Is there a chance for 10g this week?

Well, is there a chance to get the 10g Database for Linux this week?? Oracle said 10g Software will be out this year... that would be great because I am on holidays at the moment and this is exactly the very correct time to learn...

I was talking to an Oracle rep last month and I joshed them about this. Basically, Oracle perceives no great demand from its customers for the 10G database. There are a lot of customers out there who are still running 8i (consider the posters to this site): if these people haven't made the transition to 9i in the last two years they are hardly likely to be gagging for 10g.
Oracle have released the 10G software for which there is customer demand - App Server (because 9iAS is a bag of spanners) and JDev (because Java is a fast moving environment and there's lots of new, sought-after functionality in the new version).
But Oracle's database software, even at 8i, is both highly stable and richly featured. The introduction of Regular Expressions and the MODEL clause for SQL might excite us technical types but it's not much of a business case. Apparently most of the companies that want the self-managing functionality are in the Beta test and so have it already.
In short, 10G database is unlikely to see the light of day before the end of February.
Cheers, APC

  • Is there any way to remove this week's automatic software/ firmware updates

    I installed 4 or 5 of the automatic updates this week and have been having several problems since. First i was having problems booting but resolved this from the start disk. Then I was recieving a message saying that the superdrive firmware update was wasnt needed for any hardware on my computer even though i have a superdrive, so i deleted that....
    Anyways now I cant seem to use my pro tools l.e. audio recording program. It just wont start up.
    Is there any way to go through and remove all of these new updates to see if that resolves the conflict so i dont have to reinstall os x?

    Hello t:
    A direct answer - no. I recommend to everyone that they have a good retreat/backup strategy. I make bootable clones of my iMacs on an external firewire drive using a little program called SuperDuper ($28 at www.shirt-pocket.com).
    If you decide to retreat, I would use the archive and install approach.
    Before you do that, I would run repair disk from your software install DVD to see if that addresses your problems.

  • Is there a replacement for 10g $ESBREQUEST variable in Mediator 11g?

    In SOA ESB 10g, I have used $ESBREQUEST variable for data enrichment. I have used it the following way:
    <xsl:param name="ESBREQUEST"/>
      <xsl:template match="/">
      <top:AffDataSyncWipCollection>
      <top:AffDataSyncWip>
      <top:recordId>
      <xsl:value-of select="concat($ESBREQUEST/s3:AccountField,$ESBREQUEST/s3:Code)"/>
      </top:recordId>
      <top:acctField>
      <xsl:value-of select="$ESBREQUEST/s3:AccountField"/>
      </top:acctField>
    However, we are migrating to SOA Mediator 11g now, and for the same code, I get the following error:
    ORAMED-01201:[Error in transform operation]Error occurred while transforming payload using "xsl/AcctCodeSegmentExistsResponse_To_AffDataSyncWipCollection.xsl" for target part "AffDataSyncWipCollection".Possible Fix:Review the XSL or source payload. Either the XSL defined does not match with the payload or payload is invalid. Cause:XML-22036: (Error) Cannot convert result tree fragment to NodeSet.
    Would anyone be able to help me how to fix this issue in Mediator 11g?
    I have read that data can be accessed using $initial.request variable. Could anyone provide detailed steps please?
    Thanks much and any white paper or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

    May be you are looking on polling ability of DB Adapter which is definitely an option but I always suggest to use Oracle GoldenGate for such use cases.

  • Adobe LR4 Classroom in a Book on sale for $10 this week

    If this has already been posted, I apologize.
    Adobe Press put the LR4 Classroom in a Book on its Weekly Special.  It really is $10, because they are not charging for freight.  The book is normally $40.
    As a bonus, at the end of the purchase price, is a link to 3 eBook formats.  I elected to download the .pdf because it will be a great searchable reference.

  • My uncle sent me a factory unlocked iphone 3gs from US and sent it to me to India. but when i inserted a sim ,it said that my simcard is not combatible. is there any chance to solve this problem. the phone was bought from a apple reseller.

    it worked in US with a sprint sim card. i am very sure that it wasnt jailbroken. then how this happened. plz explain me what i should do

    A: There is no such thing as an unlocked iPhone 3Gs in the United States. ALL iPhone 3Gs's sold in the US are locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones, therefore it is not legitimately unlocked.
    B: Sprint is a CDMA network as others have mentioned. They do NOT use SIM cards. The iPhone 3Gs will NEVER work on Sprint. Ever. It's not physically possible.
    Either your Uncle misunderstood or he was mislead. Send it back and tell him to get his money back. Buy an iPhone in India from a supported carrier.

  • Is there a way for converting this Photoshop drop shadow to CSS box shadow?

    Here's my PSD: http://d.pr/f/ML9l
    Here are the specs:
    Color: #3b5c7f
    Angle: 90 degrees
    Distance: 2px
    Size: 4px
    Contour: Linear
    Here's what I've come up with so far, and though quite similar, it is not exactly the same thing:
    http://jsbin.com/akuleg/1/

    Are you a Creative Cloud member? With the recent Photoshop update, you can use the tool "Copy CSS"
    It copies the style to the clipboard and you can paste it into your code. Here is what your file generated:
    .Shape_5 {
      border-radius: 3px;
      background-color: rgb( 228, 224, 223 );
      box-shadow: 0px 2px 4px 0px rgb( 59, 92, 127 );
      position: absolute;
      left: 56px;
      top: 123px;
      width: 287px;
      height: 54px;
      z-index: 2;
    Hope this helps!

