Re: [Exist-open] Java 1.8.0 won't upgrade to the newest Java version.

[Michael W. <wes...@ja...>]

Please run:

export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

java --version


if that works, add the above export command to your .zshrc right after
setting the JAVA_HOME environmental variable.

Hope this helps.

[Exist-open] I couldn't create the java virtual machine

[Ted H. <meg...@gm...>]

When I ran the command java --version, I got the following errors:

Error could not create the Java Virtual Machine
Error a fatal exception has occurred.  Program will exit.

When I ran the command java -version, I received the following feedback:

java version 1.8.0_171
Java SE runtime environment (build 1.8.0_171-b11

I don't know how to fix this.  Can anyone help me?

Re: [Exist-open] Java 1.8.0 won't upgrade to the newest Java version.

[Ted H. <meg...@gm...>]

I tried to install Java.  When I did I ran java --version.  I got an error
message.

Re: [Exist-open] Updating Java version and installing eXist 6

[Ted H. <meg...@gm...>]

I probably should have told you earlier, but my current Java version is
1.8.0_171-b11.  I tried to upgrade this version, but this computer won't
let me.  That's why I need assistance.

[Exist-open] disable guest account in order to prevent anonymous access

[Michael P. <mic...@gm...>]

Dear all,

I want to prevent anonymous access to my eXist database altogether. So I
created a placeholder user, placed it in the guest group, and disabled the
guest account (using sm:set-account-enabled),
as suggested in the eXist book (p. 137).

Now sm:is-account-enabled('guest') returns false, but this has no effect on
anonymous access.

Any ideas why this doesn't work as expected? There are of course other ways
to prevent anonymous access, but this one would be very elegant.

(I'm running eXist 6.0.1 on Ubuntu Focal Fossa with OpenJDK.)

Michael

Re: [Exist-open] Updating Java version and installing eXist 6

[Claudius T. <cla...@gm...>]

Hi,

You can install eXist 6 as is mentioned in
http://exist-db.org/exist/apps/doc/basic-installation. As to the JVM, I
tested on my machine, with Ubuntu 20.04.6, and openjdk 11.0.20.1
2023-08-24, and eXist installed just fine. I do not know if it is working
with Java 12+ (see https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/issues/3375).

Re: [Exist-open] Job scheduler

[Nicolas S. <sou...@gm...>]

Hi,

Thank you for your answer.

I finally found the solution, the issue didn't come from the xmldb:login or
SetUid/SetGid bits on the XQuery file's permissions but from the security
I've add to the application, removing the guest user's ability to execute a
function.

I've changed this and everything works perfectly now.

Best regards,

Nicolas

Re: [Exist-open] Job scheduler

[Jean-Paul R. <re...@gm...>]

Hi

Execution as "guest" is expected behaviour. Per
https://exist-db.org/exist/apps/doc/scheduler#job-author you need to switch
permissions or set the SetUid/SetGid bits on the XQuery file's permissions.

Authoring Jobs

The scheduler supports jobs that are authored in either XQuery or Java:
XQuery Jobs

Jobs coded in XQuery can be user type jobs only.

An XQuery job is a standard XQuery Main Module which is stored in the
database. You configure the scheduling of the job by providing the database
path to the XQuery, for example: /db/my-collection/my-job.xq.

XQuery job's are launched under the *guest* account. If you wish to perform
tasks as another user , either switch permissions by calling xmldb:login() from
within your job, or set the SetUid/SetGid bits on the XQuery file's
permissions (see Security <https://exist-db.org/exist/apps/doc/security> for
more information).
Cheers,
JPR

[Exist-open] Job scheduler

[Nicolas S. <sou...@gm...>]

Dear All,

I'm trying to schedule a job to run an XQuery function every day, but I'm
encountering a problem that I don't know how to solve. According to the
documentation, I've added the following lines to eXist-db/etc/conf.xml:

<job type="user" xquery="/db/apps/myapp/myjob.xql" period="86400000"
unschedule-on-exception="false">
<parameter name="user" value="userName"/>
<parameter name="password" value="userPassword"/>
</job>

With the XQuery attribute referring to my XQuery file (with a working
XQuery function) and the parameters defining the username and password
(which are also given in the XQuery file with xmldb:login()), but it
doesn't work.

It seems that there are problems with the user, as indicated by the
scheduler.log file:

2023-10-12 13:31:45,491 [db.exist.scheduler.quartz-worker-3] INFO
 (JobRunShell.java [run]:207) - Job eXist.User.XQuery:

[Exist-open] Templating library debugging

[Winona S. <wsa...@gm...>]

Hi All,
Since migrating to the new templating library (v1.1.0 in eXist-db v6.1.0)
the error reporting has changed. With the new error reporting I do not have
any way to trace back to the function that is causing the issue, it only
tells me the templates:load-source function is failing. I used to get the
name of my local function that was causing the issue, making it much easier
to debug, especially when migrating a large old project. Is there a trick
to debugging these sorts of errors, another way to track down the source of
the bug?

Thanks for the help,
-Winona

This is the error I get with the new templating library:
templates:NotFound No template function found for call
templates:load-source (Max arity of 20 has been exceeded in searching for
this template function. If needed, adjust $templates:MAX_ARITY in the
templates.xql module.) [at line 191, column 85, source:

Re: [Exist-open] [EXTERNAL] [BULK] send-email function

[Harris, B. T. (GSFC-5870) <ber...@na...>]

I recently tested it on exist 6.2 and RH 7 and it worked (recipients received the email).  I used
mail:send-email($msg, (), ())
I do not know if that difference is significant or about other configurations.

Has the send-email() function changed or been depreciated? It no longer works on my 6.1.0 version of eXist. I am trying to use the local send mail server for the SMTP server. When I use it on a locally installed version, I get true() but no email is sent, when I try using it on my production version of my app (installed via docker on AWS) I get a 'connection refused' error.

Sample xquery:
xquery version "3.1";

let $email :=

[Exist-open] send-email function
