Making a new database?

I want to make a new database for images I do not want in my current database.
1. How do I make a new database?
2. How do I switch between the 2?
Thanks!

If you use the free version of iPhoto Library Manager you can name the libraries and the library packages will have that same name and the name will be displayed at the top of the iPhoto window when it's opened.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

HELP: Problem creating a new database in Oracle 9i

I am having difficulty in creating a new database in Oracle 9i, on Windows 2000. I would be obliged if somebody can go through the posting below and guide me as to what mistake I am making or what is the source of the problem:
I reproduce the steps taken by me.
I have decide the database to be called Mydb. I have made the following directories:
-- d:\mydb
-- d:\mydb\data
-- d:\mydb\control
-- d:\mydb\log
-- d:\mydb\bdump
-- d:\mydb\cdump
-- d:\mydb\udump
-- d:\mydb\archive
-- d:\mydb\pfile
-- d:\mydb\scripts
-- d:\mydb\exp
I copied the initoracle.ora file to d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora, and made the following changes to it:
-- db_name = mydb
-- instance_name = mydb
-- control_files = ("d:\mydb\control\control01.ctl")
-- background_dump_dest = d:\mydb\bdump
-- core_dump_dest = d:\mydb\cdump
-- user_dump_dest = d:\mydb\udump
-- remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive
Also, I created a text file called d:\Oracle\Ora90\DATABASE\initmydb.ora with the following contents:
ifile=d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
At DOS prompt, I run the following command:
set oracle_sid=mydb
I run the ORAPWD utility to create internal password file at the command prompt.
d:
cd \oracle\ora90\database
orapwd file=pwdmydb.ora password=panther entries=25
I create a Windows service for the database as follows:
oradim -new -sid mydb -startmode a -pfile d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
I get connected:
sqlplusw /nolog
connect sys/change_on_install as sysdba
startup nomount # pfile=d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
create database mydb
MAXINSTANCES 1
MAXLOGHISTORY 1

group 2 ('d:\mydb\log\log2.log') size 1m,
group 3 ('d:\mydb\log\log3.log') size 1m;
Now I get the following error:
create database mydb
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
The data files, control file, redo log files are all created. But the above error comes, and I am unable to start the database. What is the reason?
Thanks in anticipation.
PS

Hi DENIS,
I have executed the following commands (which are in a script file),
1. sqlplus /nolog
2. connect sys/change_on_install as sysdba
3. create database ...
4. ...
When I execute the 3rd command, I get an error message as "ORACLE TERMINATED FORCED" and it will end the session. So when the next set of commands in the script are executed, I got the error saying "DATABASE NOT OPEN".
How to rectify this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Kiran

Problems wit creating a new database on solaris wit dbca ORA 09925/ORA-1031

Hi Oracle users,
I'm using Oracle 10gR2 on Solaris and try to create a new database
instance.
I'm using dbca for that task. After making all the settings I get the error
ORA-09925 and then ORA-1031.
For the second error I found the advice to run te root.sh to be sure that
all user privileges for local logins are correct.
But tis didn't help.
Do you have an advice for me ?
Best regards,
Daniel

Connection problem with new database

Hi
Installed new database on my windows machine successfully
while connectting as sys user error
ORA-12500:TNS: listner failed to start dedicated server process
wlile connecting toad and sqlplus

Please read the error again "listner failed to start dedicated server process". Means what, listner listened your request to connect, it tried to hand-off the connect request but due to resources problem (lack of memory) it is not possible to start server process; i.e. presumably the server is very busy at that time. If you are not able to resolve the issue, please check the unwanted services and stop them in strat-run-services.msc.

New database connection failed with oepe

Hi everybody,
@http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27086_02/help/oracle.eclipse.tools.common.doc/html/install.html#install_oepe
Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse Installation Guide says:
"You can install OEPE using any of the following ways:
Download, and then unzip OEPE plugins directly into the Eclipse dropins folder and restart Eclipse."
This is what I have done,
then when I create a new database connection, and I press the button "test connection" i got a pop up saying "Ping failed" giving details:

Did I miss something?

