XPath expression query.

Hi all
I have this XPATH in my Receiver Determination
(/p1:CREMAS03/IDOC/E1LFA1M/LIFNR = "1000")
Prefix: p1
Namespace: urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages
This is the payload of the XML message.
<CREMAS03>
     <IDOC>
         <E1LFA1M>
              <LIFNR>1000</LIFNR>
         </E1LFA1M>
       </IDOC>
</CREMAS03>
Is there anything wrong with the XPath expression? I am getting Receiver cannot be be found.

Hi,
Yes , this is correct expression only

XPath expression failed to execute.

Hi Everybody ,
I am working AIA PIP 3.1 for JDE E1.I am facing some errors so that i can't proceed.
See the log errors as below:
javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: XPath expression failed to execute. An error occurs while processing the XPath expression; the expression is ora:processXSLT('xsl/Xform_BillOfMaterialsListABM_to_BillOfMaterialsListAXML.xsl',bpws:getVariableData('InitialLoadBillOfMaterialsListReqMsg','InitialLoadBillOfMaterialsList'),bpws:getVariableData('Parameters')). The XPath expression failed to execute; the reason was: oracle.fabric.common.xml.xpath.XPathFunctionException: javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: oramds:/deployed-composites/default/InitialLoadBillOfMaterialsListJDEE1toAgileImpl_rev1.0/xsl/Xform_BillOfMaterialsListABM_to_BillOfMaterialsListAXML.xsl<Line 18, Column 271>: XML-22044: (Error) Extension function error: Error invoking 'lookupXRef':'oracle.tip.xref.exception.RepositoryException: lookup could not find values in column name "AGILE_01" for table name "oramds:/apps/AIAMetaData/xref/ITEM_ITEMID.xref" using reference column name "JDEE1_01" and reference value "731882::M30" Please ensure lookup criteria has a match.'. Check the detailed root cause described in the exception message text and verify that the XPath query is correct.
Please reply me ASAP,
Waiting for your response.....

Hi,
Ya i checked the data for same table,but i didn't get any XREF related information in xref_data table.
Did you mean that, data should already present under AIAFPINST_XREF.Probably xref is meant for storing dynamic value.
Please check the above error and reply me soon.

Using the variable placeholder ? in an XPath expression

I'm trying to using the variable operator (?) in an Oracle prepared statement used in a query where clause. Here is the query:
select xt.APPLICATION_NAME, xt.VERSION, xt.EVENT_TYPE, xt.SENDING_SITE, xt.RECEIVING_SITE, xt.EVENT_ID
      from AUDITED_EVENT_XML_MIN e,
         XMLTable(XMLNAMESPACES('http://gov/va/med/datasharing/audit/endpoint/audit' AS "xae"),
                '/xae:auditable-event'

                VERSION          VARCHAR2(255) PATH 'xae:version',
                EVENT_TYPE       VARCHAR2(255) PATH 'xae:event-type',

Is this a supportable feature or am I doing something wrong?
I didn't see any examples in the Oracle XML DB Developers Guide where there was a ? in an XPath expression.
I also tried "?" with the same issue...

I incorporated this suggestion and it worked very well. Thanks!
Now I have converted my solution to use a structured index. As such, I want to write the where clauses in terms of column names rather than XPath expressions.
I hoped it was as simple as changing the code that generates the XPath expression to generate a SQL expression. After making that change, I'm now getting this error:
Caused by: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00920: invalid relational operator

     at gov.va.med.datasharing.audit.web.dao.jdbc.AuditableEventsQueryDAOImpl.getAuditableEventsByDate(AuditableEventsQueryDAOImpl.java:150)It seemed to me that if it worked for the XPath expression that it should also work for the SQL expression.
The static SQL is:
SELECT PK_ID, EVENT_TYPE, OUTCOME, SENDING_SITE, RECEIVING_SITE, CREATED_TIME, EVENT_ID, PATIENT_ID FROM
(SELECT rownum as rn, PK_ID, EVENT_TYPE, OUTCOME, SENDING_SITE, RECEIVING_SITE, CREATED_TIME, EVENT_ID, PATIENT_ID FROM

        WHERE aet.CREATED_TIME BETWEEN ? AND ?
             AND ?
      ) ORDER BY CREATED_TIME desc
    ) WHERE rn > ? and rn <= ?So I'm thinking that Oracle must perform strong checking in SQL, not allowing the '=' operator to be substituted. If I run this query in Toad, replacing the ? with the SQL, it runs fine...
Can someone tell me whether or not this is a legal substitution?
The SQL that runs in Toad is:
SELECT PK_ID, EVENT_TYPE, OUTCOME, SENDING_SITE, RECEIVING_SITE, CREATED_TIME, EVENT_ID, PATIENT_ID FROM
(SELECT rownum as rn, PK_ID, EVENT_TYPE, OUTCOME, SENDING_SITE, RECEIVING_SITE, CREATED_TIME, EVENT_ID, PATIENT_ID FROM

