Database and developer installation

good time for everyone,
i installed my mechine oracle 8i enterprise and i want to use locally, i installed developer 6i . when i want to log in database througth developer i am getting this error ora-12154, could this problem has solution.
thank you your help in advance,

Hi,
You should have installed DB and Developer in different Oracle Homes.
The error should mean that you did not configure properly the DB alias in the Developer Oracle Home.
If you can connect without problems in SqlPlus from the DB Oracle Home, copy the SQLNET.ORA and TNSNAMES.ORA files located in the DB ORACLE_HOME\network\admin to the Developer ORACLE_HOME\network\admin.
Good luck....

Oracle 9i Database and Developer Installation

I am a student going through the Oracle Developer Certification and I am hoping someone can help me with some troubleshooting. This has to do with installing 2 different services on 2 home directories. I installed the Oracle 9i database enterprise edition on the c drive on my laptop. Today I installed the Developer software as well on the c drive on a different directory. I now have the problem that I cannot connect to SQLPlus on the database side and I can not access datatbase connection on the Developer/Form side either. When I installed the developer software I created a new directory called OracNT since it would not allow me to install it on the orahome90 directory (database was installed here)....Does anyone have any advice on what to do? I have install and unistalled both the database and the Developer software and I am getting the same issue...All help would be appreciated.
lari

Lari,
Not quite the right forum for this, but I suspect your tnsnames.ora file in both the
network directories under the two ORACLE_HOMEs does not have an entry
for the local database.
On trying to connect you should get an error message and number. Use these
and search within metalink, there are a number of good articles on network
configuration.
There are also network configuration assistants available from the database windows program
menu.

Production and Development Database Connections

Within JDeveloper I have created a database connection to a DEVELOPMENT database and am exposing PL/SQL packages in the development database as web services.
I can develop and test successfully the exposed packages as web services, and can deploy and run them to a standalone OC4J container on my local machine.
I then handover the generated EAR file to the production team who deploy the EAR as a web service to the Oc4j container in a remote 9i Application Server.
This runs successfully from 9iAS.
So far so good.
If I have the same PL/SQL package in a live database and development database, but only have access to the development database, how can I expose the package in the live database?
Can I have a database connection in JDeveloper with a connection name pointing to the development database connection, and have a connection defined in 9iAS with the same name pointing to the live database?
Any information will be useful.
Thanks,
Claire.

Per the J2EE "roles" definition this is a deployment role todo.
I.E. the theory is; take a 3rd party ear, depoyee with your appserver vendor's
deployment tool, edit the data-sources.xml imbeded in the ear on the fly, as
deployment happens.
Bake to reality-
OC4J 903 is intended to be used with OEM for the J2EE spec'ed role of deployer. I'm
headed this way, but not started the 903/OEM todo.
Today, OC4J 902 and 902 Jdev, I deploy to a local instance of OC4J. I take that
ear to production. I've written procedural instructions on poping open the ear and
editing the data-sources.xml for the DB connection URL and possible login/passwords.
BTW all your AppModule configurations will have to use data-sources DB connections else
you'll have DB connection info littered in your bc4j.xcfg's for each AM deeper in your war's.
I'd like to hear how this is supposed to work from some other folks? :)
Good luck,

Ask for a way to learn Oracle and Developer 2000. HELP PLEASE!!

Hi,
I want to learn Oracle database and developer 2000. So I need the softwares.I am going to download
1. Oracle Forms Developer/Server Release 6i for Windows NT
2. Oracle8i Personal Edition on NT
Before download them, I want to know if they can work together. I am in Australia, do you know where I can get the free softwares, or with lower price.
If you have another way for self-training, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Sue

They do work together, though the installation process is moderately complicated. You may want to check this web site: http://www.chow1.myweb.nl/
This site has some experiences and procedures that have worked in the past for this combination.
You should also check Amazon.com or your local tech bookstore for books on Developer.

Windows 10 Enterprise Edition: Installation and Development Environment Essentials: Thoughts & Assistance Req:

