HRMS application
Database 10.2.0.4
I am planning on upgrading 10gr2 to 11gr2(11.2.03) in EBS 11.5.10.2.
I was going thru document 881505.1 under Veryfy software versions, it says autoconfig latest version with 9835302 patch.
In note 165195.1 using autoconfig to manage Configurations with oracle systems under patching autoconfig, says apply patch 9525311.
which one should be applying?
9835302 patch or 9525311?
Thanks.

The doc says "Also apply patch 9835302" in addition to AutoConfig patches, so you need to apply both -- (Patch 9835302 and Patch 9535311).

Need help with upgrading my OS from 10.5.8

Need help with upgrading my OS. I havent upgraded the OS since I bought it and have version 10.5.8. Now I cant download Mountain Lion- or even Snow Leopard. When i downloaded the first version of SL- 10.6.1 it says i have to have 10.6 first and I cant find that.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:

Whilst Apple withdrew Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

Request Help With Oracle BI Apps 7.9.x development license

Request some one from Oracle to PLEASE help with the following query or help me to move the post to right forum.
I have downloaded BI Apps 7.9 to load it on top of BI EE. These are received from Development Downloads under OTN site (not eDelivery). Both these are planned as development install on one machine with sufficient specs on Windows 32 bit platform.
BI EE is loaded and starts successfully. Then switched of the services and started to load BI Apps CD1. Done it successfully. Next while starting to install Informatica PowerCenter 7.1.4 it asks product license key. Please help to know where to get this key? Also please help with any connectivity and options key, as well as those for any other products, related to this objective.
Many thanks,

Hi RAJC,
Many thanks for the suggestion. I have moved past that aspect now with this help. Have also verified that everything is working well with BI server, presentation services, scheduler server etc. Admin tool works fine.
But have difficulty connecting DAC client to the database. The login window does not bring up option to select suitable driver for connecting to Oracle Database 10.2.0.x Also, wonder what table owner name and pw will work here? are they the same as those for schema owner? that is sh.rpd etc? The BI apps version is 7.9 and BIEE is 10.1.3.3
Thanks

Help needed in 10gR2 to 11gR2 EBS Database Upgrade

Hi,
I am upgrading EBS Database from 10gR2 (10.2.0.3) to 11gR2 11.2.0.3. While going through Oracle Note Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 11gR2 [ID 837570.1], under the point 3 of "Recommendations from Source database" it says:
"Disable the custom triggers that would fire before/after DDL and enable them after the upgrade is complete."
I want to know is it compulsory to disable the custom triggers? If yes then how can I get the list of those custom triggers and disable/enable them before and after the database upgrade?
Please let me know the commands. My operating system is Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.8.
Thanks,
Abdul

Hi Srini,
Thanks for the docs.
EBS version is R12 (12.0.6) and 10gR2 (10.2.0.3).
Currently I am only upgrading EBS Database from 10gR2 (10.2.0.3) to 11gR2 (11.2.0.3) and want to use it with my current R12 version.
Currently I am following these Oracle notes:
- Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 11gR2 [ID 837570.1]
- Interoperability Notes EBS 12.0 and 12.1 with Database 11gR2 [ID 1058763.1]
I hope I am on the right track?
Regards,
Abdul

Enviroment variables after upgrade 10gR2 to 11gR2 grid

Hello,
Oracle teaches us (for example, in appendix F "How to Upgrade to Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2") that before upgrade you must unset such variables like ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID etc. So, I did it, upgrade from 10gR2 clusterware to 11gR2 grid was succesful. Now I couldn't find any info, must I restore back these variables, or what must to do with them. For example I couldn't run anything from the new grid home ("command not found"), because CRS_HOME was unset, must I just add new grid home to PATH ?

