Problem while uploading files (with special characters)

ralph-wgt

Hello there,

we are facing various problems with the RapidAnalytics. I would like to explain those problems here while we hope, that anyone may have experienced the same issues and knows how to solve them.

To begin with, I tried to upload a csv-File with special characters (swedish, which should be possible with UTF-8, as well as ISO-8859-1 and Windows-1552). Well, in RapidMiner there is no problem with this.
But when copy-paste the imported file from the local to the RapidAnalytics-Repository (home-directory), the upload goes well in the first place. But when I try to open the file (for example double-click) from the Analytics-Repository, I get:

"Message: Cannot parse I/O-Object: com.rapidminer.repository.RepositoryException: Cannot download IOObject: 500: Internal Server Error"

The server at this time states the following:
"13:52:14,438 INFO [de.rapidanalytics.ejb.RepositoryStorageEJBImpl] admin submitted new object to /home/hoepken/data/OverallBookings_Ausschnitt1.

: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12899: value too large for column "RAPIDANALYTICS"."es_65_meta"."attributeName" (actual: 22, maximum: 21)"

---

The first Infos ("failed to drop table") I get with every Database (in the past days I tried MySQL, PostgreSQL and Oracle as well).

Obviously, the problem is not the file size, as I also tried to cut the csv-file to only some rows, so that the file is only 72kb.

I would be very very glad if anyone is able to help. If you need any more information or log files, please let me know. I will send them immediately.
Thanks in advance!

More information to the system:

OS: Windows Server 2008 64-bit
RA-Version: 1.1 Bundle (automatic installer)
Database: Oracle 11g Express Edition (also tried by MySQL and Postgre)

Fresh installation of RA. No problems discovered during installation.
We piped the StdOut to a textfile and went through it, finding no obvious problems (except for this "duplicate bug" :-))

Hi,

something does not fit here. The error message is a bout storing and you are talking about downloading.

Did you configure your database to use UTF8 in all places? Database, connection, etc? You can edit server/default/deploy/rapidanalytics-ds,xml to add necessary parametrs to the connection URL if that is required.

Best,
Simon

Hello Mr. Fischer,

thanks for your reply.
I still think the problem is the uploading of the file, not the downloading. I just used this example to help on localized the problem.

If I uploaded the file, I do not even get the metadata for the uploaded object, nor can I download it.
The error messages that I posted already occur on uploading the file.

The database is configured to UTF8 and the connection works well.

Thanks for your time!

Best,
Ralph

Hi,

when you get a 500, there must be an exception in the logs. Can you identify that in the server.log?

Best,
Simon

Hello

I'm getting the same error.

server.log shows:

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12899: value too large for column "RAPIDM7"."es_46939_meta"."attributeName" (actual: 16, maximum: 8)

RM Studio error message is:

Cannot save repository data

Cannot store data in repository at entry '//Raptor.98/home/zzzzz'

Reason: Cannot upload object. 500 internal Server Error

We are using RM Studio 7.2 64bit and RM Server 7.2 64bit Linux

Oracle version is 11.2.0.1

Oracle Language Parameters are: (as in sys.pros$ table)

(1)NCHAR Character set - NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=UTF8

(2)Character set - NLS_CHARACTERSET=UTF8

(3)Language - NLS_LANGUAGE=KOREAN_KOREA.UTF8

Operators used in RM Studio:

(1) Read Excel

(2) Store (to server repository)

My personal analysis:

This error occurs when Korean Letters are in the excel header row (first row).

Korean letters in following rows (after the first row) have no problem.

Only the korean letters in the first row generates errors.

The excel table is supposed to be saved in tables such as "es_47542_meta", "es_47542_nominal_mapping", "es_47542_data_1".

The table "es_47542_meta" has column which name is attributeName.

This attributeName column does not work. It should contain the header letters

and when there is any Korean character in this header row,

necessary calculation to measure the length of this arributeName columen does not work.

We are using UTF-8, so every korean character needs 3 bytes.

If I insert a dummy (fictitous) header in any of the first header row which is large enough to hold the longest korean header,

then this process works fine.

For example, if the longest korean header has three korean letters, then

it requires nine bytes to hold it (3X3), then if there is any english header larger than 9 characters,

it generates the rapidminer table column attributeName as large as nine bytes and this process works fine.

It seems like the system (either RM or oracle) does not count the column width of Korean characters

represented in UTF-8 character set.

I used ojdbc7-12.1.0.jar for the jdbc driver of the RM server.

If I change it to ojdbc6.jar, it shows the same error.

Last time I used Rapidminer Server 7.2 on Linux using Operation Data in Oracle 12.1.0.2.0 with Character set UTF8.

I did the same test using a Rapidminer Server 7.2 on Windows 2012 with Oracle 12.1.0 with database created with Character set AL32UTF8.

It shows the same error.

This time I did some network TCP sniff to trace the actual data sent from studio to server.

It shows POST was used and Korean letters were encoded in UTF-8.

<< HTTP Packet sent from studio to Server >>

The last part include korean letters encoded in UTF-8 korean letters composed of 3 bytes.

Since you state the problem is in the header (first row) only, could it be related to your database (the one you use for the server) also? Most do not like 'strange characters' for column names, so what if you use more 'friendly' row headers?

I had something similar in the past, where my row header was using 'illegal' characters according to my SQL database, but where it was perfectly OK to store them in the actual cells. I had to use a more friendly header and it was solved at that moment.
