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

    Hi,
    You can use: startManagedWebLogic.sh, it is in your domain directory and you have to execute it in this way
    ./startManagedWebLogic.sh managedServerName http://adminServerHost:adminServerPort
    For instance, in my case I use:
    unixserv01:/webportal/domains/appServerWeb/bin>startManagedWebLogic.sh managedServ01 http://pelma3w3per01.mesaperu.next:7001
    You have to run it on the machine where the managed server was installed.

  • 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,

  • 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,

  • 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)?

  • Deleting the  Shared library in oc4j instance of Oracle Application Server

    Hi Friends,
    I am using Oracle Application Server (10.1.3.4.0). I have some system level shared libraries. When i am deploying the application in home instance the application is deploying fine, but when i create an another instance using the default group i am getting two more system level shared libraries that are not present in the home instance. Because of this two shared libraries i am not able to deploy the application.
    Is there a way to delete the system level shared libraries. If so provide the related information. If there is any other alternative solution provide me that also. This is very urgent to me. Please help me in resolving this issue.
    Thank You,
    Ravi kumar.

    Hi Shail,
    i referred the link you have sent it was helpful to me, but the thing is while deleting the shared library apache.webservices it is saying the shared library is in use. When we brought down the Application Server and try to run the removeSharedLibrary command we got other error.
    Error: "Failed at "Could not get DeploymentManager".
    This is typically the result of an invalid deployer URI format being supplied, the target server not being in a started state or incorrect authentication details being supplied.
    Is the way which i have done is correct ?? Please reply me.
    Thank You,
    Ravi kumar.

  • How to find characterSet of Oracle Application Server

    How can I find out the character set that was installed when Oracle Application Server was installed?

    - Refer to the OAS Globalization Support Document.
    Oracle® Application Server Globalization Support Guide
    10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
    B14004-02
    - Read with care these sections:
    6.1 Installing Oracle Application Server for Global Deployment
    - Also note that
    "The NLS_LANG parameter controls the locale of the runtime environment on which OPMN runs. It should correspond to the default locale of the middle-tier runtime environment, which is the default locale of the operating system. The same NLS_LANG parameter is inherited by the OPMN managed processes, such as Oracle HTTP Server and OC4J, unless it is explicitly specified with a different value in opmn.xml.
    For Microsoft Windows platforms, the pre-configured NLS_LANG is automatically registered in the Win32 registry as the NLS_LANG registry key at \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\HOMEn. The NLS_LANG value in this registry key controls the locale of the runtime environment on which OPMN and its managed processes run. "
    - Also note that the NLS_LANG parameter values will have different requirements for a monolingual and multilingual application architectures.
    - to find the character set of infrastructure db or metadata repository, you may use the db method to find the character set installed.
    SELECT * FROM nls_database_parameters WHERE parameter = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET'
    hope that helps!

    I'm going to guess and say that you are using Developer Suite based on your reference to port 8889. Assuming this is true, did you start OC4J? If so, a DOS window will open - do NOT close this window as it will terminate OC4J.
    Also, what happens if you open a browser and enter the Forms URL directly?

  • How to Setup SSL on Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1..2)

    Hi All,
    Can anybody tell me How to setup the SSL on Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2).
    I have all the required documents like
    1. Oracle Application Server Portal Server Configuration Guide.
    2. Oracle Application Server Web Cache Configuration Guide.
    3. Oracle Application Server SSO Administration Guide.
    I tried to follow all this documents but still i am not able to set SSL for Oracle Portal Server.

    The Portal Configuration Guide, available on OTN at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/appserver1012.html does provide some very specific information on how to set up OracleAS Portal.
    Section 6.3.2.1 Configuring SSL for OracleAS Portal describes various configurations, such as:
    SSL to OracleAS Single Sign-On
    SSL to OracleAS Web Cache
    SSL Throughout OracleAS Portal
    External SSL with Non-SSL Within Oracle Application Server
    For larger enterprise configurations, you can refer to the Enterprise Deployment Guide.
    Can you give a bit more background on what you are trying to set up? Which scenario, what sort of hardware, software versions, and so on.

  • 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.
