Oracle 11G Dev - Local Version stops working

Hi All,
I've had a local version of Oracle 11G running on my laptop for a number of weeks, I set it up once and it's worked ever since. Until this week.
I tend to work in various locations, sometimes I am working with no network, other times I VPN to a network using a Mobile Broadband dongle, other times I use a LAN to access the network.
The problem I'm having is that my console service has stopped working and whilst the listener is running i'm getting an error when I test the connection, doing a TNSPING comes back with an error yet this was working absolutely fine yesterday - I've simply logged off a vpn and logged back on.
I saw another post here about making a copy of a directory in ..\j2ee\ and putting 'localhost' in the directory name in place of the computer name. This seemed to work yesterday but am getting the same issue today where I can't connect to the local db running on my laptop.
I can reconfigure the listener each time I change network access method but it seems bonkers to have to do that each time.
So have a feeling I've done something wrong because I can't see it being this much hassle to run a local copy of oracle.
can someone please help me get a robust version working which doesn't care if you run on no network, a vpn or a LAN?
cheers!!

Pl post details of exact OS and database versions. If you are using a certified version of Windows, have you installed the loopback adapter ?

Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working

Just now finished the 11g installation.But im not able to open BI Administrator.Im getting this error.Please help.
"Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.Please close the program"

I followed the below steps(taken from this forum) for installing OBIEE11g 64 bit version in a 64 bit machine.Installation completed successfully.But not able to open BI Administration tool.Any suggestions???
There is not a particular 64bit installation. I think it works like this: if you are using a 64bit JDK the apps server is also running 64 bit.
You can find the generic jar here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html and take the generic one (http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls1033_generic.jar)
You install this by a command like this (you have to look up the documentation): java -XXm.... .... wls1033_generic.jar
Then a installer pops up.
So these were my steps:
- installed RCU
- installed 64 bits JDK (jdk-6u21-windows-x64.exe)
- installed Weblogic (wls1033_generic.jar)
- installed OBI as "software only"
- configured OBIi (config.bat you can find in <obi11g home>\Oracle_BI1\bin)
All together it does not take much longer then the 32bit install. Only some extra steps to do.

Oracle 11g installation Kernel version error

Hi
We are inprocess of installing oracle 11g on solaris 5.10. Our current Solaris 10 is with kernel version (5.10-2008.03.24.13.19). . It requires kernel version (5.10-2008.10). What patch need to be installed for us to achieve this. Please advice.
The following are the operating system requirements for Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2):
* Solaris 10 U6 (5.10-2008.10)
When I check with my OS team they says the currently have kernel patch ID 142909-17, which already Solaris 10 U9.Thus this Domain already fulfill the requirement

You could post to the Installation forum : Database Installation
But you should also log an SR with Oracle Support.

Oracle Stock Falls and Downloads Stop Working

Well, let's just skip the BS. Oracle's 9i downloads aren't working, and I'm not going to pay ANYONE to help me download a friggin file. I'm trying to HELP your company, so get you act together and get these files to download without any more problems.
Regards,
Mark

I downloaded Oracle 9i v9.0.1.1 for Windows 2000 and all 3 zip files downloaded successfully with the correct size for each one. Then I followed the directions to unzip each into its own DiskX directory and that worked fine. However, when you try to run the setup.exe file from Disc 1 it does absolutely nothing. An hourglass comes up for a few seconds but nothing happens. No process is running and nothing else works. I even tried using the autorun.exe and a similar thing happens. My system meets all the minimum requirements for 9i so I think there is either something missing in the directions or it just doesn't work.

Oracle 11g Vs previous version

Hi,
can someone please explain Oracle 9i/10g Query Execution vs Oracle 11g Query Execution features for some of the new statements introduced in 11g using CBO.

Oracle 11g-R1 Enterprise Manager Not Working

Hi to All Respected Gurus!
I am unable to access enterprise manager. When I enter https://10.0.2.106:1158/em, it gives me a window with following messages
Database Instance = Down, Host = 10.0.2.106, Port = 1521, SID = fgfc, Oracle Home= D:\app\Administrator\product\11.1.0\db1_
Listener = UP
Agent Connection to Instance = Down, Status = Failed, Details = ORA-28001: the password has expired (DBD ERROR: OCISessionBegin)
Please help me in this regard. Thanks in advance for your as usual cooperation.

