Windows Vista Oracle 10g Express Edition ODBC problem

Hi,
I am running my Oracle 10g Xpress Edition locally on Windows Vista Enterprise Edition. I am trying to create an ODBC connetion to the local XE using Window ODBC utility. I selected the Oracle in XE driver to create the connection, when I test it I get
Unable to connect
SQLState=S1000
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-28547: connection to server failed, probable Oracle net admin error...
I am new to Oracle kindly excuse my ignorance :-)

I think you should probably download the file again, it might be corrupt.

  • Install problems using VISTA, Oracle 10g Express edition and VS2005

    Hi,
    Has anybody got this to work yet?
    I'm on Vista Release Candidate 1, VS2005 and 10g Express.
    When I try to install the tools (ODTwithODAC10202) the install crashes VS2005.
    I can see the tools on the Visual studio menus, but any attempt to use them gives me a "Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio failed to load" error message.
    Any ideas?

    Have you got the VS 2005 addin to work on Vista? I installed on XP then upgraded to Vista (RTM) and the add-in no longer works. Am wondering whether to uninstall/reinstall or wait for Oracle to certify use with Vista.

  • Regarding oracle 10g express edition login problem

    Hi all,
    This morning, i downloaded 10g oracle express editon from oracle.com.. I installed sucessfully. i am able to login from the command line sucessfully..
    But when i am clicking on Goto database home page it is connecting http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex and it says page can not be displayed .. can anyone help me please its urgent
    Ganesh

    Hi Ganesh
    Try to chang your port - it worked on my installation see the following link:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/install/files/el5_11g_sqldev_apex.txt
    Additionnally do Perform the following in sqlplus logged on as sys:
    show parameter dispatchers
    This should return something like:
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    dispatchers string (PROTOCOL=TCP) (SERVICE=<sid>XDB)
    max_dispatchers integer
    When in your case the value of dispatchers is empty, you have to do the
    following:
    Define an entry in the init.ora (<sid> must be replaced by the sid of your 11.1.0.6db):
    dispatchers="(PROTOCOL=TCP)(SERVICE=<sid>XDB)"
    for example:
    dispatchers="(PROTOCOL=TCP)(SERVICE=v111XDB)"
    After the change you have to restart the database.

  • Oracle 10g Express Edition Beta 3 ODBC Driver Always Crashes

    I find that if you set up an ODBC Data Source for Oracle 10g Express Edition on Windows XP SP2 using the "Oracle in XE" driver, anything that tries to access it will crash, even the Windows ODBC Data Source Administratior if you click the "Test Connection" button.
    Having clicked the button, you get a window coming up entitled "Oracle ODBC Driver" with a yellow exclamation mark in it, with no other text in the window except for an OK button.
    If you press OK, then it crashes and goes through the "Please tell Microsoft about this problem" process....

    Hi,
    Thanks for your comment, but I can't get onto the XE forum.
    I found http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/xe/forum.html which says:
    Forum registration is possible only by downloading and installing Oracle Database XE. After installation, click on the "Registration" link from the Database homepage.
    However I find that the "Database Homepage" does not exist.
    Choosing the Oracle XE "Go To Database Home Page" takes my browser to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex which is not available even though my oracle server is running and sqlplus can talk to it.
    There's definitely nothing serving on tcp port 8080, as follows:
    [dcampbel@clevo]~> telnet localhost 8080
    Trying 127.0.0.1...
    telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

  • Oracle 10g express edition browser login problem

    Hi
    I installed oracle 10g express edition and after installing successfully logged in browser , unlocked hr login and also created one form then I shutdown the database and rebooted my pc and since then when I try to login to "go to Database Home page" after starting database , I get a cookie 127.0.0.1 with username and password, First of all I am not sure what username/password it is expecting, I believe it requires my Windows XP username and password , I tried to enter couple of times my pc login username which has administrator privileges, I also checked it has ora_dba group but after entering pc username , password browser opens saying "unauthorized". I created another os user and tried with that still same. I tried entering oracle password "SYSTEM" and password for it but still could not login, I tried HR username password still nothing.
    I tried disabling firewall but still same issue. I tried to re-install two time but still same .
    Start database dos prompt does show all the process are started successfully .
    I also did ping for 127.0.0.1 and it does ping.
    I tried everything what I knew.
    Can anyone please help me ..to resolve this issue .

