Apex Listener Images... urgent help

I followed the steps in this doc to install apex listener with weblogic, and got it running
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_listener_install_web.html
but I cannot for the life of me find where to put the images directory on here.... can someone help me out?
this is a windows 2003 machine.
I copied into the images directory in C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_PFRD\j2ee\home\default-web-app\docs
and copied a new directory called "i" in here.... anyone able to help me out?
Thanks,
Scott

I found an image on this site, but my listener config looks different
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_HTPuwjEAZfk/SZngkENGFSI/AAAAAAAAAM8/W6UmUx5mvtM/s1600-h/ListenerConfig.JPG
at the bottom of mine, it says
Files can be stored for quick access and will expire at the specified duration. and for file storage, does not give /i location

Apex listener images deployement

Hi
I installed the APEX listener recently. I have a question. Can I deploy the images in a different way other than jar them and then deploy to WLS. I have a lot of custom images/javascripts reside under the /i/ virtual path (e.g. /i/extjs). The images and javascripts change frequently. I guess that every time this happens I have to create a new i.war and redeploy which is not so convenient. Is there any other way to do that (e.g. copy them directly to a directory as I was doing with OHS/modplsql)
Thanx
George

Hi George,
you could do this by locating the directory where the WLS has unpacked the deployment to. But the more I think about this, the more I think you shouldn't do that, because staging etc. makes this very complex again.
Instead of deploying the images as war file, you could add a virutal directory mapping, which is far easier.
It should be possible to do that in the weblogic.xml of the apex.war (unpack the war, edit the file, repack the war, similar to what you'll do if you edit the web.xml, e.g. to change to config.dir parameter). See the [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/webapp/weblogic_xml.html#1039396]corresponding part of the WLS documentation for details on that parmaeter. The result could be a weblogic.xml as follows
<weblogic-web-app xmlns="http://www.bea.com/ns/weblogic/weblogic-web-app">
<container-descriptor>
<prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
</container-descriptor>
<virtual-directory-mapping>
<local-path>/opt/oracle/apex/images</local-path>
<url-pattern>/i/*</url-pattern>
</virtual-directory-mapping>
</weblogic-web-app>if your images are stored in */opt/oracle/apex/images* .
Not that this can cause node specific dependencies if you have a clustered WLS, and that you'll have to undeploy the i-application before you can redeploy the apex.war.

Apex listener images folder issue

Hi expert,
I'm newbies in oracle apex listener and would like to know more about oracle apex listener from all the expertise.
My situation is like that i would like to install apex listener (standalone mode) in a server to browser apex application from another server with oracle database 11g and oracle apex development.
My installation step as below;
1. I copy images folder from database server apex\images folder to apex listener installation folder before i install apex listener (called "apexlistener").
2. Run cmd "java -Dapex.home=c:\apexlistener -Dapex.images=c:\apexlistener\images -Dapex.port=8585 -Dapex.erase -jar c:\apexlistener\apex.war" to install apex listener.
Just a question, if i amended oracle apex application in database server, should i need to copy the images folder again to apex listener server?
What is the main source in images folder used in oracle apex listener server?
My experience is i tried to copy images folder from database server A with apex application (in runtime mode) to apexlistener folder server B. And i configure the database connection to server c with same oracle apex application as well. I tried to browser oracle apex application in server c from server B. I found out my apex application is not running properly due to the javascript is not installed properly. I would like to ask, is the images files in apex listener server must same with apex application server?
Anyone have idea on automatically start apex listener when the server reboots?
How to run apex listener in backend?
Hope can get some idea and solution from all the expertise!
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Apex Junior

>
The images folder has a relation with the Apex Version installed on the database, not with the applications in the Apex.
Depends on what you mean by amending applications. If you add custom CSS, JS ,etc to the application , and are not uploading the files to WORKSPACE_IMAGES, then you need to copy the external files to the images folder. But not copy it all over again.
If no custom files then no need to copy the images folder.

