APEX Packaged Applications

I am looking for a "FREE" Packaged Application that performs the following...
-> Software Project Management.
-> Task Manager
-> Project Time Sheets.
-> Bug Tracking or Issue Tracker
-> Discussion Forum
-> Content Management or Document Library
APEX has all but not consolidated into one app. Has anyone already attempted to consolidate them all into one comprehensive application?
Is there any recommended "open source" application that does the same?

The responses on this thread has sincerely exceeded my expectations.
The consolidation of all the apps is what I was looking for.
Are you still, actually using the consolidated APEX Software project, task, and event APEX app? Or have you settled on a different open source software package or low cost project tracker like "Jira".
My preference is to adhere to a best practice, already proven, consolidated Project mgmt, incident and time tracking product. Howeve, if you are actually using the consolidated APEX approach and you really recommend it. I will go that route as well.
The end result is that I need one consolidated solution, self contained in one database and something that is quick to market (internal use only) and easy to use. If putting all the APEX app pieces together works well and if you currently are using this and recommend it. I'll do it too. Thanks for your responses to-date. I sincere appreciate the effort and recommendations.

Can I use APEX Packaged applications for commercial purposes

Hi,
When you download and Install APEX, it comes with pre build packaged applications. Can I use it to make money?
I understand that I will not be able to get any support for Oracle and all that. But using Database XE with APEX, can I start shipping these applications and make money lawfully without violating Oracle's terms?
Please advise.
Darsh

Hi Darsh,
I can't say that this was a good answer, but I addressed a similar question in this forum posting: https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2600958

Is it Legal to use an APEX packaged application, improve it and Sell it?

Any thought on this is appreciated, I'm trying to get an answer from Oracle but no one is sure of the answer. There is this Sample Database Application which is great to build a small shop POS program.
Thank you

This is quite good question, there are several tools which have very decent start for building larger and better application for e.g. in-house usage.
But those improvements are very likely wasted when new versions of those packaged applications are released.
One option could be community contributed enhancements to packaged applications which are then accepted/rejected to next release of the packaged applications?
Other option could be commercial enhancements to packaged applications with some sort of 'certified to work in Apex5' stamp?
Of course the licensing could be a bit more clear for the vanilla Packaged Apps. I think most of use love to 'reverse engineer' what they have eaten

Public Sector uptake of "Packaged Applications"

I work for Oracle Public Sector and the question came up recently with some colleagues about how many customers are using the APEX Packaged Applications. If you are a United States or Canadian Public Sector (Government) customer and are using any of these applications, can you reply to this thread or send an email to [email protected] with any of the info you feel comfortable sharing such as:
<ul>
<li>Customer Name</li>
<li>Application Name</li>
<li>Brief description of how you are using</li>
</ul>
or any other info you feel you want to share. I will not publicize this information without your written permission. If you are interested in sharing your story on OTN, I'm happy to help make that happen as well.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I have looked at the Packaged Applications.
I declined to use them because they would require quite a bit of modification to meet my needs.
I find it faster and more reliable to code small utility applications from scratch so that my clients get exactly what they need; no more and no less.
APEX is awesome at pumping out these utility applications quickly and cheaply with acceptable quality.
Hope this helps.

Error Installing Packaged Applications - Apex 5

Hi Folks:
I installed APEX 5 successfully. Everything seems to be running fine except I'm unable to install packaged applications.
I get a screen that looks like the following when trying to install a package application:
The text in the dropdowns for the errors begins with:
Error
The packaged application installed. However, installation of database objects and seed data has failed.

