Installing Application Express in Windows XP

Does anyone have a better installation guide to setup Applicaiton Express in Windows XP? When I run the script it has been asking me to type in the value that I do not what is the value and failed me.
Does it really matter whether I am running IIS in my Windows XP?
Ming Man

It's explained in the installation guide, but I can imagine you find the guide confusing.
After you logged on as sys (sysdba) you run the installation script on the database:
@apexins password tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
one of the steps after that is copying the images, which is from the <installdir>/apex/images to <oracle_base>/<oracle_home>/apache/apache/images .
There are additional steps though, and they depend on the version of your DB or Application server, and whether it's a new installation or an upgrade. So, check b32468.pdf in your apex installation files :)

Problems installing Application Express - Help Please

Hi
I have the personal edition of oracle and i have a database instance set up in entreprise manager. Now I'm trying to install application express to the database via SQL Plus. I run into two problems
1. It says in the document that you need to log into SQL as SYS rather than SYSMAN, when I do log in as SYS i get the error message saying that I need to choose either SYSDBA or SYSOPER so I do rather than normal but I need a username/password to log in and I don't know what Username/password they are referring to. I tried a couple of usernames and passwords already and have been unsuccessful.
2. So instead of logging in as SYS, I logged into the SQL Plus as SYSMAN. I load the apexin.sql file onto the SQL Plus and I push on execute. The it asks me to enter the 5 things, so i enter "password, SYSAUX, SYSAUX, temp, /i/" and i get the error message "SP2-0916: Scheme not supported"
I have tried several times already. I am working off a toshiba Satellite P200 and it is windows Vista. What am I do wrong please HELP!
Carol

Hi there I'm still running into some trouble here
When I am logged into my Enterprise Manager as SYS on my laptop
I scroll to the bottom to open up iSQL plus and once I'm in, I get to the iSQL Plus Role Connection and there is 3 choices - 1) Normal 2) SYSOPER 3) SYSDBA
I can log into normal with SYSMAN but when i choose SYS, it tells me that I must choose either SYSOPER or SYSDBA
If I choose either of those, I get another login pop up saying that I need to log into the DBA system, but I don't know what username/password they are referring to. I tried logging into iSQL plus and tried executing sys/<sys password> as sysdba but it doesn't work. Please help!

If the AX is working properly, it should not show up in your list of available networks (since it is "joined" to your router). Have you unplugged and replugged your AX? Unplugged and, after a minute, replugged your router? Do you have MAC address filtering enabled on your router? (if so, disable it to see if the AX works ... it will broadcast its MAC address to the router, and you can add it.) Is your firewall turned on? Turn it off and see if you can access Airtunes. You will have to open a port in your firewall if that is the case.
The AX should have the same network name as your router the wireless tab. When it shows up, what name is it broadcasting?

Installing Application Express

hi all,
I followed the instructions of installing Oracle Application Express on Oracle DB 10g R2 for Windows 2003. When I reached to the following step:
@htmldbins password sysaux sysaux temp /i/
it prompted me the following on the command line:
enter value for 6:
What is the reason for that prompt?
By the way, I just pressed ENTER and it completed the installation successfully.

Ahmed - You left off the sixth argument. From the Installation Guide:
The following examples demonstrate running htmldbins.sql and passing these arguments when the target database is Oracle Database 10g release 1
(10.1):
Local installation:
sqlplus "sys/syspass as sysdba"
@htmldbins password SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/ none
Using a connect string:
sqlplus "sys/syspass@10g as sysdba"
@htmldbins password SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/ 10g

Help with installing application express

that´s my problem
I install oracle application express in virtual machine and when I acces yo the web
I got
wwv_flow.app_not_found_footer_err
please some helps .. only I know the version of the owa is not geater
the version of APEX is 3.2
and I was looking in other pages on internet and tells that i have to
Confirm the PL/SQL Web Toolkit version is 10.1.2.0.6 or greater
my version Web Toolkit version is 10.1.2.0.4 so I think could be the problem ,
I all ready update the version but the problem is the same

Hello,
Did you already look in your log of the apex installation. Are you sure everything ran ok and you didn't have any errors?
As far as I know it's or the owa package which is not correct or an incomplete install of APEX.
Did you try to recompile the invalid objects already? @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
If all of that doesn't work I would try to reinstall APEX.

