Oracle Personal Edition, data corruption in Long datatype column

Oracle Personal Edition, data corruption in Long datatype column
DATA Corruption in Oracle 8i Personal edition
I am using a Long data type column to store a big text. In oracle Enterprise edition the data stored correctly. But in the Oracle Personal Edition, the Long data type column data corrupted. Some letters in the text are replaced by special character chr(0).
The following data has been taken from a column (Which is of data type LONG).
1. In the first one column name Template_ID stored correctly but in the second one T is missing. Some special characters has stored in that place. (Difference is in 6th Line)

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>

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 ?

Oracle 8.1.5 Personal Edition
Oracle does not support installing version 8.1.5 PE into
Windows Millennium.
As an unsupported workaround, you may add the following line
to the [compatibility95] section of win.ini prior to
installation:
Jrew=0x00080000
After setup is complete, Oracle will recommend a reboot.
There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;
Oracle may add a non-standard path statement to the
autoexec.bat file. Please modify this SET PATH
statement to use short-filenames if you find a quoted
LFN string represented as part of the path. You can
confirm that the path was merged successfully into the
registry after reboot by examining the PATH variable
in the registry at
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment
Symptoms of a missing Oracle path statement in the registry are that Net8 Easy Config will not launch.
Please note that Oracle does not support the use of this
product in Windows ME, but have authorized these workarounds

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

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

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.

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

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

Update LONG datatype columns

Can anyone point me to a description on how I can update a column of datatype LONG.
I will be using a stored procedure/cursor and need to be able to append a string variable to the end of a LONG datatype column that will have other text.
Thanks in advance,
Miller

The use of LONG has several limitations. Please refer to the SQL Reference for details.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/toc.htm
From the documentation:
You can reference LONG columns in SQL statements in these places:
n SELECT lists
n SET clauses of UPDATE statements
n VALUES clauses of INSERT statements
The use of LONG values is subject to some restrictions:
n A table cannot contain more than one LONG column.
n You cannot create an object type with a LONG attribute.
n LONG columns cannot appear in integrity constraints (except for NULL and NOT
NULL constraints).
n LONG columns cannot be indexed.
n A stored function cannot return a LONG value.
n Within a single SQL statement, all LONG columns, updated tables, and locked
tables must be located on the same database.
LONG columns cannot appear in certain parts of SQL statements:
n WHERE clauses, GROUP BY clauses, ORDER BY clauses, or CONNECT BY clauses or
with the DISTINCT operator in SELECT statements
n The UNIQUE operator of a SELECT statement
n The column list of a CREATE CLUSTER statement
n The CLUSTER clause of a CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW statement
n SQL functions (such as SUBSTR or INSTR)
n Expressions or conditions
n SELECT lists of queries containing GROUP BY clauses
n SELECT lists of subqueries or queries combined by the UNION, INTERSECT, or
MINUS set operators
Note: Oracle Corporation strongly recommends that you convert
LONG columns to LOB columns. LOB columns are subject to far
fewer restrictions than LONG columns. See "TO_LOB" on page 4-111
for more information.

No it is not and has, as far as I know, never been free.

Problem With Oracle Personal Edition On Windows XP

I am trying to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition on Windows XP Professional, Installation was successful. But when I try to login through SQL plus it says "ORACLE not available" User Id I used is Scott/Tiger and System Manager.
Even I checked the services started but some of the Oracle services are still in "starting" staus
Can any one help me in this?

Those 'starting' services must switch to 'started' before things will start to happen.
What are the machine specs? Hopefully you have a decent CPU speed (>500MHz) and amount opf memory (>512M RAM) or things can be unsufferably slow.
Is there a particularily good reason for using Oracle8i? After all, it is an unsupported and obsolete version of the database.
