Oracle Application Express Developer Competition 2009

Hi guys,
Just wondering if many of you (looking at the 2000+ scores generally) have submitted apps to the content. Is it known if the contestant's apps will be made public after the results? It'd be interesting to see the kind of features the top 3 include into them.
Mike

They are different libraries with different features. IMHO, ExtJS is better for the layout and design and jQuery is better for widgets. The plan is to design most of the app in ExtJS and sprinkle in the odd jQuery widget when/if needed.
To be honest I've done the vast majority with ExtJS and haven't required jQuery yet but that may come. If used both I would probably use the full ExtJS library and a very stripped down version of jQuery...
Cheers

Hi,
I think you're refering to creating a "packaged application"? If so, have a look at: [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e11838/deploy.htm#CHDICGJD]

Best beginner book for Oracle Application Express?

Hello Dear members,
I've got 12 years of experience developing Oracle applications using Oracle Forms and PL/SQL, that bit I'm an expert.
But I'm torn between which book to buy to learn Oracle Application Express.
The Expert Oracle Application Express vs Oracle Apex Cookbook is my main competition.
I'm already doing the 2 day Developer guide, but want to go in a bit deeper.
All of your suggestions welcome.
Thanks
Ravi

Ravi,
If you are not at all familiar with Application Express i would reccomend getting Beginning Oracle Application Express 4 because you will find that Pro Oracle Application Express 4, Second Edition, Expert Oracle Application Express and Oracle Apex Cookbook assume you have more of an unserstanding and some parts wont make sense. I had friend of mine get an advanced book and then immediately go back and get the beginner book because it just didnt have much meaning to him.
Thanks,
Tyson Jouglet

Installing oracle application express

hi,
My administrators have installed oracle app server 10g and oracle http server is up and running on the linux server..
Do i have to download and install oracle application express on the client machine(where i have to develop the applications) or download it to the server??
Thanks

The Apex installation is essentially two things -
1) Installation of the Oracle HTTP Server (essentially Apache with the mod_plsql module installed, plus some other custom things)
2) Installation of the packages/procedures/functions into the database (you do this by connecting to the DB and running a script).
So, unless you are running the database on your laptop, you wouldn't be installing Apex on your laptop, you would be installing it from your laptop.
You can install from your laptop if you can connect to the DB from it, personally I usually prefer to install from the actual server itself, for two reasons -
1) It's generally faster since you don't need to send things across the network
2) It minimizes the chance of any networking errors part way through the install (such as someone pulling the wrong network cable out of the patchbox for example).
That's just a personal view however, you should be able to install from your laptop just fine.

Minimum resources for Oracle Application Express

Hi,
I'm new to the forum, and a bit confuse here trying to find an answer to what supposedly is a simple question:
What kind of resources do I have to have to develop and deploy screens with Oracle Application Express?
The scenario:
I have this Oracle application all created in forms that we are planning to give to our customers in a web based.
I'm looking for options to convert it and many forums are talking about how easy and inexpensive (free) the Oracle Applications Express is.
Then, talking with my main developer, he told me that in order to use it, the client need to spend quite a while in IAS (Oracle's Internet Application Server) and/or have to have the Enterprise version.
I'm looking for white papers on that and could not find any corroboration, but just texts telling that it's free and easy to use.
Any one can point me to the right directions on this issue?
Just want to know what exaclty do I need in order to use (creating and deploying) the Applications Express.
Right now I have Standar Edition 10q as well as my client
THank you

If you want to develop an intranet web application, the HTTP server that comes with Standard Edition 10q would do. However, if you are thinking of it as an internet application then you better separate DB and web server. In that case you need to have either Oracle HTTP Server or Oracle Application Express Listener. Oracle HTTP server requires a license and usually bundled with DB or an Application Server. I believe Oracle Application Server is no longer being offered/available instead web logic server is made available. The basic edition of web logic would do as all you require is Oracle HTTP Server to broker the requestes between the web and the database. As far as I know, Oracle HTTP server is not being offered standalone. As mentioned above the other alternative is Oracle Application Express Listener but requires one of the J2EE complaint web servers like web logic, Glassfish, OC4J or TOMCAT.
Hope this helps!

2 Day Plus Application Express Developer Guide - error?

Good day !
In "Oracle Database Express Edition 2 Day Plus Application Express Developer Guide" chapter 8 "How to Upload and Download Files in an Application" at the topic "Store the Document in a Custom Table" ( page 8-10, 8-11) is recommended:
6. Under Source, replace the process with the following:
IF ( :P1_FILE_NAME is not null ) THEN
INSERT INTO file_subjects(id,NAME, SUBJECT, BLOB_CONTENT, MIME_TYPE)
SELECT ID,:P1_FILE_NAME,:P1_SUBJECT,blob_content,mime_type
FROM HTMLDB_APPLICATION_FILES WHERE name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
WHERE name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
DELETE from HTMLDB_APPLICATION_FILES WHERE name = :P1_FILE_NAME;
END IF;
7. Scroll up to the top of the page and click Apply Changes.
After this I receive Error Message:

Now I can't find mistake. Please, help me ( if difficulties not so big )

Do you use Oracle Application Express (APEX) with EBS?

