Using Oracle10g Client Express Edition

Hi,
I have just downloaded the Oracle Client10g Application Express Edition
but it seems only the only available tools is the command-base "Run SQL Command Line" ?
iand how can i actually create the TNS file ? i have already installed the Oracle Database10g Express Edition so i can i point the Oracle Client 10g to the TNS of Oracle Database 10g ?
appreciate ur advise
tks & rdgs

10g Express installation automatically create the Listener (see in Windows Services).
from you client, you can manually add tns entries in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora to connect to that listener. see $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora for the port number. You can always start and stop the listener from the command line or Windows Services.

Using Oracle Database Express Edition in development environment

Hi All,
I have doubt regarding the usage Oracle Database Express Edition in Development environment. I am not sure weather I can ask a non technical question here or not. Pleas forgive me if I have done any thing wrong.
I am working in an IT company where we take up projects outsourced by our clients. As part of our current project we are making some modification to a web application used by an institution. Our client is using Oracle Data Base standard edition. Due to budgetary constraints of our Company we can not set up a Oracle standard edition data base in our development environment.
So would it be illegal if we use Oracle Database Express Edition in our development environment? We can guarantee that only our internal development team which comprise a maximum of 10 people will have access to this development database and this development data base will never be opened to our Client for their business purpose(Who have their own Oracle standard edition in their environment). As part of the project we delver only table DDL script and stored procedure to our client and they put it in their environment.The sole purpose of a internal Express database will be development only.
Could some one please tell me if it would be violation of license agreement if we install Oracle Database Express Edition in our development environment.

Hi Paul,
Actually I have already gone through the Oracle Technology Network Developer License Terms for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition . But was not quiet clear about the content. It says in the license terms that "We grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the programs for: (a) purposes of developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operations". Does the term "your application" includes an application we are developing for another company. Since the Express database is installed in the development environment only and is not opened to any one else not even for Our client it definitely falls under the term "internal data processing operations" right?

PaaS using Oracle Database Express Edition?

Hi,
I'm planning to create a small web application that has the possibility of growing. I've been looking at some free cloud computing options for starters. I found AWS Free Tier and OpenShift.
Unfortunately OpenShift does not support Oracle as an RDBMS.
AWS seems to support it but is a bit complicated to setup. Also, I'm a bit unclear regarding the pricing of it. It says free for one year but with limitations. And that if I go beyond these limits, I will be charge. I currently do not understand most of AWS conditions on this so I'm trying to stay away from it for now.
Does anyone know any other cloud services that supports Oracle Express as an RDBMS?
Thanks,
Allen

Critical Patch Updates Apr 2007 for Oracle10g Database Express edition

Hi,
When will Oracle10g Express edition which includes Apr 2007 critical patch updates will be available. We use Oracle10 Database Express ed for development purposes and as per Apr 2007 critical patch update Oracle on XP has a security vulnerabilities that needs to be fixed immediately.
Thanks You,

There are no CPUs for XE edition and the downloadable version is not patched either.
If security is an issue, you'll need to pay up for Standard Edition.
If it was the Windows-only issue from that CPU that is your concern, the other option is to go to XE on Linux.

Not able to create partitions using Oracle 10g express edition

Hello Everyone,
I downloaded Oracle 10g express edition as the documentation for the same says that it supports partitioning of the table.
But when I try to run a command like
CREATE TABLE sales_range
(salesman_id NUMBER(5),
salesman_name VARCHAR2(30),
sales_amount NUMBER(10),
sales_date DATE)
PARTITION BY RANGE(sales_date)
PARTITION sales_jan2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('02/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
PARTITION sales_feb2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('03/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
PARTITION sales_mar2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('04/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY')),
PARTITION sales_apr2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('05/01/2000','DD/MM/YYYY'))
I get the following error
"ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Partitioning"
Please let me know what is causing the issue/error and how to resolve it.
Thanks.

Where did you read that the express edition supports partitioning? I would strongly suspect that there was an error in the documentation-- partitioning is an extra cost option on top of an enterprise edition database. Perhaps you are confusing the personal edition (which does support partitioning) with the express edition?

How to create a new DataBase using Oracle 10g Express Edition???

Hello, I am new to Oracle, I am used to Microsoft SQL Server (Enterprise Manager).
Here in Oracle I do not get how do I create a DataBase, and then create tables on it.
could anyone please explain to me how to do it?

