Failed to load a remote .xml file from a variable

Trying to read .xml file from another server into a variable



test=$(ssh root@server "cat /dir/file.xml")


But when doing echo $test, it prints the .xml file in one-liner format.



Then trying to execute xmllint on this file, 



xmllint $test


and getting the following error on each tag.




warning: failed to load external entity "..."




Note: when doing the same procedure, but on local .xml file(without ssh), it's working and getting the expected result.



Any way to solve this? Or use xmllint tool remotely?






bash ssh xml

          Note that your $test variable contains the content of the xml file, not its path.



          Anyway, to show it keeping the spaces intact, quote the variable: echo "$test".



          To run a program getting the input from variable you can use stdin redirecton, in this case it would be:



          echo "$test" | xmllint -


          You can also avoid using a variable:



          ssh root@server "cat /dir/file.xml" | xmllint -


          Finally, in bash, you can also use process substitution (see man bash):



          xmllint <(ssh root@server "cat /dir/file.xml")

                    “minimization” problem in Euclidean space related to orthonormal basis

                    Image
                    3 $begingroup$ I have stumbled upon an exercice for second year undegraduate student majoring in economics which I find quite demanding. I have an idea for the solution, but it seems awfully complicated, and I am wondering if there was a simpler way to solve it. This goes as follows: Let $(E, langle, rangle)$ be a euclidean space of dimension $n geq 2$ . 1) For any $x in E$ , show that $||x|| = sqrt{n}$ if and only if there exists $(e_1, dots, e_n)$ an orthonormal basis of $E$ such that $x =e_1+ ldots + e_n$ . 2) For any $(x,y) in E$ , show that $||x|| = sqrt{n}$ , $||y|| = sqrt{frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}}$ and $langle x,y rangle = frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ if and only if there eixsts $(e_1, ldots, e_n)$ an orthonormal basis of $E$ such that $x = e_1 + ldots + e_n$ and $y = e_1 + 2e_2 + ldots + ne_n$ The first q
