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

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

Hi
thanks Giulio for reply. While writing an answer to your mail, I found the 
problem. It was an error in my code :).

The source of the problem was:
    File file = new File(fileName);
    BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new 
FileInputStream(file),"UTF-8"));
    String line;
    StringBuffer xQueryBuffer = new StringBuffer();
    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
        xQueryBuffer.append(line);
    reader.close();

I didn't realise that BufferedReader.readLine() removes the CR or LF 
character at the end of the line, and because of that the string stored in 
xQueryBuffer didn't contains any CR.

I'm sorry for my previous post,
Thanks again
Ariel

HI,
fro debug you exception is important know how you call the xquery and
also language you use.
also what is the result if you call
let $resource := fn:doc("/db/shakespeare/plays/hamlet.xml")/PLAY
return $resource
