Discoverer Plus associate with the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure

Hi Everyone,
I just install the Oracle BI (v 10.1.2.0.2) into my 2003 server so I could use the Discoverer Plus and Viewer. This is a stand alone BI installation (I guess, I have little knowledge about Discoverer plus or Oracle AS).
My question is how could I connect the Discoverer plus to my ODS database, so I could create report or view report.
and where to find the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure (or How do I know I have the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure?)
I read the Oracle BI Discoverer Configuration Guide, and it tell me to associate the Oracle BI with the Oracle Application Server Infrastructure to deploy the Discoverer. so I went to the BI Application Server Control page, the Infrastructure section, the Identity Management to configure the Internet Directory, so I could I have the public connection, but it didn't work.
Also do I real need the Oracle AS Infrastructure to make the Discoverer Plus work?
Thanks in advance

Hi Kevin,
Oracle AS Infrastructure is needed only if you are implementing SSO for Discoverer or using Public connection .
Else only Oracle AS Middle tier is sufficient to work with Discoverer Plus .
Regarding "how could I connect the Discoverer plus to my ODS database, so I could create report or view report"
You need to create the End User Layer (EUL) and then grant privilege to the EUL to users who will be creating the report .
Thanks,
Sutirtha

  • Direct calls within the oracle application server to the IIS using reverse

    trying to direct calls within the oracle application server to the IIS using reverse proxy. I am having problems...
    What is trying to be achieved is a call to the 3rd party web server (IIS with Oracle SSO plug-in) that will be invoked from the OAS.
    Any suggestions

    First you might get more response if you move your question to following forum:
    Oracle Application Server - General
    Second, I didn't quite understand your question. Can you pl. clarify it bit more? What exactly do you mean by invoking IIS from OAS (I am assuming by OAS you mean OC4J here)?
    Thanks

  • How Standalone OC4J and the Oracle Application Server linked to each other

    Hi ,
    Please let me know what is the relation between a Standalone OC4J and the Oracle Application Server ?
    In my application The Oracle Application Server is installed in C drive and there is a Stand alone oC4j .
    Please tell me how they are linked to each other .
    Thank you .

    It depends on your need and what features and functionality of Oracle Application Server you are interested in. Note that OC4J is a component of Oracle Application Server that can run as a standalone component or within Oracle Application Server. Question #6 in earlier mentioned FAQ document states:
    OC4J standalone is J2EE 1.3 compatible (1.4 and 1.5 too in later releases of OC4J) and is able to be used in both development and small scale production environments. OC4J standalone provides its own inbuilt HTTP/S listener to allow clients to execute Web applications that it has deployed. Application deployment and server configuration of OC4J standalone is performed by the manual editing of a simple set of XML files.
    For large scale enterprise deployments, the Oracle Application Server product is likely to be more suitable with its comprehensive feature set including Oracle HTTP Server, process monitoring and management capabilities, and its configuration and management console.
    So if you are happy with what you see in standalone OC4J and scalability isn't an issue for you, you can stay with standalone OC4J and don't need to move to Oracle Application Server.
    PS: If you do decide to use OC4J that's embedded with Oracle Application Server, you can't move your standalone OC4J inside Oracle Application Server. You will have to reconfigure embedded OC4J again (as you might have done with standalone OC4J) and redeploy your applications.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Can apex work without the oracle applications server? How?

    My question is just what the title says.
    Can apex work without the Oracle applications server?
    I've heard it needs a web server to work but not necessarly the oracle applications server.
    Is it true?
    With ONLY apache installed can apex work on top of it?

    Hello,
    Take a look at the Installation Guide which covers all the different options you have (as there are a few variations) -
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/install.32/e13366/toc.htm
    but yes, in short you can have a configuration where there is no external webserver which uses the embedded PL/SQL gateway.
    Hope this helps,

  • Oracle Application Server Infrastructure  & Middle Tiers?

    Hi,
    Can someone explain in simple words what is meant by Oracle Application Server Infrastructure and Oracle Application Server Middle Tiers and what the difference is between them?
    Thanks!

    That's right.
    mainly there are two major groups of components in infrastructure:
    - identity management (including Single-Sign-On, Oracle Internet Directory, Oracle Certificate Authority, some security schemas, etc), and
    - metadata repository (which houses data even portal in the default installation if you have one)
    middle-tiers run the applications. if you have java or OC4J applications, you will run them from mid-tier; or forms and reports or Business Intelligence, or portals & wireless, all would run from a midtier. but all will use infrastructure for a security, access (SSO), directory services, etc. you can have multiple midtiers connected to the same infrastructure too.

  • Where is the Oracle Application Server for Apex 3.2.1?

    Hi, I feel ashamed asking this, but I want to know where to download the Application Server for Apex 3.2.1. Apex is installed in a DataBase 10gR1 and the O.S. where I will install the Application Server is RedHat
    I think it is here
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/index.html
    But there is a lot of links and things to download and I don't even know if it will work because it is Release 3 and the DataBase is Release 1, but I tried downloading the "Oracle 10gR3 Companion (10.1.3.x) CD", but after running the installer in the disk1, I found that the Oracle HTTP Server that it would install does not include mod_plsql and I know I need it.
    So, which one should I download, or where can I find it?
    Thanks.

    Strictly speaking you do not need Application Server or OHS for running Apex, you have an option in ApexListener. If it is a small installation then stick to EPG that comes built-in.
    Try downloading the Oracle HTTP Server from here . You will need to check the commercial aspects yourself as OHS is not a free software for Production environment, AFAIK.

  • Is Netscape Enterprise Server 3.5.1 compatible with the SunOne Application Server 7.0 ?

    Hi,
    I beleive that there is no concept seperate webserver getting configured with App server. Appserver 7.0 comes with a builtin webservices as like weblogic and wesphere.

  • Oracle application server infrastructure causing problems

    I found out that in order to install OracleAS Business Intelligence and Forms, I first need to install OracleAS Infrastructure. Now I have one machine for all these tests (Windows). I have already installed the database (10g 2) and the installation went wonderfully. When I try to install OAS Infrastructure, apparently it tries to install a whole new database!
    How can I get OASI it to use the existing database? (first inkling of this problem was when i was warned of a port coflict at port 1521).
    By the way, the OAS installation guide is around 300 pages, I have been asked to do a quick installation to see if we will use oracle for DB AND BI...so sorry if this solution is common knowledge. Thanks!

    A couple of points here:
    1. If all you need is Discoverer, and do not particularly care about having public connections / Discoverer portlets, etc... then you do not need to install the BI & Forms option of the app server. You should download and install Oracle Business Intelligence from the App Server download page. This will allow you to install Discoverer in a 'standalone' mode, where it will not be associated with any infrastructure database. This Discoverer installation can then be used against any certified Oracle database (9.2 or 10.1) for both relational and OLAP reporting.
    2. The infrastructure components - Identity Management (IM) and Metadata Repository (MR) - require an Oracle database, which is what you encountered when installing the BI&Forms install type. This infrastructure database is specially configured to hold an app server infrastructure metadata and comes with pre-seeded schemas. It is also licensed differently from a regular Oracle database that you would have purchased a license for. Therefore, you cannot make an existing databae to hold the infrastructure repository.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks
