Old ORACLE EXPRESS on XP

Hello,
Did anyone install the old "Oracle Express" on a Windows XP (or even Windows 2000) system.
Oracle Express V6.2.0.2
I am wondering if it is possible !
Regards
JP P

I try to manually log intoo the database via the command line and it cannot connect to the database at all. Do you get any error?
Oh, and the services are running and I'm in the Administrator group for the machine. I've installed all manner of software on the computer, so there're no system policies preventing this one.Try adding your user to the ora_dba group.

Oracle Express(Analytical workspace?) and Oracle warehousebuilder

Can somebody please explain when and why to use
Oracle Express(Analytical workspace?) and Oracle warehousebuilder.
When should each of these tools be used?

Oracle Express is an old, de-supported product that has been replaced by Oracle Database OLAP Server http://otn.oracle.com/products/bi/olap/olap.html.
Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) is a data integration design and management tool. One of OWB's areas of functionality is enabling OLAP.

How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
Sigve

Hi
Thanks for Swift reply.
Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
Are the A1088 now useless?
The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
Please advise
Regards
Sigve

How can I login to Oracle Express Ed 11g Rel 2 on windows XP 32bit?

I installed Oracle Express Ed 11g Release 2 32bit on windows XP 32bit and I can not login ito it. Installation asked for a password to be created at installation which I used to login with.
The login window is started from a shortcut that installation created on my desktop. I tried to download and install three times. I went thru a SW removable before another download. The login responds with "Invalid Login Credentials"
I have admin rights to my PC. What could be the issue?
Please help.
Thanks.

What could be the issue? Could be many different causes. Mistyping the password is one, or the database could be offline but in most cases that will give a different error message. Open a command box, Start/Run/cmd and try:
$ sqlplus /nolog
connect system
... Password ... <the one used with the installer> ... Connected.
select name from v$database;
login window is started from a shortcut If you're talking about the Apex page, the one that opens a web browser to http://<hostname>:8080/apex and that one needs Apex credentials, not database user credentials. Apex users can be mapped to database users but that is something done via the apex administrator.
Two database accounts "out of the box" are SYS and SYSTEM users, those are special- SYS owns the catalog, SYSTEM is a user with dba role privileges, almost as powerful within the database as the SYS user.

How to use unixODBC with Oracle Express on Ubuntu 8.10?

I downloaded Oracle Express a couple of days ago, so I am totally new to Oracle.
I tried connecting via unixODBC, using dsn=oracledsn, user=dba, password=abcd and received error info:
1: st=01000, nerr=0, msg=
[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib '/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1' : file not found
but the shared 'so' library actually does exist at the path above. I also set
ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini;export ODBCINI and immediately checked it was in the environment.
The .ini files are:
/etc/odbcinst.ini
[OracleExpressdrv]
Driver = /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1
Description = Oracle 10g express driver
/etc/odbc.ini
[ODBC Data Sources]
oracledsn = Oracle Express DSN
[oracledsn]
Driver = OracleExpressdrv
Note: The dsn and the driver names are enclosed within square brackets but came out as web links above in the preview.
After many hours of googling I have not been able to find how to connect via ODBC to a local (on my PC) Oracle Express.
Advice would be most welcome.

hello
I have the same problem. My system is Fedora 11
I set the odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini files as you mentioned. I also set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH :
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/
when I try to connect using isql, I get that error:
[01000][unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib '/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/lib/libsqora.so.10.1' : file not found
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect
I couldn't figure out what I am missing.
May someone help please?

I am trying to find out if I can upgrade my old airport express from WEP to WPA2? If so, how do I do that?

I am trying to find out if my old Airport Express can be upgraded from WEP to WPA2? If so, does anyone know how to do this? I have a new PC for work reasons and I cannot get online with my WEP password. I realize now this is why my family and friends who bring PC's into the house cannot connect - I need WPA2 for PC, and besides, I should upgrade anyway as this is more secure than WEP. Thanks for any help!

Clone your system.
Install the 10.6.8 Java update.
Clone back from your clone you made before installing the update when finished.

Old airport express not recognized by airport utility

Mine is a two part problem. I was having issues with my old Airport Extreme Base Station. I was dramatically losing data transfer speeds just 20-30 feet from its location. I also noticed that signal strength no longer made it upstairs to the master bedroom. I thought that after 6 years, it finally died on me. I purchased a brand new Netgear dual band 5G router and performance improved but I still am having difficulty with the non-5G band upstairs. (I understand that 5G doesn't travel as far but is faster. I thought it would be better to use my other network for devices upstairs.) I still have the Airport Extreme and believe it or not, a really old Airport Express. I've tried to use both to extend the range of my non-5G network and have failed miserably at both. The Airport Extreme keeps giving me problems during set up to extend range and my Airport Utility doesn't even support the Express. (see photo)
Any suggestions?

