How Do I Install Virtuoso Docker Container Image?
<b>1</b>. Choose Docker image We've put together three Docker Images to choose from <a href="https://hub.docker.com/u/openlink/">https://hub.docker.com/u/openlink/</a>. The Enterprise Edition images require a version-matched license file (about which more details are below), just as if you were running on a local machine or in the cloud; the Open Source (VOS) image does not. • <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-8/">Enterprise Edition 8.3 - openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-8 </a> • <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-7/">Enterprise Edition 7.2 - openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-7</a> • <a href="https://hub.docker.com/r/openlink/virtuoso-opensource-7/">Open Source (VOS) 7.2 - openlink/virtuoso-opensource-7</a> The remainder of this article is focused on the first of these (Enterprise Edition 8.3); most of the content applies to all three, with minor, hopefully obvious, adjustments.

<b>2</b>. Download Docker image To pull the latest Virtuoso 8.2 docker image to your local system, you can use the following command: <code>$ docker pull openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-8</code> To check the version of the Virtuoso binary, you can use the following command: <code>$ docker run openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-8 version</code> This Docker image is using the following version of Virtuoso: <pre>OpenLink Virtuoso Universal Server (Enterprise Edition) Version 08.03.3319-pthreads as of Sep 9 2020 (b5a3cfa1e0) Compiled for Linux (x86_64-generic-linux-glibc25) Hosted Runtime Environments: VDB Copyright (C) 1998-2020 OpenLink Software</pre>

<b>3</b>. Creating a sample Virtuoso Docker instance Here is a quick example of how to create a new virtuoso instance on your system: <pre> $ mkdir my_virtdb $ cd my_virtdb $ docker run \ --name my_virtdb \ --interactive \ --tty \ --env DBA_PASSWORD=mysecret \ --publish 1111:1111 \ --publish 8890:8890 \ --volume `pwd`:/database \ openlink/virtuoso-closedsource-8:latest </pre> This will create a new Virtuoso database in the my_virtdb subdirectory and starts a Virtuoso instance with the HTTP server listening on port 8890 and the ODBC 2 / JDBC / ADO.Net / OLE-DB / ISQL data server listening on port 1111. The docker image in running in foreground (with -i or --interactive) mode, so you can see what it is doing. You should now be able to contact the Virtuoso HTTP server using the following URL: <code>http://localhost:8890/</code> You can shut down Virtuoso by pressing the CTRL and C buttons in that terminal session.

<b>4</b>. Licensing If the Virtuoso Enterprise Edition binary cannot find a license, it will start with a restrictive courtesy license 1 license which allows a small number of concurrent ODBC 2 / JDBC / ADO.Net / OLE-DB / ISQL connections, with a low limit on the maximum number of rows that can be retrieved in a query result-set, and terminates the instance after 10 minutes of use. To unlock the full potential of Virtuoso, you can obtain a FREE Evaluation License via our <a href="https://shop.openlinksw.com/license_generator/virtuoso/">License Generator Web Service</a>. Naturally, following successful evaluation, you can choose from a variety of Enterprise Edition licenses from our online shop 5 or contact us (or your account manager) directly for more specialized Enterprise and/or VAR/ISV/OEM licenses. Place the resulting virtuoso.lic file in the newly created database/ directory alongside the virtuoso.ini on your local filesystem, so the docker image can pick it up on the next startup: <pre> $ docker cp virtuoso.lic my_virtdb:/database $ docker stop my_virtdb $ docker start my_virtdb </pre>
How Do I Install Virtuoso Docker Container Image?
<b>5</b>. Passwords When a new database is created, the docker image will use the Environment settings DBA_PASSWORD and DAV_PASSWORD to set passwords for the dba and dav user accounts. If the DBA_PASSWORD environment variable is not set, a random password will be assigned to the dba user account, and stored on the internal docker filesystem as /settings/dba_password. If the DAV_PASSWORD Environment variable is not set, it will be set to the DBA_PASSWORD and stored as /settings/dav_password. These files will only be readable by the user that started the image. Commands like the following may be used to reveal the randomised passwords: <code>$ docker exec -i -t my_virtdb cat /settings/dba_password</code> Without this password, you will not be able to log in to the dba account using either the isql tool or the Virtuoso Conductor. NOTE: Users are advised to immediately change the password and then remove this file from the filesystem.

<b>6</b>. Persistent storage In order to retain changes to the Virtuoso database, the database documents should be stored on the host file system. The docker image exposes a /database volume that can be easily mapped to a local directory on the filesystem. If this directory is empty, the docker image will put an initial virtuoso.ini into the mapped directory and then proceeds to create a new database.