KB2918614 Breaks MDT2012 Update 1 Task Sequence "Install Application" Items on Windows 7 deployments

Consider the following scenario:
You have a WDS deployment environment for your enterprise running on Windows Server 2008 R2.
You use MDT 2012 Update 01 to create a Windows 7 Task Sequence for workstation deployment.
The task sequence has an "Install Application" task to install Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1 RU4 MP1b.
You either refresh your reference build to incorporate KB2918614 or you publish the update via WSUS and use the Install Updates task in the task sequence prior to the "Install Application" task to install the hotfix.
In this scenario, the "Install Application" task starts but never completes. The Symantec installation executable is never called and does not show up in Task Manager. All subsequent "Install Application" tasks exhibit the same behavior.
No error messages are generated. Eventually the Task Sequence itself times out and moves on to the next task.
If you remove update KB2918614 from your reference build or unapprove it from your WSUS server, all "Install Application" tasks in the task sequence execute correctly.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issues with deployments? My hunch is that the problem is not specific to the application being installed, and it may also be a problem for environments using SCCM to install Windows 7. I have not had a chance to explore
this more, so I kept my scenario to the facts that I have directly observed.
Thanks,

Quite the few incorrect assumptions, but thank you for your input. I disagree with your methodology and irrelevant conclusions.
Problem is quite clearly seen under easily reproducible conditions, which according to your description was not correctly proscribed. No one ever said the patch did not install correctly.
Whether the root cause is that mainstream third party applications are utilizing Microsoft solution accelerator proscribed methods that a privately reported vulnerability implicated as harmful; and thus the aforementioned patch changed the
expected behaviour to the detriment of mainstream certified applications in an unattended environment is at fault is up for discussion. Jamal's experience implicates the overall method in not only MDT but also SCCM so there stands a reasonable chance
that the problem exhibits on a further scale beyond the MDT environment.
However, as has been documented on a real world basis in the context of actual running environments (in which many do indeed still run Windows 7, much to all our chagrin and your self-declared shock) the issue still exists, and we must decline
your proposed solution as being appropriate to the described scenario. Your response clearly does not duplicate nor even attempt to recreate the problem space, If you had read clearly you would have seen we had already inserted a reboot in between the Windows
Update step in the TS and the "Install Application" step. Of course there are many other potential variables, hence why one should be quite careful about declaring an explicit problem or an explicit solution.
I believe Mike Niehaus clearly indicated the next step, and Jamal has confirmed the immediate workaround. I will encourage my clients to raise the issue through their EA channel.

I had the exact same problem on 11g. I tried several installs and cleaned up after each failed attempt...
I ended up installing 3.1 and then running the patch for 3.1.2 which seems to have worked.... the FULL install of 3.1.2 has some script errors and would NOT install "fresh".
I'm still having configuration issues though... XDB asks for a password, and then I get a URL doesn't exist ....

Trouble Installing SQLServer Express on Windows 2008

I am trying to install Sql Server Express 2008 and I've been having trouble doing this simple procedure. My problem started because I need to install Sql Server Express 2008 on drive D of my Windows 2008 Server. I just modified the path displayed
to the D: drive (as opposed to C:). The rest of the path was untouched. So it created this string: "D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\" (omit the "" quotes). Unfortunately, it did not go as planned.
The setup generated an error: "The INSTALLSHAREDDIR command line value was not specified. This value must be specified when the INSTALLSHAREDWOWDIR command line value is specified ". So this simple task was starting to get unnecessarily
complicated. I then specified the command line: "SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU /INSTALLSHAREDDIR="D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\". This produced another error: "The timestamp marker on log files has not been set. The
timestamp must be set prior to it being used for the first time.". Wow! I'm stunned and perplexed as to the reason why I need to be made aware of this, or anybody. Regardless, I proceeded to create a command line: "SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU
/INSTALLSHAREDDIR="D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\" /TIMESTAMP=”20140507_120600”. Again, this generated an error pertaining to the timestamp. How can I resolve this?

Hi sreyes,
According to your description, indeed, this error will occurs if you select an install direction different from the default one (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server). I recommend you use the default path as shared feature directory. Or you can use the
following ways to install SQL server 2008 on another drive (D:\Microsoft SQL Server\).
1.Run the setup, select all the features you want to install. DO NOT change the install folder, press next;
2.When you see the screen displaying the configuration summary, check the config.ini path, then copy/paste the file on another drive/folder;
3.Edit this file to set correct values for INSTALLSHAREDDIR & INSTALLSHAREDWOWDIR (you can set D:\Microsoft SQL Server and D:\Microsoft SQL Server (x86)).
4.Run setup from the command line : SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe /q /action=Install /configurationfile=<Path to your custom .ini>

Installing 10g Express Edition ( Windows XP Pro )

Can anyone tell me if i can install this edition with the partitioning option or indeed if it is available with the Express edition.
I have successfully installed but if i try to create a partitioned table an error message is displayed ' partitioning option not enabled'.

