Apex OS requirements

I have a question about the requirements to install an Oracle 10 or 11 XE edition and use APEX.
Does Oracle XE / Apex run on Windows XP for tablet edition??
Or does it need the XP professional edition ??

You mean I need to read the requirements in the [System Requirements|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm]
I did, and it says:
Operating system
One of the following Microsoft Windows operating systems:
Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 - all editions
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 - all editions
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 - Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, and Foundation editions. The Server Core option is not supported.
Microsoft Windows 7 - Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions
So my question is, does this mean that ir really doen not run on an XP tablet version ??
Or may it run but Oracle dioes not support it?

Urgent Apex validation required.

Hi All,
In my application i have following items like
Select List: Emp No
Select List: Emp name
Text Box:where they can enter same Emp Name
Text Box:where we can enter description.
Now the requiremnet is Description can not null.
cas1: When we select Emp No & Emp Name i will be dsiplaying descrption and it will be in readonly.
Case2: If we enete manaulaly in Text box of Empname then description text box will be in editable mode which helps user to enter the descritpion.
I have a problem in case 1 assuimg that if we do not have description for selected emp No & name and when we clik on save button i having call a Item not nul validation staying that "Description can not be null".
But this should happen only for case2 when we enter manually, but for case1 i need to handle error message some other way.
How do we can achieve this?
Anoo..

Put a condition on the validation which runs when the Emp Name text item is NULL (Item is null).
Have another validation when that item is NOT NULL for case 2

Best Practice for implementing dual APEX applications environment

Question:
We are in the early stages of building an APEX application for Oracle SaaS consumption. The question I wanted to ask you is what would be the best way to deploy this app for production? Would it be easier just to create a new workspace in apex.oraclecorp.com and export the app definition or create a new instance of APEX container? Also, if we were to create a new container then what are all the hardware/middleware required?
Follow up questions:
1. What are you building and for what purpose?
We are building an application for oracle employees (development, operations, and support) to assist in interacting with the CRM Saas environments. Entering bugs, tracking patch level, obtaining relevant environment contacts & urls.
2. Who will be installing this application? Oracle customers? In their own on-premise APEX instances? Oracle Cloud?
For the foreseeable future, there will only be the one internal install for internal use (CRM SaaS Enablement Team, DevOps).
3. What are the database and APEX version requirements you'll have for this application?
We do not have a particular requirement. The latest GA version would be the best candidates.
4. Is it safe to say that there is minimal understanding & experience of APEX on your team?
All we know is self-taught and from forum responses. Part of the problem we face is that we don’t know how to frame the questions in a way they can be understood.
APEX container - By this I mean a fully functional APEX environment where applications can be deployed to.
Use Case - We want to be able to make our Apex app available to the consumer (see above) and also continue to develop new features into that app for use at a later date. We are asking for information about a development model that works well for Apex apps.
Thanks!!

Moved the question to the internal Oracle forum:

Apex in IFRAME login problem (P3P IE6+)

Hi
I have problem with Apex application in Frame. I can't login to my APEX app because IE6 or 7 blocked cookies. I browsed internet about it and problem is in P3P.
At this time I add to my Apex app this meta tag (changed Templates)
*<meta http-equiv="P3P" content='CP="IDC DSP COR CURa ADMa OUR IND PHY ONL COM STA"'>*
but problem is still.
Also I found in the Internet some solution for other platform:
For example
1. PHP
header('P3P:CP="IDC DSP COR ADM DEVi TAIi PSA PSD IVAi IVDi CONi HIS OUR IND CNT"');
2. ASP.NET
HttpContext.Current.Response.AddHeader("p3p","CP=\"IDC DSP COR ADM DEVi TAIi PSA PSD IVAi IVDi CONi HIS OUR IND CNT\"");
*3. APEX*
*?????????? -- some ideas?*
Can you help me ??

Hi
Any APEX app requires authentication (even if that authentication is 'No Authentication') of some kind. Are you trying to access it from another web page or using SSO, or is your custom authentication scheme referencing something tabular within your database?
Cookie management is handled by the browser and therefore not necessarily applicable to the APEX app that you are trying to access unless you are already authenticated within the same session.
I'm not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve in your web page, accessing an Apex region or page within an iframe without any kind of authentication within the Apex app itself?
Sorry, if I have misunderstood, maybe you could post an example on apex.oracle.com and show me what you are trying to do and we should be able to help.
Cheers

Installing Apex 4 on Oracle 11.2.0.3 with Oracle HTTP Server on WINDOWS

Has someone put together a cookbook on installing the above? I have tried following the documentation; but it is in dire need of updating. I have become quite confused as to how to piece together alll of the parts. Seemed much easier in 10.2...
TIA!

