How to get standalone Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql?

Hi,
I do not know if it is just me but it seems to be a nightmare to get OHS with mod_plsql from the official OTN download site. I downoaded the companion CD for Windows - 3 disks, installed OHS - no mod_plsql. Then I tried to find any clue on OTN on how to download mod_plsql - none. Plenty of information on how to configure it and use it, but nothing on how to get it.
PLSQL gateways is not an option for us because many of our clients do not allow direct communication between the database and the Internet.
Windows 2003 Server R2
Apex 3.2.1
RDBMS 10.2.0.4
Any help appreciated,
WK
PS.
I would not like to download the software from unofficial sites but rather get it straight from Oracle.

Hi,
For those interested: I found Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql on OTN -> downloads -> middleware -> WebCenter suite.

What do I need for Oracle Http Server with mod_plsql on Linux 64bit?

I am trying to get the OHS onto a linux box but I am not quite sure I am installing the correct thing!!
I currently have a windows box running the 10g Application server but everything seems to have changed since then and there seems to be several different things to do with the Fusion Middleware and stuff. I've tried to find an overview in plain english of what all these things are but all I can find are lots of marketing buzzwords!
All in need to to be able to run the OHS with the mod_plsql so I can run my apex application. I'd be greatfull if someone could point me in the right direction for what I need to install!
The box it is going on is a CentOS Linux 64bit machine. I've download and installed Oracle WebLogic Server 11g Rel 1 (10.3.3) using the generic installer for the 64 bit java but there seems to be no http server despite it saying there is! Most likely I am doing something wrong but the installer finishes successfully but nothing is running on port 7001.
Do I actually need the WebTier instead? Is that the best solution for running the OHS with mod_plsql? Do I need the WebLogic install as well? Unfortunately I am fairly new to Linux as well which isn't helping!!
thanks for any help
Robert

Well, you have two options:
- Use the OHS from the OFM WebTier Utilities distro. (To use 11.1.1.3 version, you need both the 11.1.1.2 and 11.1.1.3 distros)
- Use the OHS from the DB Companion Disk distro.
WebLogic Server is a Java EE application with an HTTP server included, but not intended to be used as a replacement of OHS/Apache. It doesn't support mod's...

Need Oracle HTTP Server for mod_plsql and link to download software

Hi all,
I want to use mod_plsql to publish HTML from the database.
Therefore, I need an Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql.
I have installed the "Oracle HTTP Server with Apache 2.0 10.1.3.1", but there is no mod_plsql included! The welcome page refers to a "Oracle HTTP Server Standalone Administrator's Guide Based On Apache 2.0" which is not installed and can' t be found on OTN.
Can someone give me a link to Oracle HTTP Server installation software which includes mod_plsql?
Any hints are welcome!
Thanks, Markus

Based on the version of the database, you could use the listener from that - the same XML DB uses. That would not require an application server install at all.
Alternative: the mod_plsql replacement cartridge off Tom Kyte's site: asktom.oracle.com. Source only - compile against your preferred Apache

Need to Understand HTTP Server with mod_plsql

Hi -
I am a DBA and have been tasked with migrating our current setup Oracle 10g/Solaris/APEX 4.1 to Oracle 11g/Linux/APEX 4.1. I have completed the migration and have chose to use the embedded PL/SQL gateway for connections to the front end Apex Application.
The Embedded PL/SQL gateway is not that good. We are having connection issues where you might have to wait 5 minutes until you get the login page. Otherwise you just keep getting "cannot display webpage" errors.
In our old setup we had a seperate home from some type of APEX listener. I thiink it was the HTTP Server with mod_plsql. We had to run this command to start it (apachectl start). This was very reliable and I think I need to do the same on our new server. I cannot find documentation anywhere on how to install this home on the new server and how to set it up. Does anyone know where it is and point me in the right direction?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
>> I cannot find documentation anywhere on how to install this home on the new server and how to set it up
The following includes detailed instruction on how to install either the APEX Listener or the OHS.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21673/otn_install.htm#CBHBDAIF
>> The Embedded PL/SQL gateway is not that good …
You didn’t mention the size (and load) of your network, but the EPG was not intended to be used in a production environment. In any case, the document I pointed you to also includes some important configuration instructions for the EPG that dramatically improved its performance. Still, not recommended for crowded production environment.

Arie.