Hello,
I am in the architecture planning stage of my project and seeking personal and general good advice from Mircosoft engineers. I am laying the foundation stones of a new development product using at least three more new technologies that are
as new as Windows 10. Their are also around four or five technology partners with the latest version of their software that I wish to take onboard. Due to the sensitive nature of the project it is not wise for me to state each piece of technology used,
so I will be as accurate as possible using the limited means I have.
I wish to make a "closed" development environment, with the latest build (currently 9860), install the new software. Some of which installs fine, some of which is not compatabile with Windows 10. Regarding the latter I am in discussions with the
technology providers to make a work-around and hammer and chisel through every issue. Very soon I hope to have a fully stable working development environment which paves the road to a first prototype. So i need to make a decision soon to "lock
down" everything. I will miss Windows 10 updates but the advantage is when the project vertical slice is complete, the feedback and benefit will be larger for Windows 10 final product.
This is probably my fifth or sixth early evaluation of the Windows platform and I am aware of the highs and lows of working with various versions using new builds, from the stability of win98 (becoming 2000 - minus millennium 1999 edition), to the quick uninstall
of vista (it broke our internal projects). The solid bedrock of Windows NT (becoming XP) and so on. The good news is Windows 10 seems very good indeed.
My questions are two:
1) Would the windows team recommend a closed environment development in my situation, and are they aware of other developers doing it (is it wise from your end)? Is their a pool, can we communicate directly?
or
2) Would you recommend an open environment instead? Every install is updated, everything is all on-line and networked, this may lead to more breakages and sacrifice the finished product.
The problem with approach number 2 is that a particular technology may work with this build, but not the next one and vice versa. I will constantly be playing "bunny hop" trying to make it work.
The problem with using number 1 is that you can have a "false dawn" view of the project, meaning you have managed to get it stable and develop code that fits that environment and build, but as soon as you do update six months later, it breaks due
to feature change, it means massive re-work, ultimately breaking the product again.
I have seen these approaches drown larger projects and wash away whole development teams.
Its a tough one and a part of my R&D but very soon I need to make a decision.
To explain more, some of the technology used will be:
Windows 10 Enterprise - Perforce - Office 365 with Exchange Activ Synch - Any associated Intel CPU and GPU monitors.
In other words very stable and solid technology. Their is about an equal number of other techs that are not so stable but I am slowly getting to work under Windows 10.All feedback would be given to Microsoft, regardless of environment 1 or 2.
Any advice and help from the Microsoft Team is greatly appreciated.
Yours Kindly,
Asad

I recently went to an Enterprise Mobility Summit Microsoft was holding at one of their facilities, and they spoke a bit about the future of Windows 10 - and here's what I left with: Microsoft isn't really sure themselves what kind of updating scheme they're
going to be doing with Windows 10. They had some ideas, but they're looking for feedback from enterprises and engineers about their plan.
I don't think it was under an NDA, so I should have no problem discussing it: their idea was to have different tracks (based on the user) with different upgrade schedules based on what the administrator deems appropriate for that user. For instance,
a consumer would have their OS automatically updated as soon as the update was available. while enterprises could stagger their users to a more manageable 3-month or 6-month schedule. Microsoft wasn't sure how long to make this stagger schedule - talk
of a 1 year stagger were floated, but nothing concrete. Critical devices, like POS or ATMs, could be setup so they would never be upgraded, or only upgraded when the administrator specifically allows them to be upgraded.
For you personally, it sounds like a closed development environment is better, since you're testing critical business applications. Again, one never knows exactly what direction Microsoft will take, but with the amount of conversations and...
warnings that dropped by various people at this meeting, it's pretty safe to say that they'll be some sort of timed release schedule for enterprises that you can prepare for.
Hope that helps!

Creating A New Oracle Database And Sql Developer

Hi,
I'm a newbie to Oracle and and a not so newbie to Sql Server and Visual Studio.
I am trying to learn Oracle on my local machine. I want to create a new Oracle Database and start learning from there.
I have downloaded sql developer, the data modeler, and the Oracle Client. Could someone please provide some guidance on how to create a Oracle Database?
From the responses, it appears that none of the items I mentioned actually creates a database. Sql Server provides a free download, also a developer version for a minimal fee. What specific Oracle product would be best to provide this type of service?
Thanks,
Mark

Edited by: user8948230 on Jan 7, 2010 9:50 AMIn addition to downloading and installing the database software to create a database, might I also suggest you start getting familiar with the documentation.
Learning where to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com. Drill down to your product and version.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
After you have familiarized yourself with what is available, read the "2-Day DBA" manual to help get you started.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Look in your alert log and find all the non-default initialization parms listed at instance startup. Then read up on each one of them in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Database App Development VM (Nov 2011) APEX username and password

Does anyone know the Workspace names, usernames and passwords for Instance Admin(Internal workspace), Developers and Users for the latest Database App Development VM (Nov 2011) available from OTN?
The VM forum is very quiet/unhelpful.
NOTE it is NOT
obe/obe/obe
or
oracle/oracle
or
admin/admin
thanks in advance
Paul

