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.

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

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.

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:
Cannot load /oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_3/Apache/Apache/libexec/mod_wl128_20.so into server: /oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_3/Apache/Apache/libexec/mod_wl128_20.so: undefined symbol: apr_pool_cleanup_null
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.

Mod_osso behavior differences with 10gR3 Oracle HTTP Server 2

We have an install of standalone 10gR3 Oracle HTTP Server 2 (i.e. the Apache 2 version), and have noticed that the behavior of mod_osso is different than the regular 10gR3 Oracle HTTP Server (i.e. the Apache 1 version).
We use the following in our mod_osso.conf:
<Location /somepath>
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
</Location>
First Difference: With OHS 2, when we go to /somepath, we get the error "missing AuthName" in the Apache logs.
So, we set an AuthName. Now, our mod_osso.conf looks like this:
<Location /OnDemand>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Oracle Single Sign On"
require valid-user
</Location>
Second Difference: Now, we we go to /somepath, Apache returns a 401, which causes the browser to prompt for credentials! We can enter anything we want in the dialog, and everything will continue as normal (i.e. redirects to the Oracle SSO Server to prompt for credentials, etc).
So, our question is: Why these behavior differences in 10gR3 OHS 2? It almost seems as if it's using an old 9i mod_osso!
Thanks,
- Bill

Okay, we figured it out.
Apparently, the three "LoadModule mod_auth*" lines in OHS 2 httpd.conf need to be commented out.
Now mod_osso is working exactly as with OHS 1.

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

Problem with starting Oracle HTTP Server

Oracle HTTP Server as web tier for OBIEE - Best Practices?

Hi All,
A bit of a cross-topic issue - IHAC which wants to add a web tier (in a form of additional DMZ server with Oracle HTTP Server installed) to existing OBIEE installation.
Are there any best practices regarding all the security aspects - installations, ports, SSL, certificates, keystores etc. ?
Thank you in advance,

Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) Installation Problem on Win 2003 Server SP2

Hi,
I tried to install Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) on my Windows 2003 server SP2, however I couldn't manage to succeed this.
I tried on 3 different win2003 server SP2 machines and couldn't able to install properly.
I easily installed and run this HTTP server on my Windows 7 machine. However on the other partition of my PC
windows server 2003 is installed. It didn't worked on this OS.
Once I was somehow able to install OHS on my 64 bit Windows 2008 Server, but again never:((
I got the following error messages during the install.

A few guesses what could be wrong.
- Under which user are you installing, does this user have all the rights to create and start stuff.
- Have you first installed a weblogic server (this should be installed) and did associate any components with the weblogic domain?
I usually do not associate anything with my weblogic domain and configure the httpd.conf file for the Apache server by hand instead of using the enterprise manager.
Once the WebLogic server is installed i follow the following steps
Installation WebTier
Run setup.exe
Select Install Software - Do Not Configure.
Click Next.
Prerequisite Checks --> Next.
Accept the default installation directory.
Click Next.
Uncheck i wish to... click Next (in the pop-up Yes)
Click Install.
Click when the installation it finished and click Finish
Configuration WebTier
Run the file <WebTier-Home>/bin/config.bat.
Click Next
Uncheck Associate Selected Components with WebLogic Domain and click Next
Accept the defaults and click Next
Enter the parameters for the WebCache
Web Cache Administrator Password: password
Confirm Password: password
Click Next.
Select Auto Port Configuration and click Next.
Uncheck I wish to... and click Next. (pop-up Yes)
Click Configure
Click Next and Click Finish
When i follow the above steps an instance of the webtier is running.

Installation Problem about ORACLE HTTP SERVER 10g

I tried to install oracle http server on windows xp sp2. Everthing was all right until
it made some recommend tasks while installing. It could'nt start the http server at there. I completed the installation. After then when i connect to the internet and try to start http server it starts. But when i do not connect to the internet it gives an error like apache.exe couldn't start on executing ApacheModuleonsinst.dll. I want to learn what causes to this problem.

With this type of behaviour, you always need to find out the real error.
Try opening a command prompt (cmd) and running the command from the command line.
Then you can see what is going wrong.I have a question, I just upgraded our test 11i database (9i) to 10g (10.2), as a part of that upgraded forms, reports, graphics to patchset 18. Now planning to install 10giAS on appsTier on which forms, Apache and discoverer running. If I install 10giAS in differnet home, how can I get that in to appsTier?, does it mean adapcctl script no longer be used to start webservices?. I haven’t done this before, if my question is stupid, please ignore :).

How to configure Oracle HTTP server

Hi, I installed APEX 3.0 in Oracle 10.2.0.2 database. I installed HTTP server from Oracle 10.2.0 database companion CD. The problem is I am not sure which conf file I need to modify as in the installation document, it only shows steps for how to configure HTTP server 9.0.3/11g/Oracle Application Server 10g. Anybody knows where to get the right doc? Thanks.

Hi,
Configure the Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) from the companion CD is the same for other OHS (apart from OHS 9.x where it uses wdbsvr.app).
So just follow the install guide from
4.4 About Configuring Oracle HTTP Server
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B32472_01/doc/install.300/b32468/post_inst.htm#BHAGICFJ

Can Oracle HTTP Server 2.0 be installed with Oracle App Server 10.1.3.4.0?

Or I guess a related question is what version of apache comes with the latest App Server Patch Set (10.1.3.4.0)?
We are running OAS 10.1.3.3.x and we are having issues with URLs that end in a number but which have query parameters at the end.
E.g. http://<stuff_here>/1?type=table&format=html
The URLs come from REST-ful GET operations. It seems like the HTTP server just ignores the query parameters completely.
When we run against stand-alone OC4J which includes an embedded HTTP server, such URLs work as expected.
We are hoping that perhaps the latest patch set for the full Oracle Application Server 10g will overcome this issue.
But if we need to move to a later Oracle HTTP Server (like the one that comes as an option for the Oracle 11g database installation) we would be willing to do so.
Comments related to this are welcome.
Thanks
Jim

Hi,
Does anyone have experiece getting Apex working with secured BI publisher?
The error I am getting when PDF printing from Apex to BI pub is:
"ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified.
Error failed
OK "
Please note, network services in 11G are already configured; thus I am able to print from Apex to non-secured BI pub.
Thanks,

Companion CDs for 64-bit Oracle HTTP Server for AIX5L(64 bit) required.

I need Companion CDs for 64 bit Oracle HTTP Server for AIX5L(64 bit).
I tried to install using
as_ibm_aix_companion_101300_disk1.cpio & as_ibm_aix_companion_101300_disk2.cpio
but when i checked the files present in <Oracle_Home>/ohs/lib , they are of 32-bit.
Also i tried with Oracle 10.1.2.0.2 but still the server is installed as 32-bit.
Is 64-bit Oracle HTTP Server supported on AIX5L(64 bit) ?
If yes, then from where can i download the CDs?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