How to integrate Oracle Http Server with Weblogic

Weblogic supports Apache web server 2.0 and 2.2 to be a proxy server. Oracle Http Server (OHS) is based on Apache 2.0. I am trying to configure Weblogic to use OHS that comes with OAS install as proxy on Linux environment. I am unable to get the WLS plugin for Apache to work with OHS. When I tried to start the OHS, I got the following errors:
/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_3/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl startssl: execing httpd
Syntax error on line 1125 of /oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_3/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf:

I checked the library, and I found in several places, such as /usr/lib.
The following is the configuration that I put in http.conf file:
<IfModule mod_weblogic.c>
WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7001
MatchExpression /AIP
</IfModule>
<Location /weblogic>
SetHandler weblogic-handler
WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7001
DebugConfigInfo ON
PathTrim /weblogic
</Location>
Anybody knows how to fix this?
Thanks.

You're right: Weblogic supports Apache web server 2.0 and 2.2 to be a proxy server but you are using Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1.0 which is based on Apache *1.3* as you can read in "Oracle® HTTP Server Administrator's Guide"
10g (10.1.3.1.0) - Part Number B28948-01 - 1.1 Oracle HTTP Server Features, right under "Based on Apache - HTTP v1.1 Support" at
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28948/overview.htm#i1008837.
As far as I know, the only OHS based on Apache *2.0* is available as a standalone release: "Oracle HTTP Server (Apache 2.0) (10.1.3.3.0) for Linux x86" - 32bit. You can download it from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle11g/111060_linuxsoft.html (as_101330_apache2_lnx.zip).
I've tested it successfully.

How can we debug Oracle Http Server on AIX.

Our requirement is to attach a debugger (dbx) to oracle http server on AIX.
For that purpose we need to start the OHS webserver service that is opmn in a single process mode the way we start Apache webserver by -X option.
Can anyone help how can we start OHS in single thread.

I have installed Oracle Apex 4.1 on Oracle 10g database but I want to configure Oracle HTTP Server on another Server(Microsoft Windows 2008 R2). Here I have placed Apache Tomcat 6.0 version already. Can anyone please tell me how is it possible to install and configure Oracle HTTP Server on Windows 2008 along with Apache Tomcat?Why? Installing OHS and the DB on separate servers will incur additional licensing costs.
More common confugrations would be to use Apache as a reverse proxy to an OHS+DB server, or Tomcat+APEX Listener with a DB server and not using OHS at all. (Although I understand Tomcat is not an Oracle-supported platform for the APEX Listener. For any questions on this or other Listener-related topics use the {forum:id=858} forum.)

Oracle HTTP server with multiples apex instances

It is possible to have an Oracle HTTP server installed in a diferente machine,
and apex Installed on databases there are in diferent machines?
Or it would be necessary to install one HTTP server for each APEX instance?
For instance:
Machine 3
___________DATABASE A
Machine 1 Machine 2 /
WEB BROWSER -----------> HTTP SERVER /
\ Machine 4
\___________DATABASE B

Yes, you can define multiple DADs - pointing to different machines/APEX instances - in one OHS instance.

Oracle HTTP Server and mod_plsql

Hi there,
I have a problem using HTML DB on a small network. LAN consists of two computers with Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 1. Server has two NIC. One connected to the local internet provider (PPPoE) with TCP/IP set to "Obtain an IP address automatically" and second network adapter (for the LAN) with TCP/IP address 192.168.0.2. Second computer has NIC with IP 192.168.0.3. The server is set with HTML DB 2.0. There is NO ANY problem if I work on it as stand alone computer - second network adapter disable!
The problem arises if I connect the second computer and then start HTML DB by http://localhost:7777/"503 the service is temporary unavailable", emagent is down, DBconsole service is not active anymore, etc. Apache or Oracle HTTP Server is up.
I have found, after several days of troubleshooting, that the problem might be in httpd.config file. If somebody have experience in similar networks or Oracle HTTP Server settings please, give me advice or send httpd.conf file as an example.
Please help me!
Konstantin

Hi,
If I disable the network adapters and restart the computer, then connect to the HTML DB or my application, everything is OK. Then enable connection and I can work from both computers!

The dad.conf is empty because I am using marvel.conf. I just checked the rules to build such file. Listener uses as host name - computer name (in my case koncomp), but in all config files Oracle HTTP Server uses name localhost or 127.0.0.1. That is the reason for SYSMAN to make too separate folders in Oracle home named LOCALHOST_instancename and hostname_instanceename.