Partitioning isn't supported in anything less than enterprise edition.

Can you install Application Express on DB XE

I know there is a message saying that APEX questions should go to the appropriate forum. But from my experience APEX will not install on XE. there is a message to the effect that it is not installable/supported.
Can someone advise if it is or is not installable?

Thanks, I wondered what the offered development tools
were, I hadn't actually tried them. So the
implication is that I can use and older version of
Apex, or if I want to use the new one, either install
full 10g or use the workarounds unsupported?
Correct?From my point of view: Correct.
I suspect I will be quite happy with the old Apex for
now.It's not that old and there are some notes on the APEX site about the things you have to take care between APEX 2.0 (at least that's in the documentation) and 2.2.

Uninstall/install oracleXE express problems on windows vista business

Hi,
I installed oracle express on windows vista.. no problem. Then I installed oracle application server... now oracle db web interface was not working (firewall was off). So I tried to uninstall/re-install oracle express.... but now it does not successfully install... in fact the installer just hangs when it is trying to initialise the services.. also it looks like the services were not uninstalled?? any ideas/help would be great I have tried uninstall/reinstall several times all with no success....

there are several similar threads on XE forum - http://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?threadID=&q=uninstall+problems+windows+vista&objID=f251&dateRange=all&userID=&numResults=15&rankBy=10001

Can I use existing 10g iAS install with Application Express?

I apologize if this has been addressed somewhere else, but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer yet.
I have a 10g DB installed on machine A, and have been following the instructions to install Application Express. Instead of installing another instance of HTTP_Server (from the companion CD) on machine A, I have machine B with a full 10g iAS install on it (discoverer, portal, infrastructure, etc). I would like to use machine B as the front end to access htmldb. Machine B has 2 oracle homes, one for the infrastructure and one for the BI tools/portal stuff. Which one do I configure for htmldb? From reading in this forum I think I can use the dads.conf file instead of the marvel.conf file (which doesn't exist) to add the pls/htmldb info, but I can't figure out which one to edit. I probably have something else wrong somewhere, but this would help narrow things down. Currently when I go to the following url http://machineb:7778/pls/htmldb I get "503 Service Temporarily Unavailable".
Thanks in advance for any help.
Rhonda

Sure, you can use the Application Server, no need to install another one.
You would add the configuration to the BI tools/portal stuff Oracle Home, not the infrastructure.
You don't need the marvel.conf explicitly (but this is installed per default when you install the http server from the 10g companion CD).
You could just add the DAD configuration to the dads.conf.
To make it a bit simpler I would do the following:
1) remove the entries for /pls/htmldb from your current dads.conf (if they exist).
2) follow the instructions here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_useoas10g.html
And use the following for the contents of the file marvel.conf (make sure to change it accordingly for your environment (changes to make are bold):
AddType text/xml xbl
AddType text/x-component htc

I can't get Application Express and OBIEE to both work on my laptop

Hello,
I had just installed and configured OBIEE on my laptop where I had successfully installed Application Express 3.0. Both were working , however, I was having an issue creating a ODBC connection with the "SH" schema. Later I had realised this OBIEE problem was actually do to the fact that the password for "SH" had to be changed in SQLPlus so that it matched with what was in the sh connection pool. When that was corrected, I no longer could log into Application Express.
Right after I noticed that my Application Express login page was coming up "Page not found" I noticed that I could not start my "OracleXETNSListener" without stopping "OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener" and even when I did get "OracleXETNSListener" running I could not bring up the Application Express login page.
I just don't understand how changing the password to the schema "sh" for OBIEE had some how changed the network connection to the Application Express login page.
I hope I can find some brilliant networking guru to help me with this problem. I really would like both OBIEE and Application Express to be working on my laptop running Windows XE.
Thanks in advance.
Linda

You probably have a conflict in ORACLE_HOME's or perhaps a conflict in the ports between your two HTTP servers. Does APEX work when all BIEE processes are stopped, including the other database? You might not want to have 2 databases on that machine as it's a huge waste of resources, so you might think about pointing BIEE at XE. You could install APEX in the 10g database, but then you have to make sure the App Server with BIEE contains mod_plsql (which it probably doesn't). If I had it to do from the beginning, I would install 11.1 and run APEX and BIEE out of the same DB. 11.1, like XE, can use the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (EPG), plus it has APEX 3.x installed by default.
