Database Home Page/ APEX

I have Oracle Express Edition 10.2.0 in my PC, and I installed APEX 3.1. Now, when I try to open the Ex. Edition Data Base Home page http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, it comes the Apex login page with Workspace, Login informations. In fact I would like to see the home page with Application Builder Icons, Database Administrative tools icons.
How do I do that? What went wrong here. Note: OS: XP Pro.

I read the "How to Upgrade" section under "Interface Differences between Oracle APEX 2.1 and 3.0.1", and came to know that the Workspace = dbuser name in XE to login into XE. But now, after selecting "Login", the page doesnt refresh, on the bottom left corner, I could see "Error on page". I am not familier with Web technologies :-). Please advice.

XE Database home page gone after APEX 3.2 upgrade

I just upgraded the version of HTMLDB/APEX on my XE database from 2.0 to APEX 3.2. All went well, however, the database home page seems to have disappeared. When I go to Start|Programs|Oracle Database 10g Express Edition|Database home page, I now get the APEX start page. Does the upgrade blow away the Database Home Page?

Hello:
This is expected. If you decide to upgrade the Application Express within your Oracle Database XE, you will lose the Oracle APEX interface to perform some of your database management functions. This includes the ability to create and alter users, set database parameters, etc. To perform these functions, you will need to use either SQL Developer or SQL*Plus.http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.0.1_and_xe.html

After upgrade to 4.0 database home page now points to APEX IDE

I was using the original APEX version that comes with Oracle XE and everything was working very nicely.
After upgrading to APEX 4.0 when I select the "Go to Database Homepage" menu item for XE it routes me to the APEX 4.0 IDE (http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4550:1:1650564107787292). The home page properties is: C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\Database_homepage.url. Did I miss something in the upgrade steps?
Other than that everything seems to be running well.
Any help would be appreciated...

I actually had read that document way back when, but have been on 3.2 on 10g EE for quite some time and forgot all about it as I was just trying to get a quick review of 4.0 on XE and thought the only way to open up http access from local only on the gateway was in the database home page...live and learn.
thanks much for the help.

XE database home page link goes to APEX home page after 3.2 upgrade

Hi - I had Oracle XE running on Win XP all OK.
Taking the Database home page link took me to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4550: etc etc BUT it took me to the XE login page which we use for system administration - all good so far.
I then upgraded (sucessfully) the installed APEX (V2.1) which comes with XE to the new V3.2 version.
All went well BUT the url above takes me to APEX login page and I can't get to XE adminstration.
Any ideas or clues how I should upgrade to keep both login pages available ?

I'm not sure what you mean with this?
In APEX Upgrade guide are listed 'Database Management Differences between Oracle APEX 2.1 and 3.2'

Cannot View Database Home Page After Upgrading to XE 3.2 on Windows XP

Hi all,
I have recently upgraded from APEX 3.1 to APEX 3.2 on my Oracle 10g XE database running on Windows XP SP3.
Unfortunately after successfully completing the upgrade and starting the services when I try and visit the Start -> All Programs -> Oracle Database 10g Express Edition -> Go To Oracle Database Home Page I am receiving a page cannot be found error (or broken link message, depending on the browser I try IE7, Firefox 3.0.10 or Chrome 2.0).
The link I am being directed to is:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex (I have an entry in my Hosts file referring this to localhost).
How can I tell if Port 8080 is still open and accessible? I am using the embedded web pl/sql gateway and tried reconfiguring it again by running apxconf.sql as SYS:
SQL> @apxconf.sql
PORT
8080
Enter values below for the XDB HTTP listener port and the password for the Application Express ADMIN user.
Default values are in brackets [ ].
Press Enter to accept the default value.

I've backed out the 3.2 upgrade and reinstalled and receieved the same issue. The next step is to unistall the XE database and reinstall, but I'm loathed to do that without seeking some responses from this Forum.
Many thanks.
Have a great day.

Hello Roel,
Thank you taking the time to reply.
I had previously tried all those url combinations and still no luck.
I also found out about displaying the HTTP port number. And you were right it was listening on the default 8080. I disabled it and re-enabled it on port 9080 to see if that made a difference but it didn't so I decided to remoce Oracle XE database and go through the reinstallation and subsequent upgarde to APEX 3.2. Everything appera sto be working fime now.
One point of note is that if I view the Listener status now I notice another line from what I had previously referring to the HTTP listener, although my listener.ora file never changed (apart from having the TNS Listener port resuming to the default 1521).

Can anyone answer why this may have been omitted previously? Presumably this is why my browser couldn't render anything from APEX.

