Not installing Oracle 10g Express Edition Beta 2

Hi,
I am in problem to install Oracle 10g Express Edition Beta 2 on Windows 2000 Pro. I have download OracleXE.exe but when i am double clicking on it, it is not working. What are the problems? Please help me
Dulal

Hello,
Oracle 10g XE is rather specific and, I'm not sure that you can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 .
However, Oracle published an Upgrade Guide for Oracle Express Edition but, it's limited to *10.2.0.3*:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/toc.htm
But be careful:
Once you have upgraded to Oracle Database 10g, you cannot downgrade back to Oracle Database Express Edition.Hope this help.
Best regards,

Installing Oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux

Hi,
I am new with Linux Os and have to install oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux Os for a customer. So before proceeding, I need some guidelines.
1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setup
Regards
Edited by: user640001 on Feb 25, 2011 5:44 AM

1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?Ordinarily, I'd recommend getting Oracle Linux (http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux) because the default install includes all the prerequisite RPM packages you will need. And failing that, also offers another RPM package "oracle-validated" which will cause the installation of the necessary prerequisites.
But... you mentioned customer: if this is a revenue-producing situation and customer money is at stake, I strongly recommend they obtain commercial O/S support with either Oracle, Red Hat, or maybe SuSE/Novell. Compared to the cost of a downed business, an O/S support arrangement is cheap, cheap, cheap.
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?Sure. You can run Oracle VirtualBox on most Linux, Windows, or Solaris boxes. http://VirtualBox.org for info.
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?No real differences in either environment.
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setupWhat, you didn't try http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux yet?

An issue while installing oracle 10g express edition on Ubuntu 10.04-64bit

Hi,
I'm running into an issue while installing oracle 10g express edition on my Ubuntu 10.04-64 bit installed machine using oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb package. The issue actually came up when I was trying to reinstall the package after uninstalling it due to some problem I had with my login credentials. To elaborate further on it, the /etc/init.d/oracle-xe script does not get created when I execute the debian package and thus i'm unable to configure the required credentials and stuff after the installation. I doubt whether this has something to do with the procedure I followed when uninstalling the previous package it. But what I did was just what's mentioned in the following [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/install.102/b25144/toc.htm] user guide published by oracle.
Another important clue would be, the platform of my machine is amd64bit although I'm dealing with an installation package preferred for i386. But I believe it's the only thing available in the oracle software download section. Hence I had to use the --force-architecture option to install it. But after reading some post published on this forum, I've figured out that it does not affect the usual execution of the software. Anyway, I would greatly appreciate some help on this matter.

Hi,
Finally I've managed to find a solution for this issue. Thanks a lot for all the replies.
Here's how I got rid of it.
Addressing all the facts one by one,
1.The problem of not getting the /etc/init.d/oracle-xe script generated was avoided
by removing all the configuration files that were previously created while installing
the product. The following command can be used to accomplish that task.
*$ dpkg --purge oracle-xe*
2.Next, Initially the password I used during the configuration process was "admin".
Although I tried a couple of times installing the product providing the aforementioned
password, the web UI kept prompting "Invalid Credentials" message not allowing me
to login. But, this particular issue could be avoided by giving some other simple
password.
Finally, got it working and once again thanks a bunch for taking the burden of
replying this thread.
Cheers,
Prabath

Oracle 10g express Edition Database

We are using oracle 10g express edition with a temporary storage space for a class using SQL. When creating and using the database, the data is being deleted after 1 or 2 days and students are having to start over, creating tables and inserting data. Any suggestions?

suggestions?Backups?
Or, as long as the DDLs and DMLs don't take long, rerunning table create and insert SQLs would probably be much faster than setting up the database(s) in archivelog mode and copying datafile/archivelog files or rman backup files someplace that won't get reimaged every other day.

Hi
Here's the resolution that can work for you:
Disable the "Print Spooler" service before running the installer.
1.Open Control Panel: Start --> Settings --> Control Panel
2.Double-click "Services"
3.On the list of NT Services, right-click "Print Spooler"
4.Select "Stop"
5.Select "Properties"
6.Under Startup Type, select "manual" or "disabled"
7.Reboot your NT Server
8.After rebooting, verify that the Print Spooler is still "stopped".
9.Delete Program Files\Common Files\Installshield\Engine folder
10.Re-run the installer.
11.After installation, re-set the Print Spooler service to Startup type "Automatic" and start the service.

Can not connect Oracle 10g express edition from report builder.

I have newly installed report builder . Different home was selected for Report builder and oracle. Oracle database server is also in the same machine. But i am not able to connect my oracle 10g express edition database. It throws error ORA-12154 : TNS could not resolve service name.( same error displayed while trying to connect from SQL Plus).But from toad i am able to access the database. May be because here I am able to select the proper home.
Here i am adding my tns entry
XE =

(CONNECT_DATA =

(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
can any one suggest what the actual problem is?
Thanks ..........

Hello,
Oracle 10g XE is rather specific and, I'm not sure that you can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 .
However, Oracle published an Upgrade Guide for Oracle Express Edition but, it's limited to *10.2.0.3*:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/toc.htm
But be careful:
Once you have upgraded to Oracle Database 10g, you cannot downgrade back to Oracle Database Express Edition.Hope this help.

Oracle 10g express edition browser login problem

Hi

I created another os user and tried with that still same. I tried entering oracle password "SYSTEM" and password for it but still could not login, I tried HR username password still nothing.
I tried disabling firewall but still same issue. I tried to re-install two time but still same .

Then manually started OracleServiceXe service through Component Services
Control Panel Performance & Maintenance Administrative Component Services
Then did following
Programs Oracle Database10g ExpressEdition Start Database
Programs Oracle Databse10g ExpressEdition Go to Database Homepage
Enter username SYSTEM
Enter password xxxxxx whatever given at the time of installing.
And I did successfully login to the browser .
Hope this will help to those of you who have run into similar problem which I faced

Issues during reinstallation Oracle 10g express edition and Forms 6i

I've been racking my head over this issue for the past two three days. Exasperated, I tried searching in the forums but could not find a specific scenario like this.
I am facing issues while trying to get forms 6i to work with oracle 10g Express edition
i have windows XP home edition (installed service pack 2) and installed oracle 10g express edition as well as the oracle 10g express client and SQL developer on the same machine. The database started fine and I was able to use Enterprise manager.
After that I tried installing Forms 6i and whatever i try i am not able to connect to the database from Forms though I was able to connect easily from SQL developer. I used to get the error 12154 "TNS:could not resolve service name"
I dont know if Forms 6i expects the database connector string in some particular format. I searched on the net and found some people solved the issue by reinstalling the database software.
My machine name was complex so I changed it as well and reinstalled the software. Again the DB was fine and connections were fine but no way I could get forms to connect to the DB. All the time
I tried installing Forms to the same folder that Oracle express edition home in the hope that it might fix the problem. That only caused my database to crash. The oracle xe service shows as started but the Enterprise manager link does not work and it seems the database is down. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling client and server to no avail.
Has anyone gone through such a situation and solved this ? Appreciate your help.

The statement about XP Home is correct, but in this case I would say the initial problem (Forms and ORA-12154) is independent of that, it also happens in a supported environment. I think it's the old problem, a second Oracle home was installed, but tnsnames.ora containing the connect informations is located in the first home.
Either tnsnames.ora is copied from to <Second_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin or the environment variable TNS_ADMIN is set system-wide to <First_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin.
I think now it's necessary to create a clean machine (remove all Oracle components as explained in the database installation guide for Windows). Then repeat the installation , but XE and Forms 6i in different ORACLE_HOMEs.
