Move Oracle11gXE 32bit DB to Oracle11gXE 64 bit version

Hi,
Firstly, I am not a DB Administrator. I had an issue wtih APEX installed in my Oracle11gXE 32 bit version. So, taking this as opportunity, I uninstalled this (took a backup of oraclexe folder) and installed Oracle 11gXE 64 bit version.
Now I need to restore or move the database to 64bit version.
Can someone help me on this?
Regards
Uma

In your new instance, get a list of the datafiles ( sqlplus system ... select name from v$datafile; ) and get a resetlogs trace backup of the controfile (alter database backup controlfile to trace resetlogs;) and shutdown the instance (conn /as sysdba; shutdown immediate). It would be better to have a controlfile trace backup from the old instance, if other tablespace(s) were added in the old instance. But lines referencing the other datafiles can simply be added into the create controlfile statement.
The trace file is created in the trace directory. It contains the steps for recreating controlfile(s). So move those datafiles out of the way, and copy your backup *dbf *data* files in place of the new instance datafiles. *Not* the controlfile, its control.dbf in an "out of the box" setup, and not the tempfile. You can put temp.dbf in place but it gets recreated anyway. But if the controlfile exists, the create controlfile... step will not succeed.
Via sqlplus get a sysdba connection and run `startup nomount` and run the command from that trace file, everything *after* the startup nomount line up to and including the database character set line, as well as the semicolon is on the following line.
Open the database with resetlogs upgrade (alter database open resetlogs upgrade;) and next run the line to add the tempfile(s), that will also be found that controlfile trace backup file. Run the catalog upgrade script, its in the rdbms/admin folder under the ORACLE_HOME folder ( @?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd ) (like it says at Introduction to the Upgrade Process for Oracle Database. ) and that *should*  get all the x64 architecture bits in place. The catupgrd will take some time, and as long as it completes OK it shuts down the instance as its last step.
So one more sysdba connection and do a plain `startup;` and it *should* be all ready to go.

  • Captivate movie imbedded in HTML help on 64-bit Vista / Win7

    I have created a HTML help file with Robohelp 8 containing a link to a Captivate 4 movie and it  works fine on 32-bit versions of Vista and Windows 7, but just displays "Loading multimedia control ..." on 64-bit versions of those OSs.   Any idea what is happening and how to make it work on 64-bit target versions of Windows.  The help file was created on a 32-bit Vista OS.

    Hi Margaret
    I recently encountered this myself. The only solution I've found for me is to install the Microsoft Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode. Then open the CHM from inside there and your Captivate movies should display fine.
    Oh, and nag Adobe about it by filing a Bug report. (Of course they likely won't pay much attention to it because I think they feel CHMs are dated and they would like to see AIR help flourish. Then again, I'm not sure if you would see the same thing in AIR help or not.)
    Cheers... Rick

  • Opening CS4 32bit  from Lightroom 2 64 bit

    I am using Lightroom 2.6 64bit on a Windows 7 64bit PC. I have both 32 & 64 bit versions of Photoshop CS4 installed. I need to use the 32 bit version of CS4 as I have plugins that will not work in the 64 bit version. When I try to open a file for editing from Lightroom it automatically opens in the 64 bit version. I would like to know if there is a way to enable Lightroom to open the files in CS4 32 bit version by default. Thanks to anyone who may be able to help. A Merry Christmas to one and all.

    Hi Hal,
    Thanks for the prompt reply. I tried it and it worked. Someone else suggested setting the 32bit CS4 as the secondary editor but I have not tried it.

  • Connect Non-SAP Oracle db (32bit) in sql 2005 (64 bit) using linked server

    Hi,
    I am connecting Oracle 10g database from SQL 2005 using linked server, in which i get the error
    "Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "L2ORACLE".
    OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "L2ORACLE" returned message "Oracle client and networking components
    were not found. " (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)
    SAP Server with sql 2005 db is in 64 bit server / Windows 2003
    Non-SAP Oracle 10g is in 32 bit windows 2003 server.
    i have installed Oracle 64 bit client in the SAP Server and also copied the 64 bit version of dboraslib.dll to the DIR_LIBRARY path. I am able to view the oracle tables in the oracle client.
    But, when i create the linked server, it gives the above error.
    If i install 32 bit version of Oracle client in the SAP Server, i am able to create the linked server in the db level, but, it says "Work Process restarted, session terminated" message in the Z program in SAP.
    The same works in the test environment where both are 32 bit servers. problem is when SAP server is in 64 bit and non sap is in 32 bit.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Nagu

    "Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "L2ORACLE".

    check the workprocess traces for errors (and/or SM21). It seems that the system is "not aware" that an Oracle client is installed.
    64bit programs can´t load 32bit libraries/DLLs that´s why the workprocess dumps when you use the 32bit client.

