Edit documents in Oracle Database, Sharepoint Like, WebDAV?

Hello out there!
I have a web application written in Java (JSP/Struts/Oracle ADF). The application runs on Oracle Application Server 10g, as well as an Oracle 10g database. I will probably be migrating to WebLogic in the near future.
In my database, I have a number of documents stored (doc/xls/pdf/jpg, etc.) These are all stored as BLOBs. I display these documents on a webpage, from where they can be downloaded by the users.
My task at hand is that I need to enable my users to open these docuements, edit them (in the case of doc and xls), and then save them back to the server (the database). This functionality is commonly known from MS Sharepoint. I have been looking at WebDAV, which I understand enables this kind of functionality. However, I am not sure how to get started using this, or if some plug-in already exists that would enable this functionality.
It seems to me that there must exist something out-of-the-box that enables this feature. After all, it is a business need that many others must have faced, or is facing.
Any help and guidance is highly appreciated. Is WebDAV the way to go? Do I need to build something from scratch, or is there a plugin available? Do I need to enable something on the web server / database in order to do this?
Thanks in advance for your help! I hope that my description of the problem is clear, and that some of you will be able to help me in the right direction.
Best Regards,
Kristian

UPDATE: I have now found a solution on my own, that solves my problem. I include it here, in case any developer in the same situation should come along this thread.
The solution is to use the Open Source MILTON API, which enables WebDAV for Java developers through an easy API. The API and further information is available here: [http://milton.ettrema.com/index.html|http://milton.ettrema.com/index.html]

Storing PDF and Word document in oracle database

any idea, how to store PDF and word document using oracle database.

The common approach is store as BLOB in database, use DBMS_LOB package to handle the loading and reading, sample script source asktom

How to Edit an Existing Oracle Database 11g Template

I fat fingered a file specification in an Oracle 11g database creation template on Solaris 10. Is there a way to edit the template without deleting it and starting over?
Also, is there a way to import an existing template into a different $ORACLE_HOME?

Actually, I have both in mine, but the .dbt files I have are the ones that I saved (at the end of using the dbca when it ask you to save your template and give it a file name). I think the .dbt stands for database template.
e.g., (this is Oracle 11.1)
$ <none> /oracle/product/11.1/assistants/dbca/templates>ls -lastr

Download problems Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

Completed download.
Attempted to start application but cannot find the server.
Removed the software using add/remove programs.
Attempted to reinstall but it seems that some applications are still on my system.
Attempted to remove the application but the add/remove program does not recognized the application
What can I do.

Hello,
I need to install "Oracle database 10g Express Edition" with different database name example dev but it is taking
default name that is XE and there is no option come during installation where i can put the name of database as per my desire.First, note that you can't install more than one instance of XE per server. Changing the instance name won't help you with that.
As you've already found out, the installer always creates a database instance with default names. That's part of the "Express" concept: As little configuration as necessary to get a Oracle Database installed with just a few clicks. The second advantage is, that you can also simplify the documentation, as you can forget about several aspects when you don't have to configure them...
Since you don't have tools like dbca in XE, your only option would be to rename the database once it's created. There are a few threads on that topic in this forum, e. g. {thread:id=403056}.
But before you start working on that, could you explain why exactly you have to use a different database/instance name?
And also explain why we use "Oracle database 10g Express Edition" instead of Oracle database 10g. what is the meaning of Express Edition.Why and how should we answer why you picked a certain edition? The most likely cause is license costs: XE is available for free, all others are just free as long as you use the OTN license...
For an overview, there is a [url http://www.oracle.com/us/products/database/enterprise-edition/comparisons/index.html]Comparison Matrix for Oracle Database Editions.
I'd furthermore ask why you still use 10g XE instead of the current 11g XE?

Unable to edit document from SharePoint 2007 using Office 2013 and IE 11

I am getting the following error when I try to edit a document from SharePoint 2007: "Edit document

1) repaired Office; 2) switched from 64 bit version of IE to 32 bit version; 3) moved the owssupp.dll from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\ to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15; 4) tried removing old versions of Office (but
I still need to use Office Communicator 2007 r2 and couldn't figure out how to get rid of the Office14 files from Program Files); and 5) running SharePoint in IE compatibility mode. Please advise...thanks!

