I am installing Oracle 10.1.0.3 on RHEL4 but cannot manage to get installer screen loaded. I have made the necessary environment changes, applied patch 415257 to no avail.
I get the error Exception: java.lang..UnsatisfiedLink Error: /tmp/OraInstall.. cannot open shared object file or directory occured. Implying file libXp.so.6 is missing.
I downloaded Xfree86-libs-4.3.0.780EL.i386.rpm files to no avail.
How can I get the Installer up and running? Are there any patches to apply?

Oracle Database 10g JDBC Samples on OTN

Review the OTN's new Oracle Database 10g JDBC Samples that illustrate new features introduced with Oracle10g JDBC Driver. The features illustrated are Connection Cache, Named Parameter Support, IEEE Datatypes, Thin Driver support for PLSQL Index by Tables and Web Rowset. Also watch out for samples on Datalinks, New Encryption Algorithms, Globalization Support, Shortcuts for CLOB manipulation and more to be hosted shortly.
The samples are available at,
http://otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/files/oracle10g/index.html

I suppose that is nice.
It would be even nicer if the drivers actually conformed to JDBC so that one could for example reliably use blobs in a J2EE server with CMP.

Check "Problem: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 can only be installed in new

Hi All
Installing 10g software on AIX Box in /oracle/oraHome2,where oracle9i is already installed in /oracle/oraHome1 and oracle inventory is in /oracle/inventory
In product specific prerequisite screen I am getting the
check:Oracle Home incompatibilties is failed I am getting the error
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Passed
=======================================================================
Checking for Oracle Home incompatibilities ....
Actual Result: Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 can only be installed in a new Oracle Home
Recommendation: Choose a new Oracle Home for installing this product
though I am installing it in different oracle homes why i am getting this error?
Is it because 10g installation is picking the same oracle inventory /oracle/inventory
do i need to make different oracle inventory for different oracle homes???????plz confirm..is thats the reason i am getting this error??????
Thanks inadvance
Gagan

I figure out you are trying to install 10gR2 on top of an existing 9iR2 Oracle Home. This is corrected at the Path definition window. Most probably you just click on the <Next> and by default the 9iR2 Oracle Home was selected. You must define a new oracle home for the 10gR2 install.

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.

Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?

Hi,
Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition instead of using the default "users" tablespace provided?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Correct. The sum of all user tablespaces is not allowed to exceed 4 GIG.
You could try shrinking your tablespaces. Theres a script called maxshrink on http://asktom.oracle.com which is useful for this.
You could compress your tables.
If you are storing lobs, you could consider storing them as bfiles.
Or upgrade to Oracle Standard Edition 1. Its not that expensive.

1Z0-045: Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle 8i OCPs

Hi,
I was looking for right reference book for the 1z0-045 upgrade certification. I could not find any reference book that is related to this certification. Only one book have found out on Amazon site, which is "OCP Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Administrators Exam Guide (Oracle Press) (Paperback)" published by McGraw Hill.
But this book does not show exem number 1z0-045 anywhere. So I am not sure, is it a right book to buy.
Please let me know if any one has any knowledge about that.
I appreciate for your information.
Thanks
Amit

The book you mention is for those individuals who are upgrading their 9i OCP to the 10g OCP. Since you are apparently upgrading from 8i OCP, there is possibly a gap in your learning. You might want to take a look at OCP Oracle9i Database: New Features for Administrators Exam Guide (Paperback) which explains the new features for Oracle 9i to someone coming from an 8i background. No additional exam would be needed in your case but this book may help to fill out your knowledge a bit. You could also take a look at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96531/toc.htm if you would rather not buy an additional book.

