Oracle 10G Express Edition No Oracle Spatial

I have been test driving 10G Express Edition. I tried to create our schema in it only to find that the mdsys.sdo_geometry datatype is unknown. It looks like Oracle Spatial is not part of Express Edition. Can anyone confirm?
SEVERE: Unsuccessful: create table ASSET_REFERENCE (ASSET_REFERENCE_ID number(19,0) not null, ASSET_NAME varchar2(256 char), ASSET_URI varchar2(256 char), SPATIAL_EXTENT mdsys.sdo_geometry, START_DATE timestamp, END_DATE timestamp, COORD_SYS_WKS varchar2(256 char), primary key (ASSET_REFERENCE_ID))
[hibernatetool] Nov 21, 2005 7:56:50 PM org.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaExport create
[hibernatetool] SEVERE: ORA-00902: invalid datatype

Oracle Spatial is an option for Enterprise Edition. It is not even available for Standard Edition and Express Edition is a subset of Standard Edition
Related - interMedia requires Java and that is not in Express. Although the Locator subset does not use Java, it is part of interMedia and therefore is also not in Express.
We are asking Oracle to reconsider and add Locator, and possibly add Java as a post-install option.

    Hi,
    10g express edition (XE) is free database version of 10g. Application Express (Apex) is already installed to it.
    Apex version that comes with XE is 2.1.
    You can upgrade it to version 3.2.1 witch is latest one. New version of Apex comes with some nice features like interactive reports.
    If you have installed XE you are ready to go developer Apex applications and practice Oracle database

  • Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition

    Hi Friends,
    I have worked on Oracle 9i but now I would like to work on Oracle 10g but confuse because there are more option for download.Which one should I go for?
    Oracle Database 10g or Oracle 10g Express Edition ?
    Or Any other option.
    Any Suggestion are welcome.
    KarTiK.

    It all depends on what exactly you are planning to use oracle for. Depending on the version, there may be found or not some features, you can see it this way:
    EE > SE > XE
    EE is a superset of SE and SE is a superset of XE. So you will find several limitation on the XE edition.
    However, even though XE is a very limited version, it cannot be underestimated, it can be used for Spatial Data projects, it works with spatial data locator, and there are several guides that show how to use it with PHP so you can start a web site. WebPLSQL is included with it, so the only limit is your creativity.
    This version can be very useful, and you can make the most of it, you may be interested in reading this article Oracle Database 10g Express Edition: Not Just for Learners
    by Lewis Cunningham.
    The XE edition is free. So you can use it without license fees and is the best suitable tool for learning, it is easy to install and setup. You can have a fully functional XE database out of the box. Once you feel more comfortable with oracle technology you can start thinking about taking the next step to a SE or EE edition.

  • How can i create a new database instance in oracle 10g express edition?

    hello everybody
    i'm a student
    i am developing a database application
    i'm using oracle 10g express edition
    to run my application i need to create another database instance
    but i didn't find any option for doing so in that product
    if there is pls tell me where it is?
    if not pls tell me how to manually create it?

    yaa i'm sure about that .
    i want one more instance of database.Can you perhaps explain why? I have a fair share of production and development servers - and not a single one of them needs to run more than one database instance.
    So I'm interested in what requirement you are trying to satisfy by using two database instances on a single platform.
    Oh yeah - if you want to create a custom XE instance (different SID, different tablespace sizes, more/less PL/SQL stuff installed, hack standard), make a copy of your XE db creation script (in your XE's +$ORACLE_HOME/bin+ and called createdb.sh ) and modify that for your needs.
    PS. even with a different SID, only a single XE instance can be run at a time - you can however have 2 different ones defined and then use one at a time (e.g. testing international settings, init param differences, etc.)

    Yes, you can have as many Oracle homes as you require and as the host can hold, as long as you are careful and disciplined with the way you manage your ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variables.

    I find that if you set up an ODBC Data Source for Oracle 10g Express Edition on Windows XP SP2 using the "Oracle in XE" driver, anything that tries to access it will crash, even the Windows ODBC Data Source Administratior if you click the "Test Connection" button.
    Having clicked the button, you get a window coming up entitled "Oracle ODBC Driver" with a yellow exclamation mark in it, with no other text in the window except for an OK button.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your comment, but I can't get onto the XE forum.
    I found http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/xe/forum.html which says:
    Forum registration is possible only by downloading and installing Oracle Database XE. After installation, click on the "Registration" link from the Database homepage.
    However I find that the "Database Homepage" does not exist.
    Choosing the Oracle XE "Go To Database Home Page" takes my browser to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex which is not available even though my oracle server is running and sqlplus can talk to it.
