Oracle 10g Express Edition Too Big
Why does Oracle 10g Express Edition require 1.5GB?
I've noticed it comes with a lot of stuff that I do not need. All I want is the database. I don't need a web server or any other stuff. I already have Apache running on Linux.
Second, why can't Oracle include the library libaio when installing on Linux? Every distribution I tried does not install this library by default.
Moreover, I don't think the Exress Edition is so Express. Is there any plans to trim it?
Why does Oracle 10g Express Edition require 1.5GB?It needs 383M for the software and config files.
After that, it's database size, including the 'master catalog'.

a web server or any other stuff. I already have
Apache running on Linux. So don't use it. Feel free to ignore the stuff it includes. Also feel free to duplicate what it does.
A lot of developers would prefer to roll their own than use someone else's code. Something about pride, or not understanding, or not being able/wiling to read docco, or job security, or ...
However, surprisingly enough ... it's not all about you. <g>

Second, why can't Oracle include the library libaio
when installing on Linux? Every distribution I tried
does not install this library by default.
Because there is no guarantee that the prerequisites are in place.
Because installing libaio is a SA decision which may have an impact on the operation of the system.
And because auto-installing such a library can make other problems happen.
Moreover, I don't think the Exress Edition is so
Express. Is there any plans to trim it?Compared to the Enterprise Edition, it is pretty trim.
Perhaps you are attempting to use the wrong product.

I saw the database page.. logged in.. went into the SQL section.. now am not able to run two or more queries at the same time.. i have given a screenshot too. Plz.. check it and reply me quickly..

Help me plz..
Prasanna.There are two possibilities:
1) Run the SQL commands, one command at a time;
2) Create a script of multiple commands, and run the script.
These are discussed in some detail in the online documentation at http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage
In particular, look at

Connecting oracle 10g express edition to jdeveloper
I am having all kinds of problems connecting oracle 10g express edition with my jdeveloper 10.1.3.3. I can query the database from my command line so I know it is set up, but for whatever reason jdeveloper will not connect with it. When I try to connect with the database through jdeveloper here is the error I keep getting:
Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection
The Connection descriptor used by the client was:
localhost:1521:ORCL
I have been all through the google results looking for an answer and have come to the conclusion that it is something with either the listerner file or the tns file, but as of yet have been unable to locate them. here are both of those files too.

Please any help would be appreciated I have been at this for days, thanks.This has to be some kind of bug with 10g express because I see lots of people having similar problems. I'm in the process of uninstalling 10g, and I will re-install it see if that makes a difference. Again if anyone has any other ideas please keep them coming because this is utter BS it shouldn't be this hard.

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?
regards,
ChaitanyaChaitanya Babu M wrote:
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.) -

Oracle 10g Express Edition Beta 3 ODBC Driver Always Crashes
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.
If you press OK, then it crashes and goes through the "Please tell Microsoft about this problem" process....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.
There's definitely nothing serving on tcp port 8080, as follows:
[dcampbel@clevo]~> telnet localhost 8080
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
