Hi all,
I did some semantic web crawling and I gathered information on football
clubs from freebase and dbpedia.
In the dbpedia data, there is an individual that's equivalent
(owl:sameAs) http://dbpedia.org/resource/Chelsea_F.C. , namely
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Chelse_FC\
(note the backslash at the end of the URI)
When I use the sesame 2 API to access the virtuoso RDF store (directly
via the java repository), to collect all the owl:sameAs triples for
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Chelsea_F.C. like so
st = con.getStatements((Resource) ind, OWL.SAMEAS, null, true,
getContexts());
I get this error:
sparql select *
from named<http://myhost.com/ns/graph/linkeddata>
from named<http://myhost.com/ns/graph/soccer>

where {
graph ?g

<http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#sameAs> ?o }
}
[virtuoso.jdbc3.VirtuosoException: SQ074: Line 1: syntax error at '\' before
'SELECT']
I googled a bit and found these explanations:
http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/dbadm.html , specifically, under
6.1.9.1.9 [Client]:
SQL_NO_CHAR_C_ESCAPE=1
and gave it a shot (setting the conf var to 1), but the result was just
another error:
Could not open RepositoryConnection for transaction; nested exception is
org.openrdf.repository.RepositoryException: virtuoso.jdbc3.VirtuosoException:
Not using UTF-8 encoding of SQL statements, but processing character escapes
also disabled
I also tried setting
SQL_UTF8_EXECS = 1
in spite of reading in
http://docs.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/wideidentifiers.html that this may
make the whole content of my database unreadable - luckily, It didn't.
The error, however, prevailed.
Do I just need to re-populate my database with the new SQL_UTF8_EXECS =
1 setting or is it something else?
Thanks for your time!
Best,
Florian
