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

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!

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.
Regards,
Dimitri

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 ....

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 :)

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.

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
Alias /i/ /home/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db/htmldb/images/

Multiple Application Express Installs on one server

What, if any, restrictions / caveats are there for installing multiple Application Express versions on a single server? We have Application Express 2.2 installed and wondering if we can install Application Express 3.0 also.
With 2.2, we have FLOWS_020200, FLOWS_FILES, and APEX_PUBLIC_USER as database users. Version 3.0 will want to create FLOWS_030000, FLOWS_FILES, and APEX_PUBLIC_USER. Any problems with what I expect will be errors on "user already exists" for FLOWS_FILES and APEX_PUBLIC_USER?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I'm really sorry but this is a typo on my part. It should be "You can't have two different APEX versions on the same instance."
Does it mean that if we install ApEx v3 we will have only ApEx v3?Yes. This is exactly what it means. The installation script automatically detect previous installed APEX (or earlier HTML DB ) version, and upgrade it. You can end up with only one version per instance.
Regards,
Arie.

Error ORA-20001 when Creating an Application Express Workspcce

I have a 11.1.0.6.0 Enterprise Edition database running on a Fedora 10 box that was created using dbca. At the time, I did not select Oracle Application Express for installation. However, I can configure APEX and start it with URL http://<host>:8080/apex/apex_admin and log in as ADMIN. Looks like I'm ready to go... Database accounts APEX_PUBLIC_USER, FLOWS_030000 and FLOWS_FILES existed at the time I configured APEX.
Following the 2 Day + Application Express Developer's Guide, I get error "ORA-20001: Unable to create user. ORA-01935: missing user or role name" when I attempt to create a workspace for the demo application. In an attempt to resolve this, I've run dbca again to install Application Express in the database, and I then get "ORA-04063: package body "FLOWS_030000.WWV_FLOWS" has errors: ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "FLOWS_03000.WWV_FLOW" ORA-06512: at line 2". DBA_OBJECTS reports table WWV_FLOWS owned by this user, but no package body of the same name.
Can anyone advise what I need to do to resolve the ORA-20001 error when I attempt to create a APEX workspace, or resolve the ORA-04063 error when I attempt to use dbca to install APEX in the database?
TIA
Jon

Creating HTMLDB DAD for Application Express

Good Morning
I have http server running on port 7777 with PLSQL _mod. I can add DAD's using
the Mod plsql configuration menu
and get data back from procedures in my schema.
I have downloaded and installed Application Express ,its all gone into
FLOWS_02000 schema. It all loaded ok.
I don't seem to have a htmldb DAD set up though.
I tried to configure one using the Mod plsql configuration menu with out success
Is there an application that creates the necessary configuration to get HTMLDB
and http server working together.
Thanks
David Hills

David,
The installation guide (also included in the HTML DB 2.0 distribution) describes how to configure Oracle HTTP Server manually:

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.

Installation of Application Express fails

Hello,
i want to install application express from the companion CD from 10GR2.
The installation of the DB went ok and the DB ist working and accessible.
When i start the installer from the companian CD the DOS-Box appears,
indicating that the universal installer should be startet. Then the box disappears
and nothing else happens.
In the taskmanager there is a javaw.exe for each attempt to start the installation.
It seams that this javaw.exe hangs. I can kill that process.
My system is a W2K server SP4 running on a P4 machine with 1GB RAM
and 200GB HD.
Does anyone know a solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance
Harry Maier

HI,
You can create a new tablespace and use this as the tablespace for the new installation. The upgrade that moves your existing apex objects (workspaces, applications etc) from the old install will still work because it will refer to existing db objects (tables etc) by their names independent of their storage characteristics, just like you would for any other database application.

Oracle application express(html db)

when it applies updates, it always timeout! why?

1. Please tell us your first name and consider putting it in your handle and/or profile as a help to us.
2. Explain what you're trying to accomplish. Those components are installed in the right places when you install Application Express.
