Thanks for that Edgar I'll go and check out the tool. Is it in the trunk ? Edgar wrote: >I think there's no need to validate the input, if the repository gets broken it's a bug.
Its fairy easy to break the repository, just add a ; into the name for a new node. I guess it should really throw an invalid path exception. My real worry is adding critical data and not being able to recover it. I'm using the CQFileSystem for storage by the way.

Could you provide configuration details? Could you provide the code to reproduce the error? > Is there a way of repairing the repository ? If you use XMLPersistenceManager + LocalFileSystem it shouldn't be difficult to fix it manually. There's a consistency check + repair tool in JIRA (JCR-76). I've just uploaded a new version compatible with the latest jackrabbit version. It's early code but you might want to give it a try, remember to backup your repository before running the tool ;). Feedback is welcome. > and is there a way of > validating the input before I use it to create a node ? I think there's no need to validate the input, if the repository gets broken it's a bug. regards edgar Come visit us at: Internet World 2005.
