Can Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Database 10g Express Edition co-exist ?

I just installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition. But I also want to access isql*plus for study purposes.
Can I download/install Oracle Database 10g without removing Oracle Database 10g Express Edition ?

I decided to download and install Oracle 10g myself and it was pretty quick to install. So I answered my own question : Oracle 10g Express is definitely able to co-exist with Oracle 10g no problem.
I want to post/share this answer for others who started with Oracle 10g express first - the journey I started.
The url isql*plus is displayed near the end of the installation together with the enterprise manager url. Pretty cool.
Now I can learn both Oracle 10g enterprise edition and Oracle 10g Express which is based on apex engine.

  • Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Client 9i together

    Hi, I've been lost some nights in this problem, in my job I will need migrate my Oracle Database 10g for a new computer, on the other hand, there is a software in this computer wrote in Visual Basic and this running only Oracle 9i Client.
    Is it possible configure my new server for run Oracle Database 10g and Oracle 9i Client together?
    Thanks!
    Emerson

    You can certainly use an Oracle 9i client to connect to an Oracle 10g database. Technically, you may have to apply the 9.2.0.4 patchset to the Oracle client to be completely supported, but that may not be strictly necessary.
    You can also have both a 10g database and a 9i client installed on the same machine in different Oracle Homes. You may have some issues on Windows, however, if you are using software that is not multi-home compliant (i.e. the Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle) or if you call Oracle command-line utilities (exp, imp, etc) without explicitly setting the PATH first.

  • Can we store forms and reports in 10g database in any format

    Can we store forms and reports in 10g database in any format

    Hi,
    Why do you want to store the forms and reports in database? Do you mean something like SCM repository for versioning?
    I don't find any use in storing the forms and reports in database.

  • Client for win 7 64 bit to access 10g and 8i database in Benthic Goldview

    Can someone provide a link to a client I can install in my windows 7 64 bit that will allow me to access a Oracle 10g and 8i database?  I'm using Benthic Goldview.
    Please provide some high level installation instructions also.

    Please keep in mind I'm a java developer, not a db guru...
    Scenario:  I'm using windows 7 pro, 64 bit, I vpn in to another network.  They have a box called 'thunder', that has a 8i db on it called arab805.  I have the username and password for it.
    What I did:  I tried using Squirrel to connect, keep getting an error saying it can't connect to it. 
    An actual error message would have been very useful. "an error saying it can't connect to it.'  is totally devoid of useful information.
    Somewhere I found some info that said I had to set up a DSN on my box first.  Tried that, wasn't able to make it work.
    What, exactly, did "Tried that" consist of?  To me, "setting up a DSN" would mean configuring a Data Source Name connection definition for ODBC.  That still requires installing and configuring the Oracle client software.
    Question:  Please provide me some detailed instructions on how to get this working.  Please don't provide me a link to something only a db guru would understand, I need some hand-holding help please.  If you could start with the high-level first, then work your way to more detailed, that would be great!
    example, something like this for a start - then give me more detail please:
    download oracle client
    set up dsn connection
    set up squirrel
    Ok,
    - Download Oracle client  (edelivery.oracle.com -- drill down from there to find the 11.2 client download.  Be sure to read all the 'read me' files and instructions on the web page itself.
    - Install the orcle client from the download.
    - Once installed, use the 'netca' utlility to configure the orcle client connection definition.
    - Make sure you can use the oracle client program 'sqlplus' to connect to the database.  Only after that is working will it make any sense to ..
    - Configure the ODBC DSN.
    Quite making excuses about 'not being a DBA guru'.  It's not necessary to be a DBA guru to to do this, and we understand that it is all new to you.  But it is the same basics you should know as a developer ... read instructions, research error messages, etc.

  • ORACLE 10g and ORACLE 9i on same machine

    Hi All,
    I want to install oracle 10g and oracle9i database on same windows machine.
    As far as i know i have install oracle10g and 9i on different oracle_home.
    Any thing is required.
    Regards,

    umair,
    Install 9i into an ORACLE_HOME.
    Install 10g into an other ORACLE_HOME.
    Nothing more is required, only the Oracle requirements for each version.
    Your attention when you will connect, set always the good ORACLE_HOME before connection.

