i seatch for such database file in oracle ? And why would you expect Oracle to have the same file(s) as some other product?
Oracle implements it's databases with multiple data files, not just one. And that's in addition to all of the various files that make up the software, apart from any databases.
You definately do not want to put the database files under ORACLE_HOME. If you have any choice at all, I wouldn't even want them on the same partition. A default installation and db creation may try to put them there simply because that is the one directory structure oracle can count on being there. But that is one default that is far from best practice.
The minimum partition configuration I'd want for a Windows server hosting an Oracle database is ....
c:\ - operating system only
d:\ - Oracle home, admin, and one set of all duplexed files (control, redo)
e:\ - all other database files
For the 'sandbox' setup on my personal laptop, where I only have a c: drive, I still break it out ...
c:\oracle\app\product\10.2.0 <-- Oracle Home
c:\ora1\mysid\ <--- some data files
c:\ora2\mysid\ <--- some data files
c:\ora3\mysid\ <--- some data files
Take a look at this: http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A97297_01/appg_ofa.htm
It is out of the 9i docs, and is directed to unix, but if you will read and understand the principles it is a good guide even for Windows. You can also google "optimal flexible architecture" and get lot's of other docs.
I dare say that at this point It would be a good investment in your career to go to tahiti.oracle.com. Drill down to your product and version. There you will find the complete doc library.
You should spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there. Learning where to look things up in the documentation is time well spent on your career.
Read the 2-Day DBA manual cover to cover.
Notice the 'search' function at that site.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Look in your alert log and find all the non-default initialization parms listed at instance startup. Then read up on each one of them in the Reference Manual. Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files, then look up what you see there in the network administrators manual.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.
Am I wrong ?

    How do I add a movie from my laptop to iTunes, what should be the file extension.

    The extension is usually .mov, .m4v, or .mp4.   But you can't just change the extension.  The movies have to be encoded in a particular fomat.  Anything downloaded from iTunes or plays in Quicktime player will be fine.

    And now anytime I am entering an ip-address I am asked if I want to download the file.

    I tried the index.html addition in case the server might send that file as text/html.<br />
    If your DSL modem has a support website then you can try to ask there for advice about how to configure the modem server.

  • OneNote recordings "We're sorry, we can't open the file because it is in use by another program."

    Constantly, OneNote breaks and screws up my recordings that are synced with my lectures. It is such a fragile process and very frustrating. As soon as I'm done recording, I press stop. When I test the recording, it says, "We're sorry, we can't open
    the file because it is in use by another program." I just recorded and then stopped it. If i close and reopen OneNote, it says, "oneNote is cleaning up from the last time it was open." And the recording still says it's in use by another program.
    I've even restarted the laptop and it still won't open. The only way i could salvage the file is if I copy and paste it into another folder, and then it will open through windows media player, but all the live syncing with my notes are gone. Where are these
    files stored? If I could save the sound and find the file/format that holds the syncing data again, I could work around this. They are no where to be found on my computer. Other forums give locations, but my folders are empty. Some other recordings work and
    sync nicely, but I have still lost many recordings to this error. However, if I play a file and then close it without stopping playback, that file, too, will now be unusable. It will be stuck as "We're sorry, we can't open..." no matter what i do
    and again i have to copy/paste it into a new folder and then move it back. I had the same problem on my last laptop. I record in Windows Media Audio 10 Professional at 192 kbs, 48 kHz, and stereo CBR. I need the high quality because the lecturer is too quiet.
    It seems to happen when I record long lectures, 45 min+. Shorter recordings tend to work fine.
    Please help, this would make note taking so much easier.

    A bit of a confusion on my part;
    Now we have created these REPORTS using Basic Crystal Report 10.5, which comes bundled with Visual Studio 2008 and .Net Framework 3.0. Now on our machines, we have never experienced any issues.
    Going by the above, you should have references to CR assemblies of version 10.5.3700 only. No other references.
    Now, looking at this paragraph:

  • Error: The file is either corrupt or using....