Two separate issues here:
I still have the Airport ExtremeThe AirPort Extreme would not be compatible with a Netgear router if you are trying to "extend" or "repeat" the signal from the Netgear wirelessly.
The reason.....Apple designed their "extend" feature to only work with other Apple routers, so it would be extremely unlikely that this feature would work with a 3rd party router for the purpose that you ask about.
If you are able to permanently connect the Extreme to the Netgear router using a permanent wired Ethernet cable connection, then the Extreme could be configured to provide additional wireless coverage in that manner.
Airport Utility doesn't even support the Express. (see photo)
That would be correct if you have the older A1084 or A1088 versions of the AirPort Express. To confirm, locate the model number on the side of the Express.....hard to see....you may need a magnifying glass to see the number.
It will take a Mac running the older Leopard or Snow Leopard operating system, or a PC with AirPort Utility installed to be able to administer the older Express.
Unfortunately, this version of the Express does not even have an "extend" feature, to it too would also need to be permanently wired to the Netgear or the Extreme if you need more wireless coverage from the Express.

Oracle Express Server v.6.3.1.0 installation problem

I downloaded oes6301nt.exe - Oracle Express Server - NT (118MB) from the Oracle web site, unzipped it and start using Universal Installer to install it for stage/product.jar. I specified Oracle Home as OraExpress81 and path as F:\Oracle Express\olap and chose a typical installation.
At about 98% completion, I got an error: Invalid Search Spec or no DLLs found F:\Oracle*.dll on a error meassge box with an OK button. I clicked the OK button and the installation went to 100% and gave me a message "The installatio of Oracle Express Server was successful. I then re-booted the machine.
But when I tried to run the Express Instance Manager, it wouldn't start. It just blinked for 5 sec then quited.
I checked the programs, the installed programs are:
Program -> OracleExpress81 ->Application Development ->INTYPE File Assistant
NetWork Administration -> Net8 Assistant
Net8 Configuration Assistant
Net8 Easy Config
Express Instance Manger
Express Server 6.3.0 -> Express Instance Manager
Express Language reference
Could you please tell me what could probably be wrong with the installation. Thanks for your help in advance.

Do I need an ethernet switch or new router for IP camera setup with old Airport Express

Hello,
I am trying to setup a third party Foscam IP camera to my network so that I can ultimately use it as a baby monitor, and am having some difficulty. I currently still have an old Airport Express (with one ethernet port only). This is preventing me from setting up the initial camera because I don't have another ethernet port to plug it in to on the router. I am wondering if I can just buy an ethernet switch and have it "split" the ethernet from my modem to both the camera and the Airport (I do need to check with my ISP provider if they give me two separate IP address... but if they do, would this work?).
I am fairly sure however, that my ISP provider (comcast) only provides one IP for my account. Does this mean I would have to buy a new router altogether with more than one ethernet port on it or one with a WAN port? Would I, in this case, have to plug the modem into the WAN port on the router, and then the camera to one of the ethernet ports on the router?
I consider myself fairly tech savy, but when it comes to routers, IPs, LAN, WAN, etc. I get a bit lost. This has been creating quite a headache for me and any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Sorry, but this won't work as the modem expects only a single device ... either a computer or a router to be connected to it. Unless your modem is actually a combination modem & router or gateway device, then you would need a different router to solve your networking problem.

I have read all of the similar issues on this site and I still cannot connect my airport extreme (although there is no problem with my old airport express - help...

i have read all of the numerous and similar issues on this subject. and i still cannot connect my new airport extreme. my old airport express works fine still. help. and why are there so many issues with connecting this stuff? i thought this stuff was supposed to be getting easier, not harder... thanks.

Sorry, but I have no idea on what you have read and tried so far so please forgive me for any redundancy.
Is your AirPort Extreme the only router in your current network configuration? Which exact model is it? If there are other routers being used, please provide their make(s) & model(s). Also the make & model of your Internet modem.
What is your goal with the Extreme? Is it to replace the "old" AirPort Express? Will you still be using the Express for any reason(s)?

Oracle Express 10g - cannot install on Windows 2003

I'm trying to install Oracle Express 10g on Windows 2003. On this machine already works MS SQL2005 server.
The installation starts ok but after copying files installer disappears whitout any message (in that moment an icon on desktop should be created, but it's not) All files copied first by installer are deleted upon it finishes it's work. From the same package I installed Express on Windows XP and then there was everything ok.
I checked install log but it didn't tell me much. It looks more or less the same as the log file from succesful installation until bolded line:
MSI (s) (30:A4) [15:02:44:281]: User policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
MSI (s) (30:A4) [15:02:44:281]: Machine policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
Action ended 15:02:44: InstallFinalize. Return value 2.
On successful installation the return value is 1. But it doesn't tell me anything. Also in event logs I got only mssinstaller information (event 11708)
Product: Oracle Database 10g Express Edition -- Installation operation failed.
Do anyone experienced such problem?

