Hi

I am trying to create a webservice as described in chapter 9 of DataDirect XQuery® User’s Guide and Reference (ddxug.pdf)

I would like to create simple webservice that makes it possible to download a stockfile if you know the name of the file.

So, finding that the XQueryWebService Framework makes it possible to expose a xquery script as a rest service I have tried to create the above web project.

But I am having trouble getting it to work.

The webserver just returns 'This page cannot be displayed'

I am thinking that it might be related to this statement in the documentation:

"Let's take a look at emp.xquery, which we have saved to our
local XQuery directory (c:\MyQueryDir, as defined in web.xml)."

I cannot find any reference in the documentation how to define the path in the web.xml file. Currently the xquery file is just located in {tomcat_home}/webapps/project

IS the missing definition in the web.xml file the problem?
If so, how do I define the path in the web.xml file?

Attached is a zip of my very simple project that should return the filename param to the user when called.

PriceStockFiles.zip
web prj zipped path{tomcatHome\webapps}

Bruce you are running XPS, look at the documentation for how to expose a pipeline as web service, the approach is far more powerful
