Need help on Upgrading oracle database on windows

Dear All,
We have installed Oracle 11.2.0.1 Ent Edition on Windows server 2008 64 bit
Can anybody help me to get guide for upgrading oracle 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 on windows?

Install 11.2.0.3 into a new ORACLE_HOME, apply the latest PSU patch - then follow the steps in the Upgrade Guide - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e23633/toc.htm

  • Need help regarding upgrading Oracle 10g Forms to Oracle 11g Fusion Middlew

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create a workshop on a VM for showing the migration / upgrading of Oracle Forms 10g to Oracle 11g FMW using the Upgrade Assistant tool available in <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/ua.bat.
    As per my understanding of pre-requisites:
    1)     I need to install Oracle SOA Suite 10g on my VM.
    2)     I also need to install Oracle SOA Suite 11g on my VM.
    3)     I need to install Oracle Forms/Reports Services 10g on my Oracle SOA Suite 10g installation.
    4)     I need to run Oracle Forms/reports installer on my Oracle SOA Suite 11g installation.
    5)     I need to run upgrade assistant tool on my VM to upgrade my form from source(Oracle SOA Suite 10g) to destination(Oracle SOA Suite 11g). Is it mandatory for this migration that I should have Oracle SOA Suite 10g and Oracle SOA Suite 11g on the same system ?
    Having all these software installed on one VM would be difficult. So just wanted to check can I avoid any software to install on VM ?
    If there is any alternative suggestion then please let me know.
    Regards,

    What do you want to do with the SOA-suite? At least for Froms10G is is not necessary.

  • Newby Needs Help Connecting to Oracle Database

    I'm very very new to java. I'm trying to write a program to connect to and read some fields in an oracle table. I'm having problems and am not sure how to correct it. I downloaded and installed the oracle thin driver. I'm using Eclipse 3.3 and JRE 1.6. This is my code:
    import java.sql.*;
    public class One {
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              try {
                   DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
                   System.out.println("let's connect");
                   Connection conn=DriverManager.getConnection(
              "jdbc:oracle:thin:@a571p05.pt.com:1521:orap1","username","password");
                        System.out.println("I'm connected");
                        Statement stmt=conn.createStatement();
                        ResultSet rset=stmt.executeQuery(
                             "select CUSTNUM,CUST_LNAME from TBL.CUSTOMER where " + "CUSTNUM=\"12345678900\"");
                   System.out.println("Result set?");
                   while (rset.next())
                        System.out.println(rset.getString(1)); //Print col 1
                   stmt.close();
              catch(Exception x) {
                   System.out.println("Unable to connect!");
              System.exit(0);
    If I just run it, this is the output:
    let's connect
    I'm connected
    Unable to connect!
    So, it looks like it may be connecting, at least it runs the line that establishes the connection then the next line which prints a comment. However, it seems to fail at some point thereafter. I've tried debugging it and as far as I can tell, it's erroring out on thie line:
    DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
    with this stack trace:
    Thread [main] (Suspended)     
         ClassNotFoundException(Throwable).<init>(String, Throwable) line: 217     
         ClassNotFoundException(Exception).<init>(String, Throwable) line: not available

    I checked the project properties\java build path and I have JDBC_THIN_DRIVER and JRE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY listed there. Do I need something else? I'm not quite sure what I'm missing or what the errors are telling me. Any help, or pointers are appreciated. Thanks much!

    I would write that class more like this, assuming that customer ID is a String:
    import java.sql.*;
    public class One
       private static final String DEFAULT_DRIVER = "com.oracle.jdbc.Driver";
       private static final String DEFAULT_URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@a571p05.pt.com:1521:orap1";
       private static final String DEFAULT_USERNAME = "username";
       private static final String DEFAULT_PASSWORD = "password";
       private static final String SQL = "select CUSTNUM,CUST_LNAME from TBL.CUSTOMER where CUSTNUM=?";
       private static final String DEFAULT_CUSTOMER_ID = "12345678900";
       public static void main(String[] args)
          Connection conn = null;
          PreparedStatement stmt = null;
          ResultSet rset = null;
          try
             Class.forName(DEFAULT_DRIVER);
             conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DEFAULT_URL, DEFAULT_USERNAME, DEFAULT_PASSWORD);
             stmt = conn.prepareStatement(SQL);
             String customerId = ((args.length > 0) ? args[0] : DEFAULT_CUSTOMER_ID);
             stmt.setString(1, customerId);
             rset = stmt.executeQuery();
             while (rset.next())
                System.out.println(rset.getString(1));
          catch (Exception x)
             x.printStackTrace();
          finally
             close(rset);
             close(stmt);
             close(conn);
       private static void close(Connection conn)
          try
             if (conn != null)
                conn.close();
          catch (SQLException e)
             e.printStackTrace();
       private static void close(Statement stmt)
          try
             if (stmt != null)
                stmt.close();

  • Steps to upgrade oracle database from11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 3

    Steps to upgrade oracle database from11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 3

    Hi,
    Upgrade steps
    1. Install 11.2.0.3.0 rdbms software
    11.2.0.3 patch set is a full release.
    Beginning with the release 11.2.0.3 patch set, you have two ways to apply a patch set
    i)Out-of-place upgrade (Recommended) -- 11.2.0.3 will be installed as standalone at another location. So there is no impact on source oracle home and also DB upgrade will take less time
    See Note 1276368.1 : Complete checklist for out-of-place manual upgrade from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2 , it is applicable for 11.2.0.3 as well
    ii)in-place upgrade - 11.2.0.3 will be installed on top of 11.2 installation, So source oracle home will be replaced, Downtime will be high comparing out of place upgrade
    for more info, Please refer to
    Note 1189783.1 Important Changes to Oracle Database Patch Sets Starting With 11.2.0.2
    11.2.0.3.0 software can be downloaded from My Oracle support: patch 10404530
    https://updates.oracle.com/download/10404530.html
    Please select your platform before downloading (Click on "Platform or Language" drop down menu)
    if the platform name contains (32-bit) then it's 32-bit 11.2.0.3 client version
    To install 11.2.0.3, you must download both p10404530_112020_<platform>_1of7.zip
    and p10404530_112030_<platform>_2of7.zip
    <platform> = your platform( ie for linux x86, download p10404530_112030_LINUX_1of7.zip and

  • Upgrade Oracle database 10.2.1.0 to 11gR2 without upgrading APEX

    Hi,
    How can we upgrade Oracle database 10.2.1.0 to 11gR2 without upgrading APEX? We currently have APEX 3.0 running in our 10g databases and don't want these APEX schemas to be upgraded to APEX 3.2.x during the database upgrade. We'll want to test everything before upgrading these APEX schemas manually to 4.1.1 later.
    Thanks.
    Andy

    Pretty sure running the 11gR2 catalog upgrade won't touch your apex. Can't speak for using the upgrade utility, never used it.
    Windows? Or *nix hosts? On windows fixing the oradim setups are more of challenge.

    Thanks. Jimmy

    Okay Demo.  My theory is that accessing iCloud if apps were backed up to it can be redownload end then updated. I am thinking that with the new apple ID the iCloud account may only recognize the high jacked ID. I don't know if I made it clearer but I can do some digging. I don't like to see people using Apple devices having a tuff time. Not cool.
