Upgrade question from 3.1 to 3.2

I am trying to upgrade from Application Express 3.1.1.00.09 to 3.2. It says following
@apexins tablespace_apex tablespace_files tablespace_temp images
tablespace_apex is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express user.
tablespace_files is the name of the tablespace for the Oracle Application Express files user.
tablespace_temp is the name of the temporary tablespace
images is the virtual directory for Oracle Application Express images. To support future Oracle Application Express upgrades, define the virtual image directory as “/i/”.
My questions are
What's the name of the Oracle Application Express user account?
What's the name of the Oracle Application Express files user account?
and how can I define virtual image directory as “/i/”.

and how can I define virtual image directory as “/i/”.So, you need the name of the tablespace, not the name of the user account. As mentioned, the documentation provides examples.

  • Upgrading Question: From  Panther to Leopard... PhotoShop 7.0 to CS3?

    I just upgraded from Panther to Leopard and need to upgrade my PhotoShop 7.0 to CS3. What do I need to do to insure the upgrade is successful? And... what do I need to pull from my OS 9 before I delete it?

    *"What do I need to do to insure the upgrade is successful? "*
    You shouldn't have to do anything...just install CS3.
    Regardless, since Photoshop is not an Apple product, you should post your questions on Adobe's discussion forums, rather than an Apple forum that focuses on the isntallation of OS X:

  • Upgrade question from CS3 to CS5.5?

    I am having to reinstall software after a hard disk problem. After installing from my original CS3 disk, everything installed properly EXCEPT photoshop. It failed. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and photoshop fails every time. All the other programs - Illustrator, Indesign, Bridge, etc work great. I figured something was corrupted on the disk. Since I had the same CS3 also on a laptop, I tried copying the photoshop files to a flashdrive and copy them to my computer. Now I can get to the registration screen for photoshop, but when I put the serial number in for the CS3, I get a red X. I gave up at this point, and ordered the upgrade to CS5.5. Now, I am wondering, will the upgrade work if photoshop is not working? I just received CS5.5 Upgrade in the mail, but I am afraid to open it and void the possibility of a return, if the upgrade needs a working version of photoshop.
    Does anyone know if I all the components of CS3 have to be working in order to upgrade? Will the CS5.5 upgrade photoshop fail if the CS3 photoshop failed to install?

    If you registered, sign into your Adobe account and your serial number will be available there. If you didn’t and you still have it installed you can find it this way:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/help-ive-lost-my-serial-number.php
    If the answer to both is no, you’ve got a big problem on your hands and you’ve learned why you should always register your software.

  • Upgrade question from FCP 3 to FC Studio

    Hello all;
    I have FCP 3 and know I can upgrade to Final Cut Studio for $699. What I am planning on doing is wiping my system and installing fresh Tiger at the same time. WIll I be forced to try and re-install my old FCP 3 ? and THEN apply the studio upgrade? Or can I install Studio Upgrade from scratch on a virgin clean system?
    Thanks all

    All you will need is the serial number. The previous version does not have to be on the hard drive.

  • Questions in upgrade RAC from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2

    I am new in installing RAC and need help in upgrade RAC from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2.
    We have a 3 node RAC of 11.2.0.1 on refhat 5.2, and are planing to upgrade to 11.2.0.2. We are doing out-of-place upgrade. For our single instance DEV environment, it works pretty well that we install 11.2.0.2 and copy data from the old database, and then shutdown the old one.
    On the production RAC, I hope to install 11.2.0.2 on one node, and let it join the RAC with the other two nodes. Then do th same to the 2nd and 3rd node. I have the following questions.
    1) For Out-of Place upgrade, should I just follow normal installation to install grid infrastructure and then the RAC?
    2) In selecting Installation type should I choose Create and COnfigure database, or Upgrade an Existing Database?
    3) What should I do with the ASM? I want to use the existing ASM.
    4) Can I out-of place upgrade one node, and make it join the RAC, and then roll to another node, or I have to install 11.2.0.2 on all 3 nodes and configure a new RAC to replace the old RAC.
    5) What should I do with ocr and voting disks?
    Thanks

    We have a 3 node RAC of 11.2.0.1 on refhat 5.2, and are planing to upgrade to 11.2.0.2. We are doing out-of-place upgrade. For our single instance DEV environment, it works pretty well that we install 11.2.0.2 and copy data from the old database, and then shutdown the old one. out of place does it mean you are restoring database on another server then upgrading? why like that any reason..
    1) For Out-of Place upgrade, should I just follow normal installation to install grid infrastructure and then the RAC?Yes, You need to build RAC environment
    2) In selecting Installation type should I choose Create and COnfigure database, or Upgrade an Existing Database?Upgrade existing database.
    3) What should I do with the ASM? I want to use the existing ASM.you need to create an ASM instance on new server..
    4) Can I out-of place upgrade one node, and make it join the RAC, and then roll to another node, or I have to install 11.2.0.2 on all 3 nodes and configure a new RAC to replace the old RAC.