Configuring Standalone Oracle HTTP server (1.3) with Mid tier (10.1.2)

Hai All,
We have installed OHS 1.3 in DMZ and we have 10.1.2 midtier installed with B2B server in Firewall.
I have modified mod_oc4j.conf of standalone OHS with following content to route the requests to midtier
Oc4jMount /b2b/* instance://ap6003idmz.oracle.com:AS_10gR2_MID:OC4J_B2B
I restarted OHS and I tried http://ap6001eip.oracle.com:7777/b2b/transportServlet on standalone OHS but no use then I removed above line and added below line
Oc4jMount /b2b/* ajp13://ap6003idmz.us.oracle.com:12502
Restarted OHS abd tried above url but no use
b2b/transportServlet is a servlet deployed on midtier
What else do I need to route the requests from OHS to OC4J on midtier
Any suggestions..?
Thanks

Install SSL certificate for Oracle HTTP server

I received a PFX file that contains an SSL wildcard certificate for our company *.xyz.com.
I used this tool "xca" to extract two files: "server.crt" and "serverkey.pem".
I want to install this on the oracle 11g HTTP server (OHS) installed as standalone based on apache 2.2
With oracle, i have to create a wallet and point the SSL.CONF wallet directive to use that wallet.
I used Oracle Wallet Manager to create it and import the certificate but this is where i am having a problems.
First I could not restart the web server but the it worked but I got SSL handshake errors (Shown below).
According to oracle steps, I have to create a CSR and then import the certificate into the wallet
http://www.apache.com/resources/how-to-setup-an-ssl-certificate-on-apache/
However, when I tried to use Oracle Wallet Manager, there were two options: import server certificate and trusted certificate.
The import server certificate was greyed out. I had to create a CSR just to get it enabled but I did not use the CSR, i just imported the "server.crt" file.
I also tried to import the "serverkey.pem" into the trused certificate option but was rejected (invalid certificate).
Do you know how to create a successful wallet based on the files i have and not creating a CSR since i already have a certificate file?

I do not have weblogic installed. I only have standalone 11g HTTP server with mod_plsql.
If i can get OWM working to create a successful certificate them the problem would be resolved.
I am just not sure what is Root Certificate and Trustworthy Certificate and how to get that from the files i have.

Install Oracle HTTP Server to Oracle Database XE

Successfully managed to install Oracle Database XE to Windows 2000 (after temporarily dropping TNSNAMES and TNS_ADMIN variables). I want to learn how to use Application Express (formerly HTML DB) and it would be a pain/take ages to get the enterprise DBA's to install it onto a supported networked instance. I have installed HTML DB into Oracle XE but the post installation instructions require that Oracle HTTP Server is installed. How do you get Oracle HTTP Server installed into Oracle XE? Oracle Universal Installer does not recognise Oracle XE as an Oracle Home. How do you use Oracle Universal Installer on Oracle XE? or how do you download Oracle HTTP Server with InstallShield? Seems strange that Oracle XE does not integrate with other toolset installations.
Thanks

ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = FLOWS_020000;
exec FLOWS_020000.wwv_flow_upgrade.switch_schemas ('FLOWS_020000','FLOWS_020100');commit;I would give it a try, it's hard to make it worse ;).
Oracle XE / Apex is almost the same.
Some of the differences are:
- SSO authentication is not supported out of the box (although there are workarounds)
- You can assign only a single database schema to a workspace
- There are no developer accounts in the workspaces
Basically, both version are pretty much the same. You can export / import applications both ways.
I cannot see what you mean by missing templates. They are all there (although not in the filesystem but stored in the database via XMLDB).
You can reach the documentation from the homepage of XE and also from Start > Programs > Oracle Express Edition

Oracle HTTP Server for APEX3.2

I am a DBA but new to APEX.
On page 4-15 of APEX3.2 Installation Guide, it says
Install from the Database and Configure Oracle HTTP Server
This section describes how to configure Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql
distributed with Oracle Database 11g or Oracle Application Server 10g.
It seems that Oracle HTTP Server is neither distributed with the database CD nor Example CD. Am I right?
Also, can I use HTTP Server bundled with OMS to serve as HTTP Server for APEX? Will that impact Grid Control?
EPG is not considered.
Thanks,
Kevin

Hi
When using Grid of course, there is a HTTP server
When having the Rdbms, you need the companion cd or use one of products that has already HTTP server .... ( Example ; IAS, etc )
Kind regards,
Iloon

Down Time for Installing APEX 4.2.1 and oracle HTTP server?

