Error while installing APEX3.2

Question

Hi,
FYI, I do not know about database and APEX.
But I have to install APEX3.2 on my team linux server.
I got an error while installing APEX3.2.
The installation guide says as below.
Run apex_epg_config.sql passing the file system path to the base directory where the Oracle Application Express software was unzipped as shown in the following example:
      On UNIX and Linux:
      @apex_epg_config /tmpUsing Putty, I moved to the folder where APEX3.2 is unzipped on the server and connected it sysdba.
From there I ran apex_epg_config.sql as below and got an error.
I'm confused with /tmp.
If I am already in the current folder, should I again define the path? If yes, how it should be?
FYI, APEX3.2 is unzipped in "/home/oracle/apex" of the Linux box.
Would appreciate your help.

Answer 1

Hi,
APEX team successfully installed APEX3.2 on the linux box with the following steps.
1. Dropped user APEX_030200 and flowxxxx user with cascade option
2. ran the apex installation SQL
3. ran the following post installation process from sql prompt to copy the images
@apxldimg.sql /home/oracle
4. ran the apxchpwd.sql to change the password of 'Admin' user.
It seems I skipped dropping flowxxxx user option.
Thanks,
Guy