As stated earlier, the contents of the images (/i/) folder are related to the Apex Version. If your two db servers have different versions of Apex then the same images folder will not work with both. It will work with only one, the one that has the Apex Version compatible with the images folder.

How to suggest without knowing OS?
You can write a batch file that runs on bootup to achieve this.

How to print a BLOB (image) on a PDF report using Oracle APEX Listener as Print Server

Hi,
I use APEX 4.2.
I have the following query as SQL text for a Report Queries in Shared Components:
select
    customer_id,
    cust_first_name,
    cust_last_name,
    cust_street_address1,
    cust_street_address2,
    cust_city,
    cust_state,
    cust_postal_code,
    phone_number1,
    phone_number2,
    credit_limit,
    cust_email,
    filename,
    company_profile,
    -- customer_image,
    decode(nvl(dbms_lob.getlength(customer_image),0),0,null,
    '<img style="border: 4px solid #CCC; -moz-border-radius: 4px; -webkit-border-radius: 4px;" '||
    'src="' ||

    mimetype,
    image_last_update
from
    demo_customers;
I am unable to have the image printed on the PDF report. Even when the P22_CUSTOMER_IMAGE is defined as session state item.
Does someone knows how to print such image/BLOB in a PDF report?
Thanks by advance.
Kind Regards.

Hi,
Indeed, I would need a custom layout.
Unfortunately, it seems (according to this white paper) not possible with the APEX listener only. I would need a third pary tool. A pity...
For me strange, that I cannot generate such a report having images or pictures in a pre-definied report layout... Maybe a future enahancement for Oracle.
Kind Regards.

APEX listener - empty page ??

Hi,
I have installed tomcat / APEX listener on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 (with 11gR2 database)
The configuration seems to be done ... but the page: http://oel52server:8080/apex/apex give me an empty page ?
do you know what's wrong ?
Cyryl

Thanks for the answers.
I have a similar problem-- but I believe it may not be because of JDK ver. (becaue I already use ver. 6.0).
Although I am able to see the Apex login page. http://localhost:8888/apex/, but no images are displayed. Moreover it asks for Workspace, Username, Password which I am unaware of (it did not ask for any such information while installing apex). It looks like none of the buttons/links are active. Did I do anything wrong while installing apex?
This is how I installed Apex.
1. Downloaded and installed tomcat application server and Apex Listener as per the instructions given in the link:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_listener_install_web.html
(section B. Installing with Apache Tomcat in the installation )
2. The images are copied to the following location (as given in the instruction):
C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.24\webapps\ROOT\images
3. Started both oracle db server and tomcat app. server
4. Opened the page http://localhost:8888/apex/Config
at this point I get the login page with no images and inactive links/buttons.
Appreciate any help.
Thank you,
Pravy

Apex Listener return blank pages with no configuration errors!

- I set up an Apex Listener "Version:1.1.3.243.11.40" at "10.0.114.11" in standalone mode.
- I configured Apex Listener via http://10.0.114.11:8585/apex/listenerConfigure and return with no errors.
- I get http://10.0.114.11:8585/apex/listenerStatus, it returned this:

The page displays "Application Express Login" or "Application Express Administration Services" in the tab at the top of IE, but nothing else. Anyone have any ideas what could be happening here ?
thanks so much,

I don't know how to "could you please check if you configured the directory for the static contents ("images") correctly"
because the Installation Guide of Oracle about Install Apex in standalone mode do not tell me to configure images any more. I just run apex listener with above command "java -Dapex.home=/tmp/apex -Dapex.images=/tmp/apex/apex/images -Dapex.port=8585 -Dapex.erase -jar /source_install/apex_listener.1.1.3.243.11.40/apex.war".
Thank you for your reply,Udo!

APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

Hi
For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
Thanks
Brian

Hi Brian,
it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

Apex Listener Configuration Issue.

Hi there,
As I wanted to try the latest Restful services in apex 4.2, I decided to install Apex Listener 2.0. I downloaded the file and followed the steps as in the installation notes. As a pre-requisite, I configured the Restful services successfully in apex 4.2 along with Oracle 11g Express Edition. However, the installation of listener seems to be not compleated successfully with the following installation feed back.