<b>7</b>. Stopping the image When the docker image is running in foreground mode (with -i or --interactive), you can shut down Virtuoso by pressing the CTRL and C buttons in that terminal session. You can also use the following command on a different terminal: <code>$ docker stop my_virtdb</code>
How Do I Install Virtuoso Docker Container Image?
<b>8</b>. Restarting the image Once the docker image has been registered with the docker run or docker create command on your local system, you can start it in the background using: <code>$ docker start my_virtdb</code> If you prefer to run the instance in foreground mode, you can use: <code>$ docker start -i -a my_virtdb</code>
How Do I Install Virtuoso Docker Container Image?
<b>9</b>. Checking the startup log If the docker image is started in background (without -i or --interactive) mode, you can look at the recent output of the virtuoso process by running: <code>$ docker logs my_virtdb</code>
How Do I Install Virtuoso Docker Container Image?
<b>10</b>. Using isql to connect To connect to your running Virtuoso instance, you can use the following command: <code>$ docker exec -i my_virtdb isql 1111</code> You will be prompted for the dba account password. NOTE: If you provide an incorrect password multiple times, Virtuoso will lock the dba account for a couple of minutes.

Migrating Virtuoso from a 32-Bit Prefixed to 64-Bit Prefixed Database
<b>1</b>. When starting an existing 8.x database with the new 08.03.3326+ binary, the following message will appear in the virtuoso.log file: <blockquote> NOTE: Your database is using 32-bit prefix IDs in RDF_IRI This Virtuoso engine has been upgraded to use 64-bit prefix IDs in RDF_IRI to allow for even larger databases. To take advantage of this new feature, your database needs to be upgraded. The performance of your existing database should not be affected, except when performing certain bulkload operations. Please contact OpenLink Support <support@openlinksw.com> for more information. </blockquote> As stated in the message, the engine will use a backward compatibility function to handle existing databases without causing a performance degradation when running SPARQL queries, inserts and deletes.
Migrating Virtuoso from a 32-Bit Prefixed to 64-Bit Prefixed Database
<b>2</b>. Caveat Bulkloading operations on an existing database using 32-bit prefix IDs will be restricted to use non-vectored functions. This will cause a drop in bulkload performance, so users who rely on this functionality should upgrade their database as soon as possible. Calling vectored functions like <code>TTLP_V()</code< and <code>RDF_LOAD_RDFXML_V()</code> will automatically call their non-vectored equivalents like <code>TTLP()</code> and <code>RDF_LOAD_RDFXML()</code>. Bulkloading using the <code>rdf_loader_run()</code> functions also automatically will downgrade to use non-vectored functions. Some functions may fail with the following error: <blockquote>[42000] Can not use dpipe IRI operations before upgrading the RDF_IRI table to 64-bit prefixes IDs</blockquote>
Migrating Virtuoso from a 32-Bit Prefixed to 64-Bit Prefixed Database
<b>3</b>. Upgrade method 1 The preferred way of upgrading to the new 08.03.3326+ format is to perform an NQUAD dump of all your triples using the <a href="https://community.openlinksw.com/t/producing-rdf-dumps-of-virtuoso-quad-store-hosted-rdf-model-data/3323">RDF_DUMP_NQUADS()</a> function and <a href"https://vos.openlinksw.com/owiki/wiki/VOS/VirtBulkRDFLoader">bulk loading</a> them into a new database.
Migrating Virtuoso from a 32-Bit Prefixed to 64-Bit Prefixed Database
<b>4</b>. Upgrade method 2 To upgrade an existing database in-place, make sure you have a proper backup of your existing database before performing the following commands: <pre> set echo on; scheduler_interval(0); backup '/dev/null'; -- make sure db is consistent log_enable (2,0); -- copy create table DB.DBA.RDF_IRI_64 (RI_NAME varchar not null primary key, RI_ID IRI_ID_8 not null); insert into DB.DBA.RDF_IRI_64 (RI_ID, RI_NAME) select RI_ID, __iri_name_id_64(RI_NAME) from DB.DBA.RDF_IRI; checkpoint; -- rename drop table DB.DBA.RDF_IRI; alter table DB.DBA.RDF_IRI_64 rename DB.DBA.RDF_IRI; create unique index DB_DBA_RDF_IRI_UNQC_RI_ID on DB.DBA.RDF_IRI (RI_ID); -- set db is upgraded __dbf_set('rdf_rpid64_mode',1); shutdown; </pre> Note however that depending on the number of records in the <code>DB.DBA.RDF_IRI</code> table, this can take a long time and will increase the size of your database.