    5) What should I do with ocr and voting disks?at the time of cluster installtion you need to configure , later you need to register database before upgrade.

  • 11gR2 Infrastructure Upgrade Question(s) from 10gR2

    Hello.
    We are currently using both Linux (RHEL5) and Solaris (5.10) for all of our Oracle 10.2.0.5.0 RAC DBs. Weare NOT using ASM currently. So, we are going to upgrade our DBs to the latest version of 11gR2 - and this obviously will include our CRS. I know the ASM and CRS under 10g are now combined under the 11gR2 Grid Infracstructure. I have been revieiwing the Oracle Grid Infrastructre Installation Guides for both OSs. While these guides are centered on new installations, I do notice that each has a small appendix tied to upgrading activities (Appendix E in Solaris and Appendix F in Linux).
    I also have a few papers I pulled from blogs related to these activities (e. g., a blog from David Marco and another from Martin Bach) where they are updating their clusterware from 10gR2 to 11gR2. So here are a a few questions I'd like to answer - one may be obvious from what I have already read.
    1.) This may be the obvious or redundant question - almost the entire writeups in the earlier referenced appendices seem to center around an 11.x CRS to 11gR2. So are these appendices still the correct reference when going from 10gR2 to 11gR2? Just double checking myself/
    2.) Sadly, we are not going to be utilizing ASM anytime soon (tied to $$ issues realted to fiber connections). We might later, however, go to ASM. Is there anything I should do in relation to this upgrade tied to ASM that might make it easier to say move over to ASM in the next year - or should I just ignore any references to ASM during this initial upgrade?
    3.) Does anyone have any other additional document references/URLs that you might feel would be helpful in the overall 11gR2 upgrade process (both Infrastructure and/or DB)?
    Thank you in advance for any help.

  • Upgrade question - Should I upgrade from 10.3.7 to 10.3.9 or jump to Tiger?

    Hi. Thanks in advance for reading my thread.
    Here's my dilemma.
    Lately I've been unable to use certain programs and view some web pages which I believe is due to my OS being 10.3.7. For example, I can't upgrade to Quicktime 7 (which I need to perform some tasks - including fully use my video Ipod I think) and I've been having programs "Unexpectedly Quit" quite often. (I do repair permissions consistently and I use Mac Janitor weekly).
    However, the main programs I run, Avid Xpress Pro 4.6, Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD, Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Microsoft Office 2004 all are running pretty well.
    It appears that if I upgrade to 10.3.9 I will be able to upgrade to Quicktime 7.0 which would be helpful. But, upgrading scares me because I have 3 random firewire drives and I've read about problems with certain chip sets etc. In fact, in the recent past I lost a couple drives due (I think) to a chip set issue with a particular enclosure.
    If I upgrade to Tiger I'm afraid of having issues with the programs I am currently using (like Adobe, FCP, and Avid).
    I'm looking for any recommendations and opinions on what I should upgrade to. Keep in mind I'm a definitely not a Mac Genius.
    Thanks for your help.

    Upgrading would be a good idea. You can download the 10.3.9 Combo Upgrader directly from Apple's website (www.apple.com/support/downloads/.)
    Photoshop and Office will work OK. I believe so should FCP. As for Avid you should check with their website to determine if the version you are using is compatible. If not you should be able to upgrade.
    Upgrading to Tiger may be another matter. Although Adobe apps and Office will work OK, I'm not sure about FCP or Avid. Upgrades may be necessary for compatibility. Upgrading to Tiger will require purchasing the Tiger retail installer package.
    To avoid any Firewire problems disconnect all FW drives before updating. Also be sure to do the following:
    Boot from your OS X Installer. Be sure to use the installer for the version of OS X you have installed. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (or Utilities menu if using Tiger.) After DU loads select your OS X volume from the list on the left, click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (3.0.3 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.1.1 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • Upgrade paths from cs5 to cs5.5

