APEX 2.2.1 Upgrade

Hi,
I have HTMLDB 1.6 installed and I would like to upgrade to 2.2.1 .
Do I have to go to 2.2 first or can I just go from 1.6 directly to 2.2.1 ?
(in other words is 2.2.1 just a patch of a full version ?)
Thanks
Francis.

You install 2.2.1. It is a complete release. It does the upgrade automatically from 1.6.1 for you. Works really fine.

APEX 3.1.2 upgrade Question.

Hi All,
Currently we have APEX 3.0.1.00.08 on Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bi Linux. Is it possible to upgrade to 3.1.2 on the same database?
Is the any issues if I upgraded to 3.1.2? My current version of applications works fine without any issues? Please help me.
Thanks

Hi Dan,
I forgot to ask and I am confused. Patch notes doesn't say we can install on any patch set or the version I have. Do you think fresh installation is best or patch is fine.
The Oracle Application Express 3.1.2.00.02 patch set can be applied to Oracle Application Express release 3.1.0.00.32 or Oracle Application Express release 3.1.1.00.09. Apply the patch to the Oracle database where Oracle Application Express schemas are installed. This patch will determine if additional languages are installed, and will apply the patch for those languages as well. Oracle9i release 2 (9.2.0.3) and higher supports this patch set.
Please help me.
Thanks

Apex 4 problem after upgrading - apex$_rpt_src error

Hi all -
I just upgraded my Apex installation Sunday, and yesterday I also installed the sample websheet application and told it to create the objects in the default schema my other stuff resides in.
Today, one of my users said there's a problem with one of the pages, saying "missing right parenthesis", so going through the debug I see what the problem is. At the end of one of the queries, it looks like Apex added the following:
apex$_rpt_src )
I'm wondering if this is related to my adding the sample websheet application in the same schema as my "real" data and application? It seems strange though that it (so far) only seems to be happening with this one query. out of around a hundred or so different ones. The offending "addition" of code isn't visible in the actual query specification itself, so I don't know how to get rid of it. Anybody else run across this and have an idea on how to get rid of it? Will deleting the sample app fix the problem?
Thanks,
Bill Ferguson

Hi Christina,
All of my report regions are "manuallly created" reports. The wizards didn't provide enough functionality, and I'm still trying to figure out how or if I can incorporate IR reports.
The websheet application works fine, I just included it in the same schema as my regular apps for convenience. At first, due the naming of what appeared to be the problem code (apex$_rpt_src), I was wondering if it was related to the websheet app, but it wasn't.
The problem line in my manual reports was originally the included an order by clause, which I later commented out. Having the last line commented out seemed to have caused my problem. I think that probably this all gets wrapped up by Apex where it inserts the intial left paren "(", then what I specify for my query, then appends the trailing "apex$_rpt_src)", and since my last line was commented out, the ending "apex_rpt_src)" wound up getting commented out as well.
Perhaps a "fix" to programmer mistakes like mine would be to modify the code that appends "apex_rpt_src)" to be "chr(13) apex_rpt_src)", so there is a new line before the added code? This would circumvent people like myself inadvertently commenting the last line of their queries and causing unintended problems that are difficult to find.
Hope this helps.

APEX 2.2.1 upgrade - htmldb_collection.create_collection_from_query problem

We have recently upgraded a production application from 1.6 to 2.2.1 and have found a problem creating a collection from a query in a before header process. The page no longer displays and we eventually get the standard http request failed message after over 60 seconds. I have traced this session and the process appears to hang after parsing then executing the cursor i.e. does not fetch the results.
The SQL is based on a view that uses connect by prior and runs fine within SQL+ (under 1 second to return 63 rows). Other queries passed to the API appear to work fine whether they are based on tables and/or views. Have also tried changing the reference to apex_collection but still get the same issue.
Have changed the shared_pool_size to 100M as recommended for the upgrade.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue or can recommend a better/alternative method to achieve the following:
if ( htmldb_collection.collection_exists( v_collection_name ) )
then
htmldb_collection.delete_collection( v_collection_name );
else
htmldb_collection.create_collection_from_query
(p_collection_name => v_collection_name ,
p_query => 'select distinct
t.customer_id --1
, t.fiscal_year --2
, t.financial_header_id --3
, t.financial_item_id --4
, t.sequence --5
, t.code --6
, t.description --7
, t.is_title --8
, t.is_item --9
, t.is_negative --10
, t.is_hidden --11
, t.connect_by_isleaf --12
, null this_year_minus_0 --13
, null this_year_minus_1 --14
, null this_year_minus_2 --15
from financial_statements t where ( t.is_hidden = 0 )');
end if;
Thanks, Ian

