Install Oracle XE on the same machine as Oracle EE

Hi all,
I have a version of Oracle 11g EE installed on my pc, but I would like to check out the Oracle XE for educational purposes.
I've read that it is possible to run both on one machine, but I couldn't find more info on cofiguring it with the Oracle EE listener . So both versions of Oracle would work.
Can anyone point me to some docs/ tutorials or give me some steps to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Cleo

Do not worry too much about the Listener - XE can use (and will register itself) with the existing Listener. The only potential issue is that the existing Listener may not support http clients for EPG connectivity (used for running XE's Apex application and IDE). But that is easily configured.
The first thing to determine is whether the XE instance starts up. And if not, why not.
If you want to start XE manually, you can do that via the console. You will however need to set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID environment variables - use sqlplus, logon using +"/ as sysdba"+ and issue the startup command.
With this approach you will get interactive feedback of the startup - or failure to startup.
Alternatively, you need to start the XE instance via the Service Manager control panel applet and then find the XE's alert log to see why the startup failed.
Without knowing the error it throws at startup, it would be very difficult to diagnose the cause of the startup failure.
PS. There is however very little reason to use XE for "practise" when you already have EE installed.

  • How to install forms 6i on the same machine oracle8i installed

    I have oracle8.1.6 release 2 installed on microsocft windows 98. How do I installed forms 6i on the same machine. when I installed forms6i, it has overwritten the resgistry settings and I cannot run database any more. Please give me some ideas how to install all these on the same machine on windows 98 , operating system DOS.

    You have to install Forms6i on a different Oracle_Home not Default_Home, which I believe is where you installed Oracle8i.

  • Anyone install 9ias on a the same machine as 9i DB?

    If anyone has had any success in performing the install of 9ias
    on a machine that has a clean install of the 9i DB please
    provide some insite to the process.
    TIA!

    Yes, I found two ways:
    1st:
    Install Oracle 8i Rel 3, then Oracle 9iAS and after this upgrade
    the Oracle 8i Rel to Oracle 9iDB
    2nd:
    Install first Oracle 9i DB, the install Oracle 9i AS by using
    the installer of Oracle 9i DB (!!! very important !!!), you will
    get only the Enterprise Edition to install, but no matter :-)
    Cancel the Assistance which will come up (they will not work),
    after the Oracle 9i AS Software is installed, you have to
    disable the spfile from Oracle 9i DB and use the init-file, but
    you have to add the parameter O7_Dictionary... = true and
    restart the DB, after this you can use the Portal Assistance and
    so on (the reason to add the paramter O7_Dictionary... is, that
    the Oracle 9i DB don't know anymore the syntax "connect
    internal", but the Assistance of 9iAS will us this syntax)
    Lot of fun with 9iAS :-)

  • Issue while installing TimesTen on the same machine as the Oracle DB.

    Hi,
    I am new to the TimesTen(TT) and facing the issue of installing TimesTen on the same machine as the Oracle DB(this is our project requirement ). I am trying to install on Solaris 32bit machine with 64GB RAM. When i installed only TT there is no issue. But I am not able to installed if I installed Oracle DB and after that I installed TimesTen on same machine.
    Further if I tried to installed the TT with less size i.e.128MB along with oracle DB on same machine it installed successfully . But when i tried TimesTen with 16GB size it doesn't installed successfully along with oracle DB. Also, I tried to installed only TimesTen with size 16GB it installed without any error.
    Could you please let me know what could be the possible reason for the above behavior.
    Also i read in some threads in the same forum mentioning that "it is not recommend to installing TimesTen on the same machine as the Oracle DB as they can contend for resources (memory and CPU). Could you please elobrate more on this what kind of issues can possibly occur in this kind of scenario.
    Please let me know in case more information is required.
    Thanks in advance !!!
    Regards,
    Sanjay

    Can you please explain what you mean by 'install' in this context? Memory size is not an installation time option with TimesTen. It sounds to me like you mean 'am not able to configure a TimesTen database to use xxx MB/GB of memory' rather than 'unable to install TimesTen'?
    With a 32-bit operating system the largest TimesTen database you will be able to create is 2 GB. If you need a larger TimesTen database then you need to run 64-bit TimesTen on a 64-bit OS.
    It general it really isn't a good idea to run TimesTen on the same machine as the Oracle database. Perhaps you can share what your overall objectives are? WHat are you looking to achieve by using TimesTen? If we understand that we can give better advice.

