have encountered an unexpected error. Please contact the System Administrator for assistance."
What? The only option is Log out. Is there a way to validate my template to know what could possibly be wrong with it?
Please let me know if any other information require about RTF template.
Any help would appreciate.
Thanks,

P.S: I do not know how to attach file in forum. please give me information how to attach file form so that i can attach RTF file.

Validating xml in pipeline - if not valid drop file in invalid folder

My goal is to receive an xml file through a customized pipeline so I can validate it. If it's valid I drop it in 'valid' folder. Then my orchestration will pick it from that location and do whatever it will do with it. This works fine.
But if the xml file is NOT valid I want to drop it in a an 'INVALID' folder and have a different orchestration pick it up and send an email to me. Is this possible? In my pipeline I don't have a dissambler, just an XMLValidator with the appropriate
schema in the document schemas collection. When I do drop in an 'invalid' xml file according to the schema, the pipeline is suspended. How can I drop that invalid xml file into a folder?
I've been learning/working with BizTalk for about 3 months. I'm trying to keep this simple and avoid doing any custom c# code until I'm more comfortable with BizTalk.
thank you in advance for your expert advice.
Jean Stiles

Hi Jean,
Your validation pipeline should promote the "MessageType" property of the message (if the orchestration doesn't have any other filters and if the orchestration's receive shape has a message type pointing to specific message). Its seems that when your validation
component validate any incoming message, after its process it shall promote the message type property of the message. Other wise you would not have any subscriber for the message published. The error "The published message could not be routed because no subscribers
were found" is due to this issue. i.e your orchestration subscription doesn't match to the message outputted by your custom vaidation component.
Not sure what is the full functionality of your custom validation component. if its simply validating the message, you can still get this functionality by using XML-Receive pipeline and set the property "Validate Document" to "True" and by specifying the
"DocumentSpecNames" to the schema which you want to validate the incoming message against.
If you're using custom pipeline to do standard validation, then follow like this:
Receive Port (with Enable routing for Failed Messages enabled) Receive Location with XML-Receive pipeline (Validate Document" to "True" and by specifying the "DocumentSpecNames" to the schema which you want to validate )
Bind the Receive Port to Orchestration - Do your process as normal
Create a send port with above filter for ErrorReport and configure this send port to send the invalid message to your invalid folder.
If you're using custom pipeline to something more than standard validation of XML-Receive pipeline , then follow like this:
Receive Port (with Enable routing for Failed Messages enabled) Receive Location with Your custom validation pipeline component.
Ensure your custom pipeline component promotes the message type property as
string systemPropertyNS = @”http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003/system-properties”;
outboundMsg.Context.Promote(“MessageType”, systemPropertyNS, “http://NameSpace#RootNode”);
replace the outboundMsg to the outbound message you output in your custom validation component. And message type to relevant value as yours. Or by some means ensure your custom pipeline output the message with matces to subcription expected by your Orchestration.
Bind the Receive Port to Orchestration - Do your process as normal
Create a send port with above filter for ErrorReport and configure this send port to send the invalid message to your invalid folder.

The Oracle documentation has a good overview of the options available

Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.

Setup.exe fails, folder " "does not contain a valid media info file 'mediainfo.xml'"

I'm trying to run the SQL Server R2 setup.exe, and all I get is a command window popping up briefly, then nothing.
This actually affects all SQL Installers that I have on my machine:
2008R2
2012

If I run the setup.exe from the command line, I get this:

I've seen a few suggestions elsewhere in search results, but nothing has worked so far.
I've previously run the 2008R2 installer and the 2012 installer without problems, so I'm not sure what has changed, or how to get round it.
I'm running on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 64 bit with up-to-date Windows Updates.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