OK I followed Roel's suggestion and changed the ADMIN password using the apxchpwd.sql utility. There is no other way as there are no users defined in APEX except the instance administrator ADMIN
MAKE SURE you run V4.1 of apxchpwd.sql as V4.0.1 doesn't work and gives a security error. (Down load APEX 4.1 from OTN then extract apxchpwd.sql from the APEX directory.)
If you now try and connect to APEX and get an error in the browser (firefox) INTERNAL ERROR then shutdown the VM and restart it.
you should then be able to log onto the Instance Administrator as follows:
WS: Internal
UN: ADMIN
PW: <what you changed it to in the apxchpwd>
After you log on you will be asked to provide a new ADMIN password with all the naming restrictions enabled. (these can be turned off later, under manage instance...security settings. Under "Service Administrator Password Policy" change the radio button to "Use policy specified in Workspace Password Policy")
After logging into the workspace manager you will see that the OBE workspace has a status of TERMINATION_IN_PROGRESS5 .
If you want to retain this WS then create the OBE user as a workspace administrator and developer in the OBE workspace. If you set OBE/obe as the UN/PW
then you can log out of the Internal Workspace and log back in as the OBE developer and start application development.
Amazing how none of this is documented in the download! If you don't know much about APEX then you are locked out!

Installing Oracle Database and SQL Developer

Hi, I was looking for some help/advice in regards to installing an Oracle Database and SQL Developer onto a Windows 7 32bit machine. I have been asked to create a database to store data that I create through reports in Excel so I am required to create a local database but not sure how to go about doing this. Also not sure if I install the Express Edition or Oracle Database 11g R2. If somebody could please advise on how I can get this started or even any links/tutorials that would guide me in how to get this installed with a localhost.
Thanks in advanc.

Thanks guys, I have managed to install Oracle 11gR2 and I have setup a database using the dbca tool and I can connect to my new database. One thing that I have noticed is that when i look into my tables in sql developer i see loads of different tables i.e. def$_, logmnr_, etc and I am not sure why this is as I expected an empty tablespace.
Thanks btw for all your help.
One of the key principles of relational databases is that they use their own facilities to manage themselves. That means the database management system uses the database to manage data about the database using exactly the same facilities (tablespaces, tables, user accounts, procedures, etc) that an application uses to keep data for the application. See "data dictionary" So there is no such thing as a completely empty database.
As said by others, you do NOT want to be creating your own tables under oracle's schemas (users) or in oracle's own tablespaces (esp. SYSTEM and SYSAUX). Create your own user account/schema. Create your own tablespace. Make that tablespace the default for that user.

Should I learn database design and development skills?

Hi everyone,
I am a junior Oracle with 3 years experience. I have got Oracle 10g and 11g OCP certifications.
I know how to install, configure,monitor and maintain databases, but I don't know hot to design and develop databases.
I know that employers demand of us more and more. Database design and development skills are the basic requirements.
Should I start to learn database design courses?
If yes, please recommend me the books(or Oracle Docs) of Getting Started.
Thank you very much

Google "data normalization" and study up on 1st, 2d, and 3d Normal Form.
Go through the Oracle docs and get very familiar with the different data type (varchar, number, date, etc)
Read the Tom Kyte Books.
Programmers keep wanting to re-invent what the database already does, and treat the database as a data dump. As a result, I'd focus on analysis and design issues before approaching books on programming technology. (and I was an applications programmer/analyst for about 15 years before transitioning to DBA)

Establishing Production and Development Databases

We are a small organization that is moving from SQL Server to Oracle and have 3 developers. What is the best way to establish production and development database environments in Oracle. By development I mean the area where database development work, debugging, and testing is done before moving anything to production. What are our options? IE: Two separate Oracle instances on the same server, two separate servers, or another way? Due to budget restraints, we are looking for a workable solution that doesn't require much expense.
Thanks

Most companies only pay for PROD licenses. I disagree. Most companies have licenses for all their environments. If you are a large customer, you probably bundle all the environments together and you may not have a separate charge for the lower environments, but you are still in effect paying for development environment licenses.
Oracle Database Licensing - Development and Test InstancesI'd second Hans's point in this thread
"Careful ... if the dev or test environments are used to support production, they should be licensed with an appropriate 'right to use' license."
Unless you are building a prototype, in which case the production environment is not necessary, lower environments do need to be licensed.
Also, check if you need Enterprise edition, or only need Standard which is cheaper (e.g check the features included).I heartily agree here. Oracle's standard edition is generally equivalent in features to SQL Server enterprise edition, so since the original poster is coming from a SQL Server world, it may be perfectly reasonable to go from SQL Server enterprise to Oracle standard edition. You may also want to look into using either XE across the board or the personal edition of Oracle in a development environment for developer sandboxes.