TIA!After a database re-install on my Windows 7 laptop 2 months ago I tried to install the HTTP server but had trouble getting it to work. After a day or two I gave up and used the EPG which works with some performance issues - pages can take many seconds to render. I think there is a conflict between the EPG and security software on the laptop but have not been able to pin down the exact problem. Anyway, the EPG is not an option for you and even Oracle does not reccommend it for production implementations. The EPG is okay for quick-and-dirty R & D but real implentation should have something better. I prefer the EPG on my laptop because the Apex listener required an extra window to be open that I was likely to close by mistake (my error yes. Reality is sometimes stupid).
I have had several sucessful installs on older versions of Apex on Oracle 9 and 10 on Windows XP using the HTTP server but always struggle with the configuration; getting the settings in the .conf file (whatever it is called now) correct remains difficult (at least for me). I keep installation notes on problems encountered and their solutions. Typical issues I encounter are
1. Incorrect configuration file settings
2. Improper loading of images
3. Missing installation steps (unlocking ANONYMOUS, for instance, or not updating the PL/SQL version).
4. Make sure the correct URL is being used
5. When using the HTTP Server making sure it is running by using its URL is very heplful
Follow the installation instructions for your platform and listener. If something does not work first review the installtion instructions very carefully, then perform web searches for answers to the problem. Except for last time when I lost patience with the HTTP server the installations have always worked.
I also find Windows 7 painful - the added security prevents me from editing needed files without jumping through hoops. I don't even want to think about Windows 8 ...

Trouble accessing APEX 3.1 after installation

I competed all the steps in the installation.
I have Oracle Standard Edition on my laptop that's running Windows Vista Business.
When I try and access the site with http://localhost:8080/apex I am using "admin" for the username and the password I created for admin.
When I go to the site, there is window that pops up for the username an password. It doesn't actually go to the site.
I enter the login info, but the pop-up window stays the same. Then I enter it again 2 more times and the page displays as "Unauthorized."
Any suggestions?

The database into which you installed Apex is required to be open and available during the installation process. The listener may or may not have to be shutdown.
What were the 'checks' and 'configuration' scripts you ran to configure the Oracle HTTP server ? Do they match the steps detailed in section 4.5.2 at

Apex 4.0 Cascading Select List: ajax problem with german umlaute

Hi everybody,
Apex 4.0
Dad PlsqlNLSLanguage: GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8MSWIN1252
I have problems with german umlaute and ajax cascading select lists (Cascading LOV Parent Item).
The data is populated without a page refresh in the select list when the parent select list changes but special signs like german umlaute are shown as weird characters.
Seems like there is some charset problem with ajax.
This is the only part of the application where special signs like umlaute are messed up. Everything else is fine.
I allready tried to figure out if I can escape the umlaute in the javascript (file apex_widget_4_0.js) but no success here.
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Markus

Hi Markus,
your specified character set in your DAD is wrong. As mentioned in the installation instructions at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/install.40/e15513/otn_install.htm#CHDHCBGI , Oracle APEX always requires AL32UTF8.
>
3. Locate the line containing PlsqlNLSLanguage.
The PlsqlNLSLanguage setting determines the language setting of the DAD. The character set portion of the PlsqlNLSLanguage value must be set to AL32UTF8,
regardless of whether or not the database character set is AL32UTF8. For example:Regards

APEX's use of indexes

Hi. We are considering a move to APEX, but I'm noticing that APEX will require underlying tables to have single column primary key values selected from a sequence. Many of our tables are setup with multiple column primary keys such as project_code and participant_id. We use this type of Primary Key in order to make sure there are no duplicate records on the table sharing the same project_code and participant_id.
A couple of questions. Any help answering one or more would be much appreciated...
1) What is the point of using a single column primary key value selected from a sequence?
2) And why does APEX only work with these types of primary keys and is it going to be a difficult transition for us the way we are setup now?
3) Is there a good doc to describe each type of Primary Key to help me understand them better?

Hi "sharpe",
I am saying that with Application Express 4.1 or later, you could have a 30-member composite primary key and it doesn't matter. It would not present a problem. You would simply choose to specify ROWID as the unique row identifier when building forms and tabular forms.