Thank you Probodh for your quick help. I set the port 8080 to apex listener and it does not give that error now.
However, it still says "Default Database Connection not configured properly"
I gave the SID name as xe which is the default one, and that is the correct SID for my DB also.
Any possible mistakes in there?

Hi Kevin,
this looks like a common issue: You've probably not configured the static contents for APEX ("images") properly. Please make sure you've set the parameter to point to a path that contains the contents of the "images" directory of the APEX installation package that fits to the APEX version of the instance your APEX Listener is supposed to host.

APEX LISTENER Install troubleshooting

Hi, I need help.. :-)
Default Database connection not configured properly
What I have done:
     ALTER USER APEX_LISTENER ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
     ALTER USER APEX_PUBLIC_USER ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
     ALTER USER APEX_REST_PUBLIC_USER ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
     connect APEX_LISTENER/mypasswd1
     connect APEX_PUBLIC_USER/mypasswd2
     connect APEX_REST_PUBLIC_USER/mypasswd1
Check default.xml
password: replaced encrypted one with clear text one for APEX_PUBLIC_USER to ensure it is correct
even tried APEX_LISTENER password just incase
Is there a simple JDBC test to see if it connects? it is APEX_PUBLIC_USER who is connecting isn't it?

That could be a problem.
I was answering the question:
BillC wrote:

You can use SQLPLUS to make sure you have the correct password.
After that, it is the SERVER, PORT, SID/SERVICE in the APEX listener you need to confirm.
You can TNSPING to confirm you have the correct selections for those.
You can always re-run the java -jar apex.war setup command to all of the basic settings.
The reason I mention that is because if you modify the settings manually - we need to ask "which file?" because there is the default and the database specific one too.
Try making a request to the service in standalone mode and you should get a terminal output (the window stays open) with a more detailed error. I would guess there will be an ORA-12514, TNS listener does not currently know of service requested in descriptor or something similar that will give you the "debug" information you are looking for.

APEX Listener with APEX 3.0 on 11gR2

Yes, I am crazy.
We have many many APEX applications in APEX 3.0 running on a 10.2.0.4 database that needs desperately to be upgraded. As a test, I've set up a clean 11gR2 database and copied the production APEX database into it via datapump. I set up APEX Listener, as I don't have any OAS sitting around and the EPG doesn't seem to be supported for APEX 3.0... the Listener doesn't say one way or the other.
When trying to log in, I get the login page, but it tries to reference files such as apex_get_3_1.js while I only have files such as htmldb_get.js in my images directory in production. I noticed it is looking for what appears to be 3.1 files instead of 3.0 files... which concerns me.
The APEX listener appears to be more than just a Java PL/SQL gateway.
Is there a minimum version of APEX the APEX Listener supports?
Interested in pointers!
Rob

Hi Rob,
Yes, I am crazy.Why would that be? ;)
We have many many APEX applications in APEX 3.0 running on a 10.2.0.4 database that needs desperately to be upgraded. As a test, I've set up a clean 11gR2 database and copied the production APEX database into it via datapump. I set up APEX Listener, as I don't have any OAS sitting around and the EPG doesn't seem to be supported for APEX 3.0... the Listener doesn't say one way or the other.APEX 3.0 is supprted by EPG. See the [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B32472_01/doc/install.300/b32468/post_inst.htm#CHDBEJDA]APEX 3.0 Installation Guide for details.
APEX Listener is capable of hosting APEX 3.0 as well, though APEX 3.0 wasn't supported anymore when APEX Listener was initially released. The current APEX release at that time was 4.0, so this would be the first version to be known as really stable, whereas you won't get any support for older releases anymore. From personal experience I know that there are now issues with APEX 3.1 and APEX Listener, so it'll probably also work with 3.0.
Concerning your database release, the minimum for APEX Listener is 10.2.0.3, so you're definetly safe on that part, though I'd recommend to upgrade as regular support for 10.2 databases ended.
When trying to log in, I get the login page, but it tries to reference files such as apex_get_3_1.js while I only have files such as htmldb_get.js in my images directory in production. I noticed it is looking for what appears to be 3.1 files instead of 3.0 files... which concerns me.This indicates that your APEX would actually be a 3.1 and you should update you images directory.
The APEX listener appears to be more than just a Java PL/SQL gateway.It is, but this has nothing to do with your 3.1 JS files, if this is why you stated this.
Is there a minimum version of APEX the APEX Listener supports?As mentioned above, 4.0 would be a safe approach, but 3.1 will definetly work, 3.0 probably will as well. I'd recommend you find out which APEX version is actually installed on your database before you consider any upgrade operations. Run the following query as privileged user:
SELECT comp_name, version, status
FROM dba_registry
WHERE comp_id = 'APEX';-Udo

