Easy URL Address for APEX Applications?

I have an APEX Application with a URL like:
http://www.domain.de/pls/htmldb/f?p=105
and it would be nice if the url would be like:
http://www.domain.de/topic
I have searched for Apache and Alias entries, but most of them are matching through directories and not for simple links.
Hope anyone could help.

both solutions seem to be not so easy to understand.
the blog solution produces errors and where do i have to put:
my $configfile = "/export/home/oracle/HTMLDB/htmldbvirtual.conf";
i testing on a windows system at the moment, later on unix
the other solution in the posting from Jes i tried it like that:
<VirtualHost *>
 ServerName localhost/test
 ServerAlias localhost/test
 ErrorLog /wwwlogs/error_log
 CustomLog /wwwlogs/custom_log combined
 ProxyPreserveHost On
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteRule ^/$ /pls/htmldb/f?p=101:1 [R]
 ProxyPass /pls/htmldb http://localhost:7777/pls/htmldb
 ProxyPassReverse /pls/htmldb http://localhost:7777/pls/htmldb
 ProxyPass /i http://localhost:7777/i
 ProxyPassReverse /i http://localhost:7777/i
 </VirtualHost>
but it dont works, what do i have to change?

Is there a way to prevent Robohelp WebHelp from appending characters to the end of the URL address for a TOC Entry?

I am running RoboHelp 10 on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64 bit OS.
WebHelp is appending characters to the end of the TOC entry's URL address. The characters "bc-n" where n is a number are being generated for all of the TOC Page Entries when I generate WebHelp output. We are exporting the HTML files for import into an application. The TOC Page Properties Link to: property does not contain the characters in RoboHelp.
We have standardized names defined for our application and the appended characters are not going to work in the application.
cid:[email protected]
When I use the generated html output in IE10 Version 10.0.9200.16635 Update Versions: 10.0.7 (KB2846071) the characters show up in the URL when I hover the mouse over the TOC entry as shown in the screenshot below.
cid:[email protected]
The two screenshots show that the Link to property does not have the characters "bc-7" but the URL address does.
Is there a setting or way to configure RoboHelp to prevent Robohelp WebHelp from generating and appending characters to the end of the URL address for TOC Entries?

I have never known Rh add any characters so I think something else is at play here. Please open one of the sample projects and see what happens there. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.

Configure Logical Address for Web Applications-Hyperion 11.1.2

Hello,
I have f5 load balancer infront of two foundation servers and I have not yet configured the Logical address for web applications with Loadbalancer DNS name/hostnmae. I can access all of web applications through Load Balanced URL. Do I Still need to configure Logical Web Address for web applications ?
Thank you so much !

To add to this part of the reason for load balancing is usually to support high availability (in addition to scalability). Without that logic address being setup you will find certain configuration items are pointed to one server or another and if that one server is brought down it impacts key functionality of the whole environment.
You should consider a test of the infrastructure by purposely bringing down services and/or servers to ensure you still have a fully working environment with the other redundant components. This test may take half a day to several days to really go through a full regression test of key features while taking key pieces down.

WD ABAP - Reading the URL Parameters for FPM application

Hi,
As per the Custom requirment,
I want to pass URL parameters for WD ABAP application (sap/bc/webdynpro/dbm/app_veh_cus_search) which uses FPM.
example: sap/bc/webdynpro/dbm/app_veh_cus_search?Customer=12345&fromExternal=true
I am facing difficulty in reading the URL parameters.
How to read/get the URL Parameters for an FPM WD ABAP application????
Observation:
I tried reading the parameter in Window --> HANDLEDEFAULT method. But could NOT read the Parameters from here for FPM application whereas if I create a Z Custom application then I could read the URL Parameters. so the issue is in reading the URL Parameters for FPM application.
Kindly support
Regards,
Hussain

Hi Hussain,
You can do this either with the methods of interface if_fpm_parameter...
DATA lo_param TYPE REF TO if_fpm_parameter.
lo_param = cl_fpm_factory=>get_instance( )->mo_app_parameter.
CALL METHOD lo_param->get_value
    EXPORTING
        iv_key   = parameter_name
    IMPORTING
        ev_value = parameter_value.
or a more generic approach using class cl_wd_runtime_services...
cl_wd_runtime_services=>get_url_parameter

How I can use my domain name for APEX Application at Oracle Cloud?

Hello,
1. I have for example my-custom-domain.com and want that my customers use this domain to login at APEX Application at Oracle Cloud.
I don't want that my customers see https://blablabla.db.us1.oraclecloudapps.com/apex/ and see instead of my-custom-domain.com :)
How I can do it? Don't find any technical information about it...
2. Can I use my ssl certificates for my domain for Oracle Cloud Instance?

may be I don't understand you right...
I have trial instance and test application here at https://database-trialajnn.db.us1.oraclecloudapps.com/apex/f?p=1500304
database-trialajnn.db.us1.oraclecloudapps.com - it's 216.131.136.193 IP
I write to my domain this IP = login.ds24.ru
But when I test https://login.ds24.ru/apex/f?p=1500304
It is not work and write that url is wrong for this ssl sertificate
If I understand you correct now it's impossible use simple URL to login at application for example login.ds24.ru

Using descriptive name for apex application

hi all.
hope every one is fine.
i intend to use a more descriptive name for my apex application like host:port/stat instead of http://localhost:8080/apex/f?p=4500:1001:732434041939432::NO:::
i created procedure stat for public access as follows
+code start {+
create or replace procedure stat
as
start_page varchar2(200) := ':APP_ID:101';
begin
f(p=>start_page);
END;
+} code end+
but when i goto the URL host:port/stat, dialogue box pops up as follows:-
the site says xdb
username
password
how to resolve this. immediate help is requested.

