Apex 5 upgrade of a restoration strategy

Currently I am planning an upgrade of our Production System, Oracle-11.2.0.3.0 Apex 4.0.1. It will be upgraded to version 5.0 of Apex. Done in our development environment, well I don't have to redo the bugs 90 + 30 applications for the workspace all in working order... ! So now he's ready to go Live so...

I want to test a strategy first, in which case he must regularize the upgrade. The production database can be disassembled or flashed as soon as the system has constant transactional processing. The upgrade of the Apex contains 30 applications in a single workspace. That's why I thought that the best approach would be

(1) stop the http service Apex (PL/SQL gateway)

(2) export all Apex Applications production using the ApexExport utility

(2) save all files to workspace directories

(3) run the apex 5 upgrade installation scripts then new schema APEX_050000 (I noticed that this does not APEX_040100 that persists?)

(4) I have then 30 apps for reinstall which had caused by the upgrade bug fixes applied.

(5) start the Apex http service.

So if everything goes wrong and I need to back out, how it would work as I have now 2 diagrams APEX_040100 and APEX_050000. What is the procedure to get rid of the APEX_050000? Is always APEX_040100 in a usable with my applications intact State?


Thanks in advance

See the following thread (and threads referenced in this thread): upgrade to 5.0 - best practices for the development of your upgrade strategy.

So if everything goes wrong and I must go back out, how this work as I would now 2 APEX_040100 and APEX_050000 patterns. What is the procedure to get rid of the APEX_050000? Is APEX_040100 still in a usable with my applications intact State?

Yes. The restore operation complete on a failure of the upgrade is discussed in the Documentation Oracle APEX (Setup Guide-> Installation troubleshooting)

Reference: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E59726_01/install.50/e39144/trouble.htm#HTMIG262

Refer to the APEX 4.0 Associates section APEX 5.0 installation troubleshooting.

  • Lov POPUP Oracle does not appear in Internet Explorer (since APEX 5 upgrade)

    The Lov POPUP does not work in Internet Explorer since the upgrade to 5 APEX.

    I noticed inspecting the modal window that has the css for HTML, the hidden visibility value.

    oracle_popuplov.PNG

    I can manually turn off what it works as expected. I tried to put CSS in the page 0 to force the visibility, but it doesn't seem to work because I think the modal charges in a separate instance, away from the clutches of page 0 .

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Question of logo as a result of the APEX 5 upgrade

    Hi all

    We have improved at APEX 4.2.6 5.02 now and things are almost without problems. There is hope, it is a small problem which is that the Oracle logo is not displayed when you are connected in the development environment.  It's that found at the top left of the pages in development mode (page 1000 for example).

    This region has a class of has head-apexLogo and it has a background image to specified... / IMG/apex - logo.svg, who is present and can be established without going through ADR fine, but there is a svg file - don't know if this is relevant.

    We use the following

    ADR 3.0.0

    APEX 5.02.00.07

    Oracle EE 11.2.0.4 64-bit

    WebLogic 10.3.6

    22.0.1229.96b m Chrome browser (but tried the new versions too without success)

    Someone at - it ideas what could be the problem please?

    Thank you

    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    We had the same problem, even if I remember correctly, the logo does not only when the URL is passed through our reverse proxy to Apache, he appeared fine when we entered the WLS URL directly. In any case, we managed to fix it by creating the mimemappings.properties file in the config folder for the WebLogic domain, with the following line (or just add it if the file already exists):

    SVG = image/svg + xml

    You probably need to restart WLS after you create the file, if it does not already exist.

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards

  • Disconnect all sessions APEX to upgrade an application

    HelloW,

    OK, it is well known that when you upgrade an application (replace with a new version) you must first log out of the application.

    If you do not do this, the application in your current session will become very unstable.

    I do not have the rights DBA. I'm a developer of simple applications

    I have a go of the business to upgrade a certain application in production with a new version that is firmly put to the test.

    What I want, is that a simple procedure to disconnect all currently connected users so I can move the application without having to worry about volatile sessions.

    IMHO, this should be possible in the worksheet sql out of my work space where only application developers have access to.