It then includes a lot more create, etc. statements that failed.
I wonder if it is some kind of permissions issue? I ended up running @apxremov.sql   and reinstalled apex 5 again after I couldn't get the package apps to work the first time but that didn't fix anything. I have attached a text file that has all the code from the error message.
The database I installed to is an Oracle 12c Enterprise database.
It had Oracle Apex 4.2.6 installed on it with many packaged apps (not really using them, just trialing them till 5 came out). I ran @apxremov.sql before installing Apex 5.
Any help or ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
Matthew Friend

Matthew,
Looking at the error file, it appears that APEX is trying to "upgrade" an existing Data Reporter instance rather than do a fresh install. It's possible (I haven't checked the code) that apexremov.sql doesn't run the packaged applications through their deinstall process, and so their supporting objects may still be present within your schema. I'd suggest removing any objects (especially tables & packages) with a name like 'EBA_DP_%' from your parsing schema, and then trying the install again.
Regards,
-D.

Cant install packaged application Apex 5

I have tried to install some of packaged applications, but i cant. Error looks like in the picture bellow. I granted users APEX_PUBLIC_USER, APEX_REST_USER, APEX_LISTENER to create view but error is still there. Anyone has same problem ?

Thanks for reply,
If you mean the first step of installation wizard (shown in picture bellow INTEST), i have already granted create view to schema INTEST, but not helped..
I have successfully installed the Live Poll package application on apex.oracle.com, where I obviously have only minimal privileges (and no way of changing them):

Package Application Incident Tracking Apex 4.2 Internet Explorer Issue

Frame Layout Question.
I have installed the packaged application Incident Tracking, however the rendering of the Content Frame Body Container region in Internet Explorer 8.0 and above does not render correctly. Both the width and the height of this region is sized too small.
It is the Cloud Apps theme on version Application Express 4.2.4.00.08. It works perfectly in Chrome, Firefox and Opera but I am restricted to Internet Explorer. It occurs on Page 50 of the Application 101 in the <div id="uFrameMain"> section it should expand to 100% width of the region but appears to be restricted to a layout of 437px x 363px where as in Chrome it 1428px x1270px. The problem is the region does not display its correct height or widtth, I would be really grateful if someone could help me to debug this.
Thanks

Would suggest posting to this forum, which supports packaged applications: Packaged Applications

Thanks & Sorry for not mentioning the full information about my environment.
it was:
Oracle 11g xe R2 on Windows 7 machine
Apex listener deployed on Glass Fish server 3.1 on Windows 7 machine
Apex 4.1
Google Chrome
So, to have OLL application worked locally . we need the following:

Configure an Application Express Application as a Partner Application in Oracle AS Single Sign-On http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/testcontent/sso-partner-app-100552.html.
I think I am going to install on my work space on apex.oracle.com.

Error while installing a packaged application

Thanks

Hilary - I asked our DBA to open a SR, the number is SR 3-6553142501 : Unable to install packaged applications in Oracle Apex
Looks like apex.oracle.com has been upgraded to 4.2.1. When did this happen?
I am almost positive that I was able to install packaged apps on apex.oracle.com even when it was on 4.2.0.00.27 (same as the publicly available version) but not on my instance. But now since the versions are different, the support person is pointing to the different versions as a cause! This is what I was afraid of. To be honest, given that I was getting the error on my instance but not on apex.oracle.com, even when both systems (mine and apex.oracle.com) was on the same version of APEX, I am not very hopeful that the 4.2.1 patch will fix my situation since the root cause has not been identified. I just don't want to wait for 4.2.1 to be released, apply it and find out that the issue is still there. Can you share the list of bugs fixed in 4.2.1 to see if any of them may apply to this situation?
Any other ideas? What diagnostics can I provide to help you get to the bottom of this? Frankly, Oracle Support, as I found in the past, is not very well qualified to resolve APEX-related SRs. Can you please assist or direct Support appropriately? Thanks, appreciate your help.
Since I have the Builder app installed in my instance, I inspected the final page of the packaged app install wizard (4000:83) to see what APIs it uses and ran it manually as SYSTEM. This is what I get. Does that help narrow down the issue?

