xpath queries not working in xmldb
Hi,
Are there issues I should be aware of when using the xmldb using xindice
from the command line to return documents using:
xindice xpath_query -c /db/extractsdb -q
"//Metadata/Property[@FormalName='PublicationDate'][@Value='20020710']"
the result I get is all files published on the 20020710
But, when I use the following in cocoon:
http://localhost:8080/cocoon/xmldb/extractsdb/?xpath=//Metadata/Property[@FormalName='PublicationDate'][@Value='20020710']
the result I get is for all files in the collection.
Does Cocoon's XMLDB transformer have problems with attributes, or with
timeouts on xpath queries in Xindice( I have created an index, but I am
querying 4000 xml files each of which is between 80k-500k.)
John

1. Try escaping your query properly. IIRC, '=' sign in parameter value
has to be escaped.
2. See log files, should have 'Querying resource...' or 'Obtaining
resource...' line.