    I am attempting to open a file I just did work on. I was saving periodically and closed the program properly. Now I am getting the error message:
    C:\Users\ritterbenjamin\Documents\Adobe\Audition\5.0\shittests\shittests.sesx
        Error: The file is either corrupt or using an unsupported format
    Is there a fix to this? I tried opening it up in a word doc and that didnt even work to examine.

    Unfortunately its sometimes difficult to recall some small detail which may have impacted.
    I don't know how many times I've been asked to fix some PC problem and when you ask the person what happened between the time it was working last and now and invariably the answer is 'nothing'.  Of course later you find that they had upgraded their OS, installed a new video card and a heap of cracked software or some other such events.
    'Oh I didn't think that made any difference' LOL
    I'm not saying this is the case with you but something has occured which is out of the norm otherwise every Audition user would have this problem every time they used Audition and that is certainly not the case.
    In my case (this is a few years ago) I went through a period where I would get a crash more often than not - to the point I was hesitant to do too much.
    I ended up writing a specific ses/sesx backup utility (http://www.mediasweeper.com.au/sesbackup.htm). Maybe use that before or after each session until confidence returns
    The crashes BTW were caused by a rogue video driver and since then the only crash I have had has been due to a dodgy plugin
    Bottom line is that any small detail you can offer will only go towards someone working out the cause.
    So think of things like - were you accessing the session across a network, was there something different about this session or the files used, a new hard drive, or new software or hardware just installed, etc, etc
    Also (and yes I know it is too late now) but any session which requires work spanning a number of days should always be backed up to at least one other location - most of us have been guilty of not doing that at least once

  • Move-item: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

    Hey,
    I have a powershell script where I first use Get-childitem to receive a number of files.
    Then I do some stuff with it and try to move the file afterwards.
    Unfortunately if I am using a lot of files I receive very often the error:
    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    Even -Force parameter does not help further.
    Based on my look around it is not used by another process.
    I think it is still 'in use' by powershell from script commands previously.
    Is there any way to 'see' if the file is still in use currently and wait for this to end?
    Or can I 'close' the current usage of the file?
    Thank you :)

    Hey,
    Thank you.
    I build the following function.
    But either the $return = $true I receive "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." when I try to move-item... :(
    Function Wait-FileUnlock($FilePath){
    Write-Host " "
    $FileInfo = New-Object System.IO.FileInfo $($FilePath)
    DO{
    try{
    $fileStream = $fileInfo.Open([System.IO.FileMode]::Open, [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read, [System.IO.FileShare]::Read)
    $return = $true
    catch{
    Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 5
    Write-Host "." -NoNewline
    $return = $false
    While($return -ne $true)
    $Error
    return $return
    Another functions is:
    Function Wait-FileUnlock($FilePath){
    Write-Host " "
    DO{
    $Error.Clear()
    Rename-Item $FilePath $FilePath -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Out-Null
    Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 5
    Write-Host "." -NoNewline
    While($Error.Count -ne 0)
    This one waits .. but it seems not to end waiting at any time :(

  • The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process with Execute package task

    Hi,
    I've a master package that calls other packages with an Execute Package Task. Sometimes we have an error: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" and sometimes not. It seems random.
    We are working on a Terminal Server and the SQL Server database engine and the files are placed on another server. It seems that the errors doesn't occu when we run the packages on the server with a job. We can't log onto the windows server on this machine..
    Hennie

    I've seen this myself. On most occasions an immediate rerun would fix the issue. As stated this happens only when we try to run this from BIDs. From SQL agent job it always runs fine.

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • Cancel cannot save to the file because it is in use

    Hi guys,
    From a couple of days ago i cannot export ANY pdf file in InDesign withouth the "cannot save to the file because it is in use by one or more background tasks". It seems there is a "temporary files" are saving. So the trick is to delete the file from the Finder and save the PDF again. It is annoying that i cannot replace the pdf directly with the same name.
    Can i override this situation?
    Any help or ideas?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the fast reply
    Actually i learn before from a forum that could be an issue so i take care so the file is not marked. Nevertheless it keeps telling me the file is in use. What could it be?
    Cheers
