Hi, I'm unable to use RUN in standalone mode in BaseX 8.4, including the latest downloadable snapshot dated yesterday. The same thing in BaseX 8.3 works fine.

java -cp BaseX842-20160310.184258.jar org.basex.BaseX

C:/Users/username/.basex: writing new configuration file. BaseX 8.4.2 beta 9b9f74a [Standalone] Try 'help' to get more information.

Quoted text · 1 line

> RUN blah.bxs

Stopped at ., 1/20: [XPST0003] Incomplete expression. The reference to "1/20" comes up no matter which .bxs file I try to run, even if line 1 is a comment. Did I miss a deliberate change in configuration or syntax? Thanks, Amanda

Hi Amanda, I just tried to reproduce this, but I didn’t succeed (see below)… Do you have more information?

Hi Christian, It turns out the contents of my script were relevant after all. As part of the script, I was trying to display a time stamp, like this. xquery (current-time() || "
") If my x.bxs file has the content xquery '
' then I can run it in BaseX 8.3 but not 8.4. In 8.4, even typing that command directly at the prompt instead of using RUN gives me the same error.
