Oracle Express 6.3.4 on Win2K Install bug

Downloaded Oracle Express Server 6.3.4 build on Technet. It says its a Maintenance Release, but it needs some fixing itself. The release when 'Typical' installed on clean Win 2K with Oracle 9iR2 and OWB9i, skipping Oracle HTTP server configure, single Oracle_Home, installs successfully. But on rebooting the server, returns a scary entry point message in orb_r.dll, and Oracle Express Service fails to start. When you deinstall Oracle Express, it screws up PATH variable, throwing some apache.exe error, and Oracle HTTP server service not starting. Got the HTTP service going by modifying the oracle_apache.conf, and commenting the modose line. Reinstalling Oracle Express results in same orb_r.dll error. The orb_r.dll is probably some visibroker dll, and is 3.86MB in size, and dated 4/18/2001. Typical, as well as Complete Install, both result in same error.
And this is after I tried installing the OES 6.3.2. The 6.3.2 build when extracted into a new folder under C:, creates the Setup.exe program, but the program refused to run when double clicked. 6.3.2 never installed, and 6.3.4 doesnt work. Anyone...
Thanks,
Steve

  • How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

    Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
    Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.

    Hi
    During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
    c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
    after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
    ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
    After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
    Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
    Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

  • Oracle Express Database to Microsoft SQL

    We are trying PCM v13 and when we installed it we choose to go with the Oracle Express database, if i want to install PCM again but this time using a Microsoft SQL database can i migrate or convert the previous database ?
    Also I would like to know if there is a method to migrate the database of PCM 13 to be compatible with a PCM v14
    Thanks in advance

    The dbsetup utility includes options for both migrating from one dbms to another, and also for converting from a prior version, so the answer to both questions is yes.

  • Oracle Express 10g - cannot install on Windows 2003

    I'm trying to install Oracle Express 10g on Windows 2003. On this machine already works MS SQL2005 server.
    The installation starts ok but after copying files installer disappears whitout any message (in that moment an icon on desktop should be created, but it's not) All files copied first by installer are deleted upon it finishes it's work. From the same package I installed Express on Windows XP and then there was everything ok.
    I checked install log but it didn't tell me much. It looks more or less the same as the log file from succesful installation until bolded line:
    MSI (s) (30:A4) [15:02:44:281]: User policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
    MSI (s) (30:A4) [15:02:44:281]: Machine policy value 'DisableRollback' is 0
    Action ended 15:02:44: InstallFinalize. Return value 2.
    On successful installation the return value is 1. But it doesn't tell me anything. Also in event logs I got only mssinstaller information (event 11708)
    Product: Oracle Database 10g Express Edition -- Installation operation failed.
    Do anyone experienced such problem?
    Regards,
    Piotr

    You may want to check Event ID: 11708.

  • Lsnrctl services does not show service XE - new install of Oracle Express

    It's a time-consuming and problematic installation of Oracle Express 11g, but for the moment just one question: why isn't service XE showing up in lsnrctl services? Here's that output, with Service XE missing:
    Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC1)))
    Services Summary...
    Service "CLRExtProc" has 1 instance(s).
    Instance "CLRExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    Handler(s):
    "DEDICATED" established:0 refused:0
    LOCAL SERVER
    Service "PLSExtProc" has 1 instance(s).
    Instance "PLSExtProc", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
    Handler(s):
    "DEDICATED" established:0 refused:0
    LOCAL SERVER
    The command completed successfully
    listener.ora is:
    LISTENER =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)
    tnsnames.ora is:
    XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    slqnet.ora is:
    SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE)
    NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH = (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)

    Well, I think this is progress, attempting to connect in sqlplus gives the error I had in SQL Developer when I had service XE showing up in lsnrctl services (that was the 2nd installation, now on the 3rd)
    SQL> connect system/xxxxxxx
    ERROR:
    ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
    Process ID: 0
    Session ID: 0 Serial number: 0
    So, couldn't connect and no luck with alter system register.
    Yes, I should be OK with 127.0.0.1, both client and server are my home PC. Thanks for the idea of testing with no listener.ora at all - I renamed and moved listener.ora, for this interesting result: in sqlplus I either get the same ORA-01034 and ORA-27101, or 2 pages of a sqlplus help file, depending on the logon syntax used. I'm sure that's user error. In SQL Developer New Database Connection Test I get ORA-12514.
    I've been closely following the thread from Marco ORA-01034 , ORA-27101 in windows Domain, and have learned a lot from you, Srini and TSharma. I think I'm leaning towards the possibility of a bad install. Task Manager shows process oracle.exe running (this may not mean much) and Services shows all the Oracle services Started. I don't know enough to interpret what I'm seeing for oracle.exe in Windows Process Explorer, although it looks like something is running. But suppose, hypothetically, that it was a bad installation, how would I test that?
    Looking at the log files, I'm seeing clsc1.log is nearly identical to what Marco reported in that other thread:
    Oracle Database 11g Clusterware Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production Copyright 1996, 2010 Oracle. All rights reserved.

