[Exist-open] Exception in a simple query with XMLRPC

[Ariel L. <ar...@ho...>]

Hi,
In the last 2 days I was figthing with an stupid error when executing an =
xquery
An extreme simplification of the query is=20

let $resource :=3D fn:doc("/db/shakespeare/plays/hamlet.xml")/PLAY
return $resource

Running this query from XMLRPC throws the next exception (in =
client-side)

    org.xmldb.api.base.XMLDBException: unexpected token: $ [at line 1, =
column 72] [at line 1, column 72]
    at =
org.exist.xmldb.RemoteXPathQueryService.compile(RemoteXPathQueryService.j=
ava:74)
    ... 37 more
    Caused by: org.exist.xquery.XPathException: unexpected token: $ [at =

ervice.java:93)
    at =

ava:72)
    ... 38 more

But if I run  the query from the XQuery Sandbox works OK.=20

The source of the problem seems to be the absence of a " " (space =
character) after PLAY and before return.=20
Could be that the CR character is not replaced by a " "?