A SQL Server database is roughly equivalent to an Oracle schema.
You should rarely need to create a new database. If you do need to create a database, get a 'for fee' edition of Oracle and use the dbca tool (Database Configuration Assistant) to do that. In fact, you are only allowed to have one XE database on the machine.
However, you can create as many schemas in an existing Oracle database as you need. (One schema, owned by userid SYS, is roughly equal to your 'master catalog'.)
You can create other schemas simply by
1) creating a userid that will own the schema (one designated for maintenance of the schema);
2) grant that userid appropriate privileges, such as 'CREATE TABLE', 'CREATE VIEW' as shown in the SQL Reference manual under the GRANT section;
3) provide that userid with a quota in one or more tablespaces (see the CREATE USER command in the SQL Reference manual);
4) create the objects, such as tabels, views, sequences, stored procs and functions, etc. (as in the SQL Reference manual);
5) create the users who will access the objects, and grant them the CREATE SESSION capability (as in the SQL Reference manual);
6) grant access (select, update, execute, etc.) on the schema objects to these users (as in the SQL Reference manual);
7) if desired, create synonyms on the schema objects so the users do not need to use fully qualified syntax such as "SELECT col FROM schema.table;" (as in the SQL Reference manual).
In case you are interested in looking at the SQL Reference manual, it can be found at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1 ;-)

Oracle Database Express Edition used in a standalone database

I have been developing databases for years in Access. I have had alot of people want me to make databases for them. I do not want to make the databases in access and then have to worry about sending a database to a different state and then find out that the user has a different version of access installed and it is not working correctly.
Can I use Oracle database express edition to create a database with a front end that I can send to others and they can install it on their computer and run it? Or do they need to install the full version of Oracle Express? In other words is there like a Runtime version?

user13756579 wrote:
I saw that had to install twice last night, messed up my password. The one thing I am worried about is the database running all the time on the users computer, even tho they might not use the database for months at a time. These databases are small databases to keep the data of group members. ie. name, address, phone, personal information and maybe a scanned document or two.
I have looked at other database programs, but do not want to put out alot of money if I might only develop 3-5 small databases a year.You may develope your application in such manner, that it will start Oracle XE service and stop it on exit. Set the service to start manually. That's it.

How can we reduce compares Database size in express edition

Hi,
for client we use SQL server express edition. express edition has limitation of 10GB of database size.
please help me how can we reduce/compares DB size.
Regards,
Manish

Data or page compression feature is not available in express edition so you cannot use this feature to help you.
You might be lucky to reclaim space from shrink operation but eventually data file will grow again. So your best bet is using licensed version.

Oracle express edition and JDBC licensing question

Hi all,
I am writing a web application that requires a database to work. I also will be selling this application. which leads me to these questions:
1) legally can i use the oracle express edition?
2) legally can i use the oracle JDBC driver?
Thanks,

Based on the discussions in the XE forum (confirmed by Oracle representatives in official capacity) as well as the license agreement (which you should take to your lawyer tp etermine how to set up the paperwork for your application):
You can include the Oracle Express Edition in your application. You can charge for your application and give no money back to Oracle for the use of Oracle Express Edition. You can distribute the client-side JDBC that is included in XE as well.
But - you can not hold Oracle responsible for the operation of the database, nor ask them for support or patches.
As Eric says - join us over in the XE forum for more discussion of this.

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

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.)

Oracle 10 Express Edition, SID and DBNAME HELP!!!

Hi i'm from Russia and my english is very bad!
Please, help!
I'm use Oracle 10 Express Edition and i have a problem:
My soft use speciefied database name, how i can (and may be then)
rename SID and DBNAME?
I .. change instance with "oradim" ,and change SID, DBNAME with "nid"
I change not listener configuration.
Please, help me. ...Thank's

The Express Edition SID is 'XE'.
If you change that, it is quite possible your database instance will stop working - or worse, work mostly, but not correctly all the time. XE is a special configuration and stuff like the SID are hardcoded in funny areas.
The database registers itself with the listener. You should not need to change the listener configuration.

Oracle 10g Express Edition for OCP 10g Upgrade Certification

Hi
Can I use Oracle 10g Express edition to prepare for Oracle 10g Release 2 new features exam.
Thanks,
James

For exam/certification disscussions, I suggest the [Certification forum|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=459].
By preparation I assume you refer to the topics of the [1Z0-040 exam|http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1001&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_040#3].
For "strictly self-educational purposes", take a look at the OTN downloads license and consider using EE (or PE perhaps) install, supposed you need full features for the managebility stuff, tuning advisors, partitioning, RMAN functionality, etc.

Oracle 10g express Edition Database

We are using oracle 10g express edition with a temporary storage space for a class using SQL. When creating and using the database, the data is being deleted after 1 or 2 days and students are having to start over, creating tables and inserting data. Any suggestions?

suggestions?Backups?
Or, as long as the DDLs and DMLs don't take long, rerunning table create and insert SQLs would probably be much faster than setting up the database(s) in archivelog mode and copying datafile/archivelog files or rman backup files someplace that won't get reimaged every other day.