Hi,
It seems you installed mixed version Office2007/2010/2013 on your client machine?
I would suggest you remove all Office 2007 and 2010 version, and reinstall Office 2013(include Office Tools->Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support component) on your machine, and make sure "Open SharePointDocuments class" add-on is enabled
from IE11, then check if it could fix the issue.
If above works, please test again after installing the Office Communicator 2007 r2 on your machine.

Confused in oracle database firewall

Dear all,
I'm working on lab for oracle database firewall. Document on Oracle database Firewall reading have a lot of limit to understand for configuring.
Anyone can help me in this lab:
situation of lab:
- Install oracle database firewall on one machine which have two networkd card, (for monitor only using span port group on switch).
- For testing, I install local monitor on SQL express 2005 server (script for SQL server), Unfortunately, In this lab document don't give a solution for communicating between SQl server and Database Firewall, How can I configure SQL server to communicate with database firewall,
thanks anh best regard,

Hello, user12326737,
I think you should check if you are following these guidelines:
When using a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later database, ensure that the database uses mixed-mode authentication.
Local monitoring uses a source IP address of 0.0.0.0, and port 0, for statements originating from a console user or other process. The destination address (displayed in the traffic log) is the same as one of the protected databases being monitored.
Local monitoring does not record duplicate SQL statements. It only records the last SQL statement in a set of duplicate SQL statements.
Local Monitor does both a forward and reverse DNS lookup to determine if a session is from the local machine. If a DNS configuration is broken and prevents the server from doing the lookup successfully, then the Local Monitor cannot record console events. To ensure that Local Monitor records all local sessions, check that your DNS configuration is correct.
If you do, then tell me.
If you have any questions, ask.

Licensing Oracle Database SE for processor Intel 2670v2 10 cores 2.5 Ghz

Hello,
I have read and understood the Oracle licensing terms and I'm aware of the limitations SE puts on the server it is installed to. Still I need someone to approve my initial understanding.
Can I install Oracle Database SE on a system with 2 processors (Intel 2670v2 10 cores 2.5 Ghz each)?

Which version of Standard edition you are using ?
Oracle Database Standard Edition One
Or Oracle Database Standard Edition
Each one is difference than the other one, but regarding to what i know about Oracle SE License you should care about Maximum socket not Core and you check how much socket for each one :
http://www.oracle.com/us/products/database/standard-edition-one/comparisons/index.html
For Example :
SE ONE
Total # of Processors: 2
Total # of Cores: 8
SE
Total # of Processors: 4
Total # of Cores: 24
there is thread in some where here discuss this you can search on it here.

Oracle Database Standard Edition One's Cost

Dear all
I am very interest on the Oracle Database Standard Edition One, (US$149 per user (minimum five users)) includes the functionality and the cost (only US$ 149*5). However, I would like to know that is there any hidden cost for it? (e.g. maintaince fee etc.) Meanwhile, is there any backward compatible for the such license (i.e. I buy 10g version but use 8/8i version in production)
Anyone can has such experience and share for it?
Thanks in advance
Regards

There is generally a lot of confusion around Standard Editoin One. Here is my understanding, along with rationale and links supporting my understanding.
1) Standard Edition One was NOT part of Oracle8i, and NOT part of Oracle9i release 1.
Oracle's "Oracle9i Family of products" document, released shortly after 9iR1, does not mention SE1. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/oracle9i/pdf/o9i_family_features.pdf
2) Standard Edition One MAY be part of Oracle9i Release 2 family, but it's not likely.
On metalink, there are a few 'forum' documents that discuss SE1 and Oracle9i. However, document #530049.994 from forum thread "Is Standard Edition One available in 9i/9ir2", dated 05-OCT-2004 says SE1 is a 10g new thing. (This post should be available in these forums.)
3) No-one purchasing a new license should be installing a fresh copy of Oracle8i and probably not Oracle9i
You purchase the license primarily to obtain (be able to purchase) support. Oracle8i is no longer under support (except through an exorbitantly priced extended support contract) and Oracle9i is abount to be mved to extended support. The question is ... why?
4) Personal Edition is NOT being replaced by SE1.
The Standard Edition One is a subset of Standard Edition - mainly missing RAC, so it is limited to one machine only. From the Oracle Database 10g Licensing document we note that the Personal Edition provides ALL FEATURES AND OPTIONS of the Enterprise Edition, except RAC.
It is fairly obvious from this that Personal Edition is targetted at developers who need metalink access, whereas Standard Edition One is targetted at workgroups that would consider using SQL Server STabdard/Workgroup Edition.