  • IPad upgrade to version 7.0 is the biggest misunderstanding. I know companies sending broadcasts to their staff requesting no installation of this programm upgrade. Unfortunately I have installed the upgrade. Is there a chance to cancel this installation?

    I do not like the Notes page. Previos one was much easier to read and see when typing. Keyboard is also "pale". Installing programm version 7.0.0 was my biggest mistake. Moreover web pages needed to be refreshed because everything on the screen stops. Sometimes iPad needs total restart.
    Such cases did not take place with vesion 6.

  • There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download.

    There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download. We watch these each week, and I have checked to be sure that there was actually an episode this week, and there was.

    Under other "sync-able" players, there's usually the "Sync only checked items" radio button. Not for the 2.0 Apple TV. There's no option, but acts as though that option ("sync only, etc...") has been selected. Figured it out after an hour of walking back and forth from my Mac to the TV. Argh.
    Try it. De-select the shows, sync the AppleTV and look under the "TV Shows" and the one's you've unchecked will not be there.

  • Is there any chance to use the iMac additionally to the Cinema Display as an external display for the MacBook,

    I do have a MacBook 13" connected to the Cinema Display and this works fine. As I do also an old iMac which I do not use any more, is there any chance to use this iMac as an additional monitor next to the Cinema Display. I would be great to have both of them running in parallel and bring the iMac to an use again.

    Use a product such as ScreenRecycler.

  • Any chance for the "away" and "busy" statuses to make it back into Skype for Android?

    I recently realized that the new (well new as of early July) Skype for Android is missing the "away" and "busy" statuses (and perhaps some other one as well). I've seen other users around this forum mentioning the same thing, but it's unclear to me whether this was done intentionally or not. Are there any chances for these statuses to be added back? And if not what has been reasoning behind the decision of taking them out? - Adriano

    There is another topic, addressing this issue and also explaining it pretty good:http://community.skype.com/t5/Android/Regression-in-4-0-Away-and-Busy-statuses-not-visible/td-p/1729768Unfortunately it doesn’t have much kudos either, even though it is pretty old. The worst about it is, that you aren’t even able to see the real status of your contacts:                Contacts who have their status set to “away” are shown as online.                Contacts who have it set to “busy” are shown as offline. (Which is even worse…)This simply can’t be intentional.  Also.. It's been possible in older skype versions for android, it's also possible on ios.. So where is the need to get rid of the busy/away status in the new android version?

  • Where Is The Archive (Link) For "The List" (Weekly Suggested Compilations)

    Each week (or so), the iTunes Store has a button link to the current song compilations for certain themes. For example, this week, it is 17 college fight songs. A few weeks ago, I wanted to check out the suggested downloads for popular TV commercial songs. However, the next day I logged onto the iTunes Store, a new listing had already been made, and I am having trouble finding (a link to) the archive for "The List" (if it actually exists, and if not, one should be made). Thanks.

    can you send a screen shot? I have my archive folder.

  • Is There a Technique for Improving Rental Movie Experience?

    I attempted to watch “The American” on my 2nd Gen Apple TV two nights ago. I was told it would take four hours to be ready, so I just left it alone and did something else. Last evening I found that it was ready to watch, so I did. It was fine for the first hour, but during the second half it stopped three times for several minutes to re-buffer -- a very annoying experience for movie watching, particularly when one is paying for it.
    My Apple TV is connected wirelessly to my home wireless system. My home system always measures in the 15 to 20 Mb speed range, and my router is a brand new Airport Extreme (2.4 and 5 bands simultaneously). My Apple TV shows four (out of five) bars on the system info part of the menu. When I run the Apple TV’s own network speed test, there is no indication of a problem there either (although some feedback one way or the other would be better).
    So, is there a technique for making this better, using the 8GB of memory in the new Apple TV? Movie watching was always flawless with my old 1st Gen Apple TV because you could download the rental to its memory. Is there some tip which will allow me to do the same with this new 2nd Gen Apple TV?

    Thanks to vazandrew for prompt response. Yes, that's the way I understand the situation too. I was just wondering if anyone knew how to make better use of the cache to store more of the movie so we could prevent stoppages.
    Frankly, the 2nd Gen Apple TV is a step backword from Apple's "it just works" philosophy. Yes, one can experiment with direct ethernet connection, look for wireless interference, etc., but the old First Gen. Apple TV simply wasn't that finicky to get a good movie watching experience (I've owned one for 2 1/2 years). And best of all it is a wonderful house music box where I keep all of my music, control it with my iPhone or iPad app, and don't have to have my computer on to do it. The only thing it lacked was Netflix streaming which is also spotty from time to time.
    I plan to suggest to Apple that they develop an "Apple TV Pro" or Apple TV II" that contains memory like the 1st Gen did, but solid state this time, and also allow Netflix and other internet streaming. Yes, it would cost somewhat more, but it would perform much better. I wonder if they will pay attention to my voice in the wilderness?