Your DBSNMP password has changed or the DBSNMP has a (default) profile that forces you to change the password every xx days. I think the last is the case.
You could create a new profile with a password_life_time unlimited for the user DBSNMP or change in the default profile the password_life_time to unlimited (if security rules permit to do so).
Also see MOS note (for Grid Control): Grid Control Shows DBSNMP Account Locked ORA-28000 Or Agent Connection to Instance Failed ORA-28001 Password Expired From Database Home Page [ID 352585.1]
and https://communities.netapp.com/community/netapp-blogs/databases/blog/2011/08/10/oracle-11g--password-expires how you can create a new profile or change the default profile.
If the DBSNMP account gets locked you can unlock it by: alter user dbsnmp account unlock;

Please advice...
Thanks

Hi,
With Oracle 11g by default apex 3.2 was installed.

Oracle 11g Express: listener/DB stopped regularly ...

Dear all,
we currently use oracle DB 11g express edition on Win XP in order to do nigthly test of our product accessing the DB via a JDBC driver. After two successful nightly test communicating via JDBC doesn't work anymore due to stopped DB listener. The first error message I got was "ORA-12518, TNS:listener could not hand off client connection", I fixed it via settings up maximum processes to 450, then I got the next error message where I don't know what to do "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error". Please can you help me since I need a stable DB for nightly continuous integration tests.
Thank you in advance, Andreas.

Bumping processes would seem to be a symptom fix, not a problem fix- if a session can't get a connection because available processes are at the max, must be some client programs with a bug/glitch where they aren't letting go of their session(s).
Eg. maybe hitting an exception block, and the code never sees a "close connection" call? Until that bug (the problem) gets fixed, increasing process limits is not going to be much of a fix. Just a guess, can't know for sure without seeing the code.
Anyways, for the ora-12560 something may have gone astray (or changed?) with host network adapter settings- hostname change? IP address change? IPv6? Is the host a DHCP client? Is there more than one NIC on the host? Do both the hostname and its IP address(es) resolve correctly? (... ipconfig /all ... `hostname` ... nslookup <hostname> ... nslookup <n.n.n.n> ...)
One item to try, stop the listener and move the listener.ora file "out of the way" (eg move listener.ora listener.ora.bk) as others have suggested here before. Any RDBMS install has its default listener, named LISTENER, and if all the default settings are OK for your setup then using that should work fine. Double checking that the listener service still shows in the services applet would also be advisable, only takes a moment ... Start/Run/services.msc ...
Another possible fix for ora-12560 is setting ...HOST=0.0.0.0... in listener.ora, that is the "any IPv4" address setting, but that is advisable only if the host has one NIC, otherwise the instance would be accepting connections at an address you might not want made available to remote clients.

The last version stopped working and after an upgrade, nothing works. Add-Ons are absent...it will access internet but the entire browser is messed up.

Was using version prior to latest version 16. Had a problem getting rid of Incredimail search so came here. Instead of doing the reset procedure, I uninstalled-reinstalled Firefox after exporting my bookmarks, etc. I used Revo Uninstaller. That solved the problem of the incredimail issue but went to put my usual add-on's onto browser and that's when the problems started. Last Pass log in button has a small drop down menu I have never seen before..no text just icons. At first the browser showed I had add-ons, but when I would click the options on say: Last Pass, that brought up a menu that was blank. No way to set options. Nothing works. So I reset to original. That didn't work. So...I removed the folder from my programs file and uninstalled Firefox again. Then I upgraded to the latest version...16. Same story. When I click my add-on's, it comes up to the find add-on's, essentially the browser is saying I have none installed. None of my add-on's show up at all. I am probably not making sense here but Firefox will connect and browse the web but that's about it. The add-on's I use, such as, again, Last Pass, are not there. I DO have Windows XP SP3 and my computer is up to date. Don't know if this matters, but I also have Chrome and use some of the same extensions for it that I use for Firefox.