  • Install Oracle Application Server on the same machine with Oracle Database

    Hello!
    I have already have installed on my laptop the oracle Database 10g, and i want to install on the same machine Oracle Application Server; can I do that? After i look on some threads on this forum I understand that all I have to do is to change the default port 1521 of the database to antoher ..let's say 1523...how can I change the port? what files do i have to modify? Oracle Application server can work in good conditions with Oracle XE or I will have the same problem?
    My SO is Windows XP Professional SP II, all updates, 512RAM, 2Ghz-CPU
    Thanks!

    Well, you'll have some problems to run simultaneously Database and AS with 512 Mb...
    Apart from that, you don't need to start two listeners, you can use just one (the highest version) for both DBs.
    If, for any reason, you want to use two, you can change the port within LISTENER.ORA file, normally in ORACLE_HOME\network\admin.

  • Running Tuxedo8.0 on oracle 8.1.6 and oracle 10.2.0.2.0 on the same machine

    Hello,
    I have oracle 8.1.6 64 bit and oracle 10.2.0.2.0 64 bit
    running on the same hp UX 11i 64-bit machine
    I have installed Tuxedo 8.0 32bit on the same machine.
    I have a working tuxedo 8.0 environment running against the 8.1.6 oracle
    database
    in the Tuxedo .../udataobj/RM file I have for the 8.1.6 environment the string
    Oracle_XA:xaosw:-L${ORACLE_HOME}/lib -lclntsh
    In oracle 8.1.6 home there are directories lib and lib64
    but in oracle 10.2.0.2.0 home there are directories
    lib and lib32
    what string should I use for the oracle 10.2.0.2.0?
    Oracle_XA:xaosw:-L${ORACLE_HOME}/lib32 -lclntsh maybe???
    Must the string in the RM file for oracle always begin with the string
    Oracle_XA?
    If so is, possible at all to run the the binaries of one Tuxedo installation
    against two different databases versions because the RM strings are similar in
    the beginning but in 8.1.6 refer to the lib directory and in 10.2.0.2.0 refer
    to the lib32 directory ?
    Or do I need to have two installations of tuxedo8.0 binaries on the machine?
    I have tried to for 10.2.0.2.0 the line (the Ora10_XA is only a try...)
    Ora10_XA:xaosw:-L${ORACLE_HOME}/lib32 -lclntsh
    in the RM file but when starting tuxedo I get:
    $ cat /mnt04/edu/ressu/bin/xa_NULL06092006.trc
    ORACLE XA: Version 10.2.0.1.0. RM name = 'Oracle_XA'.
    111035.16584.0:
    xaogetmod: XAER_INVAL; Invalid xa_info string.
    Any comments on the matter appreciated.
    rgds,
    Jyri

    Jyri,
    The information before the first colon in the $TUXDIR/udataobj/RM file is
    only used by the buildtms, buildserver, and buildclient programs to find the
    line corresponding to the value of the -r option, so it should be OK to
    specify different values for Oracle 8.1.6 and Oracle 10.2.0.2.0.
    The information specfied in the OPENINFO string in the *GROUPS section of
    the TUXCONFIG file must be of the form
    OPENINFO="ORACLE_XA:Oracle_XA+...."
    The strings ORACLE_XA and Oracle_XA cannot be changed, except for case. The
    "...." can be replaced with parameters such as
    SqlNet=NAMESesTm=100+LogDir=.+MaxCur=5 or whatever is used in your
    applicatino. The "xaogetmod: XAER_INVAL: Invalid xa_info string" error you
    are getting is due to an incorrect OPENINFO parameter.
    If you are running a 32-bit version of Tuxedo you must link with the
    ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib32 library on 10gR2; if you are using a 64-bit version of
    Tuxedo you must link with ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib library. The procedure is
    similar for Oracle 8 except that it seems that the lib directory may be the
    32-bit library in that version of Oracle.
    32-bit and 64-bit binaries cannot be mixed under a single TUXDIR, but it is
    possible to use multiple RMs or multiple versions of the same RM on the same
    machine.
    The syntax of the open string and the list of libraries to link with is
    specified in the "Oracle Database Application Developer's Guide -
    Fundamentals" in the "Developing Applications with Oracle XA" chapter.

