  • Differences between Oracle Personal Edition and Enterprise Edition

    What are the differences between the databases of Oracle Personal Edition and the Oracle Enterprise Edition..?

    I have just looked at the metalink document and see that Oracle are still blatantly lying about the availability of analytical functions.
    We chose standard edition on the basis of this document and were very annoyed to find we could not use analytical functions.
    The document is about 8i. Of course we are all on 9i these days aren't we ?

  • Trying to get Oracle Personal Edition 8i & Developer2000 to work together

    Hi
    Can anyone help me.
    I have installed both Developer 2000 and Oracle Personal Edition 8.1.6 on NT4 in that order. I cannot connect to the database through Developer 2000 and sql prompt. I receive the following erors at the sql prompt, although sql was working originally.
    ORA - 12545: Connect failed because target or host does not exist.
    ORA - 01034: Oracle not available

    Hi,
    Try to run listener manually:

  • De-installing Oracle personal edition

    I've installed Oracle Personal Edition 8.1.6 on a D: drive of an NT 4.0 machine. As it turned out, I really needed to install it on C:. So, I attempted to de-install it from D:. When done with the de-installation using the Universal Installer (and it told me that all the products were removed), I rebooted and proceeded to install on the C: drive. The installer told me that there still was an instance on the D: drive. I attempted to remove all Oracle-related keys from the registry, with no success. There are two services still on the system (listener and the one for the instance). How do I cleanly delete all traces of the previous install?

    first you had to stop all oracle stuff of services then you have to de-install the things. Oracle has one disadvantage is if you remove all stuff from regedit then also it'll give some problem for installation.
    So better you install o.s. again do the installation it'll work prefectly.
    cheers then.

  • Oracle Personal Edition Number Of Connections

    How many connections can Oracle Personal Edition Support? We are looking to create some development test machines where we will need 10-20 connections per test server and we do not want to have to pay 10K+ per CPU for these machines.
    Any idea if we can use Personal Edition to satisfy this need?

    I had this same problem with this same installation on ME. After a smooth installation with PO 8, I suspected spaces in path names, since the 8i install appears to be java based. If you go into windows regedit (Win ME does not read from autoexec.bat), and search for oracle home, and all 'home' paths you have tried specifying in the initial 8i install interface, upon editing your oracle home path, you may find a space character discreetly tucked at the end of that path name. What's more, just correcting your paths through regedit may only temporarily solve your problem. Also search/correct your prompt. A quick verification of this is if, from a dos window, your prompt looks like:
    C:\> _
    (notice the space between the > and _ characters) I think this is either a MS bug, or an image disk install bug, and suspect, after reading of your same problem, it comes from MS.
    Hope this helps,

If yes, then I am facing a problem right at the start of the installation. After specifying the File location path (For source path, the default is 'C:\Program Files\Oracle\STAGE\products.jar'. I have not changed this. For destination path,(oracle home path), I am specifying it as 'C:\Program Files\Oracle'.

  • Problem With Oracle Personal Edition On Windows XP

    I am trying to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition on Windows XP Professional, Installation was successful. But when I try to login through SQL plus it says "ORACLE not available" User Id I used is Scott/Tiger and System Manager.
    Even I checked the services started but some of the Oracle services are still in "starting" staus
    Can any one help me in this?

    Those 'starting' services must switch to 'started' before things will start to happen.
    What are the machine specs? Hopefully you have a decent CPU speed (>500MHz) and amount opf memory (>512M RAM) or things can be unsufferably slow.
    Is there a particularily good reason for using Oracle8i? After all, it is an unsupported and obsolete version of the database.

  • Oracle Personal Edition (disconnected from the network)

    Hello everyone,
    I have oracle PE 10.1.0.2 installed on my laptop (running windows xp pro sp2). I have the laptop connected to the network most of the time. Yesterday, I was trying to access my database while I am in the coffee shop but I couldn't. I was getting a "no listener" error from the application I am using. I took a look at the running services and I found out "OracleDBConsoleorcl" and "OracleServiceORCL" did not start. I tried to start them. But I was getting a type 2 error. tried to reboot. no good
    When I connected my computer to network, I was able to connect to the database from my application and from the enterprise manager.
    I searched this forum and I found out that I need to configure a loopback adaptor if Oracle DB is installed on a DHCP computer. In my case, I am disconnected from the network. Would a loop back adaptor fix the issue? Would it cause any problems when I connect back to network? In another word, would the database listener and OracleServiceORCL services work if I am connected and disconnected from the network?
    Thanks for the help

    I do not have Personal Edition, but if you can a check, make a copy/backup, and then change the entries in $ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config
    $ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config\emoms.properties $ORACLE_HOME\sysman\config\emd.properties
    and any httpd configuration files in that directory.

  • Oracle Personal Edition Install

    I've been trying and trying to install personal edition on Win 98. However, the install process stalls right before it is about to initialize the starter db. It says it cannot copy the files from the source. Possibly because there isn't enough drive space. However, I know there is because I'm able to copy the files myself?? Any help would be greatly apppreciated.

    Try installing ORACLE without creating a starter database. Once the installation is complete, re-start your machine.
    Once the re-start is complete, use the Database assistant to create the database, it worked for me....