  • Error oracle.sql.* and oracle.jdbc.driver.* not found when using oracle as a database

    I am using oracle as database and weblogic 4.5. I have copied the classes12.zip file in lib directory of weblogic. I am getting the error that oracle.sql.* and oracle.jdbc.driver.* not found when i am importing these packages in a jsp file. what i need to do to import oracle driver packages?I put it in the classpath also.
    Please Advice!
    Thanks in advance
    AnuPama

    Hi Anupama,
    First of all I would be surprised if you would not like to use the connection pooling feature of weblogic (in which case you might not be needing the import the classes directly), and would like to open direct connections to your database. Anyways for doing that I would recommend you to check out the readme doc that ships
    along with the jdbc oracle (classes12.zip etc). I am giving an excerpt over here:
    These are a few simple things that you should do in your JDBC program:
    1. Import the necessary JDBC classes in your programs that use JDBC.
    For example:
    import java.sql.*;
    import java.math.*;
    2. Register the Oracle driver before before calling other JDBC APIs.
    (This is not needed if you are using the JDBC Server-side Internal
    Driver because registration is done automatically in the server.)
    To register the Oracle driver, make sure the following statement
    is executed at least once in your Java session:
    DriverManager.registerDriver(
    new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
    3. Open a connection to the database with the getConnection call.
    Different connection URLs should be used for different JDBC
    drivers. The following examples demonstrate the different URLs.
    For the JDBC OCI8 Driver:
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
    "jdbc:oracle:oci8:@<database>",
    "scott", "tiger");
    where <database> is either an entry in tnsnames.ora or a SQL*net
    name-value pair.
    For the JDBC Thin Driver, or Server-side Thin Driver:
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
    "jdbc:oracle:thin:@<database>",
    "scott", "tiger");
    where <database> is either a string of the form
    <host>:<port>:<sid> or a SQL*net name-value pair.
    For the JDBC Server-side Internal Driver:
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
    "jdbc:oracle:kprb:");
    Note that the trailing ':' character is necessary. When you use
    the Server-side Internal Driver, you always connect to the
    database you are executing in. You can also do this:
    Connection conn
    = new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver().defaultConnection();
    Hope this helps,
    Thanks,

  • Will Oracle 10g and Oracle XE happily co-exist on same machine?

    I can't seem to find anything specifically saying that Oracle 10g and Oracle XE can be installed on the same Windows machine. The only reason I'd want to do this is that I originally had the free version on my Windows machine. The uninstaller nevers seems to run a complete job and always leaves bits over. So I'd like to install Oracle 10g alongside Oracle XE.
    Wondered if anybody had done this already?

    to uninstall Oracle, do the following:
    1. Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
    2. Run regedit.exe and delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key. This contains registry entires for all Oracle products.
    Delete any references to Oracle services left behind in the following part of the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/Ora*
    It should be pretty obvious which ones relate to Oracle.
    4. Reboot your machine.
    5. Delete the "C:\Oracle" directory, or whatever directory is your ORACLE_BASE.
    6. Delete the "C:\Program Files\Oracle" directory.
    7. Empty the contents of your "c:\temp" directory.
    8. Empty your recycle bin.
    At this point your machine will be as clean of Oracle components as it can be.
    Remember, manually editing your registry can be very destructive and force an OS reinstall so only do it as a last resort.

  • Run Oracle Web Logic and Oracle Application Server 10g on same server

    Since oracle has chosen to release adf faces 11g, before the SOA suite 11g is released, we are facing the challenge to run both Oracle Web logic and Oracle Application Server 10g on the same server.

    What version of Oracle Application Server 10g are you installing?

  • DbLink between 10g and 8i databases

    Hi all
    I have a little problem. I have two different databases in two different versions 10.6 and 8.1.7. Some forms (developer 6.i) use the dblink and i get a crash to desktop when i try to compile. Developer exit with abnormal termination.It is due to tables with the dblink aren´t recognized because if i comment the select where these tables are used the programm compiles perfectly.
    But when I go to SQL plus,for instance, and use a DESC, the tables are recognize in this case. All the synonym are created correctly.
    Any help? Maybe it's due to the different database versions?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Maybe you should post this problem in a Forms Forum too.

