you cannot.
On the link show it says:
Please Note: This is the suggested progression of the certification path. However, steps do not have to be completed in the order shown.
so that page indicates the exams can be taken in any order; but a certification will not be awarded until all the pre-requisites are met.
http://certification.oracle.com - support - faq ... I think has an authorative answer (from memory) ... but the site is currently down as I post.
However do be confident you can take the exams in any order .... however do be aware 1z0-051 then 1z0-052 should normally be the preferred order.

ThanksIn terms of certification pre-reqs for DBA and PL/SQL OCA's you have an 1z0-147 which is one of the certification exams that satisfy that requirement.
Afer passing 1z0-047 you need to consider whether you should take a developer track or DBA track
From your posts you seem to consider 10g DBA OCA .... 11g DBA OCA would be better but if going down the DBA route your eventual goal should be DBA OCP ..... and that requires mandatory training and your may need to factor that in ... sometimes people may find workforce 10g DBA training is the more accessable to themselves.
As for the books, both the Sybex and Oracle Press exam focused books have their advantages and disadvantages and faults. Oracle Documentation remains the authorative source.

Regards,
ManojI am confused to. 1z0-047 is an SQL exam.
In essence there is no time limiit, however all certifications will eventually be retired as they reach end of life.
Oracle will try to give 3 months notices of retirements ... from a practical point of view 10g DBA and 11g DBA certifications paths will very likely be good for more than a couple of years from now.

I would like to write OCA certification

Hi,
Iam planning to write oracle 10g OCA certification. Please provide practice guide to prepare for certification.
Please help.

Anil,
You must choose a path : http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=141
Oracle issues certifications in varied products : Database Products , PeopleSoft , E-Business Suite , WebLogic etc ( also including erstwhile Sun certifications ...)
Choose a Product and specify here . You will probably get more assistance .
All the Best

Certification path for 10g

I had a doubt of which certification path to take for certification for 10g. From the Oracle site
(http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=140), it shows in the category of 'Middleware' but I feel 10g AS should be in the category of 'Applications'.
So,
a) Oracle Application Server 10g Administrator: Certified Associate
b) Oracle Application Server 10g Administrator: Certified Professional
shown in the category of 'Middleware' should be the one to be taken by me?
I hope, my question is clear.
Please, help in solving the doubt.
regards

b) Oracle Application Server 10g Administrator: Certified Professional
This certificate can only be achieved after the OCA has been achieved
... and unless you are already a database administrator OCP you will need to have done a recognised course.

The quuestion is clear, and the answer is you must do the 1z0-311 exam first.
Please, help in solving the doubt.

I am getting the ssl error when trying to use launchpad on ssl, i can access adminui through ssl with no errors but launchpad says "unable to find valid certification path to requested target"

Hi I desperately need help to fix this error. I installed Adobe LCES4 with ssl enabled and i can access the adminui and workspace on the browser but he problem is when i try connecting to launchpad using https on the server even doing the simple thing like converting document to pdf throws the following error.
any help will be appreciated
DSC Invocation Resulted in Error: class com.adobe.idp.DocumentError : javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target : javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
thanks

We tried adding certificate in trustore.jks file, but it was not successful.
What error you are getting while importing the certificate?
Just perform below steps once:
Download required certificate first
Run CMD as administrator> move to SUP_HOME\Servers\UnwiredServer\Repository\Security
Paste this syntex.
keytool -importcert -alias customerCA -file <certificatefilename>.crt -storepass changeit -keystore truststore.jks -trustcacerts

ODC: ERROR PKIX path building failed: to find valid certification path

Hi to all,
some one has experienced the error: PKIX path building failed: to find valid certification path to request target.... on the ODC while trying to connect
we solved temporally adding the ssl to the java virtual machine, is there a path in the odc to set the ssl ?
ODC 10.350
Thanks!

If you are trying to connect to UCM via SSL , Please check below note

Reading https: certification path

Sorry for crossposting but in the other thread I've got no answer for weeks.
While reading from a https site I get the a ValidatorException "PKIX path building failed:" caused by ValidatorException "unable to find valid certification path to requested target". I've found a lot of threads on this subject with a lot of questions but no answer. There's no problem with the certificate, each of my 3 browsers can access the site. I suppose the browsers acquires public keys from the internet while URLConnection.getInputStream() does not, but why?
Can I make it work generally so I can access any https-site from java just like my browsers can?
Can I make java ignore the absence of valid cartification path (of course, there is a risk, but in this case I do not care).
Can What else can I do? Download certificates and give it to java somehow?

I think a cert has expired and a newer version is used now. My code didn't change. I better should not post the chain, but I'd like to send it to you per email. I haven't found your address, mine is [email protected] (pls write "https" or something like that in the subject as I'm getting quite a lot of spam and I'm good in quick deleting).

You should also evaluate why you are chooses 10g DBA OCA rather than 11g DBA OCA. There can be good reasons for this.
Please note that if you continue with the next DBA certiifcation on that route (10g DBA OCP ) you will need to have an approved attended a hands on course (for that certification) from an approved institution (Oracle University is the safest bet).