XPath Expression

Hey Guys...
Currently I am working on one Xpath expression issue..as described below;
Its a File to Idoc scenario ...where in I need to check the two Item level nodes and based on that need to produce the target Idoc. and my souce structure look like this....
DT_Input
       Header ---    1 to 1
             H1
             H2
             H3
       Item -
     0 - Unbounded
          Item_1
          Item_2
          Item_3
Query : If the Item_1 and Item_3 are not equal AND Item_1 not equal to blank ...then I need to produce the target Idoc otherwise not!
Can you please help me out!!!
Cheers.,
S

You could create an advance user defined function.
fed your function with the 3 values (Item_1 and Item3).
Inside the function, check the values of Item_1 and Item_3 nodes.
What is the result of your query? I mean, if your query is meet, Which value do you want to populate in your IDOC?
You should use this sentence: result.addValue(a[0]). It is supposed a is the value returned by the funcion.
If you don`t want create the node in the IDOC, use this other one: result.addValue(ResultListCC).

Carlos

Help Page Error: Using XPath expressions as list indexes and map keys

The help page says for maps to use the XPath expression

thanks a lot for your help..
there are total 162 records in the v$open_cursor for that user.
among that the open cursor is only 4 and open-recursive cursor is only 6 for that user.
in my session i am executing only the renaming of the constraints and nothing more.
When i have queried the v$open_cursor for cursor_type='OPEN' for all the users, then i got that it has exceeded the value of open_cursors parameter.
So how can i resolve that....

Any help?

Ok. I have figured out how to place the condition (variable value) inside a concatentated string. So my final result is the actual XPATH Query-Database statement. But the problem is it is being returned as a String. How can I turn that final string into the XPATH expression I need? I suspect another <COPY> block could pull this off but I am not sure how to do it.

Hi friends
Please, could anyone help-me with this issue? My BPEL process was working yesterday and stoped today...
I think I´m facing a namespace problem.

</part>
</RejectionMessage>
XPath Query:
bpws:getVariableData('RejectionMessage','message','/ns2:RejectedMessage/@ns2:RejectionId')
In the first case, it works.
In the second case, it raises a "The result is empty for the XPath expression" error.
As you can see, this process is used as a "Rejection Handler" process: It implements the interface defined in RejectionMessage.wsdl
Could you help me?
Thanks in advance

Hi All
I find a workaround to the problem. I´m almost sure it is a bug in BPEL.
As you can see on my previous post, the diferences between the two messages is that the attributes have qualified names on one message and unqualified names on the other: ns1:BatchId, ns1:PrimaryKey...
The schema definition for this message (JCAErrorHandling.xsd) define that attribute names MUST be qualified (attributeFormDefault="qualified"). The problem is that the File Adapter sends the message with unqualified attribute names!!
So I edited JCAErrorHandling.xsd (<ORACLE_HOME>\integration\orabpel\system\xmllib\jca) file, changing it to attributeFormDefault="unqualified".
The correct solution is to fix File Adapter to send the message with qualified names, so I´m opening a Service Request at Oracle Metalink.
Thanks.

ORABPEL-09503 Invalid xpath expression in a CASE expression

Hi I have the following case statement in my BPEL process -
<switch name="checkAuthenticateResult">
<case condition="upper-case(string(bpws:getVariableData('g_InvokeAuthenticateTicketOutput','OutputParameters','/ns13:OutputParameters/X_RETURN_STATUS')))='S' AND upper-case(string(bpws:getVariableData('g_InvokeAuthenticateTicketOutput','OutputParameters','/ns13:OutputParameters/X_TKT_VALID')bpws:getVariableData('isAuthenticCaller'))) = 'T'">

When I run my process in 10.1.2, it works fine, but when I run it in 10.1.3.1, it errors out with the following error -

Do you think there was a bug in the expression that has surfaced due to some additional validations in 10.1.3.1 or am I missing something here?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Thanks.
RV

AND upper-case(string(bpws:getVariableData('g_InvokeAuthenticateTicketOutput','OutputParameters','/ns13:OutputParameters/X_TKT_VALID')bpws:getVariableData('isAuthenticCaller'))) = 'T'"
what is this bold part about? this looks wrong to me..

