Oracle 12.2 - how to force APEX installation during database install? - oracle

Now that, since 12.2, Oracle no longer install APEX by default, is there a way to force the APEX installation during installation of the database? It's quite a pain having to manually re-install APEX after each 12c install.

One way you can accomplish this is by creating your own Database Template which includes APEX. Mike Dietrich has an excellent blog post about database templates here.
Keep in mind, that will install the version of APEX that is in the database home, which may not always be the latest version of APEX.
Whatever you do, I advise against installing APEX common (in CDB$ROOT), and only install it locally in a PDB.

Downgrade OBIEE 12c Repository to 11g

Is it possible to downgrade a 12c repository to OBIEE 11g on windows server?
I tried "nqgenoldverrpd.exe" way but I got error below
"Reading D:\TEMP\BI_Model\XX_Repository.rpd...
The following repository cannot be opened: D:\TEMP\BI_Model\XX_Repository.rpd"
Does anyone have any idea, please help me :)
nqgenoldverrpd only work within one product family. So inside the 11g product family or inside the 12c product family.
It does not support jumps from 11g to 12c.
Moving changes "down" one full release is a tricky thing and can lead to problems.

Facing problem during Conference upgradation

I am a newbie in this arena. Due to project demand, I had to install the newest version of Confluence. So, I have taken the backup and install confluence 6.12 on top of 6.6. After completing the installation when I hit the URL I have got the following error message.
Roll back the instance by restoring the backup you made prior to attempting the upgrade. Do this by creating a fresh Confluence install (I would recommend using the same version of Confluence that you used to create your XML backup). Restore the XML backup to this.
Get that site working normally first.
Then connect to a supported database.
Proceed with the upgrade.

If you are installing it on top of Weblogic, make sure you have installed
A Valid JDK for your machine (32 or 64 bit)
A Weblogic 12c (infrastructure)
When you are going to install forms/reports, point it to the Oracle_home which contains the WL infrastructure install.
On Oracle forums, people say it works for them.

The "official" way is to use the opatch lsinventory command (see Lsinventory Command for OUI-based Oracle Homes) but you could also check the version of the DLLs.

Is it possible for Oracle to run the old version of a package even after you've done a CREATE or REPLACE?

I have a package which I've just replaced and the method being called (ASP.NET client) is raising an error about an incorrect number of parameters.
If Oracle is still running the old version, how can I get it to discard the old "compiled" version?
Oracle 10g won't run the old version of a package after you've done a CREATE OR REPLACE (I'm assuming that you did that both for the package spec and the package body).
If you were using 11.2 and explicitly asked it do, Oracle can run two different versions of a piece of code in two different editions which would let some clients continue using the old edition and gradually migrate to the new edition. Edition-based redefinition is new in 11.2 though.
