I'm new in Oracle Express.

Do I need to install software and database on my Server first and run all applications from my server?
Is that a hosted solution and all applications, data and database on Oracle site?
Please help to understand,
Thanks a lot

Dmitry,
you need:
a server (hardware of your choice)
an operating system (windows 2000 is fine but perhaps use a newer version (W2003).
a webserver (you can use http-server of Oracle)
a database (oracle 10g)
an apex-installation (in the database)
you need to arrange access from the internet to your server.
that´s the minimum

Lsnrctl services does not show service XE - new install of Oracle Express

It's a time-consuming and problematic installation of Oracle Express 11g, but for the moment just one question: why isn't service XE showing up in lsnrctl services? Here's that output, with Service XE missing:
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC1)))
Services Summary...
Service "CLRExtProc" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "CLRExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...

LOCAL SERVER
Service "PLSExtProc" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "PLSExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
Handler(s):

The command completed successfully
listener.ora is:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)
tnsnames.ora is:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)
slqnet.ora is:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)

Well, I think this is progress, attempting to connect in sqlplus gives the error I had in SQL Developer when I had service XE showing up in lsnrctl services (that was the 2nd installation, now on the 3rd)
SQL> connect system/xxxxxxx
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Process ID: 0
Session ID: 0 Serial number: 0
So, couldn't connect and no luck with alter system register.
Yes, I should be OK with 127.0.0.1, both client and server are my home PC. Thanks for the idea of testing with no listener.ora at all - I renamed and moved listener.ora, for this interesting result: in sqlplus I either get the same ORA-01034 and ORA-27101, or 2 pages of a sqlplus help file, depending on the logon syntax used. I'm sure that's user error. In SQL Developer New Database Connection Test I get ORA-12514.
I've been closely following the thread from Marco ORA-01034 , ORA-27101 in windows Domain, and have learned a lot from you, Srini and TSharma. I think I'm leaning towards the possibility of a bad install. Task Manager shows process oracle.exe running (this may not mean much) and Services shows all the Oracle services Started. I don't know enough to interpret what I'm seeing for oracle.exe in Windows Process Explorer, although it looks like something is running. But suppose, hypothetically, that it was a bad installation, how would I test that?
Looking at the log files, I'm seeing clsc1.log is nearly identical to what Marco reported in that other thread:
Oracle Database 11g Clusterware Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production Copyright 1996, 2010 Oracle. All rights reserved.

[ CLSE][3228]clse_get_crs_home: Error retrieving OLR configuration [0] [Error opening olr registry key. The system cannot find the file specified.
This may be another clue, the listener log file has this after a SQL Developer New Database Connection Test (test of Connection Type TNS + Network Alias XE, XE shows up just fine in the dropdown). My computer name is newamptron, and that host_addr IP is my DSL provider. Note the completely random port 2051. Essentially same message data with or without listener.ora in place.

Creating a new database with oracle express

how to create a database with oracle express. the web based interface for managing oracle sucks and it is too slow, they'd bet better of developing a rich client application for managing XE. Oracle XE comapraed to SQL Express is very poor.

Try to post it Oracle Database Express Edition (XE)<br>

How to use unixODBC with Oracle Express on Ubuntu 8.10?

I downloaded Oracle Express a couple of days ago, so I am totally new to Oracle.
I tried connecting via unixODBC, using dsn=oracledsn, user=dba, password=abcd and received error info:
1: st=01000, nerr=0, msg=
[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib '/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1' : file not found
but the shared 'so' library actually does exist at the path above. I also set
ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini;export ODBCINI and immediately checked it was in the environment.
The .ini files are:
/etc/odbcinst.ini
[OracleExpressdrv]
Driver = /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1
Description = Oracle 10g express driver
/etc/odbc.ini
[ODBC Data Sources]
oracledsn = Oracle Express DSN
[oracledsn]
Driver = OracleExpressdrv
Note: The dsn and the driver names are enclosed within square brackets but came out as web links above in the preview.
After many hours of googling I have not been able to find how to connect via ODBC to a local (on my PC) Oracle Express.
Advice would be most welcome.

hello
I have the same problem. My system is Fedora 11
I set the odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini files as you mentioned. I also set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH :
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/
when I try to connect using isql, I get that error:
[01000][unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib '/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1' : file not found
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect
I couldn't figure out what I am missing.
May someone help please?

