Hi all,
I prefer tell you I'm french and I may do mistakes... ^^

I would like to know if I must install oracle-xe and oracle-xe-client or If oracle-xe is enough (whithout oracle-xe-client) to test my procedures/queries/etc... ?
Thank you for your help. :D

  • Conflict between oracle 8 and oracle 11

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem installing oracle 8 and oracle 11 homes at the same time. It looks like the system can only recognize one of the homes. I have 2 different applications running in the same computer. One of them uses oracle 11 and the other oracle 8. The problem is, the one with the oracle 8 can't recognize it, and tries to use the 11, saying it doesn't support the connection. I've checked the registry info and it looks like there is only one Home specified. Should I create a new one? More over, when i use the home selector it says there's only one home available.

    cd "app_folder"
    app.exe
    EXIT
    to make sure the variable with be the correct when we tried to open the application. I can use the application linked to the oracle 11 but, when i try to get in the other it gives me the following error:
    The procedure entry point orasql10.sqlxss could not be located in the dynamic link library orasql8.dll.When you change the environment variables in a command line window (run cmd.exe), the changed variable values only exist in that command line window, but those environment variables are inherited by other programs started from the command line window. If the Oracle 8i client is normally listed first in the PATH environment variable, and you want to execute another program that requires the 11g client, you will need to repeat the above steps for the second program.
    You can use a program named Dependency Walker to see which DLL files will be accessed by a program (or even a DLL such as ORASQL10.DLL). In the case of a DLL, you would be able to determine if a specific function name sqlxss (ordinal 183 in this case) exists in that DLL. The Dependency Walker program typically ships with Microsoft's development environments. You can find out more about that program here:

  • Questions on the comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX

    Hi All,
    The link below presents information about Oracle Application Express for Oracle Forms Developers, the table at the end of the page shows a comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX, all the points of comparisons are clear for me except 3 points which are:
    •Locking, what is meant by locking models?
    •Database Connections, what is meant by Synchronous/Asynchronous connections in Oracle Forms and Oracle Apex?
    •Architecture, what is meant by 2tier and 3 tier connections?
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_for_forms.html
    What I need is a simple explanation for these points without deep details.
    Thanks

    Hi
    That is how I understand that document:
    Locking: Forms, by default, locks a row as soon as the user starts modifying the data. That is pessimistic locking. Apex, on other hand (and optionally forms also) do not lock the record, but before applying any changes checks if the data has changed since the user queried it (what for some reason is called optimistic "locking")
    DB connections: I am not sure why they used the terms synchronous/asynchronous, but the difference is that Forms, by default, keeps an permanent DB connection while the user is using the application, while Apex gets a connection from a connection pool every time a page is requested/submitted.
    Architecture: Forms (in its web version at least) has 3 tiers: the browser, the appserver where the forms service runs and the database. As Apex runs inside the database, there are only 2 tiers: the browser and the database (though you still may need an http server in between which serves static content, I don't think it is considered part of the application in this context). If you are talking about client/server forms, then there are only 2 tiers.
    I hope this helps!

  • Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

    Hi,
    I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
    ex:
    With oracle7
    SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
    'CHAMP 'CHAMP
    champ1 champ2
    With Oracle 9
    SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
    'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
    champ1 champ2
    So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
    Thanx.

    Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
    This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
    My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
    Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
    And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
    You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
    Anyway,
    You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
    set lin 310Regards.

  • Differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI and Question BAM  Data Objects

    Hi,
    I have two questions.
    1. Can someone tell me differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI?
    My understanding about Oracle BAM is, we use BAM to build Dashboards or Reports.
    We can also build DashBoards or reports using Oracle BI.
    I am not able to understand why Oracle has two tools for same purpose?
    Which tool is more powerful and user friendly(Oracle BI or Oracle BAM)?
    2. Every time we plan to develop Dashboard or report in BAM, we need to create BAM ADC Data Object to store Data (i.e first step is to get data from external database or application and second step is to store data in BAM ADC data object).
    My understanding is we have an extra step(i.e creating Data Object) in Oracle BAM to develop a report or DashBoard
    I am wrong pl correct me?

    What exactly are you intending to do to Oracle Apps ? You suggest you are a developer, but Oracle Apps are already developed, by Oracle. Do you want to develop peripheral applications, or become an administrator, or what ?

