Oracle Express supported by OBIEE ?

Hi,
I'm a newboe to OBIEE so would like to create a POC and play with it.
Would you know if Oracle Express is supported as the DB repository for OBIEE ?
Thanks,
Y

Hi,
Yes. XE version will be supported by BI. So you can install and use it.
Hope it helps!

  • Does Oracle Express support Java servlets?

    I am wondering if there is any functionality in Oracle XE that lets it emulate the Oracle Application Server. I am spefically looking for mod_plsql and j2EE(or .jsp and servlet) properties. An .ear file needs to be deployed into an application in the server.
    Does Oracle XE have any such service/ability?

    Hello rthome,
    that is a good news for me. Can you provide a "how to" guide about XE's AQ access via AQxmlServlet. I am interested in:
    1. On which Application Server AQxmlServlet was tested?
    2. Where can I get missing jars that are not shipped with Oracle XE? (ORACLE_HOME/JDBC/LIB/nls_charset12.jar, ORACLE_HOME/lib/http_client.jar, ORACLE_HOME/oc4j/j2ee/home/lib/javax-ssl-1_2.jar, ORACLE_HOME/lib/servlet.jar, ORACLE_HOME/lib/xmlparserv2.jar, ORACLE_HOME/lib/xsu12.jar, etc.)
    3. Which JDK, JDeveloper versions where you using?
    Can you visit my topic:
    Oracle XE Advanced Queuing
    and see if you could point me to an answer on my problem.
    Thanks in advance

  • Using OBIEE with Oracle Express Edition Database? SOLVED

    I have a client that wants a quick demo of OBIEE. They sent us some csv files as the data source. I migrated them to Excel files for easier use, but the Excel files seem to have limitations on how I can combine the columns, such as concatenating and formatting.
    I then loaded them into an Oracle Express Edition database, assuming more "database" functionality would be available to me. I was able to load them into the Administration Tool, but Answers gives me the following error when I try to view any results from the Express database:
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).

    Thanks. I got some assistance from a co-worker that is also using Express Edition. (This is also my first use of Express Edition.)
    Here is the tnsnames entry that I created, in case it helps someone else:
    DEMO_XE =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))

  • OBIEE 11g installation over Oracle Express (XE)

    During OBIEE 11g installation we are required to cofigure connection string to DB.
    We installled Oracle Express (XE) on the same machine with default settings.
    What should be the connection string in the DB details form?
    Whether and if so, how should we configure the service in XE?

    localhost:port_used:db_service_name
    Port is usually 1521. DB Service name is the DB name that you assigned to your DB.

  • Does Oracle Express 6.3 support CWM?

    Hi there,
    Does anyone ever has any experience using Oracle Wharehouse Builder to build a data warehouse and integrate it with Oracle Express?
    I read the manual of Oracle Express Server and it supports access to RDBMS. But my case is that I already have a warehouse and would like to have it work with Oracle Express. OWB claimed it implements Common Warehouse Model (CWM) so that the warehouse can be used by other OLAP tools including Oracle Express.
    My question is which Oracle Express function could be used to import the CWM instance created by OWB? Appreciate your help.

  • Is the Oracle Expression Filter supported on ca be used in an XE version?

    Hi everybody.
    Is the Oracle Expression Filter feature supported for the Oracle Database XE ?. According to documentation, this is a feature available only to Standard (Standard Edition One i guess) and Enterprise Edition. However, i can see the script catexf in the rdbms/admin directory in my XE Oracle Home.
    Thanks in advance ...!

    Hello,
    Expression Filter depends on some functionality that is not included in XE. So the Expression Filter feature is not supported in XE.

  • Basic connection of data of oracle express with oracle BPA suite

    hello,
    by this means I ask for its aid to be able to solve the following problem, have oracle express edition and business process architect besides business process to publisher and need that both connect to the base of express edition,
    can help me? ,
    thank you very much

    If you want to load HTML file content as structured data, you have 2 basic choices.
    If the HTML is XHTML compliant, then you can process it using the XML functions and XDB features of Oracle. The likelihood that it conforms to XHTML is slight though - very few web systems and services (to my knowledge) dish up XHTML. And plain HTML is not compliant.
    The 2nd choice - well, a dirty one as you will need to find some kind of method to change HTML data into structured data. You can use a HTML parser that builds a HTML DOM - Gecko can be used for example. However, this is not a trivial exercise.
    So instead you can also look at creating code that specifically support the HTML content that you need to process (these should use a static formatting model for the same page types). You can use string processing (Perl, lex, awk, regex, etc) to extract the usable data content from the HTML file and then load that into Oracle as structured data.
    Whatever the method - if not XHTML, then you can expect a fair deal of complexity loading structured data from HTML content.