Oracle Express 6.3.4 on Win2K Install bug

Downloaded Oracle Express Server 6.3.4 build on Technet. It says its a Maintenance Release, but it needs some fixing itself. The release when 'Typical' installed on clean Win 2K with Oracle 9iR2 and OWB9i, skipping Oracle HTTP server configure, single Oracle_Home, installs successfully. But on rebooting the server, returns a scary entry point message in orb_r.dll, and Oracle Express Service fails to start. When you deinstall Oracle Express, it screws up PATH variable, throwing some apache.exe error, and Oracle HTTP server service not starting. Got the HTTP service going by modifying the oracle_apache.conf, and commenting the modose line. Reinstalling Oracle Express results in same orb_r.dll error. The orb_r.dll is probably some visibroker dll, and is 3.86MB in size, and dated 4/18/2001. Typical, as well as Complete Install, both result in same error.
And this is after I tried installing the OES 6.3.2. The 6.3.2 build when extracted into a new folder under C:, creates the Setup.exe program, but the program refused to run when double clicked. 6.3.2 never installed, and 6.3.4 doesnt work. Anyone...
Thanks,
Steve

Oracle Express and regedit

Hi!
I installed Oracle Express on Windows XP and I want to use PL/SQL Developer (could be any other tool) to develop with pl/sql. But I realize that the Express installation does not creates the usual HOME0 or HOME1 nor ALL_HOMES Oracle entries in the regedit, and I need them so my tool can detect the instance.
Why the Oracle Express does not create these entries in regedit and how can I create them? I don't know which entries I need.
Regards

Hi,
Thank you for your fast response.
RPuttagunta, with the new PL/SQL Developer 7 trial it works fine and the database name XE is found, but with earlier versions like 5.0 (which is what we got in my project) it doesn't work. A workaround I found is to manually create the HOME1 and ALL_HOMES entries in the regedit, taking as a reference an Oracle 9i client installation. My question is if that regedit entries are present in the 10g and future versions, or we will have to patch all the installations.
Legatti, SQL Developer is fine and I liked, but PL/SQL Dev still has some additional features we are used to work with. Anyway I will suggest it to the manager as an alternative to get an upgrade of PL/SQL, since it is free to use.
Thanks & Regards

Authentication Scheme for sample application in Oracle Express

All, I recently installed Oracle Express on linux and I was browsing the sample application and when I look up the Authentication Scheme for this app I get the message
No authentication schemes have been defined. You can create a new authentication scheme starting with the Create Scheme button above
Now when I click "Authentication Status " I see
Application: 100
Method: Authentication Scheme
Details: Uses authentication schemes to control user authentication and all other aspects of session management for your application.
Logout URL: wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.logout?p_this_flow=&APP_ID.&p_next_flow_page_se
ss=&APP_ID.:1
Public Pages: (none)
Action: Manage authentication schemes using the report above.
Yet when I run the app I know it is looking up the data in the demo_users table. What I don't see is where the function custom_auth is defined for this app as the function to call for authenticating users. Can someone point me in the right direction.
Also has anyone upgraded apex in express to 2.2. Any issues?
thanks
Scott.

I think i found it when you are in list view no schemes appear. However, when you switch to detail view then I can see the custom scheme.

From MS Access One-to-Many Form to Oracle Express

Hello, hello,
Firstly, I am new at Oracle and interested to really getting into out, however, I am a little ancy to get going. I'm looking for some sharp direction that could direct me to exactly what I need to do right now and then I can do further study, etc.
I have a MS Access database with many tables, queries, etc. But I set up a fancy form whereby I could scroll to the name (let's say EMPLOYEE) and then I have about 10 different forms (a tabbed interface because there were so many) show up where I could input data about that employee specifically. Then when I scroll to the next person, all of the subforms would change accordingly.
Thus, ultimately, what I would like to do using Oracle Express and APEX is to set up a page where I have a region which will pull a list of employees and act as a menu, then when someone select an employee (i.e., not only me) then all information, from numerous different tables pulls up and is visible, editable and can be added to. There could be a region for addresses, a region for links, for notes, for photos, for a list of articles, or whatever.
I hope you track with what I am looking at. In Access I have numerous tables, then I create a monstrous one-many relationship thingamajiggy and ka-boom, things all fit together in a form, and subforms. All editable by me, but hardly available for anyone else. I know Oracle is the way to go, so...
Can you assist me by explaining what I need to implement in Oracle? I am not clear on JOINs and what's the right one to use, how to adequately connect all of the dots, etc. Do I need to set up fancy queries, create SQL statements or what?
Thanks.

