Welcome to the new Oracle User Group Community

This new platform brings new community features to enhance the way you connect with user group peers and with Oracle, as well as make it easier for you to find information through a more intuitive interface. We invite you to provide your feedback on the new site. Log in using your OTN Forum credentials and join the discussion here.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Kashif,
Glad you like the new Community. Communication among user group leaders works a little differently on this site than on the previous site. Rather than having communication focus around e-mail distribution lists, communication now is focused within the site itself. The intent is that this will provide users the one place to come for information, rather than having to sort through lots of e-mail threads. That doesn't mean that e-mail is completely out of the picture though. Users can opt-in to receive e-mail notifications when an individual piece of content is changed, or when content is posted to a space. Look for the "Receive email notifications" link under "Actions" to start receiving notices. To stop receiving notices, go back to the same content/space and click "Stop email notifications".
Your Relationship Manager will be talking with you and the other leaders in your region over the next few days and weeks regarding how you and your group of leaders want to communicate.
Best regards,
Oracle User Group Team

  • Announcement - UK Oracle User Group Meeting 09-Sep-2004

    The UK Oracle User Group Development Engineering Special Interest Group which covers the Forms and JDeveloper Tools will be holding one of it's regular meetings in Oracle's Reading Offices (UK) on the 9th September 2004. For details see http://www.ukoug.org/calendar/show_event.jsp?id=436.

    I agree.
    What's needed is at least 5 years of ongoing active Support (including emerging new Platform Versions).
    If Sun/Oracle expects their clients to migrate to a new product, they should provide detailed migration information and usable migration tools (covering existing Components and Plans, inheritance, Dependencies and installation history data) to protect the substantial investments existing clients have made in the N1SPS framework.
    Of particular interest for my client are the virtual host concept and modeling of dependencies over multiple hosts for application server (Oracle WebLogic) clusters.
    I'm not sure if Sun/Oracle did fully understand the potential of N1SPS - especially for managing (their own) Middleware products - when they decided to EOL N1SPS.

  • Oracle User Group in Germany

    Hello,
    I just came back from the DOAG (German Oracle User Group)
    conference. HTML db seems to be much more popular than I
    thought - and that's good. There were no free chairs in the
    room at all. People were sitting on the floor.
    Tomorrow is the second day. There are at least three or
    four topics related to HTML db. Happy to have a chance to
    attend the courses.
    More and more people are starting to realize and admit
    than HTML db is much, much more than just a replacement
    for Access and Excel. It is making competition to Oracle
    own products that have this heavy aura of "serious"
    programming interfaces (J2EE, Portal,
    ...). People are using it with SAP, BAAN or standalone.
    I saw the roadmap for HTML db. Looks quite promising. If
    only the half of the planned features appear in the next
    version it will become unbeatable (and I was told it is
    unbreakable?).
    They demonstrated the new "session state protection"
    feature using checksum. This was one of the bigger issues.
    Now, it doesn't seem to be an issue any more.

    Denes,
    Thanks for posting this update from DOAG. Unfortunately, I was unable to make it.

  • OPA at UK Oracle User Group in Birmingham Dec 1, 2009

    I will be making a presentation on OPA at the forthcoming UK Oracle User Group conference at the ICC at Birmingham. This is a major conference for the Technology and E-Business Suite parts of Oracle, running from Monday November 30 to Wednesday December 2. There are 12 different tracks plus Masterclasses and Roundtables, with 5 presentations per day, so a huge range of subjects is covered. Oracle employees make many presentations, but consultancies and end users also contribute.
    I have been allocated the final presentation in Track 9 on Tuesday, with a title of "Extending Oracle E-Business Suite to use Haley Office Rules". As far as I can see, it is the only mention of Rules in the whole conference. As I am the only barrier between tired delegates and the bar, the presentation will aim to be light hearted but instructional.
    I would be delighted to meet any OPA Forum members at the event and in the bar afterwards.
    More details of the event are at http://techandebs.ukoug.org/default.asp?p=3232

    Thanks for posting this event to the OPA forum David. It is great to see the partner community spreading the word on OPA, especially in a form like your presentation where you'll be highlighting real world experience of an OPA implementation.
    I'd love to see your presentation, but wont be able to attend. Will it be recorded or available virtually for those unable to travel to be there? Perhaps you could post your slides to this forum after the event?