Execute the below command at OS level and verify from which home is the crsctl utility is being called
which crsctl
Ensure that the above command is being called from the correct home
If the path from which crsctl utility is being called is the correct one, then perform starce on the crsctl command and verify the starce output to check if it truly is using 10g binaries or not
If not, then try unlocking and locking the GI binaries using "rootcrs.pl -unlock" (to unlock) and "rootcrs.pl -patch" (to lock the binaries), once done verify if you are still getting the same issue or not

Urgent Request: Help With Websheet Issues

Hello.
This is an urgent request for help. I am currently developing a websheet demo and have run into several puzzling issues.
I am using APEX 4.0.1. My organization will upgrade to 4.0.2 in several months.
Issue 1:
I am trying to create a file annotation to be associated with several rows in a data grid I created. When I browse to the .xls file to be uploaded and then click "Apply", a stripped wait bar appears indicating that the file is being uploaded. Or so I thought. Instead, that stripped bar sits there FOREVER. After 30 minutes waiting for a very simple two-row .xls file (first row is the column headers followed by a row of data - simple integers), I finally clicked the "Cancel" button. The file was not uploaded.
I have repeated this several times, and even closed/re-opened my browser. Same results. Even tried a simple .txt file. Still no good.
I am running IE 8.x I even tried the same thing in FireFox 3.6.1. Same behavior.
Issue 2:
I also created a Note annotation. After entering some simple text (about 10 words) and clicking the "Apply" button, the page displays the following error:
Sun, 2 Jan 2011 22:18:44 GMT wwv_flow.show: SIGNATURE (parameter names) MISMATCH VARIABLES IN FORM NOT IN PROCEDURE: F21,F22,F23,F24,F25,F26,F27,F28,F29,F30,F31,F32,F33,F34,F35,F36,F37,F38,F39,F40,F41,F42,F43,F44,F45,F46,F47,F48,F49,F50,F51,F52,F53 NON-DEFAULT VARIABLES IN PROCEDURE NOT IN FORM:
I then click the previous breadcrumb link which take me back to my data grid I then click the pencil "Edit" icon for the row for which this Note is associated and, to my surprise, the Note with my entered text is there. APEX did, in fact, create it. However, not without displaying this error message which I'm sure would be rather intimidating to our end users trying to do this. this same behavior occurs when trying to modify an already existing Note. I receive the same message. However, the modifications were enacted.
As with Issue 1, this same behavior is seen with FireFox as well.
Issue 3:
After saving my Data Grid as an "Alternative Default Report", I see the Note annotation I created associated with the report row. However, when I hover my mouse on the Note icon, all that displays is the first 4 words or so, about 15 characters, followed by a 3-dot ellipsis. The remaining 10+ characaters are hidden. What good is that?
Is there aimit to the number of characaters that can be placed in a Note Annotation? I have not seen this characater limit mentioned anywhere in the online APEX docs. I realize that I probably would not want a PhD disseration placed in a Note, but just 30 or so characaters? That seems awfully skimmpy.
As before, I'm seeing this same strange behavior in FireFox 3.6.1 as with IE 8.x
Issue 4:
When editing text in a Section, I attempt to re-size the text with a larger font size (say, from 10 to 14). I click the "Apply" button, but the resulting text stays the same size. I am unable to re-size the font in a section.
Even more puzzling is that the OBE "Building a Websheet In APEX 4.0" example application (http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/db/apex/r40/websheets/websheets_ll.htm) which takes me step-by-step in creating a websheet app shows that one can do all of the things mentioned in the above three issues. So, then, how is this tutorial able to do all these things but I am not?
Are these issues fixed in the 4.0.2 patch? I checked the online list of bug fixes for this patch and, although several do relate to websheets, none address the above three issues.
As mentioned, I am trying to prepare for this websheet demo and would really appreciate some quick advice or suggestions.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, Christina.
Thanks very much for the info about why we are seeing multiple APEX$ tables sprinkled amongst multiple schemas. I've passed this info to our APEX administrator.
Also, thanks for confirming what I suspected was a bug in the rich text editor. Hopefully this will be addressed soon.
I do understand your comment about not being able to stylize the Title text. Still, I am wondering why I do NOT see the HTML code in my own environment here at work. Yet on apex.oracle.com I see the code. This is why I made the comment in my last post. Seeing this code where there shouldn't be any code surprised me. So, why is this code not showing up for me here?
With respect to my file upload issue, as mentioned in my original post, I am NOT able to upload a quite simple .xls file as a file annotation to be associated with a row in a data grid I had created. However, I AM able to upload this exact same .xls file to a section on a page without problem.
In my websheet app on apex.oracle.com, navigate to Data -> Data Grids, click on the data grid "MAD Data Upload", select the report "2. Symbols Report with Annotations", click the pencil icon next to (I believe) the 2nd row which currentl displays a link, a note, and several tags. Then attempt to upload a simple .xls Excel file. The one I tried has 2 rows, a header row with 5 column headers, and a 2nd row with integer values for those 5 columns. That's it. After browsing to my file and clicking the "Apply" button, I get a stripped progress bar that sits there FOREVER. After about 10 minutes I gave up waiting. I figured that, even over the web, a simple two row Excel file should have been uploaded after ten minutes. My connection is pretty fast. I get no errors. Also there is no file.
One more thing ... Remember my Issue 2 in which I was attempting to modify a previously created Note annotation and received a weird error (see my original post above)? Well, I attempted to do this on apex.oracle.com.
In the same Data Grid row that you navigated to above, scroll to the very bottom and you will see my single Note Annotation. I attempted to modify this. I clicked the "Edit" link, typed in my changes, and clicked "Apply". This time, instead of receiving that weird error message, I received a more intelligent (though still weird) error message:
Not Found
Sorry!The page requested was not found.
And, just as with the truly weird message I would consistently receive in my own environment here at work, the text changes I had made to the Note were, in fact, preserved because when I re-look at my Note Annotation in the Data Grid, the Note does show the changes I had made.
Needless to emphasize, these errors would likely freak out end users who are adding Note Annotations to a Data Grid they had created. After all, these are the intended audience of a websheet app not a developer like me who is used to seeing such weird messages.
Would you know what all this about?
Thanks again for all your patience and sticking with me on this.
Elie