  • Flash player shows "Movie not loaded" on Firefox 7; would 32 bit version or mode solve?

    Flash Player 11.0.1.152 is loaded on my machine. Firefox 7.0.1 is my browser. Running Windows 7 Home Premium. Flash content which worked before now does not. When I visit Flash enabled sites, the display area for the Flash content remains blank. When I right click in the display are, I get the "Movie not loaded" message. I have seen suggestions that the current Flash version does not work in 64 bit browsers. Is a 32 bit version of Firefox 7 available or is there a way to run it in 32 bit mode? Does it sound likely that this would resolve the issue?

    This computer has two different versions of Flash Player for Internet Explorer and two different versions of Flash Player for other browsers.
    A clean install is recommended: 
    Windows
    Download the current 32 bit uninstaller    Uninstaller for 32 bit Operating Systems
    Close all browser windows and run the uninstaller 
    Restart Windows 
    Delete all remaining files and folders located in the following directories. (tip: copy and paste these paths into the path bar in an Explorer window) 
    C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flas 
    %appdata%\Adobe\Flash Player 
    %appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player
    Verify that the file “FlashPlayerCPLApp.cpl” in C:\Window\system32\ for 32 bit systems has been deleted.
    Download the following installer files:
    32 bit Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    32 bit Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Physically disconnect from the Internet and run the installers.

  • Macbook Pro w/ Boot Camp - Best way to reformat the 32bit Windows 7 and install 64 bit version without affecting the Mac side?

    Hi guys! I have a new Macbook Pro purchased from Best Buy yesterday. I had the Geek Squad upgrade the RAM to 8 gigs (They only had PNY brand, I was concerned but went with it anyway). I had them install Boot Camp Windows 7 Ultimate. Today I picked it up and when I started playing with it I learned that they installed the 32 bit version of Win 7 Ultimate instead of the 64 bit version, why, I have NO IDEA.
    So, I want to replace the Win 7 installation with the 64 bit version but have read that this can be tricky. What is the proper way to do this? I'm not sure I trust the Geek Squad to do this for me.
    I assume I need to reformat the Windows partition, defragment and then install the 64 bit version of Win 7 Ultimate, but am not completely sure. I want to be sure that I do NOT do anything that could affect the Mac side
    What do you guys think?

    I think you should take it back to the Geeks and tell them what you want, I also think you should backup before you do.
    You do not need to reformat or repartition, you need to reinstall Windows from a 64bit copy, 32 & 64 have identical requirements as far as partition and format go, defragmenting has nothing at all to do with your needs.

  • Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid  on Linux x86-64?

    Since Oracle did not release 64 bit version of Oracle 10g grid for Linux X86-64. Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid on Linux x86-64? If so did anyone tried this? and also any known issues?

    All I had to do was use the 32bit version of "/usr/bin/gcc" and "/usr/bin/g++" to run the installation
    That is:
    bin]# cp -p /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc_old
    bin]# mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc323
    mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/gcc323'? y

    mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/g++323'? y
    bin]# ln -s /usr/bin/g++296 /usr/bin/g++
    AFTER INSTALLATION REMEMBER TO
    move back the 64bit files to their former state.
    bin]#rm /usr/bin/g++

  • ESXi 3.5 32 bit version - Downloadable ISO

    Hello,
    Does anyone has VMware Hypervisor 3.5 32bit version, downloadable ISO?
    My ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0, build #207095 is not updateable, as I would have had to grab the update by June 2011.
    I have had this test machine sitting all this while unpatched etc., as it was not in a production environment.
    Now I need the use of a test machine and I do not have access to a 64bit machine and I just want to install the 3.5 again.
    I have a BDC running on it and I can move it using Vmware Stand Alone Converter between my ESXi 5.5 U5 server and back.
    I just want to have the latest patched installation on 32bit hardware!
    If anyone has a link that I can get the latest 32 bit ISO, please let me know.
    I have been searching downloads on this site to no avail. I believe they have ended support for 32 bit versions.
    Thanks