Oracle 11g OCA certification

I am newbie .I would like to know a good book for Oracle 11g OCA certification ,1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052(with lesser number of mistakes).Appreciate a response.

I can tell you from personal experience that it is extraordinarily difficult to write a technical book with zero defects. Spell-checkers and grammar checkers produce huge numbers of false positives when looking for standard (i.e. non technical) errors. Technical errors are easy to introduce -- forget to add a 'Not' in a sentence, or something similar -- and hard to detect afterward. When I read through my study guides looking for errors, I tend to see what I meant to write.
That said, such defects are normally a tiny fraction of the information contained within certification manuals. A couple of reviews on the Oracle Press 1Z0-052 book written by John Watson mention a couple of errors and then imply the book is filled with more. I've read the book and it is very informative. It contains hundreds of pieces of information and contains about ten errors -- all mentioned in the errata on the McGraw Hill site. The books is good preparation for the text and for learning the basics of being an Oracle DBA.
As Aman indicated, using more than one source is a good way to help to detect inaccuracies. I believe in always using multiple sources and the documentation is generally a good option for that.

OCA Certification

i recently enrolled for the OCA Certification for which i was to sit for 1ZO-051 exam and 1ZO-052 exams. I have already sat for the first exam( 1ZO-051) and am yet to sit for the second exam. Recently i checked on thew oracle website; they had written something to the effect the OCA Certification has been discontinued and that nearest certfication is OCP. please advise as am abit confused

The OCA is unlikely to go away any time soon. If for some strange reason OU decided to do away with it, they would have to give lots of advance notice.

1Z0-051 without OCA certification

Hi everyone.
I am currently a university student with a great interest in SQL. As a result, I intend to take the SQL Fundamentals qualifications (1Z0-051). I believe passing this exam alone is not sufficient to get an OCA certification, but I am not really interested in becoming a DBA later, I can see myself as a developer instead. I know that there is a SQL Expert qualification too, but I believe I do not have the neccessary experience to pass that exam yet, so I am starting with 1Z0-051. My question is, even though it does not give me a certification, is there still a way it can be placed on my CV so that the employer can track it down/check its validity? Do I get an ID or some sort of code after passing the exam, which can be used for others to look my results up online?
Thank you,
All the best,
D

... I am not really interested in becoming a DBA later, I can see myself as a developer instead.
Just a SQL developer? If you take (and pass) the exam 1Z0-144 after 1Z0-051, you will become an OCA PL/SQL developer. That will be a verifiable Oracle certification.
...is there still a way it can be placed on my CV so that the employer can track it down/check its validity? Do I get an ID or some sort of code after passing the exam, which can be used for others to look my results up online?
You can certainly put on your CV that you passed the Oracle SQL Fundamentals exam. You will get a PDF of the test results that you can show to an employer if they ask. However, the only options in CertView on publishing credentials to third parties is for certifications, not test results.

OCA Certification Inquiry

Hi,
I am preparing to give OCA certification.
And this may sound to be a stupid question but I have a doubt.
OCA certification as a whole consists of two parts right
1Z0-051 - SQL Fundamentals I
1Z0-052 - Oracle DBA Fundamentals I
Are the above two separate certifications?Is it that passing these above certifications only will grant me OCA certification.
If yes then do we have to give them at the same time or there can be gap between them(If gap then how much it would be).
Also could you please let me know the cost of the above two certifications.
Thanks you,
Anshul

OCA certification as a whole consists of two parts rightRight.
Are the above two separate certifications?No. They are separate tests. The two tests together will grant you the Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate certification.
If yes then do we have to give them at the same time or there can be gap between themThey can be taken at widely separated times. There is no time limit beyond the retirement of the exams. You might take 051 tomorrow and 052 three years from now.
Also could you please let me know the cost of the above two certifications.1Z0-051: $125 US
1Z0-052: $195 US

When to take the OCA certification

Hi! I am barely 6 months within the job in the Database Administration field (fresh graduate) and I believe I'm still learning the ropes, I would like to ask when is the best time to take an OCA certification and what are the preparations you suggest I can do.
Oracle Newbie here :)

...and I believe I'm still learning the ropes, I know you still are. I've been working with Oracle for 17 years and I haven't stopped learning yet.
I would like to ask when is the best time to take an OCA certificationThe best time to study for an Oracle certification is today, tomorrow, and whenever you have the time so long as you are working in the field. The best time to not be studying for a certification is when there is something that you need to learn that doesn't yet have an associated certification. Study until you learn that... then go back to studying for a certification.
In the IT field, if you are not learning, then you are becoming obsolete.
...and what are the preparations you suggest I can do.Read the manuals. Read white papers. Check out the Oracle Learning Library. Links to a number of certification-specific study materials are available on oraclecertificationprep.com. You have also commented in the 1Z0-051 thread this evening. The available links for that exam are available at:
