Can i drop the "APEX_050100" user in my DB to change TIME_ZONE?

GadoMar 13 2018 — edited Mar 14 2018

Hello experts,

I'm using DBCS 11.2.0.4

Today i noticed that DB time zone is "+00:00".

We are in Cairo/Egypt so it should be "+02:00"

When i tried to alter using (alter database set TIME_ZONE = '+02:00';) it showed error:

ORA-30079: cannot alter database timezone when database has TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE columns.

Since i'm sure i'm not using this in my DB i issued this query to find where am i using this:

select owner, table_name

from   dba_tab_columns

where  data_type like 'TIMESTAMP%WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE';

Result:

APEX_050100    WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_NOTIFY

APEX_050100    WWV_FLOW_WORKSHEET_NOTIFY

APEX_050100    APEX_PKG_APP_INSTALL_LOG

APEX_050100    APEX_PKG_APP_INSTALL_LOG

APEX_050100    WWV_FLOW_PKG_APP_INSTALL_LOG

APEX_050100    WWV_FLOW_PKG_APP_INSTALL_LOG

OE    ORDERS

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_CONTENTS

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_CONTENTS

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_CONTENTS

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_HEADER

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_HEADER

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_HISTORY

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_LOG

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_LOG

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_PREF

APEX_050100    APEX$ARCHIVE_PREF

APEX_050100    APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_IR_SUB

APEX_050100    APEX_APPLICATION_PAGE_IR_SUB

So what is APEX_050100 user exactly?

Can i drop it without breaking something?

Thank you

Gado