  • It's my 3000 post – Oracle ACE and Oracle employees

    Hello,
    So, this is my post number 3000. In this forum, it’s not so unique, but still I decided to dedicate it to the subject of Oracle ACE and Oracle employees.
    Recently, Joel blogged about Carl awarded Oracle ACE (http://joelkallman.blogspot.com/2009/02/carl-backstrom-oracle-ace.html), after special efforts made by Sharon, because “the folks at the Oracle Technology Network decided that Oracle employees could no longer be awarded the ACE designation”. I truly wish I could write that Carl is a living proof of this decision being misguided. Unfortunately, I can’t. However, Carl’s case paints the situation in strong colors. Only after his death, Carl was honored with something that I’m sure seems so obvious to most of us.
    I’m thinking that if this decision, not to award Oracle employees with Oracle ACE, was made sooner, people like Scott and Joel would not have awarded Oracle ACE, not to mention Tom Kyte, and probably others I’m not familiar with. Scott and Joel deals with APEX all day long, as part of their job, and this forum is not part of their day job description. Still, they find the time to help us all. Just look at the post counter of Scott. I’m amazed each time I see it. Scott, with all his experience, doesn’t limit himself to only the most complicated issues. You can see his replies, to the most basic issues, almost every day. Joel never failed helping me, and many others on this forum, every time there is an issue only he can help with. Scott and Joel were lucky, and have been awarded Oracle ACE, prior to this decision. Carl was less lucky, and as Joel wrote, I can’t think of anyone who better represent the true meaning and spirit of the Oracle ACE program.
    The point I’m trying to make is that Oracle ACE should not be left for luck and timing, or place of work, for that matter. I’m sure that the OTN folks had best intensions when making this decision. I can understand that people might suspect favoritism toward Oracle employees; however, the solution shouldn’t be the easy one – no to every Oracle employee.
    While writing, I can think of Tyler. He’s no longer a member of the APEX team, but we can still enjoy his wisdom and experience on this forum, not to mention his APEX dedicated blog entries, were he covers special and more complex aspects of working with this tool. I don’t know if Tyler qualifies to become Oracle ACE (and, of course, I’m only using him as an example) but it seems wrong to me not to even consider it, just because he happens to work for Oracle. I’m sure there are others like Tyler, in the other forums. I believe that this kind of behavior, by Oracle employees, should be encouraged, and not taken for granted. Certainly, they shouldn’t be penalized.
    So, what all of this has to do with my 3000 posts? I believe I earned the right to call myself a frequent poster on this forum. As such, I know how time consuming this forum can be, not to mention the hard and tedious job of keep repeating the same answers to the same questions, keep pointing to old references, and such. So, I want to take this opportunity to thank all the active participants of this forum, Oracle employees and others. In spite of all the hardship, this forum can also be very rewarding, and at least for me, a very educated experience. I learned a lot in my attempts to help others. I can all heartedly recommend it to everyone who enjoys helping others, and enriching him /her self in the process.
    Regards,
    Arie.

    If I understand you correctly, you ought to reinstall. At this point, even if you're able to resurrect this installation, it might be severely unstable. Mostly because of my proclivity for messing around with settings until I screw something up, I have a tremendous amount of experience with the recovery console, and my success rate is not inspiring. If you have data you need on the drive, your best course of action is to reinstall to a different boot drive, and once you’re able to boot, archive the files you want from the corrupted installation. Then you can wax both drives, restore the data and get everything back the way you want it. Getting your data back from the recovery console is basically a lost cause since it doesn't support wildcards (as in, you'd have to copy every freaking file one at a time).
    I re-read the above paragraph, and it's not the clearest thing I've ever written, so if you need clarification on anything, let me know.

  • Need help -- Oracle Financial 11i vs r12 (Oracle Payable and Oracl Payment)

    Dear all
    I'm newbie in Oracle Application and request for your help to answer my questions.
    Background:
    Three years ago, my company was planning to implement ERP Oracle Financials.
    To facilitate the plan, an open bidding was established to find the best implementing company with affordable price.
    The bidding document was created when Oracle Financials was 11i.
    When the contract was signed 2 years ago, by my company and the winning company, it is mentioned that the version installed must be the latest one.
    At the response to requirements, the winning company stated that the payment activity will be facilitated by Oracle Payable.
    Now, the project is going on and the Oracle has the r.12 version.
    Problem:
    At 11i, there was only one module related to payment activities, i.e. Oracle Payable.
    At r.12, Oracle has a new modul, i.e. Oracle Payment, which was subdomain of Oracle Payable.
    Question:
    1. Is my opinion about the relationship between Oracle Payable and Oracle Payment above correct?
    2. Does my company has its right to ask for Oracle Payment in the installation?
    3. If the answer to number 2 is yes, what is the base for it?
    Thank you for explanation.
    Sorry if I raise a too-simple question.
    Regards,
    Dodydh

    Hi Dodydh,
    I am afraid, your statement 'At r.12, Oracle has a new modul, i.e. Oracle Payment, which was subdomain of Oracle Payable.' is not correct.
    Oracle Payments is an upgrade version of Oracle iPayments of 11i and this module is expected to serve Self service modules. But Payment Batches which is part of Oracle Payables has been moved to Oracle Payments.
    You can very well ask them to implement Payment Batches (Processes relating to Funds Disbursement) but not the entire module.
    Please let me know if you require further info.

