Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud

Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud
VMware are saying you need licence for using oracle in cloud
but they are showing pricing for Enterprise edition
and i am clueless

I've moved your question over to the Cloud Computing > Oracle Database Cloud Service space it I think it's likely the best place for it. Certainly the community feedback and suggestions forum (not for product related questions) was NOT the correct place, as that forum is NOT for product related questions, as it states in it's forum space title.

Can I use Oracle Express Edition for Educational purposes?

Dears,
I have an Information Technology school and I'm wondering if I can use Oracle Express Edition for Educational purposes. Do I need any special licenses for this?
I noticed the following statement on Oracle 11g Express download (Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2) but would like to confirm if I have any restrictions about that.

Can I install Oracle VM server on VMware Workstation 7 with linux?

I have installed VMware Workstation 7 on my laptop that already has windows 7 operating system.
Next I installed Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 on my VMware Workstation 7.
Now am planing to setup a RAC environment.
What should be my next step? The documentation says I need to install VMware server.
Are VMware server and Oracle VM server the same?
can we replace one with other.
I am a newbie.. Please spare my questions.

Can I install Oracle Database Express Edition(XE) on Windows 8 (64 bit)

Hi All,
I would like to know whether I can install Oracle Express Edition 11g Release 2 on Windows 8 - 64 bit . Please let me know this is for learning purpose only.

Currently, no Oracle software is certified to be installed on Windows 8. Certified OS versions for 11g XE are documented - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/index.htm
Installing on an unsupported OS may or may not succeed - if the instal succeeds, it is not a indication that the software will work as advertised - any issues you will have to troubleshoot on your own

Can anyone help?

ORACLE EXPRESS EDITION ON WINDOWS VISTA NOT WORKING

http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
AND IN INTERNET EXPLORER I GET THE FOLLOWING ERROR
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems
ALSO I WAS READING THE
"APEX" INSTALLATION HELP AT THE FOLLOWING URL
http://www.apex-blog.com/oracle-apex/installing-apex-tutorial-23.html
I AM NOT SURE IT WILL HELP ME OR NOT.I JUST NEED THE ORACLE DB WORKING AT MY SYSTEM SO THAT I CAN HAVE A LITTLE DATABASE WORKING LOCALLY.
SO ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WILL BE APPRECIATED.THANKS

To check if u installed correctly, in cmd prompt type tnsping xe. If installed correctly it shud say OK(30) else it will show an error. Now if it says OK, in cmd prompt type sqlplus and connect using system/pwd_u_provided_durin_installation, it shud connect.
Some steps to follow before installing XE
Before Installing Oracle,make sure to disable all the network adapters and ping in cmd prompt localhost and ur machine name, both shud refer to 127.0.0.1. Once oracle is installed,try to connect in ur web explorer and once connected,enable the network adapters. There shudnt be any firewall prob.,if it does add port 8080 as an exception to ur firewall list.

Pro/C missing in Oracle Express Edition 10g2 for Linux ?

Hi all.
After installing Oracle Express Edition 10g2 i miss the Pro/C component, no proc-executable can be found in the software tree.
Then i additionally installed the adjacent client without getting the necessary executable.
Thank you in advance

Its not in there ... try an 11g instant client, the SDK version should have what you're after (x86 version) at:

(x86-64) at:

Note also that the license agreement is a bit different ...

Oracle express edition and JDBC licensing question

Hi all,
I am writing a web application that requires a database to work. I also will be selling this application. which leads me to these questions:
1) legally can i use the oracle express edition?
2) legally can i use the oracle JDBC driver?
Thanks,

Based on the discussions in the XE forum (confirmed by Oracle representatives in official capacity) as well as the license agreement (which you should take to your lawyer tp etermine how to set up the paperwork for your application):
You can include the Oracle Express Edition in your application. You can charge for your application and give no money back to Oracle for the use of Oracle Express Edition. You can distribute the client-side JDBC that is included in XE as well.
But - you can not hold Oracle responsible for the operation of the database, nor ask them for support or patches.
As Eric says - join us over in the XE forum for more discussion of this.

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

You didn't specify which Oracle10 Edition.
In the case of SE/SE one/EE, with a paid license Supported has a mean impact on production environments with paid licenses, since you wouldn't run on an unsupported platform facing the risk of being left without technical support from Oracle in case of an emerging issue.
For the XE Edition, this is not a certified combination, since the only certified editions are the Business, Enterprise, and the Ultimate editions, but you can try it, you don't have nothing to loose, supported, certified vs. unsupported in this case makes no difference since this XE is not supported either way (no patchsets, no bug fixes, no technical support from metalink), just an AS IS free software.
On the license agreement terms displayed when you download the XE software it states:
"No Technical Support
Our technical support organization will not provide technical support, phone support, or updates to you for the programs licensed under this agreement."
and
"THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE."
In case someone would be able to win a trial against oracle due to damage from the use of this software, the amount paid at maximum is 1,000.00 USD, not enough to even pay the lawyer's lunches.
For the XE users the primary source of 'kind of support' is the oracle forums, either the installation forum, the general database or the specialized XE forum.
Of course if this is for your own personal use for learning and testing and there are no third parties you could damage by doing this and if you don't have a paid license for this installation you may try it, but don't expect the Enterprise Manager to behave as defined by the manual, most of it won't work since the Home Edition doesn't have the privileges required for EM to work.
If this is your personal computer and when you bought it the computer provider installed from factory Home Edition, and if you want something to work there, you can try to install a Virtual Machine and install Oracle 10g on a supported guest OS.

