query returns empty result

[duncdrum]

the following sparql returns the expected 230 result on wikidata query service (see link). However, when started from inside exist

xquery version "3.1";
import module namespace sparql = "http://exist-db.org/xquery/sparql" at java:org.exist.xquery.modules.rdf.SparqlModule";

declare namespace sr = "http://www.w3.org/2005/sparql-results#";

let $query := ("PREFIX wikibase: <http://wikiba.se/ontology#>
                PREFIX wdt: <http://www.wikidata.org/prop/direct/>
                PREFIX wd: <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/>
                PREFIX bd: <http://www.bigdata.com/rdf#>

                SELECT ?item ?itemLabel 
                WHERE { ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q836688.
                SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language '[AUTO_LANGUAGE],zh'. }
}")

return
    sparql:query($query)

I get:

<sr:sparql xmlns:sr="http://www.w3.org/2005/sparql-results#">
    <sr:head>
        <sr:variable name="item"/>
        <sr:variable name="itemLabel"/>
    </sr:head>
    <sr:results/>
</sr:sparql

Am I doing something wrong, or is there a bug?

@duncdrum I will look into it. We unfortunately have a two day consortium meeting just starting so I am not sure it will happen before the weekend.

Wow, I thought the sparql module could only query the data indexed inside exist (which is already a great feature), can it be used to query also wikidata directly? Pietro Maria Liuzzo cel (DE): +49 (0) 176 61 000 606 Skype: pietro.liuzzo (Quingentole) https://uk.linkedin.com/in/pietroliuzzo

, or mute the thread .

@duncdrum This happens to me when I forget to add the <module id="rdf-index" class="org.exist.indexing.rdf.TDBRDFIndex"/> to conf.xml. Which happens more often then I would like to admit. Are you sure your RDF is being indexed?

[duncdrum]

@wsalesky and @PietroLiuzzo thanks for chiming in and helping out. I m certain that the rdf-indexmodule is active in conf.xml and the updated readme demo runs fine.

I am, however, addressing the wikidata sparql endpoint directly, instead of running a query over locally stored rdfs. Maybe that was too optimistic, @ljo?

@duncdrum does it work with my updates?