Thanks. I don't think my question is strictly APEX related.
Rather, I am trying to determine how to create a "one-to-many" relationship (to use MS Access terminology) in Oracle Express. And then solve how to add data to them.
I can create a view which links two tables together where I can add data, but I want to be able to be adding data to several tables all linked together from the same primary key. One row per person (or employee) won't handle this, particularly if you want to add more than one row of data about the person in a table.
For example, if I had a restaurant with four employees (a cook, a waitress, a baker and a cleaner), my employees table would only have four rows. But now if I wanted to record the types of desserts the baker could make, that would take up more than one row. Therefore, from the baker, it would have to link to another table where I could input data about the different desserts. Typical one-to-many relationship. But the baker can also make different kinds of bread, thus another table with several rows. Perhaps the baker is so good, I may want to have yet another table for his different supremely delicious and famous pies (apple, pumpkin, pecan, etc.) which is now another table. The options are endless, but they all connect to the baker.
As a result, someone could come to my application and ask what can the baker do, and it will pull up a table of desserts, a table of pies and a table of breads.
Once I figure that out and can link many tables together using one primary key, then I presume I can easily move into the web application aspect. But for now, I am not quite there yet.
If someone can at least direct me as to what this is called in Oracle and give me a little direction, then I will feel more confident in moving forward. Thanks again!

Oracle Express perfomance problem

Hi, I am facing performance issues with following application in Oracle Express using OFA as front end. There are 9 dimensions in cube and one measure. DB size 18-20 GB. geography and time dimension is dense, all other are composite. Leaf level data for one month and one geography is 50k rows only. It is taking more than 1 hour to run following command.
allstat
lmt geography to 'G036'
lmt time to 'DEC06'
value=na
upd
I have to na the data before uploading new data. could someone pls suggest some better way to na the data, which should be faster?
thanks very much.

The fastest method would be to rename your geography and time dimension values
to a temp value (to be removed on your next eif export/import)
And then add them back and load ..
ie
mnt time rename 'DEC06' 'XDEC06'
mnt geography rename 'G036' 'XG036'
update
mnt time add 'DEC06'
mnt geography add 'G036'
" NO Need TO NA Anything .. just load your data
You could try deleting the members instead of the rename .. but this caused
me some problems in the past .. so i found the rename to work better.

Migration of application from Oracle Express 6.3.4 to Essbase 9

I got a requirement to migrate an application from Oracle Express to Essbase.Can any one help me if there is any documentation for migration or else do I have to rebuild a new application in Essbase with the same functionality as in Oracle Express.
Rgrds,
G.K

As far as I am aware there is no migration tool to convert to essbase and you will have to build a new application in essbase.
On a side note this campaign from Oracle back in 1998 amuses me - http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4VEEAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA17&ots=Amg-YO3m5X&pg=PA17#v=onepage&q&f=false
The line "Oracle Express Server slaughtered Arbor Essbase in both load and calculation times and query times" is a classic.
I wonder if Oracle feel the same way now :)
Cheers

ORA-00904 Oracle express 10g

I've downloaded oracle express 10g and am trying to learn application builder. When I build a new application the database used on the last tab gets a ORA-00904. If I drop the table and recreate it the problem goes away until I try to build another application. I suspect this is a bug rather than a feature. Any Ideas anyone

How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.
Edited by: user12301712 on 03-dic-2009 9:46

Hi
During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

How to install Oracle Spacial with Oracle Express Edition 10g?

Hello,
I'm new in Oracle Technology, I just wanted to try Oracle Spatial.
I don't know how to get it so I've installed Oracle Express and followed this tutorial :
http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2009/06/manual-installation-of-spatial-10g.html
They say Jserver, Oracle interMedia and Oracle XML Database have to be installed, but only one of them seems to be set up (XML DB), I can't install the others.
If someone can help me to install Oracle Spatial, it would be nice. Bye.

If you want to use Oracle Express Edition, note that the 11.2 version is available on beta now:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html
Its a while since I've used XE but from what I recall you get the Locator functionality, but not Spatial. That makes sense as XE is free, which Spatial needs to be licensed.
However, you can do an awful lot with Locator. To see if it is setup, just check if you have the MDSYS schema. Then describe the SDO_GEOMETRY type:
describe mdsys.sdo_geometry
If they are both there, then you're in business.
