How to add dbms_registry in Oracle 9.2.0.1 for APEX 3.0

Question

I tried installing APEX 3.0 everything went right but just at the end it has given me errors and I searched for those errors and found that dbms_registry package is not available in oracle 9.2.0.1 and I also found that APEX 3.0 is compatible with 9.2.0.3 or higher versions, but i have 9.2.0.1. and in documents oracle says that it supports oracle 9.2 at least so i thought i do have 9.2, and will be able to do the installation.
**some last messages and errors are:**

I Tried 3 to 4 times but every time same thing is happening.
But now i think if i can add dbms_registry then i might be able to user APEX 3.0 with oracle 9.2.0.1
So if anybody can help me that is it possible to add dbms_registry in oracle 9.2.0.1, if yes how can i do that. or if any other method that i can use to install APEX 3.0 with Oracle 9.2.0.1.
Regards
Abbas

Thanks fro reply
I have done as you say. I have created MYPROC_LOG_TABLE. Add insert statement in "update_attendance" to insert rows in MYPROC_LOG_TABLE.
my procudure code is now like this
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE update_attendance IS
hr_date date := null;
server_date date := null;
BEGIN
select max(time_in) into hr_date from attendance@hr;
select max(time_in) into server_date from attendance;
if hr_date > server_date then
--select count(*) into tot from attendance@hr a where a.time_in > server_date;
insert into attendance
select * from attendance@hr a where a.time_in > server_date;
end if;
INSERT INTO MYPROC_LOG_TABLE VALUES ('PAYROLL',SYSDATE);
commit;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN null;
END update_attendance;
I have created a new job as like this
declare
v_job number:=33;
begin
dbms_job.SUBMIT(v_job,'update_attendance;',sysdate+10/86400,'sysdate+10/86400');
commit;
end;
and i have run this job as under
execute dbms_job.RUN(62);
Again it run only once insert one row MYPROC_LOG_TABLE and insert rows from remote server database to the client database.
But after it did not insert rows MYPROC_LOG_TABLE and also did not insert rows from server database to the client database.
I have check the dba_jobs view as under.
select * from dba_jobs;
the "Next_sec" colums is seccessfully changed to the new time after every 10 seconds. But why the procedure did not call after every 10 seconds.
Please tell me what is the problem.
I will be very thankful to you.
Thanks and regards.