Daniel,
That API is meant to be used from within an application, from a page process, for example. So I would expect an error from where you are calling it. (Disregard browser language question.)
When you said:
Our production version are 2.0.0.00.49 because we have a 9.2 database.
...what do you mean? You can use any version of Application Express with 9.2.0.3 or higher database.

APEX 3.1.2 upgrade issue!!!

Hi,
Interesting I just installed 11g (on Vmware) and updated APEX to 3.1.2. The script log seems without errors and the
SELECT STATUS FROM DBA_REGISTRYWHERE COMP_ID = 'APEX';
shows VALID.
BUT, I can't even login as admin on .../apex/apex_admin!!!
And I don't know why, I just followed the install doc from the APEX to 3.1.2 documentation, do anyone have a clue why or what I should do?
Thanks
Milan

Applications not working after upgrade from apex 3.2 to apex 4

hi,
we've created an application with apex 3.2 which works fine.
today we upgraded apex 3.2 to apex 4. after the upgrade the application doesn't work anymore.
we recognized the following things:
- interactive reports don't work anymore
- tabs don't work anymore
- buttons don't work anymore
what do we have to do, to get our apex 3.2 application to work with apex 4?
regards,
matthias

I've seen similar problems to my applications. I've found a problem with the derived columns or link columns in reports. The only solution I founded is to delete the columns and then make them again. Now are working. No problem founded specifically for the interactive reports. If there is an automated solution for the derived columns or link columns it will be appreciated ;-).

Report doesn't work after upgrading Apex 4.1

We have configured Apex to use BIP report, everything works fine until upgrading to 4.1.
The error message we got is below:

It seems there's some problem with the source of the query (Shared Components->Report Queries). But we couldn't find the reason. Is it some kind of bug? Also, is there a way to know which line of the query raise the error?
Thank you in advance.

Upgrade issue from apex 4.0 to 4.1.1

Dear all expert,
I'm facing an problem on execute sys.dbms_network_acl_admin package after upgrade from apex 4.0 to apex 4.1.1 in Oracle XE 11g R2.
After checking, i found the "XDB.PATH_VIEW" view have compilation error, this cause the sys.dbms_network_acl_admin package failed to compile as well.
My upgrading step as below (apex 4.0 to apex 4.1.1):
1. Drop apex_040000 user by execute "drop user apex_040000 cascade"
2. Drop user flows files by execute "drop user flows_files cascade"
3. I rename existing apex folder (apex 4.0) to apex 2 from c:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server.
4. I copy apex folder for apex 4.1.1 (download from oracle website) into c:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server.
5. i start activate apex by execute "@apexins.sql", "@apxldimg.sql" and "@apex_epg_config.sql"
Above are the steps that i used to upgrade my apex 4.0 to apex 4.1.1. "sys.dbms_network_acl_admin" package failed to compile after i run "@apexins.sql".
Can anyone advice on how to solve the problem above or what is the way to upgrade apex 4.0 to apex 4.1.1?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best regards,
Apex Junior

After the upgrade from APEX 3.0.2 to 4.0.2.00.07, this HTML code is not interpreted anymore, so now the literal text is displayed instead of a white space.