I am conducting a short survey to determine how you integrate Oracle Application Express with eBusiness Suite. Please take a few minutes to fill out the survey:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=54654:1:0
{We will not share information with anyone except with your explicit permission}
We believe that there are a large number of eBusiness Suite customers that are using Application Express in various ways so we are trying to quantify that and get some further information.
This is all part of a broader effort we are currently undertaking working closely with various people from the eBusiness Suite Development Team.
This survey is very important to us so please take the time to complete the survey if you use Application Express with eBusiness Suite - It is only 1 page long.
Thanks,
David

Thanks for your reply.
I did some more investigation to check what could cause this to happene, whereby the report toatal is not displayed at all for few selected paramters.
What i could analyse was that the records returned were more than 50 (Standard Setting) , which however could not fit into the page, along with that the pagination scheme was not selected. I had to make 2 changes to the Layout of the report
Pagination Scheme : Row Ranges X to Y(with Next and Previous Links)
Number of Rows : 500
This worked for me as the displayed could not be seen on the next page with Previous and next links on the report output.
Thanks,
Dips

Unable Logging in to Oracle Application Express Administration Services

I am new for DB. Installed Oracle XE, followed the instruction "Logging in to Oracle Application Express Administration Services", I can not find the login page:
http://127.0.0.1:7777/pls/apex/apex_admin
I work on the PC in which XE installed.
Where are these two files
ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\install\portlist.ini
ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf\httpd.conf
I did a search, can't find them.
Any help welcome.
Thanks.

The default port for the Apex webserver is 8080, not 7777.
To access the XE Database GUI from the Start menu, select Programs (or All Programs), then Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, and then Go to Database Home Page. (I'm assuming your on Windows)
Or try: http://localhost:8080/apex in your browser.
The files you mention relate to Apache web server. Oracle XE does not include a Apache, it's web server is built into the database. Are you sure you're following the right documentation? See http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage
Hope this helps.

Need help on installing Oracle Application express 3.2

Hi,
I had downloaded Oracle 11g database and installed the personal edition.I got the Enterprise manager login page working and also the DBConsole
I had Downloaded APEX 3.2 and wanted to install apex 3.2.I wanted to do the following scenario
Scenario 3: Install from the Database and Configure the Embedded PL/SQL
Gateway
Planning to do these steps: ( I have few questions on these steps and are below each step)
■ Running the apxconf.sql Configuration Script
Do I have to install Oracle Application express or is it already installed in 11g personal edition?
Do I have to create a seperate database or schema for this step( I have only one instance orcl1) ?■ Verifying the Oracle XML DB HTTP Server Port
Can I do this step in my current orcl1 instance,if so which user■ Enabling Oracle XML DB HTTP Server
Once I carry out these steps, Can I access the admin page for apex with https://localhost:port/apex_admin ?
Am I missing any other steps ?
Thanks

I have one idea..
Try to install again:
1) download and unzip apex_3.2 in $ORACLE_HOME
You will have:
$ORACLE_HOME/apex - old directory
$ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2 - new directory
2) in command line go to $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2/apex
run sqlplus "/as sysdba"
in sqlplus run @apexins tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
Where:
tablespace_apex is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express application user.
tablespace_files is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express files user.
tablespace_temp is the name of the temporary tablespace.
images is the virtual directory for Oracle Application Express images. To support future Oracle Application Express upgrades, define the virtual image directory as /i/.
Example:
@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
3) check installation log for errors
4) in command line go to $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2/apex
run sqlplus "/as sysdba"
in sqlplus run @apxconf
set admin password
set port
5) run @apxldimg.sql $ORACLE_HOME/apex_3.2
6) check for running listener and try to login apex: http:\\host:port\apex\apex_admin
Good luck!

How do I create "Oracle Application Express Adminstrator" in APEX 3.2.1?

Hello,
Quite the newbie so I appreciate any assistance with this.
How do create "Oracle Application Express Adminstrator" in APEX 3.2.1? I am not talking about a workspace adminstrator but an Entire APEX instance administrator or "superuser"?
I log into APEX_ADMIN as ADMIN and understand how to create a new user. But how do I grant the new user DBA or "super user" privlidges? It was easy to do when I first installed XE, I would just "check" the "DBA" when I created the user. But when I upgraded to APEX 3.2.1 the function does not seem to be there?
Thank you for any help you can provide!

Hi,
I think you can not grant DBA role from Apex anymore.
You need connect to database e.g. with SYS user and grant that role.

How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.
