## Post-Installation Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Verify Services Running
|
|
|
|
Open Services (services.msc) and verify:
|
|
|
|
| Service | Status | Startup Type |
|
|
|---------|--------|--------------|
|
|
| OracleServiceXE | Running | Automatic |
|
|
| OracleOraDB21Home1TNSListener | Running | Automatic |
|
|
|
|
Or via PowerShell:
|
|
```powershell
|
|
Get-Service Oracle* | Format-Table Name, Status, StartType
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Test Connection
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Set Oracle environment
|
|
$env:ORACLE_HOME = "C:\app\oracle\product\21c\dbhomeXE"
|
|
$env:PATH = "$env:ORACLE_HOME\bin;$env:PATH"
|
|
|
|
# Test connection to CDB
|
|
sqlplus system/romfastsoft@localhost:1521/XE
|
|
|
|
# Test connection to PDB (for applications)
|
|
sqlplus system/romfastsoft@localhost:1521/XEPDB1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Expected output:
|
|
```
|
|
Connected to:
|
|
Oracle Database 21c Express Edition Release 21.0.0.0.0 - Production
|
|
Version 21.3.0.0.0
|
|
|
|
SQL>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## CDB/PDB Architecture
|
|
|
|
Oracle XE uses Container Database (CDB) architecture:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
+---------------------------------------------+
|
|
| CDB: XE |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
| | CDB$ROOT - System, SYS objects | |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
| | PDB$SEED - Template (read-only) | |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
| | XEPDB1 - Application Data (ROA) | |
|
|
| +---------------------------------------+ |
|
|
+---------------------------------------------+
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Container | Purpose | Connect To |
|
|
|-----------|---------|------------|
|
|
| XE (CDB$ROOT) | Administration, SYS | Admin only |
|
|
| XEPDB1 | Application data | ROA applications |
|
|
|
|
> **Important:** Always connect to **XEPDB1** for ROA operations, not XE!
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Verify PDB Status
|
|
|
|
```sql
|
|
-- Connect as SYSDBA
|
|
sqlplus sys/romfastsoft@localhost:1521/XE as sysdba
|
|
|
|
-- Check PDB status
|
|
SELECT name, open_mode FROM v$pdbs;
|
|
|
|
-- Expected output:
|
|
-- NAME OPEN_MODE
|
|
-- --------- ----------
|
|
-- PDB$SEED READ ONLY
|
|
-- XEPDB1 READ WRITE
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If XEPDB1 is MOUNTED (not READ WRITE):
|
|
```sql
|
|
ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE XEPDB1 OPEN;
|
|
ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE XEPDB1 SAVE STATE;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Ce NU trebuie făcut manual
|
|
|
|
Următoarele sunt create **automat** de scriptul `01-setup-database.ps1`:
|
|
|
|
| Component | Script |
|
|
|-----------|--------|
|
|
| Tablespace ROA | `01-setup-database.ps1` |
|
|
| DMPDIR directory | `01-setup-database.ps1` |
|
|
| Password profile (UNLIMITED) | `01-setup-database.ps1` |
|
|
| User CONTAFIN_ORACLE | `01-setup-database.ps1` |
|
|
| sqlnet.ora (client vechi) | `01-setup-database.ps1` |
|
|
|
|
**NU rula manual comenzile SQL pentru acestea** - scripturile le fac automat!
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Enterprise Manager Express
|
|
|
|
Access EM Express web interface:
|
|
```
|
|
https://localhost:5500/em/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Login:
|
|
- Username: system
|
|
- Password: romfastsoft
|
|
- Container: XEPDB1 (or leave empty for CDB)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Memory Configuration
|
|
|
|
Check current memory settings:
|
|
```sql
|
|
SHOW PARAMETER memory;
|
|
SHOW PARAMETER sga;
|
|
SHOW PARAMETER pga;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
XE defaults (cannot exceed due to license):
|
|
- SGA: 2 GB max
|
|
- PGA: 2 GB max
|
|
|
|
For better performance within limits:
|
|
```sql
|
|
-- Automatic memory management
|
|
ALTER SYSTEM SET MEMORY_TARGET = 2G SCOPE = SPFILE;
|
|
ALTER SYSTEM SET MEMORY_MAX_TARGET = 2G SCOPE = SPFILE;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### OracleServiceXE Not Starting
|
|
|
|
1. Check Windows Event Viewer for errors
|
|
2. Verify disk space (need 15+ GB free)
|
|
3. Check Oracle alert log:
|
|
```powershell
|
|
Get-Content C:\app\oracle\diag\rdbms\xe\XE\trace\alert_XE.log -Tail 50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cannot Connect to XEPDB1
|
|
|
|
```sql
|
|
-- Connect to CDB
|
|
sqlplus sys/romfastsoft@localhost:1521/XE as sysdba
|
|
|
|
-- Check PDB status
|
|
SELECT name, open_mode FROM v$pdbs;
|
|
|
|
-- Open if mounted
|
|
ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE XEPDB1 OPEN;
|
|
ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE XEPDB1 SAVE STATE;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### ORA-12514: TNS listener does not know of service
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# Check listener status
|
|
lsnrctl status
|
|
lsnrctl services
|
|
|
|
# Restart listener
|
|
lsnrctl stop
|
|
lsnrctl start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Uninstall Oracle XE
|
|
|
|
If needed, run the universal installer in deinstall mode:
|
|
```powershell
|
|
C:\app\oracle\product\21c\dbhomeXE\deinstall\deinstall.bat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or via Control Panel > Programs and Features.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
After Oracle XE installation:
|
|
|
|
1. Copy `config.example.ps1` to `config.ps1`
|
|
2. Edit `config.ps1` with your settings
|
|
3. Run `01-setup-database.ps1`
|
|
|
|
See main `README.md` for complete workflow.