    Hello,
    I just got off the phone with customer service. I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 in late December. I would like to upgrade InDesign from CS5 to the 5.5 version. I was told this isn't an option because I own the suite.
    This perplexes me since I have purchased many, many single items from Adobe in the past--from Pagemaker 3 pretty much on. Is it really true that once I went to CS2 I abandoned my rights to upgrade individual products?
    It seems a bit unreasonable, after spending $600 at the end of last year, that now, three months later, I need to spend another $400 just to update one program. Am I missing something?
    I am posting here because the representative I spoke with had a really, really hard time understanding English and I'm not sure he even got my question. It took him over a half hour just to find my account and verify that I had a registered version of Design Premium. He told me that part of the problem was that I have purchased so many Adobe (and Macromedia) products over the past 15 years that I now have four accounts and that it was not possible to consolidate all my software under one single account. This also sounds very odd. HELP!
    Thanks!
    Ruth

    I looked into crossgrading. The whole thing was a comedy of errors. My new custom built super-charged PC developed an un-diagnoasable software error, and then got stolen after being sent in for repaired. At the time, it seemed like my best option was to start the migration from Windows, buy a Mac laptop, get software to run on it, yet still keep my Windows options open in case the PC was found. I was using a backup PC to keep work on schedule.
    I used one of my Macromedia cross-platform suite products to upgrade to the Mac CS3 suite. So it wasn't as expensive as it could have been. In hindsight, yes, I should have just abandoned the PC and crossgraded. But I was very fearful after all the computer issues I had encountered that I would have problems with one or the other of the two computers and I felt I needed some redundancy just to ensure I didn't have more downtime.
    I'll look through the Adobe site for a license transfer form. When I called several months ago, the agent, made it sound like these were very difficult to come by. Or perhaps, the agent just didn't know. I've ran into this several times with Adobe. One agent tells you one thing, another says something entirely different. Customer service is lacking in my opinion.

  • Upgrade CFM from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) Sap to ECC 6.00

    Hello,
    We are in a project of upgrade Sap from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) to Sap ECC 6.00. Our question is particularly for CFM component migration/upgrade.
    As we checked we have activate the extension set:
    EA-FIN: Financials Extension
    EA-FS: Financial Services
    According with the Component Version Data the extension set EA-FINSERV has the release 2.00. However, in order to execute the CFM migration with transaction TPM_MIGRATION we are not sure if our CFM installation is on release 1.00 or 2.00.
    In the other OSS note 858966 mentions the following conditions to start points migration:
    1. The start release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
    R/3 Enterprise extension set 1.10 or earlier.
    2. The target release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
    R/3 Enterprise extension set 2.00 or higher.
    Do you know a transaction o report Sap which provides this information?
    Thank in advance.
    Sergio

    Within SAP, select System -> Status...  In the pop-up box, click the details button in the SAP System data section and you'll get another pop-up with system component information.  It's been a couple of years since I did the Treasury migration for our upgrade from 4.7 to 6.0, but I believe the component you're looking for is EA-FIN.  The Release column will have either 110 (for extension set 1.10) or 200 for (2.00).

  • HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

    I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

    Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
    The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
    For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
    Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
    To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
    To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
    Enjoy your cloud

    Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

  • 11gR2 Post-Upgrade Questions Regarding tnsnames, listener, pwd, and init

    Hello.
    Am planning on upgrading a significant # of RHEL5 10gR2 RAC and non-RAC DBs to 11gR2 (11.2.0.3.1, specifically). The servers are still not available to me, but I have been poring on the install and upgrade documents as well as referencing several blogs of users who have done them. I have almost literally read the guides verbatim. I will be using the DBUS - not doing a manual upgrade. Since I cannot test of the upgrade yet, I have a few questions related to POST_UPGRADE actions in terms of the listener, tnsnames, password, and init files.
    1.) The upgrade document indicates on p 3-24, "DBUA then proceeds to create new configuration files (parameter and listener files) in the new Oracle home." Will the init file (assuming spfile will be copied as we are using one everywhere now) have deprecated parameters REMOVED after it is copied over to the NEW/TARGET home?
    2.) While the install/upgrade guides do not call for it, several blogs indicate that the tnsnames and password files should be copied over from the old/source DB network/admin location ($TNSNAMES/admin) to the new/target DB /network/admin location. Do I need to do this or with the DBUA also copy them over? If all 4 files (tnsnames/listener/spfile/password) are copied over, I am not sure why the document doesn't indicate this.
    3.) Other than the spfile being copied over and modified, I don't see any difference between the old/source and new/destination copies of the listener, tnsnames, and password file. Do you agree?
    I am just trying to figure out what really need to be copied over and what doesn't in lieu of the DBUA doing it for me.
    Thank you all for your help. If I had HW to test this out, I would do it. In the meantime, I am writing the procedures to do the actual upgrade.
    Matt

