Hi Hannes, First of all make sure that the BaseX HTTP Server is started. Information about how to start it can be found here: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup#BaseX_HTTP_Server The configuration file for the HTTP server is named ".basex" and is found in the BaseX installation dir. This might help finding out the port on which the HTTP server is running. The default port for BaseX WebDAV is 8984. To check if everything is O.K. you can use an WebDAV URL inside a browser. Something like the example below. The example gets an document from a database named TEST: http://localhost:8984/webdav/TEST/etc/factbook.xml Once you are sure that the BaseX WebDAV is working you can configure the an WebDAV connection in Oxygen through the steps from the link. The WebDAV URL should look something like http://localhost:{port}/webdav/{database_name}. Like I said, the default port for BaseX WebDAV is 8984. http://oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/tasks/configure-webdav-connection.html Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any problems.

Alex,
thanks for your quick response, and sorry for my delay.
The way we recommend it is to use an XQJ connection to executes queries and an WebDAV connection for browsing. So instead of using "File" -> "Open URL..." action all the time you will use the Data Source Explorer view to browse BaseX through the WebDAV connection.
I didn't manage yet to get the Data Source Explorer running with BaseX. Probably it's only about some details that I'm doing wrong? Could you give some details how the Data Source Explorer can be used to browse BaseX through the WebDAV connection?
We will also add an article on our site about the BaseX support.
Yes, this would be great!
Thanks in advance,
Hannes

Hi Hannes,
As we see it, the XQJ connection and the WebDAV connection working together cover rather well any BaseX requirement (XQuery execution + browsing), but if you are missing something please let us know.

Dear developer team,
oXygen is our favorite XML editor - but it seems to lack good support for our favorite XML database BaseX. While I cannot find any reference to "BaseX" in the dialog windows of oXygen, I have found some information in the BaseX documentation, describing how to open documents via WebDAV or execute queries via XQuery (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Integrating_oXygen). But those two variants don't seem to complement each other.
I would be very interested...
a) if you plan a better integration of BaseX in your system? b) what's currently the easiest way to access all BaseX databases and documents from within oXygen? In other words, do I always have to use "File" -> "Open URL..." to get all database resources listed?
Thanks a lot in advance, Hannes
PS: I've tried to send this mail quite a while ago, but apparently it didn't make it to the list, so this is the second run.. Sorry for persistiing.