    Is there a way to do it or what I really have to ask the DBA is to kill all sessions manually? Believe me, they don't like it

    What happens when the user has application to open in a page, but does not work. Can I transfer my application and the user begins to work again?

    Jari works if you deploy the application by using different application ID but the same alias applicationand don't give the URL containing the alias for users. The application in the dormant session is not available when the user then attempts to access it, and they start a new session using the alias of the app, which will now point to the version of the application with the new code.

    If always reuse the same ID you can also use the approach detailed in Re: user "Kick" to the application after the password has been changed. but compare version of the application rather than hash password. As you don't want no interaction with the new version of the app, change the point of treatment for on submit - before the calculations and Validations.

  • Help on vSphere 6 upgrade with a SSO strategy internal-> external PSC

    I would ask an idea and help on what and how to revamp our vsphere infrastructure.

    We have an environment that grow very fast in the last 2 years... from a Center unique vcenter/infrastructure for our server environment us growth data center 2 main + 1 small site with a 2nd arriving within a few months, and probably a good number of branches.

    Our main data center 2 are configured with vCenter 3 5.5:

    (1) our main Server vCenter

    (2) our Horizon vCenter for VDI

    (3) a vCenter dedicated to a separate set of servers for a specific project

    All the vCenter are now 5.5u2, but in the past our VDI vSphere still was 5.0, while the rest was upgaded to 5.1 and 5.5.

    The 3) is an environment dedicated with some software/configuration that could conflict or be managed in a way different from our current infrastructure (this ban could remain in an earlier more time for example).

    All these vCenter are configured with a SSO Multisite separated by the environment, so we have a Multisite SSO for server, 1 for VDI and 1 to 3).

    Our vCenter have the PSO and all integrated services in the windows server and a database of separate SQL Server for each of them.

    Verification of certain documents on the vSphere 6 that I noticed that it seems that we have a setup that has somehow changed and thinking about the future and the implementation of new products, I would like to understand how we could manage these infrastructure and how we can join it.

    In this document http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2108548 it seems that manage sites that have integrated the PSC and vCenter Server on the same host is not a recommended way, thinking at least about our vCenter Server main (2 different in 2 sites) infrastructure, we must separate the PSC making external.

    Should we move the SSO outside our 5.5 infrastructure server now before moving on to 6 so that we could improve PSC external SSO and just update our vCenter server or there's a way during the upgrade to the PSC on an external server (such as installing on a new server and migrate SSO to external PSC)?

    Think in the future, we probably want to unify the PSC and use the same servers PSC (2 ha with a LB probably in each site). It is possible during the upgrade a server vcenter Server to migrate from the SSO server/PSC is using another?

    If you want to go out of style incorporated into the external PSC; currently during the upgrade you can not change this IE if it integrated with 5.5 and then it will continue in embedded mode. Future update could be an option / tool to move to external embedded mode PSC post upgrade (this tool is nevertheless do you updated or not; deployment embedded 6.0 can be converted into vCenter pointing to external PSC).

    From now on if you want to pass to the external PSC mode then to 5.5 installation embedded itself move first on external SSO. You can do this by installing separate SSO and re - point your existing inventory, webclient and VC than SSO service. Below KB provides details on the re-score-

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2033620

    Once you are done with the re - verse you can start the upgrade with PSC external.

  • APEX 4.2.6 Upgrade with unique ORACLE_HOME supporting multiple databases

    We have a single server (Solaris) with a single ORACLE_HOME supporting multiple databases (all the 11.2.0.3 with APEX 3.0.2 installed).  A new database was created here just to make the development of the APEX.  It must be upgraded to APEX 4.2.6.  None of the old databases use APEX.  Upgrading replaces $ORACLE_HOME/apex.  What is the upgrade on the pre-existing database?  They will also release APEX upgraded?  Thank you.

    Hi Michael,

    If I understand your question, you want to upgrade APEX in the instance of a database. Fix?

    The upgrade of APEX can be done in a database without affecting other databases. Simply run the apexins.sql script in the database when you use APEX.