  • Connect Toad freeware with Oracle express Edition, How?

    Hello,
    Although I know that people will raise the question this is Oracle and use SQL developer... Ok I do that and that is working fine. But on my work they work with TOAD so I like to work with TOAD as well and I want get some knowledge about Toad, TNSNAMES etc.
    I've put the issue on TOAD forum as well, but till now I don't have received an answer.
    I want to teach/learn myself Oracle by working with the Oracle express edition. I have downloaded the SQL Developer and I can work with it, which means I can create a connection.
    Errors when I try to work with TOAD are:
    If i try to make a connection:
    - "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"
    If I click on TNSNames editor:
    - Access violation in address xxxxxxx at module TOAD.exe"
    I have installed oracle at D:\ORACLE_HOME. In this directory is also a TNSNAMES.ORA file.
    I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
    I'm working on my local machine with:
    - windows 7 Home
    - Oracle 32 bit client:
    - Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - "CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production"
    - TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - TOAD 64-bit freeware.
    *Questions:*
    *- Are there certain environment variables necessary? Does TOAD expect Oracle at a certain directory?*
    *- Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?*
    *- 32-bit Oracle client will working with the 64-bit TOAD freeware?*

  • Oracle Express Performance

    Hi,
    We are using Oracle Express 6.3.2 & Oracle 8.1.5 for a decision
    support system that we are building.
    We are using a server with 2GB RAM, Dual CPU( 550MHz) along with
    more than 100 GB HDD.The OS being used is Windows NT enterprise
    edition server 4.0.On which both Oracle Relational database and
    Express express server resides.
    The building of multi-dimensional database(MDDB) doesn't take
    time, we are using around 9 dimensions with total data in MDDB
    being in the range of 5- 10 Lakhs records.The building time is
    about 3 minutes.
    However, the running of an application(XPJ) based on the MDDB
    takes lot of time. The report takes about 2 Minutes to appear
    and situtation is even worse in what-if analysis kind of
    reports!.The MDDB is being accessed from Windows NT Client
    workstation 4.0 with 128 MB RAM.
    We have read Oracle Express Performance Tuning and Database
    Design Guide which is available from both Oracle Technology
    Network (technet.oracle.com) and Metalink, however it doesn't
    seem to be of much help.The sparsity etc. have been taken care
    of by us.
    CAN ANYBODY PROVIDE ASSISTANCE ON THIS ISSUE OR IS IT NORMAL
    THING TO EXPECT FROM ORACLE EXPRESS????...., .Request someone to
    respond to this issue, as it very urgent & bothersome to us.
    Thanks

    Dear Friend,
    I am trying to configure reports for express data and in this regard I have done the following :
    1.Machine A having reports 9i Developer suite Release 2 and Pluggable Express Connection Editor installed on Windows 2000 professional.
    2.Machine B having which Express Server 6.3.4 installed on Windows 2000 professional.
    3.In Machine A created user OESDBA with Administrator privilige.
    In the reports I am able to connect to the Express Server and attach the database and choose the measure.Once all the other steps are done I am able to print the data on the reports.
    But if I use a parameter form in which I give the HOST,USER and PASSWORD then substitute the same in the express_server parameter value in the AFTER PARAMETER FORM trigger block then the report gives an error saying that
    Express query contains incorrect,missing or damaged information.
    How to solve this error ?
    Can you please help.

  • Oracle Express 10g with driver 10.2.0.1 - need to update to 10.2.0.5

    Hi,
    I am not sure if this is the correct place for this question but its where I have seen some other discussions on drivers.
    I have Oracle Express 10g installed on my pc, and some work servers and am getting some errors about memory issues and came across this message and decided to try the solution here too - Re: Attempted to read or write protected memory
    I have the 10.2.0.1 driver on the clients I am running and the app has 10.2.0.4 (I think) and so decided that updating the clients drivers might solve the problems as described in that thread.
    I have downloaded the instant client basic and odbc for windows x32 but am unsure what I need to do next as I have Oracle Express installed. I couldnt find one specifically for Express 10g.
    Do I have the correct drivers downloaded and how do I install them into odbc ?
    Many thanks, George.