Oracle Database Express Edition used in a standalone database

I have been developing databases for years in Access. I have had alot of people want me to make databases for them. I do not want to make the databases in access and then have to worry about sending a database to a different state and then find out that the user has a different version of access installed and it is not working correctly.
Can I use Oracle database express edition to create a database with a front end that I can send to others and they can install it on their computer and run it? Or do they need to install the full version of Oracle Express? In other words is there like a Runtime version?

user13756579 wrote:
I saw that had to install twice last night, messed up my password. The one thing I am worried about is the database running all the time on the users computer, even tho they might not use the database for months at a time. These databases are small databases to keep the data of group members. ie. name, address, phone, personal information and maybe a scanned document or two.
I have looked at other database programs, but do not want to put out alot of money if I might only develop 3-5 small databases a year.You may develope your application in such manner, that it will start Oracle XE service and stop it on exit. Set the service to start manually. That's it.

How to install oracle database 11g express edition on Windows 7

Hi Guys,
i am trying to download and install Oracle database 11g express edition on windows7 and i can't seem to get it right. i did get the download but when i try to install, it keeps saying it appears to be an invalid archive.
Please help..

Action - Refer to the logs or contact OracleFinding the problem is the key. "Refer to the logs" is the only option, XE has no oracle support offerings.
Which plugin failed, and why did it fail will be important clues. There should be error messages in the log that will be helpful.
Otherwise, we don't have much help to offer. Fixing a problem means identifying the problem and performing steps to correct it, if there a fix is available.
A MOS lookup on the ins-20802 error has snippets from one installer session, this one is from an x64 install. Not x86. To paraphrase the details:
... Created a new file <drive>:<OH path>\cfgtoollogs\configToolAllCommands
SEVERE: java.io.IOException: Access is denied
...So from those symptoms, the user trying to run the installer does not have appropriate rights on that drive and/or folder. The fix for that particular problem is adding the user to the local administrators group. And rerunning the install. After running the deinstall steps to clean up the installation. As specified in the XE install guide for Windows.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm
Also note the System Requirements, it specifies a System architecture Intel x86, which is not X64. There is no X64 installer for XE on Windows. So it might work. Or it might not if your host is x64.
So if that is your particular error, verify that your user is in the local admins group. Either use the local users and groups applet (Start/Run/lusrmgr.msc) and open up the Administrators group. Click the Add button. Find your user. If your OS user is a windows domain user, be sure you have authenticated to the domain.
Try the `net ...` list of the adminis group, that should reveal whom is indeed in the local administrators group:
net localgroup administrators
Administrator
<domain>\Domain Admins ... # ??? is the host in windows domain ???
<domain>\Local Admins
<domain>\<user1>
<user2>
<user3>
echo %USERNAME%
# if relevant:
echo %USERDOMAIN%Like it also states in the Windows install guide, under Permission Required quote:
... must be a member of the Administrators group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE.

Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition

Hi Friends,
I have worked on Oracle 9i but now I would like to work on Oracle 10g but confuse because there are more option for download.Which one should I go for?
Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition ?
Or Any other option.
Any Suggestion are welcome.
KarTiK.

It all depends on what exactly you are planning to use oracle for. Depending on the version, there may be found or not some features, you can see it this way:
EE > SE > XE
EE is a superset of SE and SE is a superset of XE. So you will find several limitation on the XE edition.
However, even though XE is a very limited version, it cannot be underestimated, it can be used for Spatial Data projects, it works with spatial data locator, and there are several guides that show how to use it with PHP so you can start a web site. WebPLSQL is included with it, so the only limit is your creativity.
This version can be very useful, and you can make the most of it, you may be interested in reading this article Oracle Database 10g Express Edition: Not Just for Learners
by Lewis Cunningham.
The XE edition is free. So you can use it without license fees and is the best suitable tool for learning, it is easy to install and setup. You can have a fully functional XE database out of the box. Once you feel more comfortable with oracle technology you can start thinking about taking the next step to a SE or EE edition.
