We installed ApplExp. 2.0, but the version information says 1.6

Question

Hi,
we downloaded and installed html_2.0.zip from Oracle (we have database 10gR2). Working with the HTMLDB software, the release information says it would be rel 1.6 (as does the Help release information) .
So which version is actually running? The newest files in the html_2.0.zip are dated Sept 2005. I thought there was already a newer version of Appl. Express.
Looking forward for some advice
Barbara

Answer 1

In Companion CD there is 1.6 version.
After you download HTMLDB 2.0 you have to install it manually. Instalation part have in the end (look in log file) switching from 1.6 to 2.0 version. This mena that in database both versions exist but only one is active, and this should be 2.0 version.
It looks that you have not done this part OK (eventhought this should be done automatically!!).
Now...look in manuals how to remove both versions
I think this is all of three commands that should do the work of un instalation part (loogged as sys or user with DBA privilege):
drop user flows_0106000 cascade;
drop user flows_0200100 cascade;
drop user flows_files cascade;and then install HTMLDB once more! Look in the end in log file-. now there SHOULD NOT BE that switcing part-because you are not upgrading but installing!!!
P.S.
Take care that Oracle including Appex should be installed in HOME1 and Oracle HTTP server (From companion disk) should be installed in HOME2!!!!