    Hello A.P.
    Whilst your statement is a helpful answer to my issue....
    When I go there to download it this is what I get:
    "You either are not entitled or do not have permissions to download this product.
    Check with your My VMware Super User, Procurement Contact or Administrator.
    If you recently purchased this product through VMware Store or through a third-party, try downloading later."
    So I have to resort to getting it from somewhere else. I did manage to get it from another link (undisclosed), and I have done a clean install and I am now running on build 391406
    Thanks

  • Browse in Adobe Bridge CS6 - default to 64-bit version

    I have Adobe Bridge CS6 32-bit and 64-bit installed. I prefer to use the 64-bit version, but whenever I right-click a folder in Windows Explorer and choose 'Browse in Adobe Bridge CS6', the 32-bit version always opens. How can I make this default to the 64-bit version? There doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall the 32-bit version.

    Edit your System Registry on:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Bridge
    Change the path that is pointing at 32bit version and set it to point at the location of 64bit version:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS6 (64 Bit)\Bridge.exe "%L"

  • We can't install Office 2013 64-bit on a Win 7 PC that had a 32-bit version of Office

    We have a development PC running Windows 7 64-bit. This PC has been around for a while, and way back had various 32-bit versions of Office installed, starting with Office 2003 through 2010. Those versions were uninstalled and Office 2013 Pro
    Plus 32-bit was the latest version installed. That version was uninstalled using Revo Uninstaller then the registry was cleaned using JV16 to make sure leftover junk from the prior 32 bit version(s) was removed so we could install Office 2013 x64
    Pro Plus, which we now need for testing. It won't install because the installer sees something left over from the prior 32 bit version(s). We can't wipe the PC and start over; it has special sensor hardware and software that we can't move to a different PC
    and we're on a tight timeline. We searched the registry and the Program Files (x86) folder and subfolders for anything left over from Office without any luck. The error message reads:
    We can't install the 64-bit version of Office because we found the following 32-bit
    programs on your PC:
    Please uninstall all 32-bit Office programs, then try reinstalling 64-bit Office.
    Note that the error message doesn't list the name(s) of any "32-bit programs on your PC" in the error message.
    Anybody have an idea how to force an installation of 64-bit Office 2013 Pro Plus?

    Hi,
    Which Office 365 Home Premium editions did you install? 32bit or 64bit? Office 2013 doesn’t support running side-by-side installations of 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Office. For example, you can’t install Office 2010 32-bit side-by-side with Visio

  • ITunes 7.6 and Windows XP Pro x64  ---- 64 bit version of Windows XP Pro

    My wife was given an iPod nano, so I downloaded the current version of iTunesSetup.exe from www.apple.com and tried to run the executable. It told me that it wasn't designed to install iTunes on my 64 bit version of Windows XP Pro, and that I should go back to www.apple.com and download the 64 bit installer. I went back to www.apple.com and searched for the 64 bit installer in vain. There is only one main link to the current installer and the website determines which version of the installer you're given. After a few google searches I managed to aquire iTunes64setup.exe from the Apple site. I ran the executable and it told me "This iTunes installer requires that your computer is running Windows Vista 64-bit" and then it gave me the option to exit. I ended up installing iTunes from the executable I had originally downloaded. I have iTunes 7.6.2.9 installed now but it doesn't detect, or can't operate my DVD burner, so I can't rip music with iTunes for use on my wife's nano. I get this error report when I run the Diagnostic test built into iTunes.

    And there was no change in the diagnostic when I first tried to repair the install and then tried to reinstall iTunes. I'm sure the burner is working because I can play music, watch movies and all the normal stuff a DVD burner can do using Nero.
    I'm guessing I need an iTunes version of 64 bit optical drive driver.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I got the iTunes 7 to work on XP Pro 64bit. What I did was this:
    1. Downloaded DriverInstaller_AMD64EM64T.exe
    2. Installed it.
    3. Created this file tree: C:\Windows\Sysnative\drivers (Easier terminology, I went into the Windows folder and created a folder named "sysnative", opened that folder and created another folder called "drivers".
    4. Then I located the folder where I installed DriverInstaller_AMD64EM64T.exe ..
    5. I took the file called GEARAspiWDM and COPIED IT. I DID NOT MOVE THIS FILE!!!
    6. I pasted a COPY of this file into sysnative\drivers. The folder I just made.
    7. I installed iTunes 7, not 7.6. 7.6 and this method won't solve the burning issue. That would require more programs and more patients.
    Note, you will have to manipulate iTunes when you want to burn. The best way to do this, I found, was to simply make a playlist and right click the playlist on the left column and select burn to disk. It should act normally.
