Backing up all data and objects of Oracle 10g Express Edition...

Hi,
I have tables, packages, views, procedures, etc. in Oracle 10g Express Edition, running on Windows XP. I would like to create a backup of the complete database (objects, relationships, all data, etc) into a file that I can restore in case the database crashes.
What do I do?
Thanks.

I am actually using it for Production. Yes, I would need objects and data.I would suggest to look at the Standard Edition as well if you are using it for production.
Is there a way to backup everything without data and then backup everything with data? Also, is there a way to restore everything without data and then restore everything with data?What's the meaning of "backup everything withiut data" and "then backup everything with data" ? The data is in the tables alone. The rest of the objects are not containing data but are using it, be it views, procedures etc. There is no such restore like without data. Without data, all what you would be getting would be structures of the tables which is going to be of no use. The export/import tool, is a simple tool which can put the tables (and other objects as well) along with their data in your dumpfile . In the situation of loss of a table, you can do an import from that dump file and you can restore the table back(with or without data, depends on the choice of yours while running Import command) . But this is just going to be a logical recovery of the object(s). For a complete database, it's better to use RMAN which would copy the datafiles and keep it with itself. Later, when you have a crash, you can restore those files to get teh database recovered. But if you want complete security, its better to put your db in the archive log and then do the backup along with the archive log files.

How to do this exactly? Thanks!

Connecting oracle 10g express edition to jdeveloper

I am having all kinds of problems connecting oracle 10g express edition with my jdeveloper 10.1.3.3. I can query the database from my command line so I know it is set up, but for whatever reason jdeveloper will not connect with it. When I try to connect with the database through jdeveloper here is the error I keep getting:
Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
The Connection descriptor used by the client was:

I have been all through the google results looking for an answer and have come to the conclusion that it is something with either the listerner file or the tns file, but as of yet have been unable to locate them. here are both of those files too.

Please any help would be appreciated I have been at this for days, thanks.

This has to be some kind of bug with 10g express because I see lots of people having similar problems. I'm in the process of uninstalling 10g, and I will re-install it see if that makes a difference. Again if anyone has any other ideas please keep them coming because this is utter BS it shouldn't be this hard.

How to plugin oracle 10g express edition in Eclipse Java EE

Hi guys,
I have downloaded Eclipse Java EE and also downloaded Oracle 10g express edition. Please some one guide me how do I plugin the database in Eclipse and use DTP in Eclipse. I am new to Oracle and Java, Please help me.
Thanks

Hi,
I have installed OEPE through Eclipse Update Manager for Eclipse Galileo 3.5. I have already installed oracle10g express edition and Appache tomcat 6.0 for web development.
Now I have unlocked the hr user and following instruction from white paper to use OEPE
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/cioroianu-eclipse-jpa.html
Now you can configure the database connection in Eclipse. Click Window > Show View > Other..., select Data Management > Data Source Explorer, and click OK. Right click Database Connections, click New, select Oracle Database Connection, enter the hr name for the connection, and click Next.
Select Oracle Database 10g Driver Default, change the server name in the jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe URL if necessary, enter the hr user name and its password, click Test Connection to verify that everything is correct, and click Finish
But here when I tried to connect to the database, it give me error - Creating connection to New oracle database connection has encountered a problem
Couldn't connect to New Oracle Database Connection.

I know i am wrong some where, Please tell me where I am going wrong? Do I need to download and configure weblogic 10g first? Is this don't work with Apache tomcat server instead?
Thanks

MSAccess 2003-plugin-Oracle 10g Express Edition

Hello!
Say, I've read a few posts on people who seem to have this similar problem about the MSAccess plugin. However, I have this situation and I'm still getting the 'Plugin not being found' error message...
I have Windows XP Pro SP2 and MSAccess 2003 and using the Oracle 10g Express Edition.
I have downloaded and unzipped the 'omwb.zip' file into: C:\omwb1010 - directory. After this unzip, I have downloaded the MSAccess.zip file into the C:\omwb1010\omwb\plugins - directory, 'saving' it as MSAccess.jar. I then go to the 'bin' directory and run the omwb.bat file. I enter the appropriate information for the 'Oracle Database Repository'. I use 'SYSTEM' for the 'Username' (is this correct or do I use something like the 'HR' that is already created?). When I click 'OK', the 'Plugin' error message pops up!
Where am I going wrong??
Thanks in advance...!!
Dan...

Hello!
In thinking about my problem here... Since I have WIN XP Pro SP2 installed, I don't need to install the MDAC file. But, is the OMWB bat file checking the 'drivers' folder under the omwb\ directory for the driver and Not where the WIN XP Pro SP2 put it...? This 'stuff' is new to me and so IF this is the case, I assume I would need to copy this driver from its current location and paste it to this 'drivers' folder. So, where would I go look for this 'driver' to copy??
Thanks in advance...!!

Installing and Running Oracle 10g Express Edition on Microsoft Vista

My computer is running on Microsoft Vista.
I downloaded Oracle 10g Express Edition for Vista.
I ran the setup.exe. Everything went well there.
But, when I open the SQLPlus program, a window prompts me to enter my username, password and host string.
Can someone please tell me what it is expecting for these fields? I am using the same username and password I used to create my Oracle account.
But what is the host string?
Appreciate it.
Thanks.

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.