    Hi
    This is how I resolved the browser login problem .
    I checked the listener log
    C:\OracleXE\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\NETWORK\log
    And found the error
    TNS-12542: TNS:address already in use
    TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    TNS-00512: Address already in use
    I have another version for oracle installed on my pc .
    I ended both the oracle process (Oracle.exe) through the Task Manager
    Then manually started “OracleServiceXe” service through Component Services
    Control Panel – Performance & Maintenance – Administrative – Component Services
    Then did following
    Programs – Oracle Database10g ExpressEdition – Start Database
    Programs – Oracle Databse10g ExpressEdition – Go to Database Homepage –
    Enter username SYSTEM
    Enter password xxxxxx … whatever given at the time of installing.
    And I did successfully login to the browser .
    Hope this will help to those of you who have run into similar problem which I faced
    Good Luck .

  • I have a problem with oracle 10g express edition

    Hello,
    I have just installed oracle 10g express edition and I have a problem with the script editor. I can write anything in the window that appears below buttons undo,redo and find, It is like disabled. I use windows XP, Firefox 2.0 ( I have also tried with Iexplorer and It does not work either). I have javascript enabled.
    anyone knows what is the problem?
    Later,I have installed it in a virtual machine of Windows 2003 Server and It works well but I`d rather use it in my Microsoft XP
    Thank you very much
    Fernando Martínez

    It looks like you can fix this if you replace the codearea.xbl.xml and codearea.iframe.html files in the
    /i/editor folder with files from an Apex 2.2.1 installation - such as the one on apex.oracle.com.
    Since I don't know what the licensing implications are, I will let you figure out the details.

  • Installing and Running Oracle 10g Express Edition on Microsoft Vista

    My computer is running on Microsoft Vista.
    I downloaded Oracle 10g Express Edition for Vista.
    I ran the setup.exe. Everything went well there.
    But, when I open the SQLPlus program, a window prompts me to enter my username, password and host string.
    Can someone please tell me what it is expecting for these fields? I am using the same username and password I used to create my Oracle account.
    But what is the host string?

    Oracle XE has it's own forum - to register and discuss XE problems with XE experts use URL http://www.oracle.com/technology/xe/registration
    Once you have registered, you sign in to the forums and the link to the XE forum is there. But you do have to sign in as the user who registered XE.
    You will also need to provide a few more pieces of information:
    1) actual distro and version of Linux
    2) userid used to install XE (should be root)
    3) userid used to run "/etc/init.d/oracle-xe start" (should be root)

  • Download Oracle 10g express edition for window

    I want to download Oracle 10g Express Edition, but it seems that this version is replaced by 11g Express version.
    Is there any place which I can download 10g Express Edition?
    Thank.

    I think Oracle Corp. has removed 10g XE download because Oracle Corp. is pushing more for 11g now (10g XE was never officially supported but 10.1 and 10.2 Standard/Entreprise Edition are already in extended support mode: 10.2 will be in sustained support mode in July 2013).

    I tried to use the "classic" unistall function from the control panel but it didn't work. When I clicked "unistall" the oracle icon disappeared and but the program is still there.
    Is there any other way to unistall it?

    I used this process and it worked:
    1. Stop all oracle services
    2. Delete all oracle registry entries
    3. Delete C:\program files\oracle directory
    4. Delete oracle_home directory
    5. Delete oracle items from the start menu.
    Interesting link for other that may be in the same situation in the future:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/misc/ManualOracleUninstall.php
    extract from the link:
    QUOTE
    In the past I've had many problems uninstalling all Oracle products from Windows systems. Here's my last resort method:
    * Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
    * Run regedit.exe and delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key. This contains registry entires for all Oracle products.
    * Delete any references to Oracle services left behind in the following part of the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/Ora*
    It should be pretty obvious which ones relate to Oracle.
    * Reboot your machine.
    * Delete the "C:\Oracle" directory, or whatever directory is your ORACLE_BASE.
    * Delete the "C:\Program Files\Oracle" directory.
    * Empty the contents of your "c:\temp" directory.
    * Empty your recycle bin.
    At this point your machine will be as clean of Oracle components as it can be without a complete OS reinstall.
    Remember, manually editing your registry can be very destructive and force an OS reinstall so only do it as a last resort.
