what is the config info of this oracle database?Who knows? It's your database.
you indicated that you don't know how to connect to the database. What have you used? What have you tried? Most important -- what documentation have you referenced?
Here's a hint:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10766/tdddg_connecting.htm#CEGGIIEJ
Please do more than just read the link. Take note of where it is.
Learning how 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.
<b><i><u>BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION</u></i></b>
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 <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> 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 <b><i><u>kind</u></i></b> 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 <b><i><u>reference</b></i></u> manuals. Just get familiar with <b><i><u>what</b></i></u> is there to <b><i><u>be</b></i></u> 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.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) 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.

    Hi,
    I am new member of this group , I want to install demo ( free) version of oracle apps on window 7 for practise .
    Please help me....Oracle Apps 11i is no longer available for download and you will have to log a SR to get the Media Pack, so go with R12 instead which can be downloaded from:

  • Free version of oracle database.

    Hi everbody,
    Can anybody tell if there is a free version of Oracle database which can be used for training purpose.
    This software is required for the hands on purpose for the associates.
    Moreover, it would be kind enough of you to suggest that which is the most suitable version for installing on CentOS 6.3 64 bit ?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    What is the purpose/content of the training ? For self-learning purposes, all of the database versions available at Oracle Downloads | Software | Oracle are "free". Currently, no Oracle database software is certified/supported on CentOS, although folks have managed to install it on this OS, with the assumption that they will have to troubleshoot any issues on their own. Again, for self-learning purposes, Oracle Linux is freely available at https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101:3

  • Where can I download a free version of Oracle to ODBC link to Oracle 9.20

    Hi
    We use a CAD system which is based around an Oracle database version Oracle 9.2. I have an access database that I need to link a table within the CAD system. The access database will be deployed around our buisness to users that do not have a full Oracle install.
    I am trying to find a free download version of Oracle and the ODBC links to use on our XP PC's.
    Does one exist?
    Regards,
    Kevin

    Hi Justin,
    In answer to your questions, the database server has a full installation of Oracle 9.2. We have a limited number of workstations that have a fully licensed Oracle client installation (required to use our PDM system). On these workstations we can successfully configure an ODBC connection to the Oracle database on the server and link tables in MS Access. However the majority of our PCs do not have any Oracle client installed, nor do we have any further Oracle client licenses to install with (we do have the installation media for both the server and client software).
    We have attempted to use Orcale Instant Client (and ODBC addon) believing that we do not need licenses for this, at both the latest version 11.1.0.70 and at the earliest version we could find 10.1.0.5 but neither was successful in making an ODBC connection to the Oracle 9.2 database. Is this because we are using the wrong version of the Instant Client or is it just because we cannot configure it correctly? Are we correct in believing that we do not need to purchase licenses for Instant Client?
    If we are way off the mark, what can you suggest?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Kevin (and co)

  • Free version of oracle for windows?

    Is there a free version I can download to my home pc to practice on?

    As long as it is for training or evaluation and NO development of production software, oracle doesn't charge anything to download their database software. The downside, is that you can't download any patches without a paid up metalink account. That being said, then simply go to the link below and download any version that you want.

  • Downloading previous versions of Oracle Service Bus (other than 11.1.1.7)

    Current release of Oracle Service Bus is 11.1.1.7.0.
    Which is downloaded here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/service-bus/downloads/index.html
    But where do I find earlier versions?
    I need to download 11.1.1.6.3 but can't find it.

    I think it has been possible before to download previous versions.
    For WebLogic Server it is possible to download different versions.

  • Downloading free material for Oracle Certification

    Hi All,
    Can anybody suggest me some sites thru which I can download free kits for
    OCP exams.
    Regards
    Kedar

    Thanks Zak! I'll check that site out...
    Sorry for the lack of clarity. What I mean is that I am making several different kinds of videos that have silly sections to them, such as a video about studying that has a guy get "drowned" in books/papers. For times like those, having some silly classical music, or short 10-30 second music that emphasizes the comedic effect would be helpful. For example, sometimes after a joke in a show, there will be a short, 5 second clip that sort of drives home the point that a stupid joke was just used.
    I work as a teacher, love being a student of all things, and enjoy a variety of hobbies. I am putting together videos that poke fun at and highlight the frustrations and joys of these various aspects of my life (and therefore, hopefully others can connect with them too). Some musical accompaniment would be great to create the appropriate atmosphere for many parts of my videos.
    I hope that is easier to understand!

