  • Forms 6 and Oracle Database 10g XE (Express Edition)

    I want to know that whether Form 6 can connect Oracle Database 10g XE (Express Edition).
    I have installed Oracle Database 10g XE on one PC . On another PC, I've installed D2k 6 (Form 6, Report 6, SQL plus 8, Net8 Client etc.).
    I am trying to connect Oracle Database 10g XE from SQL plus 8, through TNSNAMES.ORA, but I could not ?
    Can you help please ?

  • 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.

  • Export import - using TOAD FOR ORACLE  and ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS or s

    Hi all,
    Could you please kindly help me?
    I am using TOAD FOR ORACLE to export a table to flat file A. The tool just supports to distinguish fields by "spaces".
    And the web page of ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS to import the data from flat file A to another database. To load data to a table from a text file, the web page bases on "comma" to distinguish fields.
    So could you have any suggestion for me? I need to export data via TOAD FOR ORACLE. And then import it to another database by the home page of ORACLE DATABASE 10G EXPRESS or sqlplus.
    Thank you so much for your help!

    Dont use TOAD for exporting your data. Use PL/SQL. Below is the code given in Asktom.com that does what you want.

  • 32 Bit Installation or Oracle Linux and Oracle Database 10g

    I have an old E-Machine that I wanted to put Oracle Linux and Oracle Database Express 11G on. I was just wanting to do some testing and development on the system. I'm pretty sure the machine is 32bit.
    I just burned a copy of 32 bit Oracle Linux onto a CD. Is there a version of Oracle Database Express that will run on it?
    It seems like there is only a 64 bit version of Oracle Express Database 11g. Is Oracle Database Express 10g installable on Oracle Linux 32 bit?
    Let me know! Thanks in an advance.

    One (or two) caveats with the 10g version, XE can not be patched and the 10.2.0.1 XEs were created before the current daylight savings time rules went into effect.
    If you have access to My Oracle Support there is a method to get updated timezone files for the oracle binaries, you need at least version 4 of the DST files. I've got the MOS docIDs somewhere let us know if needed and I'll dig 'em up.

  • JDeveloper 9.0.3 and Oracle Database 10g

    I currently support a project using JDeveloper 9.0.3, and the client is mandating that we upgrade our database to 10g. Am I going to be required to upgrade to JDeveloper 10g, too? Or is JDeveloper 9.0.3 compatible with a 10g database?

  • AIX 6 and Oracle database 10g/11g

    Dear All,
    We are planning to upgrade our OS from AIX 5.3 to AIX 6.1 and infact have upgraded couple of servers to 6.
    In light of cost saving/cutting, how can AIX 6 help reduce licensing fee for Oracle databases. In other words, we would like to look into possibilities of reducing Oracle database (10g/11g) licensing fee by upgrading OS to AIX 6.
    Will the new feature like CPU virtualization be helpful in this regard? Are there any other features which could be worth looking into?
    I would be grateful if any of you could shed some light on this.

  • BI Beans and Oracle Database 10g

    I know that BI Beans 903 isn't certified for Oracle Database 10g but what about the version of BI Beans that is available as part of the IDS 10g Developer Preview?
    Will this version work (more reliable) with the Oracle Database 10g?.
    Regards,

    Unfortunately, you will run into similar issues so a patch is also necessary for Beans in IDS 10g to work against a 10g database.

  • Forms 6i and Oracle database 10g compatibility

    Hi all,
    We have application on Forms 6i (client/server) using ORACLE database 8i, looking for an upgrade of database to 10g version. Based on earlier threads on this topic Forms 6i is certified with patchset 17, i couldn't find this patchset on metalink.
    Can someone confirm when to expect patch 17, as i see the ECS will end by 01/Jan/2005.
    Thanks,
    Lokesh

    We completed certification for 10g with patch 16 so you can use P16

  • Install Oracle Application server 10g and Oracle database 10g on same box

    Hi Experts!
    i need to install Oracle database and oracle application server on the same machine(windows xp).
    when i install both of them and reboot the machine either oracle database or oracle application server fails...
    i suspect that the problem might be due to two - ORACLE_HOME
    let me know how i can resolve this issue.
    Note: Oracle DB and OAS OPMN process run as a windows service.
    after restart opmn fails
    Many thanks in advance
    -Raghav