Oracle 10g Express Edition and Forms 6i

Hi,
Need to know if Oracle 10g express edition supports forms 6i or not?
Please advise.
Thanks you very much.

Thanks for the answers.
Yes, XE universal does not work, but XE Western European does. I am having a hard time to configure Net8. The net configuration tools simply crash right away every time I try to run them. The sql*plus on form side crashes when I hit the connect button. The only thing that can run with no problem is form. I had to manually edit the tnsnames.ora file on form side, setting host=computer name and sid=XE. Tried many times until it worked.

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?

Java Connection Pooling issue with Oracle 10g Express Edition

Hello
I have a Java based web application that uses the Oracle 10g Express Edition database. I am using a connection pool to get connections to the database.
I use the NetBeans IDE and run my web application on the bundled Tomcat server(5.5.7) that comes with the IDE. Though when I initially run the application from the IDE, the connection pool is set up fine, when I recompile my java code and try to run the application again, I get the following error each time:
Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12516, TNS:listener could not find available handler with the
matching protocol stack.
The logs before the error shows up, indicate that the connection pool object is fine and gives me the number of available connections and the number of active connections and so on, which I have printed from the constructor of the Connection Pool class:
For e.g.:
Cache size = 17
Available Connections = 17
Cache Limit = 1000
Active size = 0
However, if I kill my Tomcat server process and run the application again, it works fine with no error.
I looked around for possible causes and solutions and all I could find
was increasing the processes parameter value in the init.ora file. I have increased the parameter value to from 100 to 20000 now, in increments of 500/1000 each time but it hasnt worked so far.
Someone else suggested that I increase the size of my connection pool; I initially had it set to a minimum limit of 5, an initial limit of 10 and a maximum limit of 1000. However if I set the Initial Limit to anything above 17 connections, I see the following log on the Bundled Tomcat log and my application doesn't run at all:
Log: Loading JDBC Driver : class=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver ...
Log: Loaded JDBC Driver
Log: Connection with URL=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe as username/password
Error code not handled : 0
Exception Message :java.sql.SQLException: Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12519, TNS: no appropriate service handler found
The Connection descriptor used by the client was:
localhost:1521:xe
// End of log
And the Bundled Tomcat server automatically shuts down.
Again the System.out statements from the Connection Pool class constructor show that the cache has been initialized and that currently there are free connections available in the pool.
E.g.
Cache size = 18
Available Connections = 18
Cache Limit = 1000
Active size = 0
Has anyone faced anything similar? Could someone please suggest what I'm doing wrong here and what I should do to set right this problem?
Swetha

hello, please pardon me, my english is basic. i do of my best. i had the same problem until reading the pdf documentation 2 days for java devvelloper.it is simple, follow this way.
try {OracleDataSource ds;
Connection conn;
ds = new OracleDataSource();
ds.setURL("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost");
conn = ds.getConnection("userid","password");
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
don't forget to Dowload the user client of oracle Express Edition. do the rest of your program and it will work. take a look to the documentation pdf for java develloper. all it is explained. good look

Pro*Cobol for Oracle 10g Express Edition is available?

Hi to all, this is my first post here.
I evaluating Cobol to Oracle products and I have find one it´s more
We installed Oracle 10g Express Edition (Server and Client), to test compatibility of a Cobol product.
This product requires the "rtsora" component, from Pro*Cobol, but we didn´t find it in any place in the instalation packages.
The documentation show the precompilers to be at $ORACLE_HOME/precomp but there is only two folders (admin and lib) with "ottcfg" files. Nothing more
Searching this and anothers foruns, I became to think if the precompilers facilities, like Pro*Cobol, may be available to the 10g Express Edition for Linux, OR, if this is a feature available only to the Standart Editions (or Windows)?
The instalation and users manuals appears to don´t distinguish the 10g standart from the Express Edition. Also, the Express Edition doesn´t ask for any kind of "customization oprtions" as I read about in another topics.
Edited:
1 - We are using this on Linux Ubuntu.
2 - The Windows 10g Express Edition appears to be more complete, but I need to run this on Express Edition.
Thanks in advance!
(sorry bad english)

There is no official communication on 11G express edition release date .
You will have to wait and watch Oracle Official website for that .

Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition

Hi Friends,
I have worked on Oracle 9i but now I would like to work on Oracle 10g but confuse because there are more option for download.Which one should I go for?
Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition ?
Or Any other option.
Any Suggestion are welcome.
KarTiK.

It all depends on what exactly you are planning to use oracle for. Depending on the version, there may be found or not some features, you can see it this way:
EE > SE > XE
EE is a superset of SE and SE is a superset of XE. So you will find several limitation on the XE edition.
However, even though XE is a very limited version, it cannot be underestimated, it can be used for Spatial Data projects, it works with spatial data locator, and there are several guides that show how to use it with PHP so you can start a web site. WebPLSQL is included with it, so the only limit is your creativity.
This version can be very useful, and you can make the most of it, you may be interested in reading this article Oracle Database 10g Express Edition: Not Just for Learners
by Lewis Cunningham.
The XE edition is free. So you can use it without license fees and is the best suitable tool for learning, it is easy to install and setup. You can have a fully functional XE database out of the box. Once you feel more comfortable with oracle technology you can start thinking about taking the next step to a SE or EE edition.