Revo Uninstaller is just that. A simple program(s) uninstaller. When I couldn't get rid of the Incredimail search bar, I used Revo and completely uninstalled version 15 Firefox. Before doing so I exported my bookmarks, etc to another browser.
I reinstalled Firefox, put my add-on's back, just as if it were my first time using Firefox. I had a list of add-on's and extensions and plug-ins showing up on Firefox as was normal. I logged into Last Pass and when I went to set the options, the entire form on the add-on's page was blank. The drop down menu for Last Pass had some weird icons...icon of man and woman, some kind of emoticons...not sure what they were because they weren't marked and they would not do anything once clicked.
After having to copy and paste from Last Pass Vault just to get on my various sites, I reset Firefox. Same problems. I then went to my C:/program files and removed the Mozilla Firefox folder as specified by Mozilla. I then upgraded to 16. Now I don't have any add-on's, just the search for add-ons page. When I tried to add my Last Pass, Clear Preview..etc...they installed but would not show up anywhere on Firefox. I then did another clean uninstall with Revo. I did a clean install for 16 Firefox. Same thing. None of the add-ons I put back show up. I have Windows Professional Edition XP Service Pack 3 and all updates are current. I have Zone Alarm Professional Security Firewall and anti-virus, System Mechanic, Spybot Search and Destroy. I have no idea what is causing my problems. I do use Chrome for some web surfing and I do have many of the same extensions on Chrome that I use(d) on Firefox. Would that interfere? Thanks for the prompt reply!

ORACLE 11G "real time apply" not work?????

we have a database original on ORACLE 10.2.0.4 and we upgrade it to 11.1.0.7.
after that we create standby database and tried to use "real time apply" feature.
Primary database can transfer log files to standby database and standby database also can apply logs. The problem is it can NOT work on "real time apply".
Ant ideal what wrong?

*.log_archive_format='DBPMY_%r_%t_%s.arc'
log_archive_dest_state_1 = enable
log_archive_dest_state_2 = enable

There are a couple of things to look at.
1. Real time apply requires standby redo logs on the standby database. On the standby database run this query:
SELECT * FROM v$logfile where type = 'STANDBY';
if you get 0 rows back you'll need to create standby logfiles
The general guideline is to size them exactly like your redo logs but add one additional standby log to ensure it doesn't cause a bottleneck.
2. Get the size of your logfiles:
SELECT GROUP#, BYTES FROM V$LOG;
3. For example if you have 3 redo logs that are 50 MB in size, create 4 standby redo logs 50 MB each and don't multiplex them.
ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE ('/Archive/DBSBY/onlinelog/slog1.rdo') SIZE 50M;
ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE ('/Archive/DBSBY/onlinelog/slog2.rdo') SIZE 50M;
ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE ('/Archive/DBSBY/onlinelog/slog3.rdo') SIZE 50M;
ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE ('/Archive/DBSBY/onlinelog/slog4.rdo') SIZE 50M;
4. Cancel recovery on standby
recover managed standby database cancel;
5. Restart recovery using real time apply
recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect;
6. To validate that real time is working you can check a few places.
-It will say in the database alert log on standby that it's using real time apply
OR
-Check primary
SELECT status, recovery_mode FROM v$archive_dest_status where dest_name = 'LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2';
If the recovery_mode is "MANAGED REAL TIME APPLY" then real time apply is working, if it's anything else then we'll need to check more things.
NOTE that if you are going to allow your current primary to switch roles and become a standby then you'll want to create standby redo logs on primary as well
Sometimes recovery gets "stuck" and simply resetting the destination parameters can resolve it:
alter system set log_archive_dest_2='service=DBSBY valid_for=(online_logfiles,primary_role) db_unique_name=DBSBY LGWR ASYNC=20480 OPTIONAL REOPEN=15 NET_TIMEOUT=30';
There are some other things we can check next but let's start with the easiest fixes first.

ORACLE SQL Developer: DELETE Key Stopped Working???

OK, I'm an idiot, I admit it. I have ORACLE SQL Developer installed, and stupidly changed some of the menu items under Tools/ Preferences/ Code Editor. Now all of a sudden, my DELETE key does not delete, although BACKSPACE works fine. Also, the prehistoric Windows shortcut CTRL + INSERT suddenly doesn't copy any more, although it worked before in the tool, and works on everything else in Windows.
A smart person would have recorded exactly what changes they made- but I didn't.
Any idea which Preference should be changed, and what it should be changed back to???

As I said, something I picked up on the forum... just keeping track here ;-)
As for wasting time, happens to all of us. We have to find a balance between trying to solve our own problems and asking for help (in which you have to invest a fair amount of time also).
Glad to be of help,

Adobe Photoshop CS6 Beta Trial Version stopped working.

I have tried uninstalling the program, I even re installed my windows. And it is a trial version and not cracked. Is there anyone that can help me fix this problem?

While I have no recollection of seeing that, I'm fairly confident I would have done so if prompted. But, just in case I missed it, is there anyway to do it within the seven year period?
I don't see a "Registration" menu item. "Deactivate" is grayed out.
Any guidance will be most appreciated.
