Installing Oracle TEXT and XML DB Components on New Instance

I was told this may be the best place to ask my quesion
I have set up a New Instance or Oracle on a Solaris Unix box that already had Oracle 10g installed.
The instance was created fine, however I need the Oracle Text Component and XML DB Component installed as well.
Those are not installed with this instance. They are installed on the other instance on the box that was setup when oracle was first installed.
How can I add these components to this new instance?
DBCA was not used when the instance was created. The DBA here does not care for this tool.
Thanks

Hi,
the installation of XMLDB is described in the XML manual: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14259/appaman.htm#sthref2372
the installation of Text is described on Metalink in document 280713.1.
A nice document to start is on Metalink, it is document 472937.1. It gives Oracle components and the links how to install the components on different versions of Oracle.

Offline search engine based on Oracle Text and XML SDK?

Hi,
I am pretty new to Oracle Text, so I am not shure if the
question is correct.
We have an intranet, with lots of MS Word, PDF and HTML files.
The site is starting to get out of hand, there is to many
information distributed all over it.
We would need a search engine for these files. The front would
be HTML or XML based on XSQL. The backend, that is the search
engine would look like this: I would store the HTML, PDF and
Word files inf the file system and regularly reload them into
Oracle into BFILE columns. I could user Oracle Text to index the
content and use XDK to make the searching part for it.
Is the Oracle Text feasable?
Every hint would be highly appreciated.

Is the Oracle Text feasable?You can store HTML, PDF and Word documents in the file system or
in a database column and make it searchable using Oracle Text.
You can write a JSP or PSP that executes the SQL statement and
then displays the result. Take a look at the Indagine sample
code (Java - it's a little bit old: version 8.1.5) or the "Text
search with PL/SQL Server Pages" notes. All available from
otn.oracle.com/products/text -> sample code.

Difference between Oracle Text and XML DB?

We are currently storing XML's in Oracle text. I understand that XML DB is faster to retrieve XML's based on conditional search within XML.
Is there a place I could find the difference between these two?

Text offer xpath like searching, assuming that you don't need to worry about little things like namespaces :). Oracle XML DB offers native XML storage, indexing and searching fully compliant with rellevant XML standards.

How to install Oracle text in 10g database.

Hi ,
I need to install Oracle text in a 10g database which is a pre-requisite for Application express 3.1.1.I checked for the user CTXSYS user in the database and i did not find that.
Thanks in advance

If you dont see CTXSYS user, you have to use the OUI to install the Oracle text. You have to connect as sys to do it. See the metalink post below,
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:1539928194117127807::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,275689.1,1,1,1,helvetica

Installing Oracle Text in 9i

I'm attempting to create the neccessary object for the CTXSYS user and am missing the LIBCTXX*.* file. Where do I find it?

"you don't need to install special software for oracle text. just connect to ctxsys as user and ctxsys as password."
That is true... if you created your database under some conditions (using the assintent, for instance)
If you want to install Oracle Text manually on 9i you can follow [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/win.920/a95491/config.htm]
or, better yet: Manual Installation, Deinstallation of Oracle Text Release 9.2 [ID 275689.1] published in My Oracle support (formerly Metalink)

Please any body help, for the installation of oracle forms and reports.
I have a formatted Windows 7 Ultimate
Where I have installed Adobe Acrobat Reader
IIS server from windows installer
Now I want to know the exact procedure so that i can run the forms and report in my machine.

Oracle Text and Workspace Manager

Has anybody incoroporated Workspace Manager and Oracle text together. How is the Oracle Text index handled? Can users in different workspaces submit documents, have them indexed and be the only ones to see those documents?

Hi,
I do not have much experience with Oracle text, and am unsure exactly how it works. As such, I would suggest to file a TAR requesting this information.

Oracle Text and Custom item type

I have a custom item type defined that has custom attributes. With Oracle Text disabled, I can use a custom search to find these items either by their standard attributes (name,description, etc.) or their custom attributes. However, as soon as I enable Oracle Text (and allow the indexing process to complete), I can no longer locate these items in a search.
I assume that I need to do something to tell Oracle Text to index these types of items, but could not find anything in documentation. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Also, assuming we get around the above issue, if I have Oracle Text enabled, does this mean I will not be able to find these items after they are created until the next scheduled index update? Is there away around this besides killing Oracle Text?
Rgds/Mark M.
Portal 9.0.2.6

The indexes need to be synchronised for the items to be searched and returned. Hence until the next scheduled index update, the item will not be returned. To explicitly udpate the indexes, run the procedure in the portal database connected as the schema owner.

Oracle Text and TREC

Hello,
I am new to SQL, Oracle, and Oracle Text and need to use Oracle Text to index about 2GB of files (located on the filesystem), each of which contain multiple documents. These documents are all in SGML format with the relevant data I need being inbetween DOCNO and TEXT tags.
So far I understand I need to create a table similar to the following...
create table "DocTable" ("Docno" number, "Text" text)
...and then either use a CONTEXT or CTXCAT index, but im not sure which.
In general im not too sure what to do. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks :)

it actually depends upon what u r searching for
A file datastore is works as below
1) a location where all your files are stored - say /mydocs
so you need to create a preference
begin
ctx_ddl.create_preference('COMMON_DIR','FILE_DATASTORE');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('COMMON_DIR','PATH','/mydocs');
end;
now create a table where you list down all the file names, the doc id is something for your reference. This can be any number which you prefer. But has to be unique, as this a pkey.
create table mytable(id number primary key, docs varchar2(2000));
insert into mytable values(111555,'first.txt');
insert into mytable values(111556,'second.txt');
commit;
Now indexing, which ctaully fetches the documents from the file location
create index myindex on mytable(docs)
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('datastore COMMON_DIR');
now the queries on the table will be using CONTAINS operator - as you have created a CONTEXT index.
So , you need to fist determine what kind of queries you need to make. On the basis of that you can create the index.

Installing oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host

Is it possible to install Oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host and have the application switch between 10g and 11g? and how would the 10g and 11g be installed?

Thanks for your reply.
Typeically if 10g is installed in /home/roacle/product/10.2.0, are you saying that for 11g, it would be /home/oracle/product/11.0.0 ?
How about switching the application? Does changing the ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variable setting enough ? Let's say from
ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1 to /home/oracle/product/11.0.0/client_1

Get into a time machine and go back about 20 years. ;-)
You are asking about something hopefully no one has done for a decade ... installing desupported software on a desupported database on a desupported operating system on, perhaps, some antique server.
Perhaps someone else kept their notes from back in the Jurassic period but mine were in a recycle bin many many years ago.
If you really wish to do this I suspect you are going to be stuck doing it the way we did back then ... read the docs accompanying the installation files.