Urgent help needed for hysterical female!

I need urgent help in editing a pic that has been emailed to me, I do not know which Adobe programme to upload it too. Currently use Picasso - usually brilliant, but now gets jammed with a pop up box asking me to either accept or deny picnik. When I googled picnik, it now belongs to Google - don't know how to do a damn thing now!! Extremely Frustrated, can anybody suggest/help me

The only Adobe program I know that can edit images is Photoshop.
If you have troubles with Google software, you need to post in the appropriate Google forum.

URGENT HELP NEEDED - iPhone 3Gs no longer detected or charged by MacBook

My iPhone 3Gs (3.1) has been running fine, until several hours ago today, when I plugged it to my MacBook, the iPhone is no longer detected - it doesn't show up in iTunes, nor it is charged. I tried opening iPhoto, and it wasn't there too. Not with Image Capture too. I tried charging it using the out-of-box wall charger using the same out-of-box USB cable I use for MacBook, and it can be charged without any problem. Then I put it into Recovery mode, and there iTunes can see it. I don't want to restore it before I figure out exactly what went wrong, as I don't want the restore process somehow gets stuck in the middle that the connection is lost again.
I've tried reinstalled iTunes, including completely removal of Apple Mobile Device Support, as instructed by Apple. But still no luck.
I've tried switching to another USB port of my MacBook. No luck.
My iTunes is the latest 9.0.1, and my Mac OSX is 10.6.1. My iPhone is on 3.1, upgraded from 3.0.
I've read from web that it seems I'm not the only one out there having this problem. But none of them seem having any real working solution.
Urgent help needed & appreciated. Millions of thanks in advance.
Gary

1. I used both cables - theirs & mine ... and on several macs
2. yes, same cable for wall & mac
3. as said, i did completely remove & install itunes (incl. apple mobile device support), as instructed on the apple webpage
anyway, did a restore just now. it seems okay now. but the problem is i have no idea what cause this, and i can't replicate the problem. so i don't know when it will happen again ... maybe a bug with os 3.1 ... others on web said os 3.1 is quite buggy ...

APEX Listener with Free environment

Hi,
I was going through APEX Listener Installation guide and found that the supported installations are
*1) with WebLogic*
*2) Glassfish &*
*3) OC4J*
All of the above are associated with licensing cost. Is there any free installation scenario? As 11gXE is free to store upto 11GB of user data, I was thinking to install it with Glassfish for my small application which is not expected to have 11GB of user data over the next 4-5 years. Today I had a chat with one of the local Oracle Sales guy and I found that licensing cost is huge for Glassfish.
I don't know whether standalone APEX Listener will serve the purpose of having my application available over the internet. Please forgive me; I am a novice in the field of networking.
Could you please provide me the details of the free or low cost alternatives of the above scenarios? One option I know is to go for hosting services for low cost. But to me that is also huge.
Any kind of help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Mehabub

Supported in this context is supported by Oracle in that you can open an SR with support.oracle.com or not.
ApexListener runs on most J2EE Containers. Free ones include GlassFish Community Server and Tomcat. ApexListener runs on GF as well as Tomcat, but you cannot run to Oracle Support if you have an issue. You have to seek help here, on this forum, if you cannot resolve things yourself :(
Cheers,
