Thanks for all the progress that has been made on this module. It is bringing the promises of the semantic web to drupal.
I am not sure if this is a feature request, or I just don't know how to go about doing this. But from what I can tell, SPARQL_Views currently works using SPARQL queries on external RDF stores, like DBPedia or datasets from Kasabi. It would be really nice to be able to query from the local RDF store, i.e., the local SPARQL endpoint on the site where the SPARQL_Views module is installed. Perhaps it can be done with the local store, but I am not going about it in the right way. In that case, this would not be a feature request, but a support request.
When I try to point a new SPARQL View instance at the local RDF store (i.e., using the SPARQL endpoint from the local site in the SPARQL Endpoints Registry), then when I try to make a SPARQL View, I get an error in the Fields section of Views:
Broken/missing handler (Broken handler sparql_views_1043211010.table)
Also, if this was implemented and #832946: Allow to query multiple endpoints was implemented, then we could do SPARQL mashups, which would make possibilities wide open for the Drupal platform.

Anonymous (not verified) commentedThat error shouldn't be related to using a local store. It is usually related to not having any SPARQL Views resource types or fields that are available for use with the endpoint.
If your local SPARQL endpoint is available via HTTP, then you should be able to access it just as you would any other SPARQL endpoint. Support for querying a store using something other than HTTP would be something to support in SPARQL module. Feel free to open an issue for supporting other kinds of SPARQL endpoint access on the SPARQL module.
I've changed the title to reflect this, please check to ensure that you have a SV resource registered for the endpoint and that it has fields with RDF mappings.
