I have downloaded Oracle 10g Express Edition - username/password problem

I successfully downloaded the above download and in my "Start - Programs" section I correctly have "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition". I click onto this link and a dropdown menu appears. I click onto the "Actual Page" link and I'm prompted for my username and password. The heading is "Database Login". I originally created my username as my email address which is "[email protected]". When I try to login using this username and my password I get an "Invalid Login" message. So it is obvious that using this username is wrong.
What do I need to do? I clicked onto the link "Click here to learn how to get started". I noticed that I had to enter username of "system" for the administrator, followed by "Enter the password that was specified when Oracle Database XE was installed". The trouble is I was given no password at any stage when doing the download. How can I find out what my password is?
Please advice. I want to practice some PL/SQL examples for educational purposes only!
Thanks.

I noticed that I had to enter username of "system" for the administratorIf your problem is the system user's password, then you can simply change it : enter SQL command line, and
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> alter user system identified by manager123;
User altered.
SQL>Of course manager123 is only an example.

  • Download Oracle 10g express edition for window

    I want to download Oracle 10g Express Edition, but it seems that this version is replaced by 11g Express version.
    Is there any place which I can download 10g Express Edition?
    Thank.

    I think Oracle Corp. has removed 10g XE download because Oracle Corp. is pushing more for 11g now (10g XE was never officially supported but 10.1 and 10.2 Standard/Entreprise Edition are already in extended support mode: 10.2 will be in sustained support mode in July 2013).

  • Downloading Oracle 10g Express Edition

    Hello.
    I'm trying to access the webpage from oracle 10g express edition but the site return me this page isn't available anymore, i need to download this specific version, how am i supposed to go along with that?
    ps: if its not the right forum, please move it.

    Hi
    user599923, I recommend download Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2.
    Lik: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/express-edition/downloads/index.html
    TIPS
    when you install the database to make sure the account that has administrator privileges install.
    Why
    Sometimes the installer glitches. Sometimes its because the user running the install isn't a local admin.
    If there are no data files under the XE folder, that is a symptom of an installer glitch.
    See the Local Users and Groups applet, Start/Run lusrmgr.msc open the Groups folder, right click/Properties on Administrators. If you're logged into the host with a domain account, be sure your <domain>\loginname is in that local admins group.

  • Oracle 10g express edition browser login problem

    Hi
    I installed oracle 10g express edition and after installing successfully logged in browser , unlocked hr login and also created one form then I shutdown the database and rebooted my pc and since then when I try to login to "go to Database Home page" after starting database , I get a cookie 127.0.0.1 with username and password, First of all I am not sure what username/password it is expecting, I believe it requires my Windows XP username and password , I tried to enter couple of times my pc login username which has administrator privileges, I also checked it has ora_dba group but after entering pc username , password browser opens saying "unauthorized". I created another os user and tried with that still same. I tried entering oracle password "SYSTEM" and password for it but still could not login, I tried HR username password still nothing.
    I tried disabling firewall but still same issue. I tried to re-install two time but still same .
    Start database dos prompt does show all the process are started successfully .
    I also did ping for 127.0.0.1 and it does ping.
    I tried everything what I knew.
    Can anyone please help me ..to resolve this issue .

    Hi
    This is how I resolved the browser login problem .
    I checked the listener log
    C:\OracleXE\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\log
    And found the error
    TNS-12542: TNS:address already in use
    TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    TNS-00512: Address already in use
    I have another version for oracle installed on my pc .
    I ended both the oracle process (Oracle.exe) through the Task Manager
    Then manually started “OracleServiceXe” service through Component Services
    Control Panel – Performance & Maintenance – Administrative – Component Services
    Then did following
    Programs – Oracle Database10g ExpressEdition – Start Database
    Programs – Oracle Databse10g ExpressEdition – Go to Database Homepage –
    Enter username SYSTEM
    Enter password xxxxxx … whatever given at the time of installing.
    And I did successfully login to the browser .
    Hope this will help to those of you who have run into similar problem which I faced
    Good Luck .

    Hi,
    10g express edition (XE) is free database version of 10g. Application Express (Apex) is already installed to it.
    Apex version that comes with XE is 2.1.
    You can upgrade it to version 3.2.1 witch is latest one. New version of Apex comes with some nice features like interactive reports.
    If you have installed XE you are ready to go developer Apex applications and practice Oracle database

    Hello,
    Oracle 10g XE is rather specific and, I'm not sure that you can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 .
    However, Oracle published an Upgrade Guide for Oracle Express Edition but, it's limited to *10.2.0.3*:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/toc.htm
    But be careful:
    Once you have upgraded to Oracle Database 10g, you cannot downgrade back to Oracle Database Express Edition.Hope this help.

    does it mean my oracle http listener is started?

  • Not able to create partitions using Oracle 10g express edition

    Hello Everyone,
    I downloaded Oracle 10g express edition as the documentation for the same says that it supports partitioning of the table.
    But when I try to run a command like
    CREATE TABLE sales_range
    (salesman_id NUMBER(5),
    salesman_name VARCHAR2(30),
    sales_amount NUMBER(10),
    sales_date DATE)
    PARTITION BY RANGE(sales_date)
    PARTITION sales_jan2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('02/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
    PARTITION sales_feb2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('03/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
    PARTITION sales_mar2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('04/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
    PARTITION sales_apr2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('05/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY'))
    I get the following error
    "ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Partitioning"
    Please let me know what is causing the issue/error and how to resolve it.
    Thanks.

    Where did you read that the express edition supports partitioning? I would strongly suspect that there was an error in the documentation-- partitioning is an extra cost option on top of an enterprise edition database. Perhaps you are confusing the personal edition (which does support partitioning) with the express edition?

  • I have a problem with oracle 10g express edition

    Hello,
    I have just installed oracle 10g express edition and I have a problem with the script editor. I can write anything in the window that appears below buttons undo,redo and find, It is like disabled. I use windows XP, Firefox 2.0 ( I have also tried with Iexplorer and It does not work either). I have javascript enabled.
    anyone knows what is the problem?
    Later,I have installed it in a virtual machine of Windows 2003 Server and It works well but I`d rather use it in my Microsoft XP
    Thank you very much
    Fernando Martínez

    It looks like you can fix this if you replace the codearea.xbl.xml and codearea.iframe.html files in the
    /i/editor folder with files from an Apex 2.2.1 installation - such as the one on apex.oracle.com.
    Since I don't know what the licensing implications are, I will let you figure out the details.

    I want to use OS-Authentication for an Oracle 10g Express Edition. What value must be set in sqlnet.ora ? Where are the possible authentcation modes described ? I only found the description KERBEROS5.
    I tryed the value all, but with all no connect is possible.

    >
    Thanks for your link.
    A special username with prefix is needed. This user must be created for external authentication. This user must be known by the OS. Am i right ?
    >Right.
    >
    As i understand, to login with OS-Authentication i need a new windows user. This is not usable, because my users have their login and do not want to use another, when working with the database.
    Is there another way to use OS-Authentication ?As far as I know, this is not possible especially with Oracle XE which has not all features of Entreprise Edition.