Oracle Express 6.3.4 on Win2K Install bug

Downloaded Oracle Express Server 6.3.4 build on Technet. It says its a Maintenance Release, but it needs some fixing itself. The release when 'Typical' installed on clean Win 2K with Oracle 9iR2 and OWB9i, skipping Oracle HTTP server configure, single Oracle_Home, installs successfully. But on rebooting the server, returns a scary entry point message in orb_r.dll, and Oracle Express Service fails to start. When you deinstall Oracle Express, it screws up PATH variable, throwing some apache.exe error, and Oracle HTTP server service not starting. Got the HTTP service going by modifying the oracle_apache.conf, and commenting the modose line. Reinstalling Oracle Express results in same orb_r.dll error. The orb_r.dll is probably some visibroker dll, and is 3.86MB in size, and dated 4/18/2001. Typical, as well as Complete Install, both result in same error.
And this is after I tried installing the OES 6.3.2. The 6.3.2 build when extracted into a new folder under C:, creates the Setup.exe program, but the program refused to run when double clicked. 6.3.2 never installed, and 6.3.4 doesnt work. Anyone...

Steve

Corrupt Data1.cab in Oracle Express 10g Universal for Windows

Hello Oracle Folks,
I downloaded several times Oracle Express 10g Universal for Windows (OracleXEUniv.exe) and tried to install it and I get every time the same error message: "Error 1335. The required file "Data1.cab" is corrupt and cannot be used ...". When I download the Western European Edition (OracleXE.exe) the installation works! I downloaded the file on different local disks to exclude the risk that my disk is damaged.
Can you please check if this download is sane!
Thanks and best regards Thomas Mayr

Amazing reply Hans.
I have seen some arrogent smart mouth answers in my time. But this really takes the cake. Also judging from the icon you are some kind of employee of oracle. Wow! Now that shows respect for your users.
Sorry to disappoint you - I am not an employee of Oracle. Much of your rant is irrelevant.
I am simply a person who has volunteered enough time to provide over 8,000 repsonses in these forums and many more in other forums.
Many, many, many of the questions are pure repetition due to the extreme laziness, incompetence or inability to do basic thinking by the questioners. There are also a lot of questions by 'newbies' who have obviously made an attempt to research the problem.
My approach to answering questions is simple and two-fold:
- make the person angry enough, or aware ennough, that they will think a bit when asking the next question;
- if they ask a question intelligently (http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html) I usually am convinced to help.
(And yes, I do take longer breaks when I find myself being frustrated enough to provide answers like the above.)
The stupid installation program for your stupid database was supposed to check the version of the Operating System. Anyway how does the operating system version matter if a cab file is corrupted? which was incidently packed in that stupid download link which you have happily given to all customers all this time. I was hoping to find that since you guys are too lazy to make the installation file properly you might have atleast bothered to put up a download link for that stupid Data1.cab. But nooo... The 'stupid installation program' is indeed that - a stupid installation program. It does a certain amount of checking, but definitely not enough. In that I do agree with you. It was also released too early - basrely understands how to spell Vista.
Also, there is an assumption by Oracle that the person downloading reads the documentation, especially the installation guide, that is available at the same location as the download. It is amazing and extremely disappointing to note how many people will not even attempt to look at the link.
The real sad part for me is that I frequently download software (and did again in this case) to verify that the user has a legitimate complaint. The 'data1.cab' that I received was not corrupt. Therefore I conclude the original poster made some huge assumption that is likely invalid. Now, I did install into an XP machine, and that could make a difference.
As for the 'you guys' statement - perhaps you should take that up with Oracle or an Oracle employee. Directing at me is an unsubstantiated assumption on your part. <g>
>
I wasted some time thinking I would check out the db for development, got the same error and after seeing your mealy mouthed response to that poor guy who was asking a valid question, I think I won't bother anymore. You see, there is this amazing thing called Linux and MySQL..
Yup. You could easily go there. Shows yet another assumption. (In fact, my company is centered around Linux and Oracle. And I have made a conscious decision, based on 3 decades of experience, to toss MySQL and stick with Oracle. And now that Sun, which owns MySQL, seems to be on the auction block, the future of MySQL is definitely up in the air.)
However, given how many assumptions you make and how valid they are, you may find it easier to stick with MySQL. Oracle Express edition potentially could save huge buckets of time and effort in the long run, but it does require reading, research and other skills to get up to speed.
Now, as to your problem
1) This is not the forum to discuss issues with installation. (If the problem is traced to the download source, then this is the right spot.)
2) There is a dedicated forum for Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Express Edition (Oracle Database Express Edition (XE)
3) You are absolutely correct that the installer should be smart enough to check the OS. It does not.
4) Since it does not, and since there are differences, knowing which version AND edition of Windows (or which Linux distro and release) is critical to troubleshooting.