Need help with upgrade from Adobe Creative Suite to PS CS4

My old laptop with Photoshop on it crashed and I ended up purchasing a new laptop.
I'm trying to reload my PS CS4. I am using an upgrade from an educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium to the CS4 and when I loaded it on my old laptop I had to get installation help through customer service, but now customer service will not help me since it is CS4.
When installing the upgrade, it tell me to select the product I already own. I own the educational full creative suite, but am only upgrading the Photoshop. I chose Photoshop CS and tried entering the serial number for the suite. It tells me that the serial number doesn't match the product chosen. Of course the only products I'm allowed to choose from is Photoshop CS, CS2, or CS3 and not Creative Suite Premium.
The other serial numbers on this CS is Golive CO and Pagemaker Plug-in.
I was told there are Adobe customer service reps here on the forum, please tell me what it was I need to do to get my Photoshop installed.
Thanks

i wasn't aware that you could get a ps4 at an upgrade price using an older creative suite produect. i searched online and found this thread (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/476009) which makes it appear that was not a valid upgrade path.
but, if you're confident that was a valid upgrade path, i'm pretty sure something will need to be done on adobe's end and no amount of manipulation, on your end only, will work.
your best bet would be to get help in this forum from an adobe staff member like jeff wright who is very knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help adobe customers. to that end, if i were you, i would start a new thread mentioning his name in your title and in your initial post explaining:
you have the educational Adobe Creative Suite Premium and purchased a photoshop cs4 upgrade years ago that required adobe support help to install years ago.
that worked well until a recent computer problem forced you buy a new laptop and you are now trying to reinstall that ps cs4 and again need support help but have been refused help because cs4 is not current.

Need help with upgrade from WXP MCE to Vista Ultimate on Qosmio G30 - 175

Hi all, I tried searching for the following issue to no avail so I would be most grateful if someone could help and point me in the right direction:
Tried to upgrade the XP to Ultimate and it got to unpacking stage and BSOD "Session3_initialization_failed (xxx STOP: 0x0000006F (0xC000009D, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) appeared repeatedly. I tried again and the same happened.
I have already updated the BIOS and stripped the conflicts out of the Toshiba suite of programmes and the update advisor gave the OK on several ocassions before attempting this exercise.
Help.........Dave

Forgot to mention too that I am currently running with 2 x 2GB Ram and no additional hardware or software has been added prior to attempting the upgrade. The medium I am using to upgrade is a recently purchased full retail version of 32 bit Vista Ultimate (which also includes a 64 bit version too in the box).
I have been in touch with Microsoft Support in recent days and they told me that my hard drive appears to be defective being the reason for the failed upgrade. Infact last week together with Microsoft on the phone we did attempt a clean install but that just lead to me having to abort the clean install and rescue my laptop back to original XP MCE.....flipping heck!!!!!