Cannot access Oracle XE database home page

Hi
I have just installed Oracle Database 10g express edition on my Windows XP, and the installation seemed to go well.
I then select to go to the database home page after the installation which opens a browser at this address: http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, and i get a The page cannot be displayed' error.
During the install, i was given this information:
Destination Folder: C:\oraclexe\
Port for 'Oracle Database Listener': 1521
Port for 'Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server': 2030
Port for HTTP Listener: 8080
I have tried restarting my computer, but still get the cannot find server error when attempting to go to the database home page.
I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with this issue, where they cannot get to the database homepage, and how they may have solved it.
I also have disabled my firewall. but still could not access Home Page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
many thanks
Philip.

Cannot Go To Database Home Page

I installed...
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) Express Edition for Microsoft Windows (Western European)
...and I choose >Start, >Programs, >Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, >Go To Database Home Page
...and IE6 opens and tries to load this URL
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
...and I get a "The page cannot be displayed" error.
If I try using the machine name...
http://kamoskimxp:8080/apex
...then the page loads; but, it is blank. (This leads me to think that if I knew the exact URL, fully-qualified, for the actual Database Home Page itself, including file name and extension, then I would be able to forcibly load the page. But, after many guesses, that URL is still unknown to me.)
Note -- This box is behind a corporate firewall.
Note -- This box has a built-in, fixed home page in IE that is the company's intranet home page, and this IE home page setting cannot be changed by the enduser.
So, my question is...
...How can one get the Oracle Database Home Page to load under such circumstances?
Please advise.
Thank you.

How to create TABLE using "Go To Database Home Page"

I installed Oracle 10g Express
The Database Home page is working fine using sys/system user name
I understand that this is also an APEX INTERNAL Application.
Now I installed APEX 3...latest version , the database page has now changed to APEX , Oracle Application Express page.
Also the http://.../apex/apex_admin .. is working, but I dont know where to find the Administration page of Database , which lets creation of database users & tables

Hi
If I understand you problem correctly then you go to Database Homepage, and login using sys/system you can see the homepage with the icons for 'Application Builder', 'SQL Workshop', 'Utilities'.
Here clicking on 'SQL Workshop' you will find 'Object Browser', 'Sql Commands', 'SQL Scripts' and 'Query Builder'.
You can create database objects by entering sql commands in 'Sql Commands' or from the 'Object Browser'->[Create] button.

Edited by: 921562 on Mar 24, 2012 3:35 AMThis has nothing to do with Oracle. Do you have an understanding of how URL's are constructed? The leading characters, delimited by the colon (':') specify http protocol. The string between the first colon and the next (if exists) specifies the fully qualified name of the host, or the IP addess of the host. Take a look at what you have there: //http//127.0.0.1" I really don't think your host name is "//http//127.0.0.1". More like '//127.0.0.1"

Oracle 10g XE - unable to connect to the database home page

Hi,
I have installed Oracle 10g XE on my computer. When I try to open the Database home page at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, I get a Page not found error.
I have followed the steps outlined in the forums-
a) did "netstat -a"
Output : found that port 8080 isn't being used.
b) did "lsnrctl status"
Output: under Services summary - instance "CLRExtProc" is unknown
- instance "PLSExtProc" is unknown
- instance "xe" is ready
- instance "xe_xpt" is ready
c) did "sqlplus / as sysdba"
Output : Connected to Oracle 10g Express Edition
d) did "select status from v$instance "
Output : Mounted
e) did "select open_mode from v$database"
Output : Mounted
f) did "startup"
Output : started the database
Not sure why the database home page still wouldn't open. Any help is appreciated.

The command completed successfully
Has anyone faced this error and resolved it successfully?
Where i can find the log files to trace the cause for this error? Is it possible to recreate apex repository (similar to EM repository recreation)??
Please Advice.
Thank U
SHAN

Thanks for your reply, Aaron.
All users are in the end user group.. I even created a new role/user group that gives users complete read/write access to all end user features. Still no go. I think it is an LDAP issue, but I'm confused because everything else works.

I do not see the Go To Database Home Page selection.

1 Logging in as the Database Administrator
The first thing you need to do is to log in as the Oracle Database XE
Administrator. Follow these steps:
1. Open the Database Home Page login window:
■ On Windows, from the Start menu, select Programs (or All Programs),
then Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, and then Go To Database
Home Page.
■ On Linux, click the Application menu (on Gnome) or the K menu (on
KDE), then point to Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, and then Go
To Database Home Page.
2. At the Database Home Page login window, enter the following information:
■ Username: Enter system for the user name.
■ Password: Enter the password that was specified when Oracle Database
XE was installed.
3. Click Login.
The Oracle Database XE home page appears.

That is really strange, actually the go to database homepage is going to the application express home page,

If you really cannot see this option, you can try to type the URL of apex and access it
http://localhost:port/apex
http://localhost:8080/apex
The go to database homepage menu option should be below the "Run SQL Command Line" .

I can't access to Database Home Page.
