Version upgrade.   Oracle express edition

I down loaded from OTN the version of Oracle express edition onto my computer. It installed version 10.2.0.1.0 or Oracle.
I would like to upgrade oracle, but I am not sure what patches to down load. Can I just upgrade using the Enterprise Edition upgrade of 10.2.0.3.0 or do I have to find the specific patch. I have looked and I haven't been able to find Oracle Express down load or patches.
Also the version of Application express that I have is 2.1.0.00.39
Is there a later version of that as well. Do you happen to know that patch download. I have been trying to find that in Metalink and cannot either.

Hi user568042,
This forum is for Oracle Application Express. Your are talking about the Oracle Express edition database, so your in the wrong place. :-)
It is not possible to upgrade or patch the Oracle Express edition database. The product is free but without the possiblity of patching.

  • Waiting for a new version of Oracle Express Edition?!

    I'm waiting for Oracle XE 11g database, any information about release date? Isn't time for that?

    Tnx for your answer, it was really fast, but I must note that this post you linked to is more than two years old...
    Oracle 11g R2 is on the market for a few months, as well as Oracle Open World in San Francisco is behind the present time...
    I hope it is comming soon...

  • Connect Toad freeware with Oracle express Edition, How?

    Hello,
    Although I know that people will raise the question this is Oracle and use SQL developer... Ok I do that and that is working fine. But on my work they work with TOAD so I like to work with TOAD as well and I want get some knowledge about Toad, TNSNAMES etc.
    I've put the issue on TOAD forum as well, but till now I don't have received an answer.
    I want to teach/learn myself Oracle by working with the Oracle express edition. I have downloaded the SQL Developer and I can work with it, which means I can create a connection.
    Errors when I try to work with TOAD are:
    If i try to make a connection:
    - "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"
    If I click on TNSNames editor:
    - Access violation in address xxxxxxx at module TOAD.exe"
    I have installed oracle at D:\ORACLE_HOME. In this directory is also a TNSNAMES.ORA file.
    I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
    I'm working on my local machine with:
    - windows 7 Home
    - Oracle 32 bit client:
    - Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - "CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production"
    - TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
    - TOAD 64-bit freeware.
    *Questions:*
    *- Are there certain environment variables necessary? Does TOAD expect Oracle at a certain directory?*
    *- Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?*
    *- 32-bit Oracle client will working with the 64-bit TOAD freeware?*

    If i try to make a connection:
    - "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"Listen to that message. A 64-bit program requires 64-bit libraries.
    I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
    I'm working on my local machine with:
    - windows 7 HomeHome editions are not supported, sorry.
    - Oracle 32 bit client:What is it - Client or Server?
    - Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production>
    - TOAD 64-bit freeware.Perhaps easiest way out is to remove 64-bit Toad and install the 32-bit one instead.
    >

    - Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?

    All these should be directed elsewhere, e.g. at some Toad forum, maybe at toadworld.com.

  • Oracle Express Edition And Windows Encrypted File System (EFS)

    Hello,
    I want to use oracle express edition with windows encrypted file system. I tried some possibilities like encrypting xe folder. But connection can not be established when efs is used. Is there a compatibility problem between oracle xe and windows efs? On Oracle's page, it is declared that oracle database is compatible with Windows EFS.
    Thank you for help.

    Pl identify which version of Win 7 - 32-bit or 64-bit ? Home version or something else ?
    The 11g XE install is only available for 32-bit version of Win 7 Professional or higher - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH. If you are installing on 64-bit version or Home version of Windows, then you are on your own. What is the reason for enabling EFS on this database ?

  • How can I start using Oracle Express Edition

    Good afternoon, how can I start using Oracle Express Edition? I have it installed it but I can not enter any user or key that allows me to manage the program from the Internet. I have understood that this version is free.
    Correct me I'm wrong and please do noted me. In my country this course very expensive and I'm looking to learn on my own.
    Edited by: user12301712 on 03-dic-2009 9:46

    Hi
    During installation wizard asked you about password for SYS and SYSTEM user, you had to set it. If you forgot you can loggin to ORACLE via SQL plus without password:
    c:\>SQLPLUS / sys as sysdba
    after connect you can set new password for any user, for example (SYSTEM user):
    ALTER USER SYSTEM identified by NEW_PASSWORD;
    After this you can login to APEX (Internet enviroment)
    Remember Oracle it's not only Internet frontend, it's huge tools with many functions. If you need study Oracle you need many time and zest but it is worth-while.
    Yes Oracle XE is free (read licence agreement).

  • How to install Oracle Spacial with Oracle Express Edition 10g?

    Hello,
    I'm new in Oracle Technology, I just wanted to try Oracle Spatial.
    I don't know how to get it so I've installed Oracle Express and followed this tutorial :
    http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2009/06/manual-installation-of-spatial-10g.html
    They say Jserver, Oracle interMedia and Oracle XML Database have to be installed, but only one of them seems to be set up (XML DB), I can't install the others.
    If someone can help me to install Oracle Spatial, it would be nice. Bye.

    If you want to use Oracle Express Edition, note that the 11.2 version is available on beta now:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/overview/index.html
    Its a while since I've used XE but from what I recall you get the Locator functionality, but not Spatial. That makes sense as XE is free, which Spatial needs to be licensed.
    However, you can do an awful lot with Locator. To see if it is setup, just check if you have the MDSYS schema. Then describe the SDO_GEOMETRY type:
    describe mdsys.sdo_geometry
    If they are both there, then you're in business.

  • Can Oracle Express Edition be used for Internet Web Projects?

    Hi,
    If we have a simple WWW application accessible from internet via WEB server and Web server uses Oracle Express Edition as a "data storage", can Oracle XE be used without violating license (XE limitations)?
    Thank you!

    Don't see why not, although a quote from the Oracle Technology Network Developer License Terms for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition page at the License Rights section, "developing, prototyping and running your applications for your own internal data processing operation..." so that might be leaning into a bit of a grey area. A bit.
    But with something available on the web you'll want to be sure to stay up to date with security patches- and unfortunately XE can not be patched. Just because something can be done, and even works for its intended purpose, doesn't necessarily mean that it is a "good thing to do".
    Nothing wrong with trying something out for learning and figuring out how things work- apex is a nifty development platform, although I've not kept up with the details of the last couple of versions. Too many other things on the "got to learn this, got to do that" list(s).

    Hi all.

  • Is DBAT Connector  compatible with Oracle Express Edition

    Hi All,
    This is the first time that I would be working with DBAT connector.
    I would need to  start POC on DBAT Connector 11.1.1.5.0 with oracle DB.
    As part of POC, I would like to know,  whether  I would  need to install Oracle EE (10g or 11g or 12g) or Oracle Express edition of the same version would suffice.
    This is just to reduce Oracle  EE license issues for POC.
    Would you kindly suggest.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Please refer the certification table of DBAT connector:
    https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E22999_01/doc.111/e20277.pdf
    Note: The Express edition of any of the above version will work.

  • Using OBIEE with Oracle Express Edition Database? SOLVED

    I have a client that wants a quick demo of OBIEE. They sent us some csv files as the data source. I migrated them to Excel files for easier use, but the Excel files seem to have limitations on how I can combine the columns, such as concatenating and formatting.
    I then loaded them into an Oracle Express Edition database, assuming more "database" functionality would be available to me. I was able to load them into the Administration Tool, but Answers gives me the following error when I try to view any results from the Express database:
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