  • Accessing Oracle 7 and Oracle 9 Operations

    Hi,
    My application requires Oracle 7 and Oracle 9.
    I created a domain and deployed my application successfully. In my Server lib i have ojdbc.jar which supports Oracle 9. but i need Oracle 7 and Oracle 9 drivers my application can do all DML Operations to the respective Databases.
    Regards,

    Sait, Thanks for the analysis.
    I have DEFAULT_HOME for Oracle 7 and ORACLE_HOME for Oracle 8. Each of them have their own tnsnames.ora, but is almost same. Oracle 8 client install created its tnsnames.ora from existing Oracle 7 tnsnames.ora. There are Oracle dictionary tables like v$session_connect_info, which shows the list of sessions and other details. Is there one to tell the client sql*net version? Or any log file?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Actually I thought that the OCCI forum was for Object oriented OCI, so while I'm using C++, I'm not using the object oriented side of OCI, just using the normal OCI calls. Guess I should have been a little clearer in my original post.
    But my main question really concerned the version of the client and the version of the database which you answered.

  • Oracle Forms and Oracle HTML DB

    Hi,
    can anyone please tell me the difference between oracle forms and oracle htmldb.
    i need to create web applications to display data from database and upload newly entered data in to the database.
    can the above be done by both forms and htmldb.
    which one is better.

    Both can display data from the database via the web.
    With the very little criteria you mentioned, I would recommend HTML DB. With more details about the requirements, I may change that recommendation.
    I have been working with HTML DB off and on for about one year. I have taken one 3-day course. I have worked with Oracle Forms since 1987 version 2.0, so I know quite a bit about it.
    Here are my reasons:
    1.) File upload is easier in HTML DB. HTML DB provides an easy means for uploading a file to the database and processing it.
    2.) HTML DB is included as part of the database product. There is no other licensing fee for it. Oracle Forms is part of the Oracle IDS product which a separate purchase from the database.
    3.) For HTML DB all you need is the database and the HTTP server program running. It is easy to install, even for a DBA non-webmaster type person. (DBAs who are also webmasters please do not hammer me on this comment.) For Oracle Forms on the web, you need the Oracle Application Server up and running which is a major undertaking. It also needs its own Oracle database running for the infrastructure.
    4.) Since you are asking about both, I would assume that you are not familiar with either product and will need to be trained. HTML DB is easier learn than Oracle Forms. Oracle Forms is very powerful, but with that power comes a lot to learn.
    Oh yea, did I mention that if you own the Oracle database, you also own HTML DB!! ;)

  • Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets

    Please, where can I get the documentation to publish Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets. I found some information about it in metalink but the URLs are invalid.

    Hi,
    Here are the steps you need to follow while building Portlets .
    1) After creating a Application,in the last step click on the Checkbox 'EXPOSE AS PROVIDER'.
    If the application has already been created ,click on the same checkbox in the grant access section.
    2) When creating a component within the application ,select the checkbox 'PUBLISH TO PORTAL'.
    Incase ,you have already created the component then just click on the same option in the grant access section.
    Now when you want to add these portlets to be part of a page .Just select the provider(Application) and the portlets under it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Oracle forms and Oracle reports for Oracle 9i

    Hello,
    I'm searching for Oracle forms and Oracle reports that works with Oracle 9i.
    Does someone know where I can find them?
    Thanks in advance...

    When we talk about Oracle9i, we often mean the database version 9i.
    Apparently you want to use Forms and Reports 9i, which included in the obsolete (and very unhappy) Application Server 9i. ... Or the also obsolete Application Server 10g Release 1 (aka App Server 9.0.4.
    You are encouraged to look at Forms and Reports 10g (part of the improved Application Server 10g) which does connect to Oracle Database 9i as well as Oracle Database 10g. Look for App Server 10g Release 2, version 10.1.2.0.2 and 10.1.2.2)

Maybe you are looking for
