[CWB] Core critical error: invalid corpus handle submitted to database

[Hardie, Andrew]

Hi Maxine, Carolina,

You’ve not provided enough information for me to comment on the first two issues (though clearly yes something is going wrong); off the top of my head I don’t recognise the “notification” you’ve posted so I’d need to know in more detail what you did.

The third error message, “Core critical error: invalid corpus handle submitted to database”, occurs when the corpus name for the corpus that the user is “inside” is looked up in the database and isn’t found.

What this means is that, when you set up the corpus in CQPweb, it didn’t complete setup:  a database entry for the corpus was not created.

You’ll need to redo the setup, I think, before this problem will go away; and I guess you’ll have to solve your first two problems first or else the error may simply recur.

best

Andrew.

Dear list,

We are dealing with the following structure in our corpus:

<corpus>
<text date="1973_01_18" id="070070" inhaltsverzeichnis="empty" legislaturperiode="07" partei="empty" sprecher="präsident_frau_renger" year="1973" yearmonth="1973_01”>
Ich           PPER     ich
eröffne   VVFIN    eröffnen
die          ART        die
Sitzung  NN          Sitzung
.               $.             .
</text>
<text date="1973_01_18" id="0700701" inhaltsverzeichnis="empty" legislaturperiode="07" partei="empty" sprecher="präsident_frau_renger" year="1973" yearmonth="1973_01”>
<stage type=“interjection”>
Die          ART        die
</stage>
folgenden             ADJA      folgend
amtlichen              ADJA      amtlich
Mitteilungen          NN          Mitteilung
werden  VAFIN    werden
ohne       APPR     ohne
</text>
</corpus>

As you can see we have several <text> elements inside the corpus element. When trying to upload our .vrt files to CWB, we get the following notification:

Found the following structural elements: -S corpus:0
Found the following attributes: date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth+date+id+inhaltsverzeichnis+legislaturperiode+partei+sprecher+year+yearmonth

Here we have three problems:

1- The element <stage type=“interjection”> is not recognised, even if we have already declared it explicitly using: -S stage:0+type
2- The attributes repeat themselves which is an uncommon behaviour.
3- After importing the files in CQPWeb, we get the error message : “Core critical error: invalid corpus handle submitted to database.” This happened when clicking on “Design and insert a text-metadata table for the corpus”. We believe, we get this error because of issue #2.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Maxine and Carolina