Help with Upgrading Workflow OWF_MGR Schema to 11G

Hi
We are planning to upgrade a OWB 10.1.0.3 repository (via 10.1.0.4) and also a 10GR2 repository into the same 11G repository on a new database instance.
Both sources have their own OWF_MGR schemas.
Can anyone please confirm if the OWF_MGR schema contains anything other than the deployed process flows and workflow logs?
I am trying to work out if I need to migrate both OWF_MGR schemas into the new 11G OWF_MGR schema, or if I can just redeploy all the process flows after the design and control centre data has been migrated?
The 11G installation guide has a section on migrating the Oracle Workflow schema but it is not very clear on what has to be done.
If anyone else has migrated to 11G on another database, what steps did you take to migrate the workflows schema?
Thanks
GB

Hi Dan.
You can't upgrade to GW 2012 on SLES 9, and you can't install GW 7 on SLES 11 - quandry huh! Ultimately, here's what you need to do:
1. Install SLES 11 on the new server.
2. Install eDirectory and add it to the tree.
3. Move the system to the new server
4. Upgrade to 2012 you'll never put GW7 on it of course - just do a move/upgrade at the same time.
5. Promote the edirectory partiton on the new server to Master.
6. Remove eDirectory from the old server.
7. Shut SLES 9 Down
Hope that helps!
Oh - by the way - you asked me about my "Moving GroupWise" book in another message. It is used to move GW, but keep the same version. The only book I have that discusses a move/upgrade in one fell swoop is actually the GroupWise 2012 Upgrade Guide for "NetWare". And while it is assuming you are moving from NetWare, your situation would be very similar. It doesn't specifically cover the eDirectory bit though.

Help with upgrading my Power Mac G4

Hello,
I've found many topics in this forum helpful, but they are so spread out that I figured it would be easier to ask for help for my own computer.
I am interested in upgrading a few things on my G4. Here are my specs:
Machine Name: Power Mac G4
Machine Model: PowerMac3,5
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 867 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
L3 Cache (per CPU): 2 MB
Memory: 1.5 GB
Bus Speed: 133 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.2.5f1
1) Upgrading my processor:
I do a lot of graphics work (Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator, and Maya) on my computer and it's been really slow lately, even with my RAM maxed out to 1.5 MB. I was thinking of buying the SonnetDUAL G4/1.8GHz 512K L2 Cache Per Processor because I would like as much processing power as possible. What processor(s) would be the best fit for me?
2) Upgrading my graphics card:
I don't know anything about increasing my graphics card capabilities, or if I even need to. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Here are my current graphics stats:
NVIDIA GeForce2 MX:
Chipset Model: GeForce2 MX
Type: Display
Bus: AGP
Slot: SLOT-1
VRAM (Total): 32 MB
Vendor: nVIDIA (0x10de)
Device ID: 0x0110
Revision ID: 0x00b2
ROM Revision: 1055
3) Upgrading to a USB 2.0 PCI card:
Is this necessary? I was interested in purchasing a Firewire/USB hub and that's when I learned of the USB 2.0 thing. I don't know if I need it or not.
4) I just bought a 400GB external FW HD, but is it also recommended to buy a second internal hard drive? I'm leery of buying one because I'm not very computer HW savvy (surprise surprise!) but I'm wondering if it would be good for my computer considering its age and how much I use graphics software on my computer.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Power Mac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Hi there,
You have a very upgradable computer, one of the best. You didn't tell us your budget. So, I'll just assume you want to be practical.
1. I'd suggest either a Fastmac or OWC CPU. Easy to install, no firmware patches to add, simple and very fast.
2. Stay put for now, see how you like the CPU first.
3. If you need it look here. The sleep issue is one that cannot be remedied, so we live with it. I put my monitor to sleep and set the computer to never.
4. The FW 400 is perfect. If you are worried about the old internal HDD, install a second new one (128GB or less) internally and use it as your startup, the old one for storage of non essentials. No matter what you do, ALWAYS backup important data at regular intervals.
Finally, your Mac has 1.5GB of RAM already installed, you're set!
Regards,
Dave

Help with Upgrading my Ipod Touch.

