Thanks Andy.
I don't understand : 'update' queries work in UI most of the time (and
when I re-write this 'delete' query, it works... Of course I have to
give http://localhost:3030/MyDataset or
http://localhost:3030/MyDataset/update as endpoint url (above dialog
box), not http://localhost:3030/MyDataset/query).
Besides, I'm not sure the problem didn't occur with 'select' or other
'read-only' queries (I'll report the case if it happens).
BUT the error message (see here :
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffl-misc/files/fuseki_strange_errors ) says
Encountered " "delete" "delete "" at line 19, column 1.
Was expecting one of:
"base" ...
"prefix" ...
"select" ...
"json" ...
"describe" ...
"construct" ...
"ask" ...
(7 ms)
and not 'delete', 'insert', so maybe the parser doesn't like updates as
you said.
-- Another case, maybe irrelevant for this problem, where I get errors :
I often try a query in the UI first, and then copy-paste the string in a
custom script to reuse it with command-line tools (the script passes the
query string to other scripts such as s-query, tdbquery, s-update). I
noticed that the 'auto-formatting' (indentation, spaces, code folds,
etc) in the UI dialog box inserts 'special characters' and sometimes I
have to chop them to get the script working. Maybe there's something
wrong with a special character in this 'delete' query too? (N.B. : I
don't remember if the error message is 'lexical error' or 'parse error'
in this case)
-- a final point (don't know if it's relevant either) : I use only
Firefox, didn't try with other browsers. Do you think the problem could
be linked to javascript or some other piece of the web interface in
firefox (maybe a bug in firefox itself) ?

Vincent,
It's a parse because DELETE is SPARQL Update and the query editor is
for query. In SPARQL, they are different languages.
There is some way (IIRC) to use the UI with update but I can't
remember how - maybe someone else can answer that part.

Hello,
Sometimes I have a '400 Parse error' when typing a query in Fuseki UI.
-- Here, the query string 'delete {?s ?p ?o } where {?s ?p ?o }'
doesn't work at first. N.B.: I hadn't pasted the string from other
software, everything had been typed in the query dialog box.
-- If I change the string for a construct query (cut 'delete', type
'construct' instead), it's ok. Then I cut 'construct' and type
'delete' again, this time it works.
-- Nothing in log file
I get this error with fuseki 3.9.0 and 3.5.0.
I've uploaded a screenshot of the UI + a .txt file where you can see
the infos (install version, terminal output) :
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffl-misc/files/fuseki_strange_errors
Do you have encountered this problem? Do you know where it comes from?
Thanks in advance,
Vincent