<b>1</b>. Data Integrity Check reports Broken index RDF_QUAD_XXXX If when running a database integrity check to check the state of the database with the command: <code>backup '/dev/null';</code> Failure of this command to complete is an indication of the database having some form of corruption, requiring a +backup-dump of the database with the command: <code>virtuoso-iodbc-t +configfile virtuoso.ini +backup-dump</code> If the Virtuoso log output of this command indicates a Broken Index as below: <blockquote> 08:20:27 Database dump started 08:20:27 Checkpoint finished, log reused 08:20:27 Dumping the schema tables 08:20:27 Dumping the registry 08:20:27 Dumping the schema done 09:03:02 Broken index RDF_QUAD_POGS 09:03:02 GPF: colsearch.c:1753 less ces in seg than indicated in leaf col ref GPF: colsearch.c:1753 less ces in seg than indicated in leaf col ref Segmentation fault (core dumped) </blockquote>
Virtuoso reports problems with indexes prior to performing a backup run
<b>2</b>. Index Rebuild Steps Then that index and any others (comma delimited) need to be removed from the +backup-dump by adding them to the BackupIgnoreKeys parameter in the [Parameters] section of the Virtuoso config file (virtuoso.ini): <pre> [Parameters] BackupIgnoreKeys = RDF_QUAD_POGS </pre> Repeat the <code>+backup-dump</code> which should then complete as which time the database can be restored with the +restore-crash-dump command: <code> virtuoso-iodbc-t +configfile virtuoso.ini +restore-crash-dump </code> The missing index will then have to be recreated as detailed in the RDF Performance Tuning guide, thus is the case of the RDF_QUAD_POGS index the command would be: <pre> DROP INDEX RDF_QUAD_POGS ; CREATE COLUMN INDEX RDF_QUAD_POGS ON DB.DBA.RDF_QUAD (P, O, G, S) PARTITION (O varchar (-1, 0hexffff)); </pre>

Database Integrity Check Run a database integrity with the command: <code>backup '/dev/null';</code> Check RDF index counts First check with the following count queries on all the indexes on the RDF_QUAD table by running the following queries for Virtuoso: <pre> select count (*) from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_pogs, no exists join) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); select count (*) from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index primary key, no exists join) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); select count (*) from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_op, no exists join) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); select count (*) from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_sp, no exists join) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); select count (*) from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_gs, no exists join) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); </pre>

<b>5</b>. If the counts of the queries are not all "0" this indicated the indexes with none "0" counts are corrupt and needs to be repaired, which can be done with the following queries/commands: <pre> create table rq_recov (g iri_id_8, s iri_id_8, p iri_id_8, o any, primary key (g,s,p,o)); log_enable (3,1); insert soft rq_recov (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from RDF_QUAD a table option (index RDF_QUAD) where not exists (select 1 from RDF_QUAD b table option (loop, index RDF_QUAD_POGS, no exists join) where a.G = b.G and a.P = b.P and a.O = b.O and a.S = b.S); insert soft rq_recov (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from RDF_QUAD a table option (index RDF_QUAD_POGS) where not exists (select 1 from RDF_QUAD b table option (loop, index primary key, no exists join) where a.G = b.G and a.P = b.P and a.O = b.O and a.S = b.S); insert soft rdf_quad index rdf_quad (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from rq_recov; insert soft rdf_quad index rdf_quad_pogs (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from rq_recov; insert soft rdf_quad index rdf_quad_sp (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from rq_recov; insert soft rdf_quad index rdf_quad_op (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from rq_recov; insert soft rdf_quad index rdf_quad_gs (g,s,p,o) select g,s,p,o from rq_recov; log_enable (1,1); drop table rq_recov; checkpoint; </pre> Then run the select count ... queries again for Virtuoso 7 or 8 , as above, to check indexes, the counts ALL of which should all be zero indicating they are repaired.

<b>6</b>. Check the primary key on the RDF_QUAD table is not broken by running the command: <code>select count (s), count (p ), count (o ), count (g ) from rdf_quad table option (index rdf_quad, check);</code> The counts of the `s, p, o, g` columns should all be the same, and if not the primary key index can be repaired by running the following queries: <pre>insert into rdf_quad index rdf_quad_pogs (s,p,o,g) select s,p,o,g from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_pogs) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); </pre> Then the reverse insert query needs to be run to insert any missing rows from the `rdf_quad` index into the `rdf_quad_pogs` full index ie <pre>insert into rdf_quad index rdf_quad (s,p,o,g) select s,p,o,g from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad) where a.g = b.g and a.p = b.p and a.o = b.o and a.s = b.s); </pre> And the following 3 insert queries need to be run to insert any missing rows in the 3 partial indexes ie rdf_quad_gs, rdf_quad_sp & rdf_quad_op as follows: <pre> insert into rdf_quad index rdf_quad_sp (s,p) select s,p from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_sp) where a.p = b.p and a.s = b.s); insert into rdf_quad index rdf_quad_op (o,p) select o,p from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_op) where a.o = b.o and a.p = b.p); insert into rdf_quad index rdf_quad_gs (g,s) select g,s from rdf_quad a table option (index rdf_quad_pogs) where not exists (select 1 from rdf_quad b table option (loop, index rdf_quad_gs) where a.g = b.g and a.s = b.s); </pre> Then run the `select count ...` queries again as above, to check indexes, the counts `ALL` of which should all be zero indicating they are repaired. If the above steps are successful the RDF index has been repaired and the database is ready for use again.
