ORA-03212

Question

Been fighting to install Application Express, and finally thought I had everything in place, only for a new issue to arise...
I'm running on Windows XP with 10.2.0.1; my APEX installation status is VALID (executing SELECT STATUS FROM DBA_REGISTRY WHERE COMP_ID = 'APEX').
When I attempt to navigate to http://server:7777/pls/apex, in the access log I see:
<font face=courier>
10.38.40.80 - - [19/May/2008:11:38:14 -0400] "GET /pls/apex HTTP/1.1" 302 5
10.38.40.80 - APEX_PUBLIC_USER [19/May/2008:11:38:15 -0400] "GET /pls/apex/apex HTTP/1.1" 404 328
</font>
I have enabled http server logging, and get the following in my log.xml file:
<font face=courier>
<MESSAGE>
<HEADER>
</HEADER>
<CORRELATION_DATA>
</CORRELATION_DATA>
<PAYLOAD>
<MSG_TEXT>mod_plsql: /pls/apex/apex HTTP-404 ORA-03212: Temporary Segment cannot be created in locally-managed tablespace
</MSG_TEXT>
</PAYLOAD>
</MESSAGE>
</font>
The temporary table space I assign to the apex users is of TYPE TEMPORARY - because my system tablespace is locally managed, I cannot make a dictionary managed tablespace (and I wouldn't want to).
<font face=courier>
SQL> SELECT U.USERNAME, U.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE, T.CONTENTS, T.EXTENT_MANAGEMENT
2 FROM DBA_USERS U, DBA_TABLESPACES T
3 WHERE U.TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE = T.TABLESPACE_NAME and u.username LIKE 'FLOWS%'
4 /
USERNAME TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE CONTENTS EXTENT_MAN
FLOWS_030100 APEXTEMP TEMPORARY LOCAL
FLOWS_FILES APEXTEMP TEMPORARY LOCAL
</font>
I've not been able to find anyone reporting a similar issue, so was wondering if anyone has any ideas, at least ideas for tracing to identify what is causing this.

Answer 1

Answered my own question...issue was not with the FLOW% users, but the APEX_PUBLIC_USER - had not set it to use the appropriate temporary tablespace.
Now at least have an Apex login page, although Visual Studio detects an error in the page and asks me to debug...I'll repost on a different thread if I can't solve that !
Anyway, moral of this thread is not to forget the APEX_PUBLIC_USER....