Executing APEX_INSTANCE_ADMIN inside APEX Application

Hi,
I'm having trobule when I try to execute APEX_INSTANCE_ADMIN.SET_PARAMETER from an apex application.( For further information, I'm trying to implement this Re: Changing SMTP server from Apex Application )
I have the following scenario:
1) An Oracle Schema associated to an APEX Workspace (with one application inside)
2) Oracle Schema has been granted with APEX_ADMINISTRATOR_ROLE
3) If I execute (via SQL Developer) from my Oracle Schema:
begin
execute immediate 'ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = APEX_040100';
APEX_INSTANCE_ADMIN.SET_PARAMETER('SMTP_HOST_ADDRESS','localhost');
end;It works fine.
4) So I put that code inside a PL/SQL Package
5) Then, I try to execute package from Apex Application, and I get:
Error:ORA-20987: APEX - User requires ADMIN privilege to perform this operation. - Contact your application administrator.What am I missing? Who is executing my package code when calling it from APEX? Do I have to grant APEX_ADMINISTRATOR_ROL to other users?
Thanks

Installing Apex Listener

Hi ppl,
I'm new to Oracle and i'm trying to install Oracle Apex Listener but when i try to open the apex.war file is giving me an error:
$ java -jar apex.war
Failed to load Main-class manifes attribute from apex
i see in another topic that if i create a txt file inserting the MainClass: Main-Class that my error will disappear.
i'm using VM with OEL 5

Hi, and welcome to the OTN forums,
does your OEL have a proper JDK available? Please note that APEX Listener requires at least a JDK 1.6 Update 20 (really JDK, not just JRE) to work properly.
To verify, you can run
java -versionIf you JDK is fine, could you please describe which version of APEX Listener you are trying to start that way?

Hi,
From Apex Installation Guide :
Oracle Application Express version 4.0 requires an Oracle database (Enterprise Edition, Standard Edition or Standard Edition >One) that is release 10.2.0.3 or higher. Application Express 4.0 can also be used with Oracle Database 10g Express.[Apex Installation Guide|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/install.40/e15513/pre_require.htm#i1009513]
I didn't check which DB are supported on your OEL version but if it is supported by an apex DB required so it should work.

SQL report link to another report

Hello,
I am using Apex 4 and trying to link an sql report with another report. If I were able to use an interactive report I could easily link that to another page, but that would require me to have a primary key. The problem is that I need to link a few tables. So two questions:
1.) Can I link these via an HTML link to my other page? I would have a HTML link in my report that would link via URL parameter passing. So can I use HTML in a report?
2.) What is the syntax for a parameter passing via URL? Here is my link that would be:
a href= f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION::::P40_NAME:MARK: Are there any other ways to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Mark

I am using Apex 4 and trying to link an sql report with another report. If I were able to use an interactive report I could easily link that to another page
It's easy in standard reports< /a>. (Ignore the "Interactive Report" typo in step 1.)
1.) Can I link these via an HTML link to my other page? I would have a HTML link in my report that would link via URL parameter passing. So can I use HTML in a report?You can, but it's better practice to keep data retrieval and HTML structure separate when possible—in this case by using declarative Column Links.
2.) What is the syntax for a parameter passing via URL?This is also covered in the documentation.
Here is my link that would be: a href= f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION::::P40_NAME:MARK:
{quote}
That looks to have the order of the parameters correct, but it's missing some syntax:<a href="f?p=107:40:&APP_SESSION.::::P40_NAME:MARK">...</a>

How can i change column header value dynamically in IR report

HI,
I have created report with the help of collections. Report query has been changing dynamically but i got problem with report header names and headers names has not been changing dynamically it is always showing like c001,c002....etc so, i have created global item(G_ITEM) in shared components--->Applications items after that
I have created process(before headers) and assigning some value to G_ITEM and used &G_ITEM to column headres in IR Report but here &G_ITEM is not showing any value.
How can i achieve dynamic headers names by using *&G_ITEM(global items)* Please guide me to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Oracle 11g Express Edition not working

Hi, I have installed Oracle 11g Express Edition correctly but when I try to log in :
http://127.0.0.1:8080/htmldb
I use SYSTEM and my password and it logs in but says: The requested URL /htmldb was not found on this server
If I try to acced to :
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
the problem is that I cannot login either with SYS, SYSTEM, sys or system.
Edit: I have windows 8.1

Try ...:8080/apex/f?p=4950 for the URL with the system credential, that is the apex admin URL, and SYSTEM credential should work for that one.
Most any other Apex URLs require an Apex login, which is not SYS, nor SYSTEM, those are database users, they aren't apex users.
And if you get a "page not found" or similar error, check output of:
lsnrctl status
For Apex to work, both the database and the listener must be running, and there also must be a "...presentation=HTTP... port=8080" line showing up in the ...status output, in Endpoints... section.
If that endpoint isn't there, apex won't work, something may not be quite correct with the network settings in listener.ora done by the installer.