  • Logical Database design and physical database implementation

    Hi
    I am an ORACLE DBA basically and we started a proactive server dashboard portal ,which basically reports all aspects of our infrastructure (Dev,QA and Prod,performance,capacity,number of servers,No of CPU,decomissioned date,OS level,Database patch level) etc..
    This has to be done entirely by our DBA team as this is not externally funded project.Now i was asked to do " Logical Database design and physical Database
    implementation"
    Even though i know roughly what's that mean(like designing whole set of tables in star schema format) ,i have never done this before.
    In my mind i have a rough set of tables that can be used but again i think there is lot of engineering involved in this area to make sure that we do it properly.
    I am wondering you guys might be having some recommendations for me in the sense where to start?are there any documents online , are there any book on this topic?Are there any documents which explain this phenomena with examples ?
    Also exactly what is the difference between logical database design vs physical database implementation
    Thanks and Regards

    Logical database design is the process of taking a business or conceptual data model (often described in the form of an Entity-Relationship Diagram) and transforming that into a logical representation of that model using the specific semantics of the database management system. In the case of an RDBMS such as Oracle, this representation would be in the form of definitions of relational tables, primary, unique and foreign key constraints and the appropriate column data types supported by the RDBMS.
    Physical database implementation is the process of taking the logical database design and translating that into the actual DDL statements supported by the target RDBMS that will create the database objects in a target RDBMS database. This will generally include specific physical implementation details such as the specification of tablespaces, use of specialised indexing (bitmap, clustered etc), partitioning, compression and anything else that relates to how data will actually be physically stored inside the database.
    It sounds like you already have a physical implementation? If so, you can reverse engineer this implementation into a design tool such as SQL Developer Data Modeller. This will create a logical design by examining the contents of the Oracle data dictionary. Even if you don't have an existing database, Data Modeller is a good tool to use as a starting point for logical and even conceptual/business models.
    If you want to read anything about logical design, "An Introduction to Database Systems" by Date is always a good starting point. "Database Systems - A Practical Approach to Design, Implementation and Management" by Connolly & Begg is also an excellent reference.

  • Diff Between Oracle BPM Studio and Oracle BPEL Process Manager

    1)What is the difference between Oracle BPM Studio and Oracle BPEL Process Manager?
    2)What is the connection between Oracle BPM Studio and Oracle BPEL Process Manager?

    Hi,
    As of today you should install SOA Suite 11g
    Fr this you will need to install Database (for development you can use XE)
    Run RCU utility to crete DB schemas for SOA Suite.
    Install Weblogic server
    Install SOA Suite as an option to Weblogic
    Create SOA Domain.
    It is physically possible to do it in 2GB but is far better on 3 - 4GB
    You can consider installing DB on different machine.

  • Date Formats in Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service

    Can someone tell me what determines the Date format that appears on Oracle Applications Forms and Oracle Self Service ?
    *1.* In Oracle HRMS,all dates i see on the Forms are of the Format "MM/DD/YYYY" but my NLS Parameters are not in this format .I'm giving the results for the NLS parameters below.I thought the date formats are determined by the NLS format.Is there something else that determines the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms ?
    NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :AMERICAN
    NLS_TERRITORY     :AMERICA
    NLS_INSTANCE_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
    NLS_TERRITORY     :america
    NLS_SESSION_PARAMETERS
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT     :DD-MON-RR
    NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE     :
    NLS_LANGUAGE     :american
    NLS_TERRITORY     :america
    *2* What about the profile option : ICX_DATE_FORMAT_MASK ? Does it determine the Date Format for Self Service alone or does it impact the date format appearing on Oracle Applications Forms and the actual database also ?
    *3* If I use a to_date function in ,say, a pl/sql function that i code for some custom requirements,what will be the output of the date format ? Does it take the format given in NLS paramaters or is it determined by anything else?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply ,but I'm still confused ..
    Here are the profile options I'm seeing for one of my instance :
    ICX: Date format mask - 12/31/1999
    ICX: Date language - American English
    ICX: Language - American English
    ICX: NLS Sort - BINARY
    ICX: Territory - United States
    ICX: Numeric characters - NULL
    NLS parameters are given in my original email.
    In Self Service applications(OAF) ,the date format is appearing in "mm/dd/yyyy" format but when i login to Forms based applications ,I see the date format as "dd-mon-yyyy".What determines this date format ?
    How can i make the date format to always return one format everywhere ,be it Self Service (OAF) or Oracle Forms ?
    I'm getting date format related errors for my code because of default date formats changing intermittently when i log into Self Service.I want to know if there is anyway to prevent this from happening?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Connection between  oracle 9i server and oracle 9i client

    hi there,
    i have installed both oracle 9i server and oracle 9i client in my system.how can i connect these two to have connection between these server and client?
    Because i was using only 9i server for creating database and for other purposes.i have not used 9i client yet.
    Please write me the answer.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Balu,
    If you have the Oracle 9i Client, you can just edit your TNSNAMES.ora file of your client to have a TNS Entry for your new Database & try connecting it. You just need to try TNSPING & ensure that you can reach the Listener.
    Are you facing any specific problems ?