Hi, all:
I plan to install APEX 4.2.1 and oracle HTTP server on 10.2.0.4 database.
Is there any down time required during installation?
I mean during installation, do I need to block users from accessing the database?
Can they do their normal data entry / inquiry?
thanks,
John
ps. There will be server backup before installation.

Hi,
Documentation says
>
3.1 Recommended Pre-installation Tasks
Before installing Oracle Application Express, Oracle recommends that you complete the following steps:
Review and satisfy all Oracle Application Express installation requirements. See "Oracle Application Express Installation Requirements".
Shut down with normal or immediate priority the Oracle Database instances where you plan to install Oracle Application Express. On Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) systems, shut down all instances on each node.
An alternative to shutting down the database is to prevent all users from accessing Oracle Application Express when upgrading your installation from a previous release of Oracle Application Express. Oracle only recommends this option in high availability production environments where planned outages are not available. For all other scenarios, the database should be shut down.
To disable access to Oracle Application Express when the existing installation is using the Application Express Listener, shut down the appropriate application server where the Application Express listener is deployed.
To disable user access to Oracle Application Express when the existing installation is using the Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql, you should either shut down the Web server or disable the Application Express Database Access Descriptor of the Web server.
For an existing installation using the embedded PL/SQL gateway, you should disable the Oracle XML DB Protocol Server by setting the HTTP port to 0. This can be accomplished by starting SQL*Plus, connecting as SYS to the database where Oracle Application Express is installed, and running:
EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT(0);
Once you have prevented access from Oracle Application Express users, you should log into SQL*Plus as SYS, connecting to the database where Oracle Application Express is installed, and query V$SESSION to ensure there are no long running sessions which would interfere with the upgrade process.
Back up the Oracle Database installation.
Oracle recommends that you create a backup of the current Oracle Database installation before you install Oracle Application Express. You can use Oracle Database Recovery Manager, which is included in the Oracle Database installation, to perform the backup.
See Also:
Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide
Start the Oracle Database instance that contains the target database.
After backing up the system, you must start the Oracle instance that contains the target Oracle database. Do not start other processes such as a Web Listener. However, if you are performing a remote installation, make sure the database listener for the remote database has started.

Oracle http Server (standalone)

I am going to install APEX 3.2 and as the pre-requisite, I need to install standalone Oracle HTTP server. In checking thru the Oracle web-site, it only appears under the integrated Oracle SOA Suite 10g.
I have checked that some of the old version of APEX 2.2 just in need of standalone Oracle HTTP server. But for the sake of the pre-requisite of APEX 3.2, it is Oracle Application Server 10g.
My questions are:-
- Is there any standalone Oracle HTTP server to be downloaded and installed?
- Any installation guide for Oracle HTTP server or Oracle SOA Suite 10g?
- In the installation of Oracle SOA Suite 10g, can it be extracted with installing Oracle HTTP server or it has to install all the components of SOA Suite?
Thanks for sharing your experience.

3.2 Choosing an HTTP Server
In order to run, Oracle Application Express must have access to either the embedded PL/SQL gateway or Oracle HTTP Server and mod_plsql. To learn more, see "About Choosing an HTTP Server".
This is from Oracle's documentation so you do need BOTH.

APEX and Oracle HTTP server

Scenario
We are considering using APEX with Oracle 10g. However, we don't have Oracle application server.At the same time we do not want to use the Oracle HTTP server(OHS) on the database server. The propsed application intend to use by approx. 5000 users
Questions
As APEX requires just OHS and mod_plsql plugin,
1. Can we install just Oracle HTTP server and mod_plsql on standalone server? Which CD need to be used?
2. Can OHS can be licensed separately as Oracle Internet application server(Enterprise Edition) based on processor licensing is expensive and not affordable.However, there are other options like Standard Edition and Standard Edition One as well but do not require any other options except OHS and mod_plsql plugin.Hence, what is the cost effective option to have OHS and mod_plsql as a middle tier component to deploy APEX applications
Thanks in advance

All,
I'm by no means a security expert, but I don't think this is a best practice. I think the best practice is to use two HTTP servers: one in the DMZ and one on the DB server. The one in the DMZ can be a standard Apache install - it acts as a proxy server and does not need mod_plsql. The second should be OHS. This configuration allows you to block ports that are usually used to communicate with the DB from the server in the DMZ.
Did I get that right or am I way off?

Dan