    Jacco, in spite of your ace :-) this time I cannot
    completely agree with you:
    I hope sincerely that this ace thing doesn't "scare" anyone from challengeing me. I can't know everything, even though this ace sign suggests it.
    - things like ORACLE_HOME are also set in the system
    environment settings. This may lead to conflicts;It does, therefore you should set them with the service (I figured the installer of Oracle would actually do that for you, but I hardly ever work with Windows)
    - the database and AS have different versions of the
    RSFs. The most recent AS version is using 10.1.0.5
    RSFs, where the database uses 10.2.x. This leads to
    conflicts.
    - Port conflicts are common in the ONS area, however
    this should not prevent startup and should not be
    very likely at this point since all products use the
    same inventory and it should have been checked for
    ports that are in use.ons port conflics shouldn't precent startup, but other port conflicts can.
    >
    With the total of our posts the problem should be
    resolved anyway ;)Exactly, as long as the reader has the proper knowledge to understand them ;)

  • OWB 9.2.0.8 and Oracle Database 10g - Urgent

    hi
    I have OWB 9.2.0.8 software and my oracle database version is 10.2.0.2.0 hosted on sun solaris 5.9 version, can the OWB support this database, pls let me know your suggestions and where I can get a support document
    Kishan

    OWB 9.2 is not supported for Oracle 10gR2.
    The OWB 10.1.0.4 patchset was the first patchset certified against Oracle 10gR2 (please see OWB 10.1.0.4 release notes).
    You should use at OWB 10.1.0.4 (or higher) or OWB 10.2. Certification information for OWB 10.2 you can find in the Installation Guide (Understanding INstallation Requirements).

  • Config Suse 9 and Oracle Database 10g

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install Suse 9 with Oracle 10g on a HP DL380 server and I need some information (This will be an environment for Portal applications):
    1) Can SuSE SLES run ok with Processor Hyper Threading (PHT)?
    2) What kind of RAID is better for this kind of installation: 1 or 5?
    3) System comes with blocksize 512. Is this ok for oracle or we must change to 8.192?
    4) Is there any major issue I must know before starting?
    Thanks in advance.
    Clotilde

    Hyper Threading is supported in linux since version 2.4.??. Suse's SLES 9 comes with a far more actual kernel and therefore - yes, it will work on a PHT-system.
    RAID-Level 5 is good for the normal stuff: binaries, user files like documents, sheets, a.s.o. but lacks of performance for database operations. Better use RAID1 or RAID 10 and a lot of disks - minimum 5 separate disksets to avoid concurrent disk operations which slow down your database rapidly!
    Well, having the operating system and oracle core on a RAID5 (min. 3 disks) is a good start. On the HP (Compaq) DL380 you will run out of mounting options for your disks - you have only six bays for harddrives. This is IMHO not the best choice for a database maschine, as long as you don't use external storage arrays.
    The blocksize topic is far more complex to describe. For this and your fourth point, I advise you to read the oracle documentation as a first start. Needless to say that the ORACLE PRESS have some very good written books covering the whole area of database administration (DBA).
    best regards,

    Thank for the quick reply. I was just doing a basic test to determine if Map Viewer would satisfy our target architecture and rich web client functional requirements. Everything checks out except for my lack of understanding on how to determine the best performance settings. I expect the development environment to be slower than production. Our actual production environment is many load balanced map and database servers.

    plane at the current map request center.
    If allow_local_adjustment="false" (default), no adjustment is
    performed.
    - Automatically applies a globular map projection (geodetic data only):
    If use_globular_projection="true", MapViewer will
    apply a globular projection on the fly to geometries being displayed.
    If use_globular_projection="false" (the default), MapViewer does no map
    projection to geodetic geometries. This option has no effect on
    non-geodetic data.

  • Unable to work with ODAC, VS2008 and Oracle Database 10g XE

    I have downloaded and installed ODAC 11.1.0.6.21. I have followed the instructions in the 2 Day + .Net Developer's Guide (Chapter 3 - Building a Simple .NET Application Using ODP.NET) until I got to adding reference: when I added the Oracle.DataAccess 2.111.6.20, I observed that the new Refererence did not appear in Solution Explorer as described in the Guide.
    However I continued with the steps until I got to the testing phase, ran the form and entered Hr for User Id, Hr for Password and XE for data Source as I am running Oracle 10g XE. I got this error with every attempt: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
    From Server Explorer however, I can connect and see Schema Objects but when I right click Packages for eg, to create a procedure that uses a Ref Cursor I see only Refresh and Properties in the corresponding context menu, no New Package link!
    What could be the cause of all these?
    1. Is XE my correct Data Source?
    2. Why is the new Reference not visible in my solution explorer?
    3. Is my VS2008 or ODAC not configured/Installed Correctly?

    The tnsnames.ora file seem to be auto configured. However I tried updating it with Notepad when I changed my computer name to no avail. I had to revert back to my old computer name.
    This is the content of my tnsnames.ora:
    XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = obinna)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = PLSExtProc)
    (PRESENTATION = RO)
    ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =
    (DESCRIPTION =

    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = CLRExtProc)
    (PRESENTATION = RO)
    Please if there is any clause that need to be changed point it out for me.
    Thanks for your reply.