Concat Operation failing.[Error ORABPEL-10039]: invalid xpath expression

Hi ,
I am trying to concat two values which are as mentioned below
concat(bpws:getVariableData('paramsVar','/ns7:parameters/ns7:item[ns7:name='ContractNumber']/ns7:value'),bpws:getVariableData('AccumilateEmail','/ns1:AccumilatePLAContracts/ns1:AccumilatePLAType[$PLACount]/ns1:ContractInfoType[$ContractInfoTypeCount]/ns1:ContractNumber'))
to /ns7:parameters/ns7:item[ns7:name='ContractNumber']/ns7:value (which is same as first parameter of concat operation)
the error is [Error ORABPEL-10039]: invalid xpath expression

I also tried converting both the variables of concat to string and then giving to concat operation. please let me know what could be the possible way to do this

Hi,
try storing the values of the below into a separate variables var1,var2 and then use concat(bpws:getVariableData('var1'),bpws:getVariableData(var2))....also try using the predicate[] without
bpws:getVariableData for the below variables...for this in the assign activity create copy operation window....u see the xpath text box and u can mention the predicate values there...some
thing like */ns7:parameters/ns7:item[ns7:name='ContractNumber']/ns7:value* , *ns1:AccumilatePLAContracts/ns1:AccumilatePLAType[$PLACount]/ns1:ContractInfoType
[$ContractInfoTypeCount]/ns1:ContractNumber* instead of the below values
bpws:getVariableData('paramsVar','/ns7:parameters/ns7:item[ns7:name='ContractNumber']/ns7:value')
bpws:getVariableData('AccumilateEmail','/ns1:AccumilatePLAContracts/ns1:AccumilatePLAType[$PLACount]/ns1:ContractInfoType[$ContractInfoTypeCount]/ns1:ContractNumber')

Xpath expression don't work

i need to select two "sect" by idtry {
            // parse the XML as a W3C Document
            DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
            Document doc = builder.parse(new File("book1.xml"));
            XPath xpath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
            String expression = "//chapter/sect[@id='secC'] | //chatpter/sect[@id='secA']"; //select two attributes (this don't works, why?)
            // obtain the element as a node.
            Node node = (Node)xpath.evaluate(expression, doc, XPathConstants.NODE);but using the same Xpath expression on xsl the expressions works

The result of the query consists of two nodes. If you want to access both of them, use the NodeList type in place of the Node type:NodeList nodeList = (NodeList)xpath.evaluate(expression, doc, XPathConstants.NODESET);

XPath Expression won't evaluate

Hi,
I am using the ora:doc() function to read an xml and XPath to get extract particular values from it. The issue is that the XPath expression doesnt evaluate correctly on Oracle BPEL process manager where as the same expression is being evaluated correctly in XMLSPY with XPath 1.0.
The XML that I am trying to read is of the format
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<n:CHNotification xmlns:n="http://www.example.org" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.org

          <n:mailcc>String</n:mailcc>

          <n:body>String</n:body>
          <n:additionalbody>String</n:additionalbody>
     </Notification>
</n:CHNotification>
The function being used in OracleBPEL Process manager is
ora:doc('${server_url}/xmllib/notification.xml', //Notification[@id="String"]/n:mailto)
Can somebody please tell me where I could be going wrong?....It'll be a great help.
Thanks,

I have the same problem posted in the constants discussion
Hi
I am trying out the xml file solution. I have places an XML-file in the xmllib location. The file has the following content :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8">
<bpel-domain>
<preferences>
<property name="defaultRentepercentage"> 0.3 </property>
</preferences>
</bpel-domain>
In the Assign step in BPEL I do the following
orcl:lookup-xml('http://localhost:9700/orabpel/xmllib/trials-properties.xml', '/bpel-domain/preferences/property[@name="defaultRentepercentage"]')
The error I get when running this is the following
XPath expression failed to execute.
Error while processing xpath expression, the expression is "orcl:lookup-xml("http://localhost:9700/orabpel/xmllib/trials-properties.xml", "/bpel-domain/preferences/property[@name="defaultRentepercentage"]")", the reason is ExtFuncFunction.
Please verify the xpath query.
I have tried the xpath expression in XMLSpy, and there it seems to work
Am i missing something ?

The XPath expression problem

Hi everyone,
I developed a workflow. I builded and deployed successfully.
And I assing this workflow to a policy.
I create a request, but this request gave a fail.
Error in <assign> expression: <to> value is empty at line "181". The XPath expression : "" returns zero node, when applied to document shown below:
Line 181 :
<copy>
<from variable="inputVariable" part="payload"
query="/ns3:process/ns4:RequestID"/>
<to variable="initiateTaskInput" part="payload"
query="/ns2:initiateTask/task:task/task:payload/task:RequestID"/>
</copy>
It seems that I could not take requestID.
Do you have any idea ?
Thanks for your help.
Regards

How did you resolve the issue? We're facing the same problem.

Selecting nodes using an XPath expression

Assuming that I have a DOM Document object containing a valid XML file, what is the quickest way to select a subset of nodes from the document using an XPath expression. I would like the results in either a NodeList object or another Document object.
Microsoft has a way to do this using a single method named 'selectNodes'. Why is querying an XML document so hard to do using java? Am I missing something?

In case you're using Xalan take a look at org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI. The function selectNodeList(...) probably does what you want.
Good luck.