Muhammad AliOkay I've haven't done 1z0-045 ... but I at one point I was considering 1z0-050 so I'm willing to share my views on an upgrade exam and exams in general.
Remember Oracle are trying to ensure that a DBA who was tested at 8i DBA OCP has nw
It depends on your definition of read the topics. If you mean literally just read the topics then that will result in a failure. If you mean study research practice and fully understand the topics that should lead to a pass.
Bear in mind that Oracle would expect a competent 8i DBA attending the 5 day training course Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle8i DBAs [http://education.oracle.com/web_prod-plq-dad/plsql/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17389GC10&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=] to be able pass the exam with perhaps 2 to 4 weeks further study, revision and practice.
Interestingly this particular exam has a relatively high pass mark (73%) ... one implication of that is that it is prudent to be comfortable with all topics.
Generally an upgrade exam will cover topics beyond that of the straight OCA/OCP exams. The questions will obviously be at OCP level.
It is possilble the Sybex book Oracle 10g New Features for Administrators Study Guide (Certification Study Guide) ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 which although for 1z0-040 may have some relevance for some of your topics. If you choose to purchase it that is your choice. (It seems to have good amazon reviews ... though all of these books can contain errors, it may or may not be updated for 10gR2, and some Sybex Oracle books are sometimes OTT in some areas IMHO, but that wouldn't stop me using one).

Oracle database 10g express edition-database home page problem.

Could someone help me please.?

Running Oracle Database 10g Release 2 on computer with Vista Home Premium

Do you think I need all 3 of these downloads to sun Oracle on my computer at home? I have Windows Vista Home Premium.running on my personal computer at home
Oracle Database 10g Companion CD Release 2 (10.2.0.3)
- 10203_companion_vista.zip (677,074,714 bytes)
- Download latest Oracle Application Express (formerly HTML DB)

Windows Vista Home is not a supported platform. In this specific case it means you can install it and it will partially work. You will have your database up and running, but the Enterprise Manager will behave funny, and it will show several errors when you attempt to launch tasks such as backup, exp/imp, sqlldr, and all other tasks that require connection to the OS (tasks which require the connect as batch privilege). So you may get fun for a while, but if you are thinking about exploiting more EM features, then I suggest you to install a Virtual Machine and install either a supported windows on it or install Oracle Enterprise Linux and install the Oracle 10gR2 for linux.

Anyone install Oracle database 10g Release 2 on OS "Vista Home" Edition??

Dear all,
Anyone install Oracle database 10g Release 2 on OS "Vista Home" Edition??
Best Regards,
Amy

I think that all that Hans and Werner are saying is that since Oracle is not supported on Windows Home anything, if you have any problems with it, blame Windows and not Oracle. I would also guess that most people who are serious about learning Oracle (which you probably are since no business would install Oracle on Windows Vista Home), would install it on a supported platform such as the Windows Server Editions, XP Pro or Linux.
One possible alternative to what you are asking about is to install a virtual machine on your Windows Home Premium, install Linux as the guest OS in your virtual machine and then install Oracle on the Linux OS. The good thing about this type of installation vs. a dual-boot-with-Linux installation is you don't have to worry about possibly ruining your Windows installation if something goes wrong setting up the dual boot.

Can't access Home Page - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition...

Hi,
I have been running the Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on my Windows XP machine for years from this location:
C:\Applications\OracleDatabaseExpress\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\Database_homepage.url
In Properties of the Database_homepage.url file, the URL is:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
However, when I double-click on the Database_homepage.url file, I get the message "The Page cannot be displayed" in IE. I do run the "net start OracleXETNSListener" utility first.
I only ran it last week. After that, I did run a couple of virus checks that deleted a couple of trojan viruses.
What could have gone wrong suddenly? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Installation of Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 Server

Hi Guys,
We have to install Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003.
I read on net, metalink and OTN as well and it seems there is no single 10.2.0.3 setup available to do so.
One has to upgrade from earlier version to 10.2.0.3.
Is that so? Is this the only way?
I mean if we want new and fresh 10.2.0.3 then don't we have installer for it?
In this case we will have to install 10.1.0.2 and then upgrade? (we have 10.1.0.2 installable with us)
And if at all that is the only path available then for 10.2.0.3 on Windows 32 bit - Patchset 5337014 i.e. p5337014_10203_WINNT.ZIP from metalink is the correct patch?
Thanks in advance!

Hi guys,
I donwloaded patchset - 5337014, and in its readme it is specified to download and install patch - 5601428.

and i got error saying -

Can any one help in this?