The documentation is out of date. The unzip to dropins method is no longer supported. The OEPE zip you downloaded is actually an archived repository. You can follow the instruction for installing using Eclipse Update Manager and point to the downloaded zip instead of the online repository.
I will follow up to get the docs updated.

Creating a new database in Oracle Database 10g...

I have downloaded a copy of Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from Oracle's website. I am using Windows XP. I am trying to create an Oracle database that I can connect to from Access 2003 via ODBC.
1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.
2. I have created a System DSN connection in the ODBC Data Source Administrator for the Oracle ODBC driver. Once I create a database in Oracle, how do I actually establish a connection to it from Access? The ODBC code to connect is there, but when I run it, I get an error.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.If you can see those options then you are already connected to the database. You probably want to create a user, not a database (are you by chance coming from SQL Server?)
driver={OracleDriver};Dbq=TESTDBQ;Uid=Administrator;Pwd=;You would replace "Administrator" with the name of the user you created in the database.

I'm considering on making a new Apple ID as I currently share one. If I create a new one, will my Apple devices be wiped of content?

I share an Apple ID at the moment. I am considering making a new one for services such as iMessage and Facetime. If I create a new Apple ID will my Apple devices (iPhone, iPod Touch) be all wiped of my content? I know music and other iTunes content is tied to my old iTunes and that will be gone, but will my photos and text messages and apps be deleted as I would be using a new ID?

Nothing will be gone or wiped. Yes, your purchases remain tied to the existing AppleID, but you can create as many new AppleIDs as you wish (or at least, as you have email addresses for) and use a different one for each apple service.
So you can continue to use the current AppleID for the iTunes and App store, and create a new one for iCloud and iMessage (or even use a third one for iMessage if you wish to).
That is probably the optimal thing for a family or spouses - one shared AppleID for purchased content, separate AppleID(s) for iCloud/iMessage and other services (like these very forums).

HT3209 every time i try to buy anything an error box pops up that says my apple ID has expired and i try making a new one but it keeps telling me the same thing. what do i do?

every time i try to buy anything an error box pops up that says my apple ID has expired and i try making a new one but it keeps telling me the same thing. i cant find an answer to my problem no mater what i do.

How to crate a new database

I have installed the XE edition and the home page and all works. What I would like to do is create a simple database and have an application talk to it via OLEDB. Two problems with that:
1) If you want to create a new database, the simplest option is to use the Database Configuration Assistance (DBCA). But that doesnt come with XE and you dont appear to be able to download it.
Your next option is to use SQL statements. The manual contains some info but it states that your DBA will typically create the database using SQl scripts. It does give some snippets as to what you might do, but it is not complete and hence fails if you try it (bad docs!). I found a few other web pages that contain some commands, e,g this one:
http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html
which I am about to try next.
Why is creating a new DB using Oracle so hard? Took me 10 min on MySQL and SQL Server. Surely for test purposes if you just want a simple database with default settings, it should be easy to create?
2) Visual Studio 2003 lets you do a database connection test. So with Oracle XE installed, I did a connection test using "Microsfot OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" and I choose local host and give it my admin user name and password. It says "Test connection failed because of an error initializing provider. SQL Server does not exist or access denied". I also installed ODAC101040 which is supposed to install the Oracle OLEDB driver. So if I try and do a connection test for the "Oracle Provider for OLE DB". Just selecting it gives you "OraOLEDBplus10.dll - The specific module could not be found". So what does ODAC101040 install really then?
Any ideas?

