Oracle Personal Edition and SQL dev. tool

I installed Oracle 10g Personal Edition on my laptop and want to use SQL Creator (SQL developer's tool/program - http://www.snefru.com/index.jsp) with it.
I'm trying to setup my SQL developers tool to connect to my local Oracle database and there is a connection wizard for the SQL program which prompts me:
1.) "Select a JDBC driver..."
2.) "Enter Host name for the server that the database is located on...."
3.) "Enter Port number that the database is listening on...."
4.) "Unique SID of the database instance..."
How can I find out 1.) - 4.) for my specific, local database?
Thanks in advance...

When you run SQL*Plus, what is the version number displayed:
C:\>sqlplus
SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.3.0 - Production on Tue Nov 22 17:11:44 2005
Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
Enter user-name:?
You woudl download the driver that matches with that release.
if you did the database install, chances are you already have the jdbc driver installed.
Do you have a directry ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib ?
Do you have files like classes*.jar in that directory?
if you do you already have the jdbc driver files.

Differences between Oracle Personal Edition and Enterprise Edition

What are the differences between the databases of Oracle Personal Edition and the Oracle Enterprise Edition..?

I have just looked at the metalink document and see that Oracle are still blatantly lying about the availability of analytical functions.
We chose standard edition on the basis of this document and were very annoyed to find we could not use analytical functions.
The document is about 8i. Of course we are all on 9i these days aren't we ?

Trying to get Oracle Personal Edition 8i & Developer2000 to work together

Hi
Can anyone help me.
I have installed both Developer 2000 and Oracle Personal Edition 8.1.6 on NT4 in that order. I cannot connect to the database through Developer 2000 and sql prompt. I receive the following erors at the sql prompt, although sql was working originally.
ORA - 12545: Connect failed because target or host does not exist.
ORA - 01034: Oracle not available
null

Hi,
Try to run listener manually:
LSNRCNTL.EXE start
Then, enter your SID in the sid field while connecting.

Oracle Personal Edition Number Of Connections

How many connections can Oracle Personal Edition Support? We are looking to create some development test machines where we will need 10-20 connections per test server and we do not want to have to pay 10K+ per CPU for these machines.
Any idea if we can use Personal Edition to satisfy this need?
Thanks

Hi,

Just modifying the processes parameter is sufficient. The sessions parameter will be adjusted automatically.

Oracle Personal Edition installation on Windows ME

I had this same problem with this same installation on ME. After a smooth installation with PO 8, I suspected spaces in path names, since the 8i install appears to be java based. If you go into windows regedit (Win ME does not read from autoexec.bat), and search for oracle home, and all 'home' paths you have tried specifying in the initial 8i install interface, upon editing your oracle home path, you may find a space character discreetly tucked at the end of that path name. What's more, just correcting your paths through regedit may only temporarily solve your problem. Also search/correct your prompt. A quick verification of this is if, from a dos window, your prompt looks like:
C:\> _
(notice the space between the > and _ characters) I think this is either a MS bug, or an image disk install bug, and suspect, after reading of your same problem, it comes from MS.
Hope this helps,
KJ

Hi,
I am assuming that Oracle 8i Personal Edition for Windows 98 will work on Windows Me too. First of all, is this assumption valid ? If yes, then I am facing a problem right at the start of the installation. After specifying the File location path (For source path, the default is 'C:\Program Files\Oracle\STAGE\products.jar'. I have not changed this. For destination path,(oracle home path), I am specifying it as 'C:\Program Files\Oracle'. After this I get an error as follows - 'There was a problem in accessing the staging area. Please make sure the specified values for 'Source' and 'Destination' are valid.'
I am stuck up at this point. Please let me know what could be the problem.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I can compile objects with SQL dev tool but not with a direct sql

hi,
This is a bit weird - I'm probably not familiar enough with Oracle's compilation process...
I'm creating a some functions / procedures / triggers. When I run the script to create them with Oracle's SQL Developer tool, usually they become immediately valid, and if not then I can manually right click them and choose Compile, and they're compiled correctly and become valid.
However, when running them with command line tools, they're uncompiled after created. I'm trying compile them with
ALTER PROCEDURE / FUNCTION / TRIGGER MySchema.MyFunction COMPILE;
and it always returns
Error starting at line 1 in command:
alter function MySchema.MyFunction compile
Error report:
SQL Command: alter function
Failed: Warning: execution completed with warning
alter function MySchema.MyFunction succeeded.
and the object remains uncompiled / invalid.
also tried with DBMS_... utils and got the same results.
Same with adding things such as PLSQL_WARNINGS = 'ERROR:ALL' to the stmt
But when I go in SQL Developer to the object, right click and click Compile, it compiles fine w/o warnings / errors and becomes valid.
Is there anything else I should run other than this alter..compile? Is SQL Dev tool doing something different than "alter function ... compile" when right clicking and object and clicking "Compile"?
thanks!

hi,
I'm having difficulties connecting with SQL Plus, since it seem to require at startup some admin user/password, which I don't have at the moment. Also tried to give it in command line the db name and params and it still require this pass... Will try to get it...
But again, when I'm right clicking the object in SQL Developer and click Compile, it compiles fine and becomes valid. After doing that, running
alter function mySchema.MyTestFunction compile;
passes with
"alter function mySchema.testfunction succeeded"
If I run this sql before doing compile with SQL Developer, it fails with what I posted before.
I wonder if SQL Developer does things other than the above compile stmt.
If I right click on Functions in SQL Dev and click Compile All or Compile Invalid, I can see the sql it about to generate, and it's the same as I tried - and fails as well... Only when right clicking the object and Compile it works...
A test func I tried, for example:
create or replace
FUNCTION testFunction(n in number)
RETURN NUMBER
IS
BEGIN
RETURN n + 1;
END;

De-installing Oracle personal edition

I've installed Oracle Personal Edition 8.1.6 on a D: drive of an NT 4.0 machine. As it turned out, I really needed to install it on C:. So, I attempted to de-install it from D:. When done with the de-installation using the Universal Installer (and it told me that all the products were removed), I rebooted and proceeded to install on the C: drive. The installer told me that there still was an instance on the D: drive. I attempted to remove all Oracle-related keys from the registry, with no success. There are two services still on the system (listener and the one for the instance). How do I cleanly delete all traces of the previous install?

first you had to stop all oracle stuff of services then you have to de-install the things. Oracle has one disadvantage is if you remove all stuff from regedit then also it'll give some problem for installation.
So better you install o.s. again do the installation it'll work prefectly.
cheers then.

There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;

Oracle Personal Edition, data corruption in Long datatype column

DATA Corruption in Oracle 8i Personal edition

Perhaps if you asked about a specific error instead of a vague question about the differences between two obsolete editions of Oracle, you would have received a response more to your liking.