    page 3-24 corresponds to following
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e23633/upgrade.htm#CHDDCBHG
    which states
    You must run the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant before running DBUA. See "Configuring the Listener When Upgrading from Oracle9i".
    If you are upgrading an existing Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control or if you are configuring a new Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control for the new Oracle Database 11g release, then the listener must be running before upgrading Oracle Enterprise Manager. If DBUA detects that an Oracle Enterprise Manager upgrade or configuration is requested, and DBUA does not see a listener running, then it prompts you and starts the default listener in either of these cases.
    running netca from new home results in creating a new listener.ora file, this could complain that listener is already used if the old listener is running with the same name or port (default 1521) taken.
    I think the "+DBUA reloads the listener.ora file in both the old and new Oracle Database environments.+" which point c in that list has to be taken in context with the two previous points a, b, where the usecase is shown how services , entries are removed from one listener.ora file and added to another. So to make sure those services are started from the "now" correct home those listener.ora are reloaded.
    If you look in the 11.1 upgrade guide this text is written as "DBUA removes the entry of the upgraded database from the old listener.ora file and reloads the listener of the old database." http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28300/upgrade.htm#i1011982
    If after the upgrade old oracle home is not used anymore (no database is running out of that) you can ignore the listener.ora on the old home.

  • Upgrade Process from SQL 2005 to SQL 2012

    Hi All,
    I have gone thru multiple threads and would like to understand some steps in detail for me to upgrade SQL 2005 to SQL 2012.
    Below is my understanding and questions around it, I would be setting up a new environment with OS 2007/2008 with SQL 2012:
    Environment Readiness - Ensure new environment is ready with Win 2007/2008 with SQL 2012 Server
    Run Upgrade Advisor on the new environment and point to SQL 2005 instance
    Find the breaking/discontinued changes to be done before or After Upgrade
    <Question>: Over here I would like to know what should be our approach to make the required changes
    <Question>: Obviously I should not be making changes directly on the Production SQL 2005 server, then in that case should I take a backup/restore on the new SQL Server 2012 and then make the required changes to the database objects
    like (Table schema(changing column names/datatypes etc.), Stored Procedure, Functions & Views)
    <Question>: When I do a backup/restore I would also get the data along with it, so is this a recommended approach or should we only run/use the table schema creation scripts, fix the issues identified by UA and then do an Table to Table import,
    any thoughts on this ?
    <Question>: If I have to do a table to table Import then I should ensure there's a downtime during the Import or would I have any other better approach          
    So, basically my questions are around the approach of fixing the issues identified by UA and moving the database to SQL Server 2012 environment, I have around 300 databased to me upgraded.
    Please do let me know what should be a good/proven approach ? Pl. do let me know if you would need any more details from me.

    Thanks all for the replies.
    I am trying summarize what I have understood here:
    Document SQL Server 2005 environment details, Is there any tool which could give us all relevant details
    I would take the backup from the SQL Server 2005 Production environment and then restore the same in a test environment which again has SQL Server 2005 and Run Upgrade Advisor on that
    Probbaly run SQL Profiler as well to find out the deprecated changes to be done
    I should fix all the breaking, discontinued changes on the Test system identified by UA
    I should fix all the deprecated changes on the Test system identified by SQL Profiler
    Steps 3 & 4 should give me the changed scripts for all database objects (i.e. Table Schema, Stored Procedures, Functions & Views)
    <Question> Perform test, I understand this acitivity test can be captured by having SQL profiler running in the background on the SQL Server 2005 production environment where we can identify some days in a week or a month where maximum activity is
    expected to ensure we cover most the scenarios, let me know is this approach looks fine or is there a better approach
    Now, with regards to acutal upgrade I need to identify a time window where in less activity is done during which I could have a downtime for the actual SQL Server 2005 production environment
    Post downtine, I should do a BackUp for all databases from SQL Server 2005 production environment
    Test on environment readiness of SQL Server 2012 can be compared against the documentation done as part of the first Step
    <Question> Ideally I should a restore first in the new environment which has SQL Server 2012
    <Question> Then run the Scripted changes where we fixed all the breaking, discontinued & deprecated changes
    <Question> Does above sequence of Step 9 & 10 make sense or is there a better approach of doing it
    <Question> Post Upgrade and running of changed scripts, I should run the Upgrade Advisor again and see if everything looks fine
    <Question> Perform test again which we ran on SQL Server 2005 Test environment
    <Question> These steps should complete the Upgrade process.
    Please do let me know if the above sequence look ok to all of you and does it really work in a practical scenario, do let me know your feedback or any change in sequence/process or any other tools that can be used here.
    Thanks Again ...
