Adding HTTP server to OAS instance

Question

Hello,
We are using OAS10.1.2 for forms and reports.
Now, we would like to use 5 different set of forms like this:
set forms1 --> /forms1
set forms2 --> /forms2
etc...
In the same time the URL for the end users are different as well.
my question is:
What is the best way the setup this kind of OAS server ?
Thanks in advance
Youssef

You can do this all in a single Forms installation.
We did this by configuring five sections in the formsweb.cfg. If each set of Forms has a single directory, just specify a different value for the workingDirectory parameter for each configuration section.
If you need multiple directories, you probably have to create five copies of the default.env file. Specify a different .env file in the envFile property of each configuration section. In the specific .env files set a different FORMS_PATH for each configuration.
Now run the Forms by specifying config=forms1 or config=forms2 in the URL to call Oracle Forms, e.g.:
http://localhost:8889/forms/frmservlet?config=intern-local