    My understanding is that to be a MetaLink subscriber you have to be an Oracle customer or subscribe for Oracle support services. Since Oracle is only one of the many databases we support, and because our sole objective with Oracle is compatibility testing, it's unlikely that we will become subscribers unless it's essentially free.
    Oracle is tangential (not core) to our own offerings, so we don't have a pressing need for support. Is there some avenue for people in our shoes?

  • Using restore points WITHOUT flashback possible (in Oracle Express versio)?

    For development I am using Oracle Express 10g version rather than Enterprise version.
    Unfortunately the "Flashback" feature is NOT available in Express version (only in Enterprise).
    I can CREATE a RESTORE POINT but I can NOT go back to it with a Flashback instruction like
    FLASHBACK DATABASE TO RESTORE POINT myrp234;
    Is there a workaround for this in Oracle Express?
    Being able to CREATE a RESTORE POINT is useless if I cannot go back to this RP.
    So I guess there must be another way?

  • Oracle Express Database - Windows x64

    At the risk of being seriously repetitive, I'll post a question I have seen in various forms for approximately 3.5 years. The user community needs to have a specific, fact-based answer to the problem of no x64 support on Windows. In several threads one can find via Google, people purporting to be Oracle representatives claim a supported version will be available "soon". Soon in my neck of the woods generally means a time frame less than 3 years, but what do I know. Can someone please, please provide a definitive statement of direction on this issue, and assuming this is coming "soon", it would be overwhelmingly wonderful to have a specific date. My company plans/desires/hopes to release software that would embed an Oracle Express db, and frankly I'm about to throw in the towel if I can't get some visibility to this question. As I've heard from many ex customers, "there's always Sql Server".
    Regards, Roger Carter, President, DBConnect Solutions, Inc.

    Thanks for the update. I followed up with Oracle internally via our Oracle Partnership channel, and they checked with the VP of development responsible for XE. The official response is "there is no date where this will be provided for Windows x64. It is, however, under consideration." In my 25+ years of working with Oracle, I will give you my translation - it is not going to happen anytime soon, and to your point, it will probably be version 12 before you see anything. For us, this is a huge disappointment, and it means we will be abandoning many thing with Oracle. It's my view that they don't care about this vertical one bit.

  • Invoking Sample Java Graphs thro Oracle Express 6.3.2

    We have installed Oracle Express 6.3.2 to develop OLAP web application.
    At the outset we tried to invoke sample Java Graph Pages created
    using the samples.db after setting the page as JAVATABLE type through the link http:\machineid\oew-install\sample\index.html.
    oew-install is the virtual directory that points the path -
    oxhome\olap\oes632\owa632
    We could only view the OLAP cube as HTMLTABLE type.
    Where are we wrong in not viewing the Graphs???
    Have we missed anything during installation??

    Hi Aneel
    Thanks for your support.
    As per your sugessions We have checked the browser options, we could not find the Java 2 option but we had three options under microsoft VM which are as given below
    1. Java Console Enable
    2. Java Login Enable
    3. JIT compiler for virtual macine enabled.
    We have checked 1 and 3 options and restarted the IE browser still we could not succed in getting the Java Graphs in Sample appication.
    More over as asked by you the version of Java console is "Microsoft (R) VM for Java, 5.0 Release 5.0.0.3234"
    With netscape it was showing "Applet owagraph can't start : Error"

  • Oracle Express 6.3.2

    Hi
    I would like to see the sample Charts/Graphs using oracle express thinclient. I have installed this software on WIndows2000 and Orclce APache server is configured for Express webagent.
    Express Web Agent supports both HTML tables (keyword HTMLTABLE) and Java tables (keyword JAVATABLE). The Javatable and HTMLtable related files are kept in the directory below.
    C:/OEXHOME/OLAP/OES632/OWA632/sample/
    After selecting the option and i am not able to see the charts/graphs. Could anyone tell me anypatches to be installed to get the charts..
    Thanks
    Narasimha.

    There is no additional patches you need to install in order to see graphs.
    Even if you choose HTML tables as the default table type, you should still see java graphs. We don't have a html based graph.
    Could you let me know if you are seeing any errors when you are trying to display the graphs?
    Also which browser and version you are using.