I bought my Ipod Touch back in spring of 2010. I was able to keep the iOS upgraded to version 4.2. But when I go to download new apps and such it says I need version 4.3 or newer. Only Itunes stopped offering me updates for the iOS a long time ago and I can't seem to get it past 4.2. I was wondering if this is something that can be fixed or if it's just something Apple does to keep people buying newer products? Thanks for any help.

There is nothing that can be done. This is normal.
ALL software driven devices become unable to run the latest software at some point.
Your device is three generations old. It is not unusual in the least that it is unable to run the latest software.
Ask the app makers to make their apps compatible with the older software.

Need help with upgrading my Pavilion's graphics... affordably

Hi all,
New member here :-).
Ok...I am having trouble with a graphics card I just got. It's the EVGA GeForce GT 730 2GB GDDR5 64bit DVI/HDMI/VGA Low Profile Graphics Card 02G-P3-3733-KR. It's a very good entry level card according to every one I've talked to. It was reasonably priced so I bought one. When I installed it all I get is an amber power light and beeping sound. So I contact EVGA to see if it's incompatible with my computer model. This is what they said: "We do apologize for any issues with your GT 730. Your hardware should be sufficient to run the graphics card; however, you will need to remove any ATI/AMD software or drivers prior to installing our NVIDIA based graphics card, as this can cause driver conflicts. Although this graphics card does not require a UEFI motherboard BIOS, you may want to check with HP to see if this system can run 700 series NVIDIA graphics cards." Sooo... based on that last part I underlined, can this computer run that model of card?
Oh... another note: I guess the card could be defective too. I always seem to get the dud of the bunch if there is one. LOL. If that's the case I'll mail it back to Amazon.
My official warranty support has run out so you're the only guys and gals that can help me with this. Any info or advice will be greatly appreciated. Or if you can recommend any other graphics card upgrades that would work, that would be awesome too. Thanks so much in advance!!!
Just in case you didn't see it up top, the make and model is Pavilion P6-2120 H2M53AA#ABA.

Hi,
Please post the HP product number for your PC. How to Find the HP Model Number and the HP Product Number or let HP automatically find your PC model number and HP network attached printers. This will allow others to review your issue, make suggestions and review your responses. This is usually the best way to get assistance.
The quote about removing AMD drivers from EVGA seems to be bogus. I have multiple EGVA graphics cards and none of the printed directions ever mention removing AMD drivers. I have run and removed AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards without having to remove the previous drivers.
If your PC doesn't have a version 8 BIOS then the NVIDIA 7xx graphics cards may not work.

Re-try: Partitioned '08 iMac, Win7, Radeon X1600, help with upgrading driver?

I've been trying to use information found on other threads to update my driver but have had no success; my software and cpu are somewhat older than what I've been reading about. So.... I'm going to try this again before taking the thing to the local fixit shop (I don't want to do that...) And hopefully if there's someone in the same jam out there a search will bring them to this thread.
Is there anyone out there that can give me a simple 'do this, do this, do this, and do this' for my particular setup? I've used DriverSweeper prior to attempting installs, and Mobility Modder to get around AMD's Catalyst installer problems re:bootcamp.
I just wanna play my stupid GAMES, wah!

I love my Mac. But I love my Windows-only games.

The first part of your mcelog (the bit about " failed to prefill DIMM database from DMI data") strongly suggest one of the new RAM chips is defective. Start by simply putting the old one back in place and seeing if that helps. If it does, exchange the new faulty one with the seller for one that works. However, since you say yourself you aren't very tech savvy, it may be the case that you've simply purchased a RAM chip that is not compatible with your motherboard (although if both of the new chips are identical and the first one works, that may not be so).
When deciding to upgrade all the most vital hardware components of a machine, it's best to do it one piece at a time, and reconfigure the operating system to account for the new hardware. Uninstall old drivers, install new ones, change any personal settings related to the old hardware, reboot, make sure everything's fine and then repeat the process for every other new piece of hardware. Replacing everything at once without ensuring it will all work together increases the chances problems like this immensely---the problem itself may be very simple, but you've undertaken so many changes in such a short time that finding out what the problem is in the first place can be very complicated.