  • I have the new Oracle 8i installer and here is why

    I have been trying to get Oracle 8i on Linux and I feel that I
    must share
    my thoughts on the new Oracle installer with everybody.
    I hate the new installer. I used to run the installer from
    home over my
    128Kbps connection while I was connected to the office machines,
    because it
    was simple text based. And Oracle 8i has changed all that!
    I have nothing against GUI based installers, only when they have
    a little too
    many animated images that eat up bandwidth. I had to drive all
    the way to
    the office because I did not have sufficient bandwidth to display
    the darn
    ringing bell animated image. This is strictly the mentality of
    Windows users
    who like to work on the console of servers.
    And check this out:
    line 118 in my install log file at :
    /usr/local/oracle/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions.log
    says :
    platGroup = WINDOWS
    And this is on Linux!!! Maybe the Oracle folks are forgetting
    that Linux
    users are a little too sensitive to these kind of mistakes. :)
    This also supports my theory that the new installer is a gift
    from Windows
    programmers. Who are not too familiar with the idea of being
    able to send
    their video display to any computer around the world and work
    from there.
    A feature every Linux user takes for granted
    There are numerous other bugs in the installer and other routines
    of Oracle
    8i for Linux. Some of them I will list here:
    2. The installation types screen list 3 options:
    Typical, Minimal and Custom.
    Somehow Minimal takes more disk space (642 MB) compared to
    Typical (585 MB).
    Well that is what the installation screen says. I have not tried
    to install
    using the minimal install.
    3. The installation cant figure out how much free space is
    available on the /
    partition. Is it that hard? Its gives warnings about how I may
    not have
    enough space.
    4. dbassist cant find the cdrom if you try to install the default
    database
    from CDROM. It says cannot find CDROM even if you have all your
    stuff under
    /mnt/cdrom
    5. The docs talk about software mount points and data mount
    points /u01 /u02
    /u03 and /u04 that I created, but I could not find anywhere to
    specify them
    like I was able to, with the last release.
    6. "Oracle Protocol Support" section during the install shows no
    options at
    all. What happened to good ole Net8?
    And many others. This product is a joke.

    My sentiments exactly. There are so many bugs in the
    installation of this release that I have just about given up.
    And I haven't even started testing the new features yet!
    I've tried the install on RedHat 6.0 straight out of the box (no
    patches or updates applied) and followed the OIG and release
    notes to the letter. Clearly, no one at Oracle did the same,
    because there are many problems during install. I finally got a
    simple database running, but there are some real gotcha's along
    the way.
    Here are just a few of the bugs I've encountered:
    1. Zero length library file $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libnjni8.so.
    Netasst doesn't work without it. Someone said they posted the
    source code to the comp.databases.oracle.server newsgroup, but I
    can't find it.
    2. Database Creation Assistant thinks dbmssql.sql is called
    dbmssml.sql.
    3. Building the Intelligent Agent with TCL 7.5 causes a cascade
    of undefined references when running gmake -f ins_oemagent.mk
    agent
    4. Database Creation Assistant doesn't understand OFA. It wants
    to put all of the database files /u01/app/oracle/oradata/<sid> !
    5. Database Creation Assistant will sometimes prevent editing
    the data file names to put them in OFA compliant directories.
    I am appreciative of the free developer licenses for so many
    Oracle products, but this is the worst Oracle install I've had
    in 12 years.

  • Queries about Oracle User Groups

    Hi,
    I am planning to move to US in few months. I would like to join in any Oracle user group and attend sessions from industry experts.
    I would like to get some advices on
    1) Should i join in IOUG (Independent Oracle Users Group) or
    2) Should i prefer to join in the user group where i will be working?
    I checked IOUG website and found there are many benefits and i can even view webcasts if i can attend sessions directly.
    Can someone explain me which one should i prefer or how people are generally enrolling themselves for these users group.
    Thanks
    Sarayu

    As in anything Oracle, "it depends."
    Certainly the IOUG big yearly conference is worthwhile for most people. If you have to choose between that and Open World, it depends what you want. The best way is to get expert enough at something to be a presenter at both, that has both career and potentially remunerative rewards. But you need your employer to support you. Simply preparing for a presentation can make you more of an expert than you would have believed.
    Local groups vary - some wind up just being mouthpieces for vendors or certain possibly silly methodologies, others are as good as the big conferences. All one can say is "go and see."
    My personal opinion, having been going to user conferences for 30 years, is they can be the best deal around. But you have to put something into it to get anything out of it. People like to help you, and appreciate it if you help them.
