[basex-talk] Stopping BaseX HTTP server
Hi all, we have a problem trying to stop a BaseX HTTP server with the Windows task scheduler. The server ist started with a maven profile, calling mvn exec:java -Pstart pom.xml extract see below, and can also be stopped directly with the corresponding stop profile by a batch file: cd /D "%~dp0" mvn exec:java -Pstop But calling this batch profile in task scheduler works fine on our local computers, but does not work on the server (Windows Server 2012). On this machine, executing the stop profile by the task scheduler results in a message HTTP server was started (port: 8985). in the console window of the process to be stopped, but it continues running anyway. Any ideas regarding this strange behavior? Can we stop the server with a simple HTTP request? Calling localhost:8985 in the browser also results only in the message above. Thanks in advance for any hints. Best regards, Markus Extract from pom.xml: start org.codehaus.mojo exec-maven-plugin 1.4.0 org.basex.BaseXHTTP -h9894 -s8985 -p1985 -Urestxq src/main/resources stop org.codehaus.mojo exec-maven-plugin 1.4.0 org.basex.BaseXHTTP -s8985 stop -- Markus Wittenberg Tel +49 (0)341 248 475 36 Mail wittenb...@axxepta.de axxepta solutions GmbH Lehmgrubenweg 17, 88131 Lindau Amtsgericht Berlin HRB 97544B Geschäftsführer: Karsten Becke, Maximilian Gärber
Re: [basex-talk] Forcing download of JSON doc
Thanks for the tip! By declaring the %output:method("json") annotation AND
calling the serialize function, I was basically reserializing the data.

Re: [basex-talk] Forcing download of JSON doc
Maybe using json:serialize() rather than serialize?
In general if output:method is set to Json it should be sufficient to
return map{} or array{} or alternatively the XML version of a json
document without having to explicitly serialize ...

Re: [basex-talk] Forcing download of JSON doc
Thank you, Marco. So, the download issue seems to be with XForms
(XSLTForms) rather than BaseX. If I do a file upload from a plain HTML
form, the file download is triggered correctly. However, even though I have
set "application/json" as the Content-Type, the contents of the downloaded
file are an escaped string rather than a serialized JSON object: e.g.,
"{\n \"key\": \"value\"\n}"
Is there a way to produce a properly serialized JSON file for download?

Re: [basex-talk] Forcing download of JSON doc
Hi Tim,
downloading from a browser when posting a form is usually a bit tricky.
For me it always ended up with the creation of an artificial
element with an href crafted from the form parameters and with an
attribute download="filename.ext" added to it.
Anyway you could try with returning a "forced" application/octet-stream
Content-Type header