  • About Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway

    Hi All,
    I am very new at this topic, I want to know:
    1)Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway same or not?Need license or not?
    2)If want Creating Database Link from Oracle 11g to Sybase AS 15.5 Using Oracle Heterogeneous Services what drivers should I install from my pc(windows 7) and from my server(Linux red hat 5)?please give me link for this
    3)Is there any link Step by step to configure odbc until creating dblink?
    4)what more convenient, connect sybase from Oracle Heterogeneous Services or Oracle Gateway?
    Thank you so much for your help
    Regards
    JOE

    Joe,
    let copy/paste your questions and comment inline:
    1)Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway same or not?Need license or not?
    Let me first clarify one thing, heterogeneous services is the generic mechanism in the Oracle database used by all gateways. The product you are talking about is the Database Gateway for ODBC or the Database Gateway for Sybase.
    The Database Gateway for ODBC is available for Linux and Windows. It is the free product which does not require an Oracle license. The license is included in your database license. It is a generic gateway which allows you to connect with any suitable 3rd party ODBC driver to a matching foreign database. As it is a generic connectivity which aloows you to connect to real databases but also to MS Excel or even Text files as long as you have a suitable ODBC driver, its capability is very limited.
    The more powerful gateway is the Database Gateway for Sybase. It covers the same functionality as DG4ODBC but it allows you also to work with distributed transactions, it allows you to call remote Sybase stored procedures etc. This gateway is design for Sybase ASE connections, so it is also able to map certain Oracle functions to Sybase equivalents. This Database Gateway for Sybase is NOT for free, it requires an additional license.
    2)If want Creating Database Link from Oracle 11g to Sybase AS 15.5 Using Oracle Heterogeneous Services what drivers should I install from my pc(windows 7) and from my server(Linux red hat 5)?please give me link for this
    That depends on your preferences. Both gateways are available for Linux and for Windows. When using DG4ODBC you only need to pay attention that you get a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver for this platform with the matching word size (64bit for 64bit DG4ODBC and 32bit ODBC driver for installations of DG4ODBC on 32bit platforms).
    The latest software release is currently 11.2.0.3 and it can be downloaded (and installed from scratch) from "My Oracle Support". Just open the Patches & Updates section, look for Patch 10404530: 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER and make sure to choose the platform you want to use. Then check out the readme as it lists which of these download CD's contains the gateway software.
    BTW, the CD contains DG4ODBC and DG4SYBS and it is up to you to decide during the installation which product you want to use.
    3)Is there any link Step by step to configure odbc until creating dblink?
    The ODBC driver installation differs from vendor to vendor and platform to platform - so we don't have a specific note how to configure the ODBC driver. This kind of question is better handled by the ODBC driver vendor.
    Regarding the set up of DG4ODBC on Windows you find suitable information in the knowledge base on My Oracle Support. Just look for:
    How to Configure DG4ODBC (Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC) on Windows 32bit to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install          [Document 466225.1]     
    and for DG4SYBS:
    How to Configure DG4SYBS (Oracle Database Gateway for Sybase) on 64bit Unix (Linux, AIX, HP-UX Itanium and Solaris) Post Install          [Document 437696.1]     
    How to Setup DG4SYBS (Database Gateway for Sybase) on a 64bit Windows          [Document 1319852.1]     
    4)what more convenient, connect sybase from Oracle Heterogeneous Services or Oracle Gateway?
    It really depends on your needs. DG4SYBS is surly easier to install as this gateway comes with everything you need and you do not have to find a suitable ODBC driver nor get the ODBC driver working. It is also more powerful as you can for example use triggers that replicate data changes in an Oracle database to the Sybase database within the same transaction. When you want to call Sybase stored procedures you can also do that with DG4SYBS. So it really depends on your needs.