    [    CLSE][3228]clse_get_crs_home: Error retrieving OLR configuration [0] [Error opening olr registry key. The system cannot find the file specified.
    This may be another clue, the listener log file has this after a SQL Developer New Database Connection Test (test of Connection Type TNS + Network Alias XE, XE shows up just fine in the dropdown). My computer name is newamptron, and that host_addr IP is my DSL provider. Note the completely random port 2051. Essentially same message data with or without listener.ora in place.

  • How do I install JAVA JVM, JServer and XDK in Oracle Express Ed database

    IF I query with SELECT COUNT(*) FROM all_objects WHERE object_type LIKE 'JAVA%'; I get a count of 0.
    I see no DBMS_JAVA package.
    How can I install JAVA JVM, JServer and XDK in the Oracle Express Edition database?
    I see no initjvm.sql, initxml.sql and xmlja.sql scripts. There are catjava.sql and catexf.sql scripts in the rdbms/admin folder.

  • How to install Oracle Spacial with Oracle Express Edition 10g?

    Hello,
    I'm new in Oracle Technology, I just wanted to try Oracle Spatial.
    I don't know how to get it so I've installed Oracle Express and followed this tutorial :
    http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2009/06/manual-installation-of-spatial-10g.html
    They say Jserver, Oracle interMedia and Oracle XML Database have to be installed, but only one of them seems to be set up (XML DB), I can't install the others.
    If someone can help me to install Oracle Spatial, it would be nice. Bye.

    If you want to use Oracle Express Edition, note that the 11.2 version is available on beta now:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html
    Its a while since I've used XE but from what I recall you get the Locator functionality, but not Spatial. That makes sense as XE is free, which Spatial needs to be licensed.
    However, you can do an awful lot with Locator. To see if it is setup, just check if you have the MDSYS schema. Then describe the SDO_GEOMETRY type:
    describe mdsys.sdo_geometry
    If they are both there, then you're in business.

  • Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud

    Can i install oracle express edition in VMware cloud
    VMware are saying you need licence for using oracle in cloud
    but they are showing pricing for Enterprise edition 
    and i am clueless

    I've moved your question over to the Cloud Computing > Oracle Database Cloud Service space it I think it's likely the best place for it.  Certainly the community feedback and suggestions forum (not for product related questions) was NOT the correct place, as that forum is NOT for product related questions, as it states in it's forum space title.

  • Oracle Express Server wont start after install

    Hi all,
    For my sins I have to support an Oracle Express Server and am trying to get the software installed on my Dell latitude d630 laptop, am running XP SP2. When I start the service it fails and writes this to the logs :-
    [AD4     ] 3 05/14/2008 09:11:47 Security Mgr - Logon(Default)User(OESguest) fails - error: 1326.
    [AD4     ] 3 05/14/2008 09:11:47 Security Mgr - GlobalConstructor)() failed.
    So looks like it can't login as OESguest. I checked the users and I cant find this user.
    Anyone had this problem ????
    Thanks in advance,
    Brandon

    When you install express it creates three users i.e. oesdba,oesinit and oesguest. if it doesnt exists then try to create manually and see if you are able to up the express.
    change the password for oesguest at operating system level and check.
    Thanks

  • How can I login to Oracle Express Ed 11g Rel 2 on windows XP 32bit?

    I installed Oracle Express Ed 11g Release 2 32bit on windows XP 32bit and I can not login ito it. Installation asked for a password to be created at installation which I used to login with.
    The login window is started from a shortcut that installation created on my desktop. I tried to download and install three times. I went thru a SW removable before another download. The login responds with "Invalid Login Credentials"
    I have admin rights to my PC. What could be the issue?
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    What could be the issue? Could be many different causes. Mistyping the password is one, or the database could be offline but in most cases that will give a different error message. Open a command box, Start/Run/cmd and try:
    $ sqlplus /nolog
    connect system
    ... Password ... <the one used with the installer> ... Connected.
    select name from v$database;
    login window is started from a shortcut If you're talking about the Apex page, the one that opens a web browser to http://<hostname>:8080/apex and that one needs Apex credentials, not database user credentials. Apex users can be mapped to database users but that is something done via the apex administrator.
    Two database accounts "out of the box" are SYS and SYSTEM users, those are special- SYS owns the catalog, SYSTEM is a user with dba role privileges, almost as powerful within the database as the SYS user.