  • How to install iFS and iAS on the same machine?

    I have successfully installed iFS on a Windows NT 4 machine. Now, I would like to install iAS Enterprise Edition on the same machine. The installation guide for iAS says that I should first deinstall all products from the default ORACLE_HOME. I have not found a clue as to what to do if I want to keep the software already installed.
    Would it work if I tried (after installing iAS) re-install iFS using different ORACLE_HOME directory?
    Is there a white paper or any other document that would clear up the issues involved in installing Oracle products in ORACLE_HOME?
    Thanks a lot,
    Marek

    You can install IAS on the same machine that Oracle and IFS are on. Install IAS into a new Oracle Home (i.e. D:\IAS).
    This worked for me.
    I am still waiting to hear how (look for my post about 20 below yours) how to configure IFS to use the Apache Web Server that is part of IAS.
    Good Luck.
    Maybe one of these days Oracle will create an IAS discussion forum. This is my third request and I haven't heard anything back from them yet.

    You can install or mount both DB and OBIEE on same machine, but check out the disk space and memory needed should be more to accomodate both.

  • Is it ok to install Report developer suite on the same machine?

    Hello All,
    Recently I have upgraded my Oracle Forms 5.0 to Form 6i.
    Now I want same process with my reports.
    Our current reports version is 3.1.
    1) Is it possible to upgrdae report 3.1 to report 6i?
    2) I have installed my form 6i developer suite in window XP. Is it ok to install Report developer suite on the same machine?
    3) if answer of 2 is yes, Do I need to install in another home?
    Please note: My main goal is to upgrade reports in 10g.
    But I think we can not upgrdae report 3.1 to 10g directly. So I am going 3.1 to 6i and then go for 10g.

  • Can I install two independent instances of Thunderbird on the same machine?

    It is required to install two instances of Thunderbird on the same machine, each with its own account(s), Profiles folder(s) and sign-on password, so that each of two users can securely use Thunderbird at different times..
    How can this be achieved?
    Thanks,
    NMB1

    The simplest method is to install Thunderdird normally from an admin account. The two or more users then use ordinary none admin accounts. Thunderbird will be available to each user and each OS account has a separate Thunderbird profile, so each user has effectively totally separate Thunderird accounts and passwords.

  • Can we have BusinessObjects 4.0 and 4.1 both installed on the same machine

    Can we have BusinessObjects 4.0 and 4.1 (tool Clients) both installed on the same machine? Why? Why not?

    4.0 and 4.1 are incremental upgrades hence both on the same machine are not possible.
    Though u can use 4.1 client tools to login to both 4.1 and 4.0 servers.
    3.1 and 4.0/4.1 together is very much possible on the other hand.

  • Install 2 SAP BPC 7.0 MS SP4 in the same machine.

    Hello,
    I want to know if itu2019s possible to install 2 SAP BPC 7.0 MS SP4 in the same machine.
    I think that is impossible because the Osoft is unique and the COM+ is unique too. For the IIS and SQL I know that you can have more than one instance, but those two I know I can't.
    Please, can someone confirm this?.
    But if it's possible, how can I do this?
    Best regards.
    Pablo Mortera.

    Hi Pablo
    As per Nilanjan's post, I also don't understand why you want to do this,
    Do you want to install 2 different instances of SAP BPC on the same Windows server or possibly two seperate virtual servers on a physical host ?
    but none the less, in theory you can do it.
    You will need to create two different websites in IIS and when you do the installation make sure that you select the correct IIS web site, so that it doesnt attempt to recreate the virtual directory on the same IIS web site again during the second installation
    Kind Regards
