Advice Required Please

Question

Hi,
I would be grateful if anyone could advise on the following :
i) A client that I have is new to Oracle Application Express. What is the
considered practice as regards setting up workspaces for a set of developers
i.e. should one workspace be set up for each of the users to access or should
a workspace be set up for each user?
ii) If a customer wants to start creating applications, should they do so within a
newly created schema (of their choice) or should they use e.g. Hr?
iii) Where can I find the 'ctx' related password as regards the step in the
installation guide concerned with the Oracle Text requirement?
iv) In some older documentation (Apex v2.2 installation) concerned with the
installation of the HTTP Server on a Linux box, it mentioned about the fact that
the rc.local file in the /etc directory should be amended with appropriate values
in order to re-enable the restart of the HTTP Server in the event of a server
reboot - is that the general approach these days for v3.0.1 on that hardware?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Kind Regards,
Tom

Answer 1

i) Are the developers working on the same application? If so, you would want to set up one workspace. Accessing applications across workspaces from a central location can be tricky if not near impossible.
ii) The schema in which to create applications depends on how the database is going to be accessed. For example, our data warehouse site is using VPD, so we have our main schema DWRP where the data resides and the Application Express uses a schema called DATA_SCHEMA where the VPD functions are applied.
