Upgrade XE10 to XE11?

Question

Installation is openSUSE 11.2 32bit (XE10 WE)
and 64bit (XE11 Universal)
I did it as described:
- install XE 10 in 32bit linux
- install XE 11 on 64bit linux
- copied gen_inst.sql from 64bit linux(XE11) to 32bit linux(XE10)
- run gen_inst.sql on 32bit linux(XE10)
- created a DUMP_DIR
- grant read/write access to usr oracle:dba
- export as described
- copy the dump-files and log-files to a stick
- 64bit linux(XE11)
- created a DUMP_DIR
- grant read/write access to usr oracle:dba
- copy the dump-files and log-files to DUMP_DIR
- import as described
- generated install.sql:
set define off
alter session set current_schema = APEX_040000;
@ws.sql
commit;
- generated gen_apps.sql:
set verify off
set feedback off
set serveroutput on size 1000000
set linesize 1000
- generated ws.sql is empty
The import breaks:
Connected to: Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Beta
ORA-39002: invalid operation
ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file.
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 536
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Is it correct that impdp uses the log-file "expdpDB10G1.log"?
I see the different log-file-names (expdpDB10G.log, expdpDB10G2.log, expdpDB10G1.log, expdpDB10G1b.log):
export is:
expdp system/<passwd> full=Y EXCLUDE=SCHEMA:\"LIKE \'APEX_%\'\",SCHEMA:\"LIKE \'FLOWS_%\'\"
directory=DUMP_DIR dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G.log
expdp system/<passwd> TABLES=FLOWS_FILES.WWV_FLOW_FILE_OBJECTS$
directory=DUMP_DIR dumpfile=DB10G2.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G2.log
import is:
impdp system/<passwd> full=Y directory=DUMP_DIR
dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G1.log
impdp system/<passwd> directory=DUMP_DIR
TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=APPEND TABLES=FLOWS_FILES.WWV_FLOW_FILE_OBJECTS$ dumpfile=DB10G2.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G1b.log
Did someone tried this?
Should impdp and expdp use the same log-files?
Where should they stored?
What's going wrong?
Best regards

Answer 1

Hello Achim,
I'm sorry I hadn't tested this before on XE - it was the workaround suggested by MOS to solve that problem. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any xsl on my 11.2 XEs either. It seems to be some missing part similar to a few others reported in the beta forum, e.g. {thread:id=2204216}, {thread:id=2217556}
I had expected these missing parts to be there in the final release, but apparently, there are still some gaps.
So the only option left for the moment would be, as suggested by Etore, to take it from some other 11.2 release.

P.S.:
So i can install 11gR2 with a test installation on WIN7 64b without having a license?The OTN license allows you to install any release for evaluation and development purposes.