  • Downloading demo version of Oracle E-Business Suite 11i

    Hello,
    I am planning to take 11i E-Business Suite Essentials for Implementers certification exam in a short while. I am presently self-studying the courseware. I do not feel a need to take an Oracle University class for this purpose.
    Is there any place where I can download a demo version of 11i Suite, with a dummy database, which I can play with in order to get a better feel of the application?
    Would appreciate your valued inputs.
    Warm regards,
    Vish.

  • Licensed version and free download from OTN of Oracle 10g DB

    I had a doubt with any difference with the licensed version and free download from OTN of Oracle 10g DB. We had downloaded a free version of oracle 10g
    database from OTN and are using it in our live environment. It seems to be working fine. We are trying to get a licensed copy of Oracle 10g DB also but that may take sometime. So, my doubt is whether the free download from OTN should not create any problems in our live environment.
    I hope, my question is clear.
    Please, help in solving the doubt.
    regards

    Hello,
    There is no difference whether you download from OTN or get so called licensed copy of oracle software. It's free to download and free to use you are using for personal eduction purpose, but if you are using for commercial purpose then you should contact oracle sales for pricing but you can continue with the same software. See following link for certification on different platform

  • Can't upload free version of iMovie

    When I try to download free version of iMovie, iPhoto, etc. it goes from free to install to
    A moving circle and quickly back to free. Why will
    It not download?

    Well, you can't upload because you don't upload iTunes.  Now that this has been clarified, what do you mean it synced to a previous version?
    Syncing does not cause media to disappear off the device unless you are syncing to a new computer/library that the device has never synced to before.

  • Oracle free version

    Does there exist any free light versions of Oracle Database? I am trying to learn Oracle and have a few books, but without the tool itself in front of you it is not that easy, I think hands on experience using it would be much easier. Theer is MSDE for SQL Server just wondered if there was similar for Oracle

Take a moment to actually read the license agreement when you download. XE is the usual "personal" version and is probably pretty good from an apps view, but if you want to study from a DBA view, I'd get the full enterprise edition. I have a full virtual oracle lab running on my WinXP laptop, it is fully legal, and it cost me nothing.
    Download and install VMplayer from VMware (free)
    Download Oracle Linux from Oracle. (free. You only pay if you want support)
    Create a virtual linux server
    Download Oracle Enterprise Edition (free for personal study) and install it on the virtual Linux server.
    This setup will give you a much more realistic environment in which to hone your DBA skills.

  • What version of Oracle it's free use for linux

    Hi I want to know what version of Oracle Database it's free to use with linux OS, and how the licencing for more than two procesors is aply or it's a user licencing??
    Thanks for all...!!!

    I don't believe any edition of Oracle is free for a production application. For development purposes, you should be able to download any edition or Oracle for free.
    Of course, I'm neither a lawyer nor a representative of Oracle, so I'd suggest reading the exact license when you download the software.

  • After I downloaded and installed the latest iTunes upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free app upgrades for the apps I have on my iPad/iPhone/iMac which i had previously purchased. Itunes tells me I "don't own the major versions".

    After I downloaded and install the latest iTunes software upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free upgrades to the apps on my iPhone or iPad.
    The App Store just says I "don't own the major versions", which of course is nonsense. It seems as if Apple's iTunes/App Store has deleted my download history. Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Bruce

    Actually It doesn't. It says he's on a MacBook. I don't know all the different types of Macs. I was having a ton of problems with iChat. I opened DMZ to my computer, knocked down all firewalls etc and left everything exposed, still with bad results. A few weeks ago my power supply went out on my D-Link. I bought a linksys. Since I'd left all firewalls off I figured it couldn't be the router. I power cycled everything n the netork, still no luck. Today I bought a universal Power supply and started up my D-Link Router. Everything worked perfectly. My wifes computer - a laptop running Tiger worked fine with the Linksys and did my machine before the Leopard upgrade. Now that I've got the D-Link online everythings working.
