How to install oracle 10g express edition in ubuntu

1. double click the oracle 10g installation file. it will check some dependencies. if some files are missing it will let you know. depending on that you have to install some more packages. it is almost certain that you will need libaio1 package. if it is required then just install it from the deb file you just downloaded. if there are no dependencies to be satisfied then install the package.

2. after the installation is finished you need to configure it. for that open the terminal and type
Code: Select All

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
it will ask for some port numbers. just press enter. it will keep the default port. it will also ask for the password. give it and then confirm it. then it will ask to whether to start it at startup or not. I would recommend no.

3. Now you have to add it to the bash. in the terminal type
Code: Select All

sudo gedit ~/.bashrc
at the end of the file add
Code: Select All

ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export ORACLE_HOME
export ORACLE_SID=XE

export PATH
now restart your pc.

4. At the time of login you will see a new account. dont worry by seeing it. now after logging into your normal account move to system>administration>user and groups. there select and enable that new account and set a password for that. now click on the manage group option. you will see a list of groups . select dba and click on properties. check your account and that new account (probably it will be named as oracle).

5. reboot it again. now login into that new account or your own account and start the database by applications>oracle database(something like that)>start database.
you can now access the database. for testing paste this link to the browser

http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex

6. for giving sql command just type the following in the terminal
Code: Select All

sqlplus sys as sysdba
it will ask for the password. give it

Exp/ Imp vs. ExpDP/ ImpDP in Oracle 10g

ORACLE Export (exp) vs Datapump (expdp)    ORACLE provides two external utilities to transfer database objects from one database to another database. Traditional exports (exp /imp) are introduced before 10g. Then from 10g, ORACLE introduced datapump (expdp / impdp) as an enhancement to traditional export utility. Traditional Export (exp/ imp) This is an ORACLE database external utility, which is used to transfer database objects from one database server to another database server. It allows transferring the database objects over different platforms, different hardware and software configurations. When an export command is executed on a database, database objects are extracted with their dependency objects. That means if it extracts a table, the dependences like indexes, comments, and grants are extracted and written into an export file (binary format dump file). Following is the command to export a full database, Cmd > exp userid=username/password@exportdb_...

Hi! I'm Java...

Java is a computer programming language. It enables programmers to write computer instructions using English based commands, instead of having to write in numeric codes. It’s known as a “high-level” language because it can be read and written easily by humans. Like English, Java has a set of rules that determine how the instructions are written. These rules are known as its “syntax”. Once a program has been written, the high-level instructions are translated into numeric codes that computers can understand and execute. Who Created Java? In the early nineties, Java was created by a team led by James Gosling for Sun Microsystems. It was originally designed for use on digital mobile devices, such as cell phones. However, when Java 1.0 was released to the public in 1996, its main focus had shifted to use on the Internet. It provided more interactivity with users by giving developers a way to produce animated webpages . Over the years it has evolved as a successful language for ...
