To drop a 10g Express DB

Hi,
I think we can manually remove everything of that including its entries in the registry. Will there be any potential issues when we then further reset that up in the same PC (that uses Win XP)?
Bst Rgds,
HuaMin

hi,
sorry for late reply,
have you tried to remove it from control pannel???? it will definitely wotk
look you won't find any option to delete windows services. you have to delete registry entries only for oracle express DB if you find any. but in my case i never face this problem. you can try deleting registry entries for express DB. but be careful while deleting them.
do not delete other oracle software registries if installed. after that restart your system if possible.and dont forget to delete directory from c:\program files
hope this helps.
waiting for your reply
thanks and regards

Problem upgrading Apex 2.1 to 3.2.1 in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

G'Day Apex gurus,
I installed Oracle Database 10g Express edition in my Windows XP PC which comes with Apex 2.1 with no problems. Then I wanted to upgrade Apex 2.1 to 3.2.1 (Currently Apex download in OTN) following the document below:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/3.1_and_xe.html
I went to the steps:
@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/
Then to change the password for the admin account run apxchpwd.sql and when prompted enter a password for the ADMIN account.
@apxchpwd
with not problems
Then I connected to SQL*Plus as SYS by:
sqlplus /nolog
CONNECT SYS as SYSDBA
Enter password: xxxxxxxxxxx
but when I tried to run:
@APEX_HOME/apex/apxldimg.sql APEX_HOME
where APEX_HOME is Apex3.2.1 in my case
SQL> @Apex3.2.1/apex/apxldimg.sql Apex3.2.1 (I get the messages below)

nothing happens
or even If I try:

nothing happens here too.
I appreciate any help
Kind regards

My database version is 10.2.0.1.0 Oracle express.
Operating system is Windows Vista.
I started installing using the following commands.
@ C:\temp\apex\apexins.sql
it prompts me for the values of sysaux sysaux temp and c:\temp\apex\images\
If I supply the value for images the sqlplus window closes after scrolling a lot of info.
Enroute it also prompts me for a value for 9:
I don't know what the input shall be.
Then it again stops at enter value for version:
I used 3.2.1.0
The window scrols a while and closes.
later I changed the password and ran the command.
@c:\temp\apex\apxldimg.sql c:\temp
but no success with installation.
the output is as following.

Problem upgrading 10g Express to Apex 3.1.2

I have Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 installed on windows XP. I want to develop an application using oracle express (apex), so I thought it would be a good idea to upgrade apex (from the default apex 2.0 that came with 10g xe) to the latest, release 3.1,2 before starting. I have tried up to upgrade twice & it has failed. Without going into a ton of details, based on log errors that I saw each time, it looks like installation script, apexins.sql, expects the 1st param to be the default tablespace instead of the password. Any ideas about this?
My other questions are:
1) Prior to upgrading to rel 3.1.2, do I need to create the apex user/passwd FIRST? The doc did not say to create the account first.(so I didn't). It says apexins parameters are the followiing, but the log errors I got seem to disagree:
@apexins <password> <tablespace_htmldb> <tablespace_files> <tablespace_temp>
<images> <connect>
2) Am I following the correct installation instructions for apex rel 3? From what I read, I believe I can go directly from apex rel 2.0 to 3.1.2. I found 2 different install docs for release 3 & they were different. Both docs said to run the change passwd script(apxchpwd) after installation, but one installation doc had 2 additional scripts (which I didn't run). Can someone please point me to the right install instructions?
3) After searching I found an old apex 2.2 installaction tutorial that says you need to install HTTP prior to APEX. Apparently I misinterpreted the 3.1 install doc that said HTTP was already included in oracle 9.2 or higher. I assumed that I didn't need to install HTTP since oracle xe is rel 10. Now I think I need to install HTTP first from the companion CD BEFORE upgrading to APEX 3.1.2. Is this correct?
3) It says that 85M is required in SYSTEM tablespace for apex 3. The system tablespace size is 76800 (default).
Should I increase it before attempting to upgrade again? (I expected the default to be big enough since apex comes with the db)
4)Any suggestions/tips for starting over are more than welcome! Again I saw > 1 doc on how to cleanup a bad installation. Both said to drop the flows_0300 user, but one said to exec wwv_flow_upgrade.switch_schemas, which I did before I did attempted the 2nd install. Am I supposed to run the switch_schemas or not to cleanup a bad install? Also, in the troubleshooting doc I did not see an option for calling switch_schemas for my apex release (2.1) so I just followed the examples and substituted 'FLOWS_020100'. for 'FLOWS_020200' parameter. Was that a good or bad idea?
5) Is there any other software (i.e application, server?) that needs be to installed before or after apex 3.1.2? Anything else I missed? The documentation is not clear & has omissions.
Thanks.

Hi,
I'm assuming that you're doing this on a Windows based machine and Apex 3.1.2 has already been downloaded from the Application Express webpage and will use port http 8080.
NOTE: Make sure your Oracle Database XE does not automatically startup when Windows boots up. If that is the case, then kindly disconnect Oracle Database XE before proceeding with any of these steps.
Step 1: Unzip Apex to a suitable location (preferable "c:\oraclexe\apex").
Step 2: Start a SQL Plus session from c:\oraclexe\apex and login as a "sysdba".
sqlplus / as sysdba
Step 3: Install Apex.
+@apexins SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/+
Step 4: Reconnect Oracle Database XE.
Step 5: Assign/Set images PATH for APEX in APEX_HOME folder where we have unzipped APEX i.e. c:\oraclexe.
[email protected] APEX_HOME+
Step 6: Assign/Set administrator credentials for/to APEX.
[email protected] your_password+
Step 7: Restart Oracle Database XE.
Step 8: Apex configuration completed. Availability will be as follows:
Apex availability: http://localhost:8080/apex
Apex Administrator: http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin
Follow these steps and let me know if this works for you or not.
Regards,
Naveed.