Oracle upgrade: whether Apex application will be affect

Hi All,
We plan to upgrade our current DB to a new server and new oracle database( from 10.2.0.1 32bit to 11gR2 64bit) by using export/import.
My question is currently there are many APEX applications running in 10.2.0.1(around 20 Apex applications), and our client may not need to upgrade apex at the same time.
I am not sure whether this upgrade will cause any issues to the Apex applications or what should to be done for Apex before the DB upgrade.
The current version of Apex is 3.2.0.00.27. Any Advices or Documentations is highly appreciated.
Thanks very much for your attention.
Regards
Rachel

11gR2 includes Apex version 3.2.1. I have not tried this process, but this should work
1. Install 11gR2 software
2. Create an empty database.
3. Drop any APEX related schemas
4. Perform a full export from 10.2.0.1 and then perform a full import into 11gR2

Upgrade Oracle database 10.2.1.0 to 11gR2 without upgrading APEX

Hi,
How can we upgrade Oracle database 10.2.1.0 to 11gR2 without upgrading APEX? We currently have APEX 3.0 running in our 10g databases and don't want these APEX schemas to be upgraded to APEX 3.2.x during the database upgrade. We'll want to test everything before upgrading these APEX schemas manually to 4.1.1 later.
Thanks.
Andy

Pretty sure running the 11gR2 catalog upgrade won't touch your apex. Can't speak for using the upgrade utility, never used it.
Windows? Or *nix hosts? On windows fixing the oradim setups are more of challenge.

Issues with using Embedded PL SQL Gateway with Apex 4.2

Hi,
I have installed Oracle 11g R2 and want to develop an application using Apex 4.2 (needs upgrade from 3.2 version which has come bundled).
For the server, I would like to use the Oracle HTTP server, but it seems to require a separate license as against the same in Oracle10g.
I would like to know what are the performance related issues b/w using the embedded PL/SQL Gateway (Oracle XML DB HTTP Server) that comes with Oracle 11g R2 as against the HTTP Server found as a part of the fusion middleware bundle. Is it wise to procure the license for HTTP Server?
Details:
DB OS: Windows 7 (64 bit) (DB and Apex are on the same machine)
Number Of Users of application: 10-20
Application is mainly used more for keeping track of details as against heavy processing or the like
Thanks

For the server, I would like to use the Oracle HTTP server, but it seems to require a separate license as against the same in Oracle10g.What gives you this impression? The licensing position remains the same: OHS is covered by the DB license if OHS is run on the same server. See Joel's post and the document he links to: +{message:id=9256804}+.

Change over from Apex to Application Express

When I connect to Oracle 10G XE I use the following URL:
http://127.0.0.1:8087/apex/f?p=4550:11:73807998927860::NO:::
Now I have downlaoded Oracle Application Express. How do I use it with my existing data on 10G XE?
Do I need to have 11g?
Thanks

Perhaps the following will help:
Oracle has a family of Database products. These are released every few years. The last few releases are
Oracle 7; Oracle8; Oracle8i Database; Oracle9i Database; Oracle Database 10g; Oracle Database 10g Release 2; Oracle Database 11g; Oracle Database 11g Release 2
For Oracle Database 10g Release 2, the family consists of a number of Editions which represent groups of features. In the follow list of editions, each successive one to the right includes the features of the one to the left:
Express Edition; Standard Edition One; Standard Edition; Enterprise Edition; Personal Edition
SO you can see, Express Edition (known as XE) has the fewest features. Each feature, when released, has a version. Some of these features included with Express Edition are
- SQL language version 10.2.0.1
- Oracle Networking 10.2.0.1
- SQL*Plus 10.2.0.1
- Oracle XDB 10.2.0.2
- Application Express 2.2 (known in the community as HTMLDB, ApEx or Apex)
The Apex feature gives us several capabilities: a web application development tool; an Oracle database access tool; (with XDB) a web application run time engine a bit like a mini Apache server. All of these capabilities (and more) are available using a browser.
Apex 2.2 was a customized version of Apex designed for Express Edition. It includes several applications that can be used to administer an Oracle database.
Oracle designed Apex to be easily upgraded. Since "Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Express Edition" (Oracle 10g XE for short) Oracle has provided several new versions, any of which can run in XE. However, the special applications used to manage Oracle DB are not available.
By looking on the page I previously mentioned, you can get an idea of the new capabilities available in the newest version of Apex - version 3.2. It's up to you to decide whether it's worth losing the DB Admin capabilities in order to get those new Apex developer capabilities.
In any case, you shoudl have enough background now to at least look at, and start to understand, the Apex tutorial and some of the other info on the Apex page, as well as the XE documentation page at http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage
