(( APEX host needed - Suggestions? ))

July 29, 2010
Hello,
I am new to APEX.
I am learning APEX with
APEX.ORACLE.COM
I would like to find an INEXPENSIVE APEX HOST--
that is a GOOD HOST.
I would like to spend $10 month.
(Maybe $15 or so if necessary.)
Is it possible to get a GOOD HOST in this price range?
I would like to get FEEDBACK
about HOSTS people are using.
Information like this would help me and a LOT of new
APEX users:
WHAT HOST are you using?
How much are you PAYING?
How GOOD is their SERVICE?
Do they have PHONE SUPPORT?
How fast is their EMAIL / TICKET support?
Is it in the U.S? UK? India? Where?
How much do you LIKE them?
Do they have any MAJOR LIMITATIONS?
Are they RELIABLE?
Is there anything you DON'T LIKE about them?
What do you LIKE MOST about them?
Your answers will help me and A LOT of other people!
Thanks for your help.
I really appreciate it!

Hi
We have been using http://www.maxapex.com for last 2 years. Very satisfied. Initially we hosted our Issue Tracking system at MaxApex. After that we hosted several applications for different clients. Everyone satisfied.
Their hosting plan starts with $10/month for 25MB. Support is prompt. They have gone extra mile for us many times if we need anything special. Servers are in US.

Apex hosting 4 gbytes price per year?

Hi all,
Where can be found apex hosting with stable
IP address, 4 gbytes, minimum one year?
thanks in advance
Gordan

I second the idea to not judge service by website design. I made that mistake. I first signed up with someone who's website design is very professional. After dealing with their support staff, it became very apparent that they don't really support APEX. Here's an excerpt from a trouble ticket to see what I mean:
My Original Problem
Can't execute stored procedure as URL
I've been in contact with you via email on this. I have not receive any reply for the past few days. Thought I'd switch this to a trouble ticket to get some visibility.
In my last email, I said:
What I'm trying to accomplish is to store data in a BLOB column in the database. Then using some HTP calls in my package, it sends the data back to the browser (Denes Kubicek's method). This allows me to use simple html tags in the apex pages to go directly to the URL for the package. I've tried several other methods, but this is the only one I've found that gives me such precise control over how the data gets presented on the page.
I'm just wondering if you can help me with this or not.
You can see what I'm talking about on page 2-21 and 2-22 in the Oracle Application Express Administration Guide Release 3.1.2 E12856-01.

Re : Can't execute stored procedure as URL
Hello,
We are not sure what is it we need to do. We beleive this is more application design issue rather than APEX hosting issue
My Response on 11/3/2008 10:18:50 PM
Re : Can't execute stored procedure as URL
I think I made a mistake by including the information that I used to fix the problem on my development server.
Going back to my original problem: I am receiving a 403 Forbidden error with the following URL: http.www.somenonsense.xyz/pls/apex/my_package.jpg?img_id=31
This is a permission issue on your server.

Re : Can't execute stored procedure as URL
Hello, unfortunately this procedure does not work in our environment.
We are seeing [Tue Nov 04 01:06:47 2008] [error] [client 24.46.67.250] mod_plsql: /pls/apex/mypackage.jpg HTTP-403 It is forbidden to call this procedure directly from the browser!
You are the only client asking this change, therefore we can not risk breaking working APEX for 1 request.
If you'd like money back , we fully understand
I'm sure that the hosting company's many other hosting services like mySQL are better supported, but I'd never go back to them as an APEX hosting site. So, I would suggest that you contact the support of any hosting site you are considering for APEX and ask some questions. I did this with maxapex and got very good response times from them. I actually was able to hold an email conversation with their support over a number of days. That might mean they're a smaller company, but APEX is the only thing they do, so they know it really well.

Apex hosting

Hi,
I'm in the process of creating a site with Apex that will generate some $'s for the person I'm building the site for. As apex.oracle.com can not be used for commercial sites I will have to find an Apex “ISP”
I’m looking for a hosting plan that can start low, in price, bandwidth etc, and grow as the visitors and needs increase.
I’ve contacted a few of the hosting sites listed on the [Apex hosting page|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_com_hosting.html] but have not heard from them after 5 days.
Now I know the potential $’s they can earn from me is small, but I do find the long time in replying disturbing. What if my production site is down? Will they then take 5+ days to respond as well?
I also find that some of the sites mentioned on the Apex Hosting page contain no information about the Apex hosting except a short sentence that they do provide it.
Ok that is my gripe out of the way.
Can anybody suggest a reliable affordable, Apex “ISP” ??
Kind regards
Johannes
Ps. I know I’m being cheap but my budget is +/- 7.50 Euro p/m. The guy I’m building the site for just got declared bankrupt and I’m building it for him out of friendship and I wil pay hosting costs for the 1st 2 years.

Rob,
Just to clarify, I have nothing to do with Apexskins at all (other than hosting it for the owner), so I'm not sure which themes you're referring to?

REWARDS: Please remember to mark helpful or correct posts on the forum, not just for my answers but for everyone!Hi John,Sorry, I didnt mean to suggest you were. I was just explaining one of my (minor) exasperations when I was looking for some custom themes. Having bought your book - and learnt from many of the constributions you and your co-conspiritor have made here, when I was looking for alternate themes I scanned your website first. I saw this...
^Template Factory^
^Whether you want a completely customised look and feel to your application or you just want a change from the standard built-in themes and templates that are shipped with Application Express, our experienced APEX experts together with our talented graphic designers can come up with the design that suits your needs.^
^You can either give us a specific design or idea to work with, or leave it completely up to us to come up with a unique design for you, alternatively you may wish to use one of our custom designs from our library.^
I like the idea of being able to browse a library and possibly buy. But I was unable to do so on the site. So I looked elsewhere, and as I say, eventually made purchases from both www.apexskins and www.apex-themes. I didnt realise you were the host.
In any case, this was more a case of me being frustrated at not being able to do what I wanted when I wanted, and not meant to be a damning criticism.
Keep up the good work - you and many others in this forum have improved my own skill sets, so thank you!
Cheers,

I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and how to configure that disk

I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
what other
external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
how to configure that disk.
A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
Machine is not backing up my files
on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
the Fusion virtual machine.

If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.

Need suggestion on how to do 3D spinning title animation

Hello all experts,
I need suggestion on how to do 3D rotating title animation. Let me explain what i wanted to do.
The end product is the word WELCOME.
But I want to animate it in such a way that the alphabelt W first appear as nothing from inside the screen to appear in the screen (that means zoom from small to big, is it called zoom out ?). In the process of zooming out, I want the W to have a thickness & it spins very fast along the horizontal X-axis and stops at the screen with the alphbelt W.
Then the whole process repeat with E, and I have WE. It then repeats with L and I have WEL. This whole thing repeats until it forms the word WELCOME.
Any suggestions ? Is there an inbuilt preset for this ?
If not, if I do from scratch, do I need a separate track for each alphabelt ?
Thank you very much.
Cheers.

You would have to build this one from scratch, but it's pretty easy.
Work on the whole word first to get the basic movement, then play with the Timing settings in the Inspector. To have the letters do this one after the other use the Sequence setting. Typically you would set it to the number of letters in your word plus 1 -so your welcome should have a Sequence value of 8. You can of course set it to whatever you think looks best.
Give it a go and let us know how you get on. Don't forget to save your new effect!
Thanks Holmes but where do I find the Sequence settings ?
Thanks

Any idea how can I display Previous Completed Cycle and Completion Date (i.e. the last two columns)?
Regards,
Vikrant.

hi vikrant,
You can a Cube at the reporting layer which gets data from DSO and which has these 2 extra characteristics completion date and previous cycle along with other chars and keyfigures from DSO.
You can populate these based on your logic in the field routine.
Hope it helps.

Need Suggestion: buy ThinkPad Edge E540 or wait for Edge E550?

Hello Everyone,
I need suggestion what to do: buy ThinkPad Edge E54020C6003AGE (i7 4702MQ & GF 740M 2GB) or wait for Edge E550?
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Lenovo-ThinkPad-Edge-E540-20C6003AGE-Notebook.114194.0.html in Germany is price about 830 Euros
I use ThinkPads in last 10 years for study and gaming (R60, SL510, Edge 520) and wish sell my Edge E520 replace it with new one due stuck with old Radeon 6630M drivers (I cannot use a new AMD drivers when I try I getting mostly BOSD errors and latest Official Lenovo driver is from 2012) second reason is that E520 fan cannot be accessed & cleaned on easy way.
In which month Lenovo mostly release new Edges, What is your option are Broadwell CPU + GeForce 840/940M in Edges worth to wait?
In future I try to avoid AMD GPU due poor drivers support.
I know that there is much better notebooks for gaming but I like ThinkPads

To support it the model you're buying should be equiped with the :
Intel® Dual Band Wireless-N 7260
Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260
Wireless network adapters and core i5/i7 cpu's . But careful, not all E540s come with the intel wireless card
Just check this and you're good to go.

Need suggestion-abap+bi

Dear gurus,
I need suggestion before learning new module. I did ABAP and having good experience. Now I want to update my skill please suggest me wat I should learn. I want to upgrade my skill only in technical side. Few of them suggested me BI but dont know how good it will be in US market.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Dave

Hi Aasim,
Even the carrer growth in ABAP is very Good.
IN BW project, there is requirement of ABAPer. So if you are BW+ABAP, you will be getting paid more. Your value would be more.
Now, making a shift, even you want to change from ABAP to BW, you need to take some training. Because BW abap is a bit different thatn general ABAP.
The DW experience is not needed very much.but yes, its better to have knowledge in DW.
I'll suggest you to work for 6 months in ABAP and then take a training in BW. Because its more BW than ABAP in BW.
Hope you would have got some idea.
Please revert for any other questions.
Thanks..

Need suggestion

hi....i need suggestion on my problem.i've been given a complete atand-alone java application.my assignment is to make the system,a web-based system so that when we want to make a demo we did not need to bring an installer.just show to from the browser.i thought of using java web start.it's just my opinion.so,i want to hear others opinion......
Tq

Java Web Start is the solution I would choose. You must bear in mind that a browser is not enough to run Java Web Start - the client PC must have the correct version of the run-time environment (JRE) installed as a minimum - which, I think, is somewhere about a 10-15 megabyte installation.
The run-time environment for end-users is best/readily installed from the http://www.java.com site. Click the "get it now" button and away you go!
Alternatively, I think some PCs actually recognise when you've clicked on a JNLP link and automatically check your to see if you have a version of the JRE and download it if necessary - but I'm not 100% sure if this can be relied upon across all platforms/browsers...
I think you can also program your JNLP file as to where to look for the JRE installer (ie: maybe on your LAN instead of www.java.com), but I haven't researched that one yet.

Need suggestion whether to use ATM or MPLS in DSL implementation

Presently i am working in ISP, and we are providing internet access via simple dialup, ISDN and IVS. and now we want to implement DSL i ve talk with few peoples regarding whether to use ATM or MPLS in DSL implementation but because they are solution providers so i think they are giving me expensive solution. as long as i know about this is,whole world is shifting from ATM to MPLS Technology. ATM implementation cost is very high. so i need suggestion from u because you also have practical exposure.

I believe ATM is soon getting obsolete...

Need suggestion for new laptop

Hi, everyone I'm needing suggestions. I had a touchsmart tx2z however after nearly 4 years it has bit the dust couldn't be saved after its last crash computer would turn on but screen would stay black and ome of the keys like the caps lock would flash. Computer guys say my motherboard has gone bad. I'm looking for another computer now but would like one that is similar to the hp touchsmart but does not cost a lot of money.

Here is the current line-up of HP Touchscreen Laptops. Prices start at about $650 and go up from there. $650 sounds OK to my for a touchscreen laptop, but price is a subjective item. If these are too rich for you, you could always look at regular laptops.
Please send KUDOs
