XML upload (with BLOBs) failed

I want to import XML data (with BLOBS) from a APEX-2.0 XML data download.
The upload works fine on another Server having APEX2.0 installed.
Installing on XE results in: XML load error.
Using an XML data export without BLOB works fine.
Any ideas?

sorry, first reply write error
had already looked for language-problems, but there are not:
export from htmldb.oracle.com(APEX2.0)->
NLS_DATABASE_Parameters: AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
atabase is
import in XE(APEX2.1)->
NLS_DATABASE_Parameters: AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
NLS_LANG: AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
"XML load error" occurs only with the BLOB inside, if I export the table data without the blob column, it works.
Importing in an APEX2.0 EE-environment (even if is WE8MSWIN1252 database, not UTF8 database)

XML docs with BLOB

I know it is possible to save an XML document into a BLOB field. However, can anyone tell me if it is possible to pass a BLOB in an XML document. What I mean is can I have an XML document structured as follows? Is so, where can I find the syntax. We receive XML orders via XSQL page and would like to store this data in the DB.
<xml version="1.0">
<books>
<book>
<isbn>032541251</isbn>

Generating xml from oracle 10g with BLOB image

Hello All,
I have employee table with id(primary key), firstname,lastname
and I have portrait table with id(secondary key from employee table),image (blob)
portrait table store images of the employees which are in the employee table.
I want to generate following xml output
<rowset>
<id> </id>

and save this xml as id.xml into a particular folder in the c drive and generate such xmls for each and every row of the emplyee table...
e.g. if i have 200 emplyees with id as 1 ,2 ,.....,200 and their respective portraits into portrait table; then I want to save these as separate xml files with the names 1.xml , 2.xml , .....200.xml inside a folder say : C:\temp...

I was going to write up a longer answer, but then I realized this post contains pretty much all you need
http://www.liberidu.com/blog/?p=365
I like using XMLElement/XMLForest to build the XML as it gives you the most control.
In the first example on Marco's website, you would just use dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file to write each file out to disk with a CURSOR FOR loop instead of doing a single OPEN/FETCH/CLOSE. The cursor would return two columns, employee.id and the generated XML. The filename would be based on the "id" column returned by the CURSOR.
Assumption: The machine that Oracle resides on has the "C:\temp" directory that you want to write to. You cannot use this method to right files onto a client machine.
Hope that gets you started.

How to retrieve xml file from BLOB and display on browser with css/xslt

Hi All,
I am new to xml. I am storing my xml file into BLOB in database. Now in my jsp page I want to retrieve this xml file from BLOB and display in HTML/CSS/XSLT form...
Pl. guide me.. any docs..?? Logic...??
Thanks in Advance.
Sandeep Oza

Hello Sandeep!
I'm not familiar with jsp but logic should be as follows:
-in jsp page instantiate XML parser
-load specified BLOB into parser
Now you may traverse the XML tree or you might load XSL file and use transform method to transform XML according to XSL file.
I have an example where I'm selecting XML straight from relational database and then transform it using XSL into appropriate HTML output, but it's written in PSP.
You can try http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp for basics on XML, CSS, XSL. It's easy to follow with good examples.

What can I do so that this table gets imported correctly?
Also tell me "whether the BLOB is stored in different tablespace than the default tablespace of the user?"
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
U can either
1) create a tablespace with the same name in destination where you are trying to import.
2) get the ddl of the table, modify the tablespace name to reflect the existing tablespace name in destination and run the ddl in the destination database, and run your import command with option ignore=y--> which will ignore all the create errors.

XML data from BLOB to CLOB - character set conversion

Hi All,
I'm trying to solve a problem with a character set conversion in PL/SQL in the following scenario:
1. source is an XML as a BLOB variable.
2. target is an XML as a CLOB variable.
3. the problem I have is the following:
- database character set is set to UTF-8
- XML character set could be anything (UTF-8, ISO 8859-1, ISO 8859-2, ASCII, ...)
- I need to write a procedure which converts the source BLOB content into the target CLOB taking into account the XML encoding and converts it into the DB default character set (UTF8).
I've been able to implement a simple conversion function. However, this function expects static XML encoding ISO-8859-1. The main part of the function looks as follows:
buffer := UTL_RAW.cast_to_varchar2(
UTL_RAW.convert(
DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(source_blob_variable, 16000, pos)
, 'American_America.UTF8'
, 'American_America.we8iso8859p1')
Does anyone have an idea how to rewrite the code to handle "any" XML encoding in the source BLOB file? In other words, is there a function in Oracle which converts XML character set names into Oracle character set values (ISO-8859-1 to we8iso8859p1, UTF-8 to UTF8, ...)?
Thanks a lot for any help.
Julius

I want to pass a BLOB to some "createXML" procedure and get a proper XMLType in UTF8 character set, properly converted from whatever character set is the input in.As per documentation the generated XML has always the encoding set at the client side depending on NLS_LANG (default UTF-8), regardless of the input encoding, so I don't see a need to parse the PI of the XML:

Sending mail with attachment fails on MAC Mail and WRP400.

Sending mail with attachment fails on MAC Mail and WRP400.
We have hundreds of WRP400 connected with Mac (Machintosh) computers. No special configurations are applied (no virtual server or DMZ). Web navigation, P2P programs and sending mail without attachment work right.
The problem is the impossibility to send mails with medium or big size files attachment from MAC Mail.
If we use Windows PCs or a different linksys routers (eg. WRT54G) the problem not happens.
We have upgraded WRP400 firmware version from 1.00.06 to 2.00.05 but the result is the same. Sending mail with attachment using Mac fails.
We tried to configure WRP400 with DMZ to a particular MAC. We tried to configure Virtual server on tcp 25 port of a MAC. The result is always the same.
This is a WRP400 bug? Windows PCs work right. MAC and MAC mail works right with other linksys router.
We need help. Thanks.

The problem was fixed since beta firmware 2.00.11.
I think that this issue was caused from a bug that decrease upload bitrate of WRP400 after some days of activity.
See more details on Cisco forum under title "WRP400 stops responding after browsing certain websites".
Thanks.

Using XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace

I have a XML source code here.

      <job:location PUReferenceID="3711">Sydney - Inner Suburbs & CBD</job:location>
    </item>

</rss>
I want to use XSLT to extract value of a XML node with namespace <job:location>, and the returned value should be string 'Sydney - Inner Suburbs & CBD'. I tried a few XSL code below, but failed with error or nothing was returned.
<xsl:value-of select="job:location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job/location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="job\location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
<xsl:value-of select="location" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
This might be an easy question for you, but I would appreciate if anyone can help.

Hi Suncorp IT Learner,
We need to tell the XSLT that some elements are in another namespace. Copy the xmls declarations for the prefixes you need to use. Then use the xsl format as:
<xsl: value-of select=”job:location/@PUReferenceID”/>
In following issue, Chriztian has a good explanation:

Loading XML file with missing elements dynamically through ODI

Hi Guys ,
I have the below xml file with two nodes Employee and Address. On a daily basis , sometimes the address element might not come in from the source xml file , but my interface has columns mapped to address elements, and hence it can fail due to the source element not being found in the file or data might not get loaded due to the 'and' condition in the sql query generated between the employee and address elements. Is there a way where i can load the data dynamically where i can search in the file only for the elements (Employee) present and load data only for those elements dynamically?
XML File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EMP>
<Empsch>
<Employee>
<EmployeeID>12345</EmployeeID>
<Initials>t</Initials>
<LastName>john</LastName>
<FirstName>doe</FirstName>
</Employee>
<Address>
<WorkPhone>12345</WorkPhone>
<WorkAddress>Test 234</WorkAddress>
</Address>
</Empsch>
</EMP>
Thanks ,

How integrate azure media services with blob storage?

I need to upload lots of content over blob storage which contains different types of files.
Now my problem is that files contains lots of videos also.
I want to way by which i can integrate azure media services with blob storage so that i can stream that video.
So probably i don't want to upload my videos on azure media services storage because i want all my content to be at one place which is blob storage.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks,

Hi Rajesh
Every Media Services account needs a blob storage account associated with it. You can choose an existing blob storage account for that purpose. In order for Media Services to work with your videos you need to create an asset using the Media Services APIs.
That call results in the creation of a container which has the name in the following format asset-<AssetId>. The actual video files need to go as blobs within this container but these files need to be known to Media Services and you can do so by adding
AssetFiles to the asset using the Media Services APIs. Once you do that the asset is well known to Media Services and you can stream it.

I read files from the web, but there is a XML tag
with the encoding attribute in the RSS file.If you are quite sure that you have an encoding attribute set to ISO-8859-1 then I expect that your RSS file has non-ISO-8859-1 character though I thought all bytes -128 to 127 were valid ISO-8859-1 characters!
Many years ago I had a problem with an XML file with invalid characters. I wrote a simple filter (using FilterInputStream) that made sure that all the byes it processed were ASCII. My problem turned out to be characters with value zero which the Microsoft XML parser failed to process. It put the parser in an infinite loop!
In the filter, as each byte is read you could write out the Hex value. That way you should be able to find the offending character(s).

Still problems serializing xml-docs with xml-parser for java v2.0.2.7

Hi !
I'm using the Oracle XML Parser 2.0.2.7.0 and get some problems when serializing the XMLDocument.
In one class (DOMOut) I parse a xml-file with the oracle.xml.parser.v2.DOMParser, then obtain the XMLDocument and write it to System.out
In another class (DOMIn) I fetch the XMLDocument from System.in, search for a given Element and print it's TextValue (if existing) to System.out
That is where the error occurs.
I get the XMLDocument from System.in but the returning NodeList from doc.getElementsByTagName() is empty. [nl.getLength()==0] even if it shouldn't be.
Look at this code and output:
[DOMOut]
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(url);
XMLDocument doc = (XMLDocument)parser.getDocument();
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(System.out);
out.writeObject(doc); out.flush();
[DOMIn]
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(System.in);
XMLDocument doc = (XMLDocument)in.readObject();
doc.print(System.out);
NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName("Name");
System.out.println("Length of NodeList: "+nl.getLength());
if (nl.getLength()==0)
System.out.println(argv[0] + ": not in this document!");
else {
XMLNode node = (XMLNode) nl.item(nl.getLength()-1);
System.out.println(node.getNodeName() + ": " + (node.getFirstChild()).getNodeValue());
This is the relevant code.
I javac both classes and then do this:
java DOMOut xmltestfile.xml > xx
java DOMIn Name < xx
And get this as output:
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE course [
<!ELEMENT course (Name,Dept,Instructor,Student)>
<!ELEMENT Name ((#PCDATA)*)*>
<!ELEMENT Dept ((#PCDATA)*)*>
<!ELEMENT Instructor (Name)>
<!ELEMENT Student (Name)*>
]>
<course>
<Name>Calculus</Name>
<Dept>Math</Dept>
<Instructor>
<Name>Jim Green</Name>
</Instructor>
<Student>
<Name>Jack</Name>
<Name>Mary</Name>
<Name>Paul</Name>
</Student>
</course>
Length of NodeList: 0
Name: not in this document!
Has anyone an idea?
If I do all this stuff without serializing it works.
If I do not search for argv[0], but the string "Name" it fails.
If I do search for "*" it works fine!
I'm very confused could anybody please help me a bit??
Stefan.