    Regarding the images in your $ORACLE_HOME/apex, it depends on the configuration of your Web server. You can configure your webserver (ADR, OHS, EPG) to get the images in the same directory or in another.

    See: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37097_01/install.42/e35123/toc.htm

  • The upgrade of XE 10g to 11g XE... I must first upgrade Apex?

    I am currently on 10g Express and thinking about upgrading to the new 11g Express.

    Thank you!
    François

    Hello

    There is no need to upgrade the Apex. When you upgrade to 11G XE, your Apex is upgraded to version 4.
    After database upgrade, you can improve the Apex to the 4.1 version, if you wish.

  • Error ORA-01445 tabular form on a Collection in APEX 5

    When I load a page with a tabular presentation built on a display of a collection to the APEX 5, I'm getting an ORA-01445: cannot select ROWID, or the sample, a view of joining without an error table preserved key.

    I create a view

    CREATE or REPLACE FORCE VIEWS test_coll_vw

    (

    C001,

    C002,

    C003,

    C004,

    WHERE collection_name = 'TEST '.

    Then create a tabular presentation on the view with the primary key of the source SEQ_ID and primary key of the trigger existing through the wizard.

    Debug information shows the statement which is a failure:

    of 'WPCAMS_APP '. "" TEST_COLL_VW ".

    ) APEX$ RPTSRC

    order of 1, 7

    ).

    These tabular forms worked up to 4.2, but they seem to fail at 5 APEX for upgrade or newly created pages one.  The generated query is identical between versions, but it seems that the underlying apex_collections view has changed between versions and the origin of the problem.

    Does anyone have a solution or workaround?

    Thank you

    Hi Phil,

    APEX 5.0 the definition of the view of apex_collection had to be changed for security reasons. This change introduced a regression with tabular form validations, when the table refers to this view. Tabular form declarative validations require the ROWID in order to restore your changed data after a validation failed, and for this reason, APEX is insert the IDENTIFIER in the query in a table. It is currently not possible when tables refers to the sight of apex_collections. We are looking at a solution to this problem, but for now the only way to get around this is not, in this case, use the declarative validation and use some custom validations or process.

    Kind regards

  • Requirements for a good restoration of a vCenter 4.1

    Dear users,

    I plan to upgrade our vCenter 4.1 to 5.0 and my checks and documentation are saying that the upgrade will succeed, but I also want to assure you that I have a backup/restore good plan ready in case of disaster.
    I discovered that there is much to find online, but because it offers great and many different version, one speaks of is it hard to say what guidelines are good to follow for someone like me who doesn't have a lot of experience with VMware.

    So I thought that we will make a topic and put all the information that I have and that perhaps you users could check if my backup/restore strategy is over or I'm missing something and that you are willing to help me a helping hand in the present.

    My server information:
    -Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise
    -64-bit operating system
    -Databases located on the same server
    -Microsoft SQL Server 2005

    Backup and documentation
    1. I've got a backup of two databases
    -VIM_UMDB
    -VIM_VCDB

    2. I have a backup of the following SSL folder:
    C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL

    3. I have a backup of the following vpxd.cfg folder:
    C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter

    4. I stand cd Windows installation, vCenter and MS - SQL

    5 SQL Servername:
    Servername\SQLEXP_VIM

    6 SQL authentication:
    Windows authentication

    Missing points?
    -I see people talking at different locations on the backup of the SSL Certification, but one that is good?
    R: C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\Infrastructure\Update Manager\SSL
    B: C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL
    C: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware virtual Center\SSL\

    -I see people talk as the record sysprep, it needed backup for a good restoration, and what place is this acute issue?

    -What should I do with the Manager to update exactly because I do not understand what to do with it?

    Fast easy step how I intend to restore our vCenter
    1. install Windows
    2. install SQL
    3. replace the databases in the SQL
    4. install the vCenter, and then point to SQL databases
    5. run vSphere to log

    One thing you don't mention, is whether or not the vCenter and SQL servers are physical or virtual.  So I just did the clones and took backups vRanger connection before you start the upgrade mine are virtual.

Maybe you are looking for