How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.

Hi
During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

How to install Oracle Spacial with Oracle Express Edition 10g?

Hello,
I'm new in Oracle Technology, I just wanted to try Oracle Spatial.
I don't know how to get it so I've installed Oracle Express and followed this tutorial :
http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2009/06/manual-installation-of-spatial-10g.html
They say Jserver, Oracle interMedia and Oracle XML Database have to be installed, but only one of them seems to be set up (XML DB), I can't install the others.
If someone can help me to install Oracle Spatial, it would be nice. Bye.

If you want to use Oracle Express Edition, note that the 11.2 version is available on beta now:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html
Its a while since I've used XE but from what I recall you get the Locator functionality, but not Spatial. That makes sense as XE is free, which Spatial needs to be licensed.
However, you can do an awful lot with Locator. To see if it is setup, just check if you have the MDSYS schema. Then describe the SDO_GEOMETRY type:
describe mdsys.sdo_geometry
If they are both there, then you're in business.

Can Oracle Express Edition be used for Internet Web Projects?

Hi,
If we have a simple WWW application accessible from internet via WEB server and Web server uses Oracle Express Edition as a "data storage", can Oracle XE be used without violating license (XE limitations)?
Thank you!

Don't see why not, although a quote from the Oracle Technology Network Developer License Terms for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition page at the License Rights section, "developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operation..." so that might be leaning into a bit of a grey area. A bit.
But with something available on the web you'll want to be sure to stay up to date with security patches- and unfortunately XE can not be patched. Just because something can be done, and even works for its intended purpose, doesn't necessarily mean that it is a "good thing to do".
Nothing wrong with trying something out for learning and figuring out how things work- apex is a nifty development platform, although I've not kept up with the details of the last couple of versions. Too many other things on the "got to learn this, got to do that" list(s).

Connect Toad freeware with Oracle express Edition, How?

Hello,
Although I know that people will raise the question this is Oracle and use SQL developer... Ok I do that and that is working fine. But on my work they work with TOAD so I like to work with TOAD as well and I want get some knowledge about Toad, TNSNAMES etc.
I've put the issue on TOAD forum as well, but till now I don't have received an answer.
I want to teach/learn myself Oracle by working with the Oracle express edition. I have downloaded the SQL Developer and I can work with it, which means I can create a connection.
Errors when I try to work with TOAD are:
If i try to make a connection:
- "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"
If I click on TNSNames editor:
- Access violation in address xxxxxxx at module TOAD.exe"
I have installed oracle at D:\ORACLE_HOME. In this directory is also a TNSNAMES.ORA file.
I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
I'm working on my local machine with:
- windows 7 Home
- Oracle 32 bit client:
- Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- "CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production"
- TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- TOAD 64-bit freeware.
*Questions:*
*- Are there certain environment variables necessary? Does TOAD expect Oracle at a certain directory?*
*- Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?*
*- 32-bit Oracle client will working with the 64-bit TOAD freeware?*

If i try to make a connection:

I'm working on my local machine with:

All these should be directed elsewhere, e.g. at some Toad forum, maybe at toadworld.com.

Oracle Express Edition And Windows Encrypted File System (EFS)

Hello,
I want to use oracle express edition with windows encrypted file system. I tried some possibilities like encrypting xe folder. But connection can not be established when efs is used. Is there a compatibility problem between oracle xe and windows efs? On Oracle's page, it is declared that oracle database is compatible with Windows EFS.
Thank you for help.

Pl identify which version of Win 7 - 32-bit or 64-bit ? Home version or something else ?
The 11g XE install is only available for 32-bit version of Win 7 Professional or higher - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH. If you are installing on 64-bit version or Home version of Windows, then you are on your own. What is the reason for enabling EFS on this database ?

Can I disable 10g Express Edition from starting at Windows XP boot time?

I am a student who installed 10g Express Edition on my laptop for my classes.
That is really working out great. Wonderful product.
However, I only use it a couple of times a week.
Is there a way that I can disable the automatic start up of 10g XE when I boot up my
Windows XP system? So that I am in a position to go to 'Start Database' when I want
to use the product and start it up manually? That would be great.
My laptop is maxed out at 2GB of RAM and I am trying to hold off buying a new
pc for a while.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for all the help!
I used the Windows GUI for Component Services.
I found OracleServiceXE there set to Automatic.
I changed it to Manual.
Restarted my system.
Checked the running Processes - didn't find any Oracle named ones.
Did a Start Database. It started right up.
Then I checked my Processes and found an oracle.exe running.
So that all looks great.
I did find a couple of other services that I didn't change.
Those are:
OracleJobSchedulerXE (it was set to Disabled)
OracleMTSRecoveryService (it was set to Manual)
OracleXEClrAgent (it was set to Manual)
OracleXETNSListener (it was set to Automatic)
That was the way those were set before I made my change.
And they are still set that way.
Let me know if I need to do anything with them.
Thanks!
