directly eXist access

Dear list,


How can I access to eXist database directly?
I need some admin tool and, of course, the admin password.
What about that?

Many thanks,

Francisco.

On the exist website http://exist.sourceforge.net/ there is a link to
a webstart client

http://demo.exist-db.org:8080/webstart/exist.jnlp

Username: admin
Password: <blank> (unless you changed it)
Type: Remote
URL: xmldb:exist://localhost:8080/orbeon/exist/xmlrpc
(if you are not running tomcat on 8080 you will have to change the port number)

A tip that you may or may not need: I have found that to create xquery
files it is best to upload them from the filesystem
so that they get the correct content type, if you create them from the
admin interface then they get set to be application/xml
and dont get processed as xquery files.

Hope that helps

Interesting; what do you mean by  upload from the file system? You are
doing a PUT with curl, or a similar tool?

I meant that  if I create an xquery with the admin interface
File>Create Blank File option it gets the content type text/xml and I
couldnt find a way to change it and when you do a get on the rest url
to the file the xquery gets downloaded as an xml file
if you create the file on the filesystem and use File>Store File the
content type of the file is set to application/xquery and when
you do a get on the url eXist executes the query (as I wanted).

In both cases the file has the extension .xql

Maybe I should file a RFE or bug for eXist.

I get it now! Great tip, thank you for sharing this here.

Have you tried asking the question on exist-open?