Create tablespace in Oracle 10g Express

Hi,
I've been playing around over the last few days with Oracle 10g Express and I need to create my own tablespace and therefore create user associated with my custom table space.
I tried with the command create tablespace, but I am not successful with configuring the parameters such as the datafile location and such. I did go through the Oracle Concepts Guide which was very helpful, but I must be missing something.
Also assuming that my db scheme will be part of my application and therefore released to my client as script so they can re-create my database how would the table space integration work on their end.
I would I have to place my first line of the script to create the table space and ask them for database file location?
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

user12359577 wrote:
The reason why I think I should create my own tablespace is because I am creating a database scheme and thus I think it is appropriate to place my db scheme in its own tablespace instead of simply using the Users tablespace default.
This is my command:

Error:

I am also not sure how to specify the datafile.
Thank you.How about checking with the fine SQL Reference manual for the syntax of the CREATE TABLESPACE command?
Learning where to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com. Drill down to your product and version.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.

AUDIT IN Oracle Database 10g Express

I configured Oracle Database 10g Express R2 for auditing,
ALTER SYSTEM SET audit_trail=db SCOPE=SPFILE;
AUDIT SELECT TABLE, UPDATE TABLE;
but...in dba_audit_trail ,
ACTION_NAME is always SESSION REC
but...i think its possible to record specific action like select,update..etc
thanx

Yes, regular auditing features are available at Oracle XE. Once you have configured your audit trail, just issue the audit command to start auditing focused areas.

How can i create a new database instance in oracle 10g express edition?

hello everybody
i'm a student
i am developing a database application
i'm using oracle 10g express edition
to run my application i need to create another database instance
but i didn't find any option for doing so in that product
if there is pls tell me where it is?
if not pls tell me how to manually create it?

Chaitanya Babu M wrote:
yaa i'm sure about that .
i want one more instance of database.Can you perhaps explain why? I have a fair share of production and development servers - and not a single one of them needs to run more than one database instance.
So I'm interested in what requirement you are trying to satisfy by using two database instances on a single platform.
Oh yeah - if you want to create a custom XE instance (different SID, different tablespace sizes, more/less PL/SQL stuff installed, hack standard), make a copy of your XE db creation script (in your XE's +$ORACLE_HOME/bin+ and called createdb.sh ) and modify that for your needs.
PS. even with a different SID, only a single XE instance can be run at a time - you can however have 2 different ones defined and then use one at a time (e.g. testing international settings, init param differences, etc.)

10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Enterprise R2 x64 with Active Directory

I have successfully installed the 10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Ent. r2 x64 with Microsoft Active Directory Domain Controller but i could not be able to run http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Although i have run the http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex on my another Windows 2008 R2 x64 ant WITHOUT Active Directory Domain Controller Role.
i think its related with AD Domain server role of my server, because i run that on same config and operation without Active Directory Domain Controller role.
Can anyone help about this issue?
thanks in advance

I have experienced the same problem - running 10g Express on a Win 2008 (32-bit). When not being a Domain controller, the install was fine. When installing after the server had been given the Domain Controller role (+the required DNS), it failed. NO FIREWALLS are involved on the server. Seems like Oracle Express has problems being installed in this kind of environment - independent of x32 or x64 bit OS.

Can 10g Express be installed on a machine that has MS SQL2000/2005?

I just discovered the 10g Express edition and I have been wanting to learn and work with Oracle for some time now so this is awesome.
I have a Windows 2003 Server here at my house that currently has both Microsoft SQL 2000 and Microsoft SQL 2005 developer and express editions installed on it. This is just a server of my own that I work with doing development work on my own in my own time in the off hours from work so it is nothing that is heavily loaded with mission critical applications or data or anything of that nature.
I was wondering if I could install Oracle 10g Express on the same machine or if there were known issues in attempting to install it on the same machine as the existing combination of SQL servers that I already have installed?
I have enough hardware processor and memory wise so that should not be a problem and again I am doing this as a way of learning and getting to know Oracle so I won't have any massive amounts of data or any other users other than myself working on it.
Thanks,
Ira

Tom,
I fully understand what you mean so no worries there. I am hopeful that my mileage will be a nice round number, the server I mentioned has nothing on it aside from the various database servers I mentioned and a couple of virtual servers that I also run for development purposes, one of them simulating a Windows 2003 Web Server and the other simulating a Windows XP client machine.
Thanks for the advise and I look forward to my new venture into Oracle.

10g Express installation on Win 2003 Server is failing

Hi,
I am facing the similar issue like this
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition installing on win2003 SP2
installation is failing after copying the files and publishing the product information and then automatically rolling back the complete setup. I checked in the OracleDatabaseXEServerInstall.log, but i could not trace out the exact cause.. some key notes from this log.

This is a VM with Windows Server 2003 SP 2. I checked the relevant Group policies enabled for this and i m clueless why this is failing.
Could someone provide me some clue on this
Thanks,

There is insufficient information here to know what you did and did not do.
Remove the software from your machine, if you know how to do so clean up the registry (otherwise do not touch it), get a fresh download, try again, and read the installation docs don't just try to fake your way through the prompts.
