I hope i did understand what you are want to do... Kind regards, Andreas Am 04.10.2010 11:09, schrieb Mahender Didwania: Hi, What I am trying is to get something like basex-api.zip available at http://www.inf.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/download/BaseX61-api.zip , only for the newer version (e.g., 6.2.9). Now the file at the URL above packages several other things besides the basex-api (its name BaseX61-api.zip appears to suggest it contains only the basex-api, but that is not the case). My question is: where is the maven pom (if there is one) to create BaseX61-api.zip which includes basex.jar and basex-api.jar besides a few things from examples sub-project as well as several other dependencies? How do you guys create BaseXnn-api.zip? None of the builds of sub-projects basex, api or examples leads to creation of this file and this file is what I need. When I try to create it on my own (searching for the various artefacts and putting them in .zip using a local Maven project), then the resulting server starts fine but every time I perform a REST operation, I get 500 internal server error. I do not want to run basex from within Eclipse.

After that just start the StartJaxRx.java in the examples project. Now you can run the examples from http://www.inf.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/rest .

I have not tested the bundled distribution (Jetty bundled for access using REST). I am not able to get this to work however - all I get is internal server when I attempt anything other than get application.wadl - e.g., I cannot PUT successfully using the guidelines at http://www.inf.uni-konstanz.de/dbis/basex/rest . I had a cursory look at the java code and could not immediately figure out how Jetty is connecting to the Basex server instance in the StartJaxRx.java or StartJetty.java - to me it merely appears to start the two servers. I will later attempt to use the bundled .zip file available for download, although that is for an earlier version.