Problem with Package Applications

Ok, I'm trying to migrate an Apex Application from one server to a newer server....
My custom app I used the theme from Go Live CheckList samples....
Well, when trying to install that application I get 'Insufficient space to install application ' with a BIG red X...
I was able to install other Package Application except for the one I need and now my application errors out because of
some shared Themes....
At first I thought it was a DB thing so I downgraded back to 10g from 11....but that didn't help...
Apex works fine...
Other samples work fine...
Version Apex 4.2.2 and Oracle XE 10g...

Yes,
It errors out in 11g XE and when it was the only Application installed...
I know the error sounds like the OS but I can't see it being the issue since the
other server has less space and more application on it...
Plus the database is empty ....
The other one is Apex 4.2.1 .. I think there is a problem with 4.2.2 packaged applications..

Packaged Applications

Hi Everyone,
I am very new in Oracle and I have, i think, very simple question.
I would like to install one of the Oracle packaged application samples and test it out. So, my question is: what software do I need to run it.
As I understand, I need to install Oracle application server but I am not sure about Oracle Database server. Do I need both of them to run and manage application and the database?
Thanks

Hello,
They aren't the same thing though there will be some overlap
Re: APEX on SourceForge
I'll check the links on sourceforge today stuff and make sire it has the newest build available.

Packaged applications - Locked or unlocked

APEX 4.2.2
Just curious...right after installing all the packaged applications, I noticed that some of them are Locked and others are Unlocked (i.e. we can inspect how the apps are built using the Builder). Does the choice of which ones are locked vs unlocked signify anything or is it just a random choice made by the Oracle person(s) who built the application?
Thanks

>
Oracle Application Express includes two types of packaged applications:
Sample applications
Productivity applications
Both sample and productivity applications are fully functional applications that have been designed to address a specific business need. You can install, run, and use packaged applications as is, or analyze them to better understand how to use Application Builder to build specific types of functionality.
The main difference between a sample and productivity application is the level of support. By default, sample applications are fully editable. In contrast, you must unlock productivity applications before you can edit them. Unlocking a productivity application makes it ineligible for future upgrades or support by Oracle Support.

Using Sales Forecast packaged application

Hi, i wish to use the sales forecast packaged application but, trying with different users all the users see the same data, i mean the Sales Rep A see the selling cycle of Sales rep B. Since the manager is right to be able to look to Rep's opportunities this is not valid between Reps. Am I doing something wrong?
What is the best and fastest way to implement such controls?
Thank you in advance.
Maurizio

Hi Maurizio,
The sales forecasting app seems to be an overall view of sales and sales cycle, it doesn't restrict the data. It only restricts the Admin functions when you set at least one APEX user as admin.
You'll need to implement some sort of VPD (Virtual Private Database) policy to restrict data to each user.
You say that you "try with different users", how do you mean?
Have you set up Apex users as reps?
If you have, there will be no link to those users in the reps table in the database.
What you may have to do is set up a custom authorization and link it to the Reps table.
Search this forum and the Apex docs for "Custom Authorization" for help with this.
Your custom authorization will then have to link with the VPD.
See this link for VPD and other options
Re: Any ideas on restriciting users/groups of users to data
Hope this helps,
Gus..

Cannot install Sample Master Detail (Packaged Application)

When trying to install the Sample Master Detail packaged application
on the new APEX.Oracle.com (running Application Express 4.2.0.00.22),
I'm getting an error.
After selecting it from the Packaged Applications page, and clicking the "Install Application" button
on the Application Builder/Packaged Applications/Sample Master Detail/Install screen,
I get the following:
Execution of the statement was unsuccessful. ORA-00001: unique constraint (APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_MESSAGES_IDX1) violated

end;

I tried in a workspace that had some existing applications, and a colleague tried
in a new workspace that had just been allocated by APEX.Oracle.com.
I was able to successfully install the Sample Data Loading application after trying to install
the Sample Master Detail packaged application.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ricky,
Thanks for raising this issue. The reported issue impacts the installation of the Sample Dialog and Sample Master Details packaged applications on this instance. We've logged bug 14749720 to track it, have identified a solution and hope to have it applied to this instance during the next instance update.
Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.
