Exposing analyticsRes folder via Oracle HTTP server

Hi,
Custom styles, skins and messages are stored in a directory that can be accessed by the BI Presentation Services (analyticsRes dir).
The recommended approach is to use an HTTP server like Oracle HTTP Server to expose the directory to Oracle BIEE.
Any good documentation out there which explains the process to set this up for an Oracle HTTP server?
Only seen docs covering the setup for Weblogic.
Thanks & Regards

How to get rid of /j2ee prefix from URL when I use the OC4J via Oracle HTTP server

In 9iAS 9.0.2 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) is pre-configured to assign requests to the Home OC4J instance via the URL-prefix "/j2ee"/
For example, the TEST servlet under OC4J would be passed through OHS using:
http://urmachine:urApachePort/j2ee/TEST
whereas in the standlone OC4J version, this URL works:
http://urmachine:urOC4JPort/TEST

Can you run Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and Oracle HTTP Server at the same time

Hi,
I know this will sound a bit odd but their is a business case for asking this. Can you run APEX via the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and the Oracle HTTP Server at the same time? Would their be any security/stability/etc issues I'd need to worry about? I know that I'll need to run them on different ports.
Thank you,
Martin Giffy D'Souza
[http://apex-smb.blogspot.com/]

I think I've done this in the past. Theres no technical reason why you can't do this as far as I know.
I can't remember if I used different ports or same port.

Web Service and Oracle HTTP Server

I have a web environment with Oracle Database 10.2.0.3 , oracle http server (using mod_plsql), Oracle pl/sql web toolkit. I need to create a web service that is accessed externally which will interact with the database (select, insert, delete). Is it possible to publish a web service to the Oracle Http Server or to implement web services with the environment above

Hello,
In RDBMS 10g you cannot directly expose WS from the DB you need to use the OracleAS Web Service Runtime to do it, following this documentation:
- Developing Web Services that Expose Database Resources
This is true if we are talking about "tooling/runtime/API" but after all Web Services are mainly XML (WSDL and SOAP) so it is still possible to create by hands (PL/SQL & static files) but it is probably a long work depending of the complexity of your services.
Also, in RDBMS 11, you can now directly expose WS from the DB using the embedded HTTP server, see this Oracle 11g New Features Document
Note that before taking one approach you must take time to write up your requirement regarding Web Services eg: do I need security, which time of encoding, interoperability, ..., ... For example WS-Security that is the standard to secure SOAP messages is not (yet) supported by the Oracle 11g RDBMS Native Web Services... where when you do use the WS-Runtime you can secure the Web Service..

Oracle HTTP Server + PHP

Does anyone know how to enable PHP support on Oracle HTTP Server (from Oracle DB Companion CD)? I tried to compile PHP on it, bet I get the following error:
Configuring SAPI modules
checking for AOLserver support... no
checking for Apache 1.x module support via DSO through APXS...
Sorry, I was not able to successfully run APXS. Possible reasons:
1. Perl is not installed;
2. Apache was not compiled with DSO support (--enable-module=so);
3. 'apxs' is not in your path. Try to use --with-apxs=/path/to/apxs
The output of /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/cp_1/Apache/Apache/bin/apxs follows
ld.so.1: /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/cp_1/Apache/Apache/bin/httpd: fatal: libdms2.so: open failed: No such file
or directory
apxs:Error: Sorry, no DSO support for Apache available
apxs:Error: under your platform. Make sure the Apache
apxs:Error: module mod_so is compiled into your server
apxs:Error: binary `/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/cp_1/Apache/Apache/bin/httpd'.
configure: error: Aborting
Oracle HTTP server does not have DSO support, is there some possibility to enable it? Or there exists another way to enable PHP support on Oracle HTTP server.

Could you paste the full command line you used to run the configure script? My initial guess is that you didn't specify the full path to Apache's apxs (usually located somewhere around "$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/apxs"). Among other things, try making sure you've specified "--with-apxs=$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/apxs" on the command line.
If you don't know where apxs might be, you can also usually try finding apxs with "find / -name apxs > find.out". If you have "find" on your flavor of *n?x, this will output all files exactly matching the name "apxs" to a file named "find.out" in your current directory. You can usually view the file by running "cat find.out" on the command line. Look for lines in the file with "Apache" on them and/or your Oracle install directory (or $ORACLE_HOME).

Loading the third party modules in oracle http server

Hi ,
I installed a software and after installing it we will get one so file (ds-wac-apache2.2.so). I want to load that module (ds-wac-apache2.2.so file name) in oracle http server.
I used the LoadModule directive but it doesnt work.
Can anyone help me regarding these?

Hi,
My third party software was installed in the below folder,
/home/oracle/Symphony/WAM/WebEnforcementAgent/
and i tried to load the module by using the command LoadModule in httpd.conf which is located in the $ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/OHS/ohs
LoadModule ds_wac_module "/home/oracle/Symphony/WAM/WebEnforcementAgent/ds-wac-apache2.2.so"

Installing Oracle HTTP Server WITHOUT Universal Installer?

On my computer (Win XP, DB 10.1.0.4) the Universal Installer that comes with the Companion CD still fails at startup. So I installed HTML DB from the htmldb_2.0.zip file.
But what about the HTTP Server? How can install it without using the OUI?
The response file from the Companion CD offers only these two choices:
- Oracle HTML DB and Oracle HTTP Server
- Oracle HTML DB only
I have to admit that I don't really fancy the idea of installing HTML DB again via response file...
Any ideas?

Sabine,
Do you use an intel pentium 4?Yes. Do you think that bug is still around?No, I was confusing it because just recently I installed 8.1.7 on my XP machine and ran into that bug. It shouldn't affect a 10.x install.
What is the error message you get? Or does it just
crash?The windows error message "The oui.exe found a
problem and need to be closed." ("oui.exe hat ein
Problem festgestellt und muss beendet werden") Tough. Not much information.
Do you have anything special set up on your machine, firewall, cluster, etc.? How much RAM?
Sometimes the setup.exe didn't work for me. There is another oui.exe in the "install" subdirectory. Please try this one.
If you don't get any further I would suggest to open an iTar with Oracle Support.
If you had more specific error messages perhaps we can find something.
Please look in c:\programme\oracle\inventory\logs whether you can find more information.

Error installing 11.1.2 on redhat 5 --Oracle HTTP server -- -failed

when i am installing 11.1.2 on RHEL 5 ,i see that Oracle HTTP server installtion failed.
I am not understanding what could be the reaosn .?
Else is there a way to avaoid the Oracle HTTP server and go for apche HTTP server.
Help needed

Installing Oracle HTTP Server manually may be an option here.
It seems straight-forward enough. You can run the Oracle HTTP Server installer in GUI mode, outside EPM System Installer, using setup.exe (Windows) or runInstaller from EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/ohs2_tmp_stage/Disk1. Specify MIDDLEWARE_HOME/ohs as the target installation folder, and accept the defaults for all other settings.
Good Luck...!!!!

Install Oracle HTTP Server to Oracle Database XE

Successfully managed to install Oracle Database XE to Windows 2000 (after temporarily dropping TNSNAMES and TNS_ADMIN variables). I want to learn how to use Application Express (formerly HTML DB) and it would be a pain/take ages to get the enterprise DBA's to install it onto a supported networked instance. I have installed HTML DB into Oracle XE but the post installation instructions require that Oracle HTTP Server is installed. How do you get Oracle HTTP Server installed into Oracle XE? Oracle Universal Installer does not recognise Oracle XE as an Oracle Home. How do you use Oracle Universal Installer on Oracle XE? or how do you download Oracle HTTP Server with InstallShield? Seems strange that Oracle XE does not integrate with other toolset installations.
Thanks

ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = FLOWS_020000;
exec FLOWS_020000.wwv_flow_upgrade.switch_schemas ('FLOWS_020000','FLOWS_020100');commit;I would give it a try, it's hard to make it worse ;).
Oracle XE / Apex is almost the same.
Some of the differences are:
- SSO authentication is not supported out of the box (although there are workarounds)
- You can assign only a single database schema to a workspace
- There are no developer accounts in the workspaces
Basically, both version are pretty much the same. You can export / import applications both ways.
I cannot see what you mean by missing templates. They are all there (although not in the filesystem but stored in the database via XMLDB).
You can reach the documentation from the homepage of XE and also from Start > Programs > Oracle Express Edition

Cannot start Oracle HTTP Server

Edited by: user8631539 on 28.08.2009 04:14

I have a workaround - If you are not planning to use mod_wl_ohs then don't load this module.
You can stop it loading by commenting below line from httpd.conf
include "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/${COMPONENT_NAME}/mod_wl_ohs.conf"
1. Go to
C:\\oracle\\product\\11.1.1\\as_1\\instances\\instance1\\config\\OHS\\ohs1/httpd.conf
2. change
# Include the configuration files needed for mod_weblogic
include "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/${COMPONENT_NAME}/mod_wl_ohs.conf"
to
# Include the configuration files needed for mod_weblogic
# include "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/${COMPONENT_NAME}/mod_wl_ohs.conf"
3. Restart HTTP Server
4. $ORACLE_BASE/admin/<instance_name>/bin/opmnctl restartproc ias-component=ohs1

Administration of Oracle HTTP Server in Application Server 10.1.3.1

Hi
Can anyone tell me how to administer the Oracle HTTP Server from the Application Server Control not directly from the configuration files in Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1.
I have followed the instructions given but the link for the HTTP Server is not activated and can't be clicked in the System Components table in Oracle Application Server Control page.
In the instructions given by the Oracle HTTP Server Admin guide was mentioned an user : ias_admin. But I haven't found it. All the users listed are oc4jadmin and something like JRAadmin.
Can anyone tell me how to proceed to make possible HTTP Server Administration, Configuration and Mainteinance directly from the Application Server Control in Enterprise Manager.
Best regards
Drini

Hi
First of all, I am using the application server right now. I have deployed there a Java Web Service.
In the directory that you specified it wasn't something like setupinfo.tx but readme.txt the contents of which I am pasting below
////////Readme.txt////////////////
The installation of Oracle Application Server 10g 10.1.3.1.0 was successful.
These instructions are located in D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\install\readme.txt for your future reference.
You can view the status of the server with the following command:
D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\opmn\bin\opmnctl status
Access the Welcome Page with the following URL:
http://server:8888/
Access the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control via the following URL:
http://server:8888/em
Installation Details:
Installation Directory: D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1
Installation Type: J2EE Server and Web Server
Installed Components: Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle Containers for J2EE (OC4J), and Oracle Process Manager & Notification Server (OPMN)

Administrator Username: oc4jadmin
The log file containing the details of Configuration Asistants is located in D:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\cfgtoollogs
\\\\ End of Readme.txt \\\\\\\\\\\
i have tried before the opmnctl status command and it says that the HTTP_Server and the OC4JGroup are alive. Only ASG is down. This is by default in all iAS installations I have done.
