Getting Started with Oracle APEX 4.0 on Oracle Database 11g Express Edition
After successfully install the Oracle Database 11g XE, then we need to set up the workspace to start working with Oracle APEX 4.0. New workspace concept introduced in Oracle Apex 4.0 which previously did not exist. Workspace itself is a work area that consists of many user login. User login here different from the database user login. Without workspace we can not make an application with Oracle APEX 4.0. Here are the processes of making the workspace on Oracle APEX 4.0: 1. Before proceeding with Workspace management, first create database user USERPOS with the password pos123. SLQPLUS system/<yout_anda> Once successfully logged in, type the following: CREATE USER userpos IDENTIFIED BY pos123; Give the DBA to grant the user USERPOS. DBA is a privilege for the database administrator. We use this privilege to focus more on Oracle APEXnya. GRANT dba TO userpos; 1. Log in to the APEX (http:// http://localhost:8080/apex) using the ADMIN user on INTERNAL workspace. Password for the admin user is the password you specified during installation of Oracle database XE.