I will take the first part of this (BTW - it's often better to have seperate threads for seperate questions - makes it easier to track).
The concept of a database in SQLServer and MySQL is different than the concept of a database in Oracle. In Oracle, we use the concept of a schema to seperate logical objects in a name space, SQLServer and MySQL use a database. We also then use the concept of a tablespace to seperate how physical objects are stored, as opposed to how a database is used in SQLServer and MySQL.
In XE, you can have as many schemas and tablespaces as you want. So instead of looking at CREATE DATABASE (which is really complicated, and not really doing what you think it is doing), you should be instead be considering CREATE USER (creates a schema in which you can then create database objects) and CREATE TABLESPACE (creates a physical storage location). Having said that, XE defaults the physical storage locations to a generic tablespace called USERS, as an aid to simplicity, but you can create your own tablespaces if you wish.
CREATE USER is docced in the 2 DAY DBA guide for XE. CREATE TABLESPACE is in the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 doc - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_7003.htm#SQLRF01403
So the question really is - what is if that you are wanting to do when you are trying to create a database in Oracle ? What is the problem you are trying to solve ?

How can I create a new database?

Hi,
can anyone tell me the steps I have to do if I want to create a new database? Can I perform this operation from the console of the Enterprise Manager or from the DBA studio?
Thank you.

You can use DBAssist to create Database of your own desire. No need to go anywhere if u r working on 8i.
If this sounds good to u then steps can be followed.

Access key needed when creating a new database table with SE11

Hi,
I'm using SAP Testdrive (evaluation) on linux in order to learn a bit about ABAP programming. I want to create a new database table in the dictionary to be used in my programs. I proceed in the following way:
1) I run the SE11 transaction
2) At the first entry I write the name of the table to be created (in the Database Table field)
3) I click on the create button.
But then the system asks me an Access Key to register, where can I get this?
Thanks in advance,
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

Ok I found the answer to my question in another thread
Developer Key
Make sure that your program names starts with "Z" or "Y", otherwise the system will ask you to register the object because it thinks you are creating/changing in the SAP namespace.
In fact this was my error, my table name didn't start with neither "Z" nor "Y".
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

Creating a new database in a new Oracle home

Hi,
I'd like to add a new database using dbca, but I want it in a different Oracle Home to the other databases on the server. I notice that in the dbca I do not get an option to specify a new Oracle home. I assume it is because this tool is only for database creation and not instance creation. Do I therefore need to do a full Oracle install in order to create a second Oracle home?
Many thanks.
****Ignore this, I know what I'm doing now****
Edited by: user11201026 on Aug 6, 2009 3:52 AM

You need to better understand what an ORACLE_HOME is. An Oracle home has nothing to do with a Oracle database.
ORACLE_HOME defines the location of an installation of an Oracle software installation.
Where you decide to put a database is irrelevant to the location of an ORACLE_HOME.
One ORACLE_HOME can have zero, one, or many databases.
But you can not have an ORACLE_HOME without an installation of Oracle software.
The concept docs are at http://tahiti.oracle.com.

Creating a new company in a new database

I am attempting to create a new company, but want it in a separate database. (Just like creating a Sandbox for development and testing.) However, when I choose to create the new company (specifying company name, accounting periods, etc.), B1 will not let me specify a new database name. It is forcing me to select an existing B1 database.
Is there a Procedure to create a new (clean copy) of a B1 database that I can subsequently use to create the new company in????
Thanks for any help you can give me...

Hello,
Do one thing first take a backup of SAP company from SQL.
then make new database using Sufix and prefix Test_ then restore that database which you have taken backup.
Now You can login in your test database in SAP.
Thanks

Create a new database in foxpro , msaccess dynamically

hello,
i am writing an application in which depending on the users selection a database will be created dynamically .i.e if he selects oracle or foxpro or access it will create a new database using the dsn supplied by the user and then creates the tables in that particular database .
i would like to know how to create a new database from within a class file for foxpro or msacces dynamically.
thanks for the help

hi,
thanks for ur response.
i have no problem in creating tables
my application does that, but i wanna know how to create a new database so that the tables that are created for a particular clients data are stored in a database specific for that client only , i.e. when his work is over he can completely discard the database by dropping it and can create new database when he wants to start a new database related to different client.
i would like to know how to create that database file, system or file dsn dynamically.
