Creating a Workspace Manually in a Runtime Environment

To add a workspace in a runtime environment:

1. Start SQL*Plus and connect to the database where Oracle Application Express is installed as SYS. For example:

   • On Windows:

     SYSTEM_DRIVE:\ sqlplus /nolog
     connect sys as sysdba
     

   • On UNIX and Linux:

     $ sqlplus /nolog
     connect sys as sysdba
     

   When prompted enter the appropriate password.

2. Run the following statement:

   ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = APEX_030200
   

3. Run the following statement:

   BEGIN
   APEX_INSTANCE_ADMIN.ADD_WORKSPACE(WORKSPACE_ID,WORKSPACE_NAME, SCHEMA_NAME, SCHEMA_LIST)
   END;
   

   Where:

   • WORKSPACE_ID is the ID for the workspace. Auto-assigned if NULL.

   • WORKSPACE_NAME is the name of the workspace.

   • SCHEMA_NAME is the name of the primary schema to associate with the workspace.

   • SCHEMA_LIST is a colon delimited list of additional schemas to associate with the workspace.