Instead of using the app_id in the url, you can use the application alias..: https://istudy.ses.pdx.edu/i/doc/bldr_attr_standard.htm

Installer for apex applications

db11gxe , apex4.0 , firefox 24 ,
hi all ,
i have finished my app , and i want to install it on the customer's pc ,
there is a program called actual installer to install my app , but it only works for windows apps ,
what is the alternative for apex apps
what program can i use to install my apex app on the customer's pc ?
thanks in advance

what happens if something happens to the server ,
If that's your concern, then perhaps you need to purchase a piece of cloud.oracle.com
i want the user to do this himself
Despite what the OracleXE install wizard is like, deploying a production application is a little more involved - hence my comment regarding professional help
You can script the release of an apex application
APEX_APPLICATION_INSTALL
I can't emphasise enough - the Oracle database is a little bit more involved than just downloading & running something like Textpad.

Keyboard shortcuts for APEX applications

Hi,
I want to add shortcut keys to my APEX application. I have already allowed users to show report, save and delete data using F-keys – I made it with javascript and doSubmit(request) function, invoking pl/sql procedure on F-key press.
Unforutnatelly I don’t know how to invoke something else than pl/sql procedure or request. In my application I have several buttons, most of them are connected to procedures but one, that should have shortcut, invokes JS function. The problem is that I want to have one shortcut function for whole application and put it into library. So that procedures on each page has the same request, and it works very well, but I can’t simulate this way clicking on button with JS. JS invoking by this button is different for each page so I can’t just replace doSubmit() with it.
Do you know any way to simulate clicking on the button or create shortcut for it? Button is displayed as <A> HREF with <IMG>.

Przemek

Time and motion studies in terms of Gilbreth‘s therbligs do not favor your approach. The keyboard lies in the heart of the area of minimall motion requirements. The mouse requires more movement to accomplish the same task. It’s all in what’s comfortable with the user, regardless of efficiency, or what the user’s bent may be for finding other ways. Antagonistic responses are oxymoronic in terms of the definition of “help”: verb sap.

Oracle DB licensing for APEX applications

Scenario:
Currently we use Oracle EE 10g with an intranet application system(using oracle technology stack) and let's say the # of named users are' X'. We are considering using APEX for a customer faced application so that customers can view their information online. The # of customers that use the APEX based application would be 5000.We are planning to go for custom authentication where by customers register themselves and use e-mail id as their userid.
Questions:
1. I was told that we could create a generic user for our customer(s) so that they could all log into the database
as one named user so that the # of named users are X+1. Hence it just requires an additional named user license. If so, how that generic user works?
2. With one application user with multiple connections, how does the licensing model differs to the one that we currently have?
3. Using APEX, if an application(public user) is deployed in production and public(unlimited # of users) access the application, how does the licensing for Oracle database affects. Do we need to go by processor based licensing? Is so, it is very expensive and could be cost prohibitive. Is there any cost effective solution?
I have gone through the following thread Re: How is an Apex solution priced if one is using standard 11g? However, I am looking for a specific answers my questions above.
Thanks in advance.

John is correct. Named user has NOTHING to do with database users / schemas. Just because your whole app runs as one schema does not mean you only need one named user. Named users are people, no matter how they connect. As John stated, if you have an additional 5,000 users, you'll need to up your named-user licensing by 5,000. However, per-CPU licensing is probably much more cost-effective with those numbers.
As for more cost-effective options, there are several. It might be much cheaper to use a cheaper version of the database on a different machine. You could take a look at Standard Edition (SE), Standard Edition One, or even XE (free). It all depends on what features you need.
Since you are going from Intranet to Internet, make sure you consider the security implications carefully. At the very least I would make sure the HTTP Server is NOT on the same machine as the Database. I would put the HTTP Server in your DMZ and your Database either fully inside your intranet or at least a behind a second firewall. You should probably review "Project Lockdown" for more details:

Load balancing URL setup for planning application 11.1.2.1

Hi Gurus,
There is an existing planning environment with Weblogic/ Oracle HTTP load balancing setup. I just would like to know where would exactly be the generic/ common URL (the URL without actual servername) configured for planning and SmartView?
Is there any properties file (weblogic/ HTTP) where we will mention those details?
Thanks,
Siva

I am not sure I get what you are asking but planning can be accessed through workspace or by
http://<ohs_server>:19000/HyperionPlanning
and Smart View http://<ohs_server>:19000/workspace/SmartViewProviders
If you want to understand about the configuration you can run a registry report.
Cheers

How to design tables for Apex applications?

Hi,
I am learning Apex . I have one question.
Considering normal tables, I have primary key (some single column and some composite) for my tables.
But I learnt that Apex works well when we have primary keys using sequences.
So Should I do the following now.
1) Add a new column to all my tables which gets populated from Apex directly and make that column as primary key
2) Create a sequence to associate each such primary key
3) Make the actual primary keys as Unique keys + Not null constraints
Thank You

Why are you designing your tables o suit the tool? What happenes when you change development products? You SHOULD develop based upon SOUND database design methods. Use of surrogate keys IS a prefered development method, since use of multi-key (Composite) keys is known to be a pain for multiple reasons..
Take this small bit of knowledge.. Design you database properly for an interface and you will NOT have issues..
Thank you,
