Integrating Apache with Oracle9iAS - How to?

Hi all,
I need to integrate Apache Web Server and Oracle9iAS, both running on different hosts. I'm aware that Oracle9iAS has built-in HTTP server based on proven apache server, but my client requires APache Web Server to be installed on separate host as a separate product and Oracle9IAS on seperate host and all HHTP requests should be redirected from Apache Web Server to Oracle9IAS.
Can any one guide me in achieving this integration?
Thanks in advance,
Aman

Thx for the reply!
The client is adament on using Apache web server with 9iAS since they already have apache web server running and now when they intend to shift to 9iAS, they dont want to modify their existing configuration but want the requests to be redirected through Apache.
Is it possible to configure 9iAS component - HTTP server on different host other than where app server is? or is there any plugin for Apache and 9iAS to interact?
How do I acheive this interaction when both are on 2 different hosts?
thx,
aman

Integrating Apache with Tomcat?

Anyone have a guide to integrating Apache with Tomcat using mod_jk?
I followed some guides online, but they all seem really dated with some obscure references. This seems like it should be on the top of the list....

Hi Alan.
I've discovered the exact same problem.... 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1

Integrating Clickstream with Oracle9iAS Release 2.0

Hi,
I am new to Oracle9iAS and need some help implementing Clickstream Intelligence with Oracle9iAS Release 2 (9.0.2.0.1). Can anyone tell me what all components do i need to install and where can i find more information about the same. Also does it work well with Oracle9iAS R2?
Thanks.

There could be numerous reasons. The best thing you could do is file a iTAR

Apache with Tomcat cluster

Hi, I integrated Apache with Tomcat Cluster on Windows 2000. I instalated mod_jk2.dll, created workers2.properties and configurated server.xml in Tomcat instances. If I try to reach my .jsp file, e.g. http://localhost/root/main.jsp, I get follow message from Tomcat: source root/main.jsp is not available. What�s wrong? Can anybody help me? Apache version: 2.0.47, Tomcat: 1.4.27

Well, the first order of business is to determine exactly where main.jsp is located. If it is at <CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/main.jsp, then it should be at http://localhost:8080/main.jsp. Bypass Apache and verify that you can get to the Tomcat specific pages first.
Basically, we're trying to determine a) the correct URL and b) whether the problem is with Tomcat itself, or with the connections between Apache and Tomcat.
Essentially, we can't tell you where your configuration is incorrect until you tell us what your configuration is. :)

Integrating Tomcat with Apache

Hi there,
I'm really stuck here. I'm trying to integrate Apache with Tomcate. Not having much luck. I have a number of things that aren't quite right. For whatever reason the connector (mod_jk2) between Apache and Tomcat isn't doing its thing. First things first however. I'm not so sure about the log from Tomcat:

How to start Integration server with the user XISUPER

Hi,
How to start Integration server with the user XISUPER?
Regards,

Mahesh,
In the post installation document, under Creating User XISUPER,
I see the following,
1.You must now log on to the Integration server host with the user XISUPER, to switch the initial password to a valid password.
2.You must restart the J2EE engine to transfer the user creation to the J2EE immediately.
I am unable to proceed here.Can you please help me to resume the post installation steps ?

Integrating Web server (eg Apache) with the application server

I am thinking a project in which I use more static HTML files than JSPs. One way is to use an Apache server to display those HTML files (it should be faster), and deploy the JSPs into the J2EE server; another way is just simple to change the web container�s port to 80 (of the PE 8), and wrap all the files into a war file and deploy it into the application server.
So can someone advise my which way is better? And if I use the first one, I�d like to know if it is the same way to integrate Apache with Tomcat.
Thank you very much!

In the past there has been a belief that the Apache web server serves static content faster than tomcat. Site managers would configure apache to deliver static content and integrate a web container to handle the dynamic content. I believe this argument is losing steam as tomcat gets better. I guess the only way you will know for sure is to deploy your application in PE 8.0 and then in an apache/web container configuration and do some benchmarking. I have no such benchmark data to compare and I base my comments on what I have read in newsgroups over the past months. Personally, I would opt for the app server only setup just to ease configuration. Others may have a different opinion.

UNSUPPORTED : The way it works Apache with OC4J via AJPV13 with mod_jk

RDBMS Version: 8.1.7.x
Operating System and Version: SUSE Linux 7.2 / Win NT/2k/XP
Product (i.e., OAS, IAS, etc): 9ias 1.0.2.2 OC4J 9.0.2.0.0
Product Version:
JDK Version: 1.3.1
Error number:
UNSUPPORTED : The way it works Apache with OC4J via AJPV13 with mod_jk
We dont want to use the lame and old mod_jserv so we want to use oc4j but in connection with Apache.
This is like mod_oc4j in the Oracle 9ias Release 2
This guide is for advanced users !
Step-by-Step :
1) get Tomcat 3.3 for linux or nt with Apache module mod_jk
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat/release/v3.3/bin/
2) add mod_jk module to httpd.conf (9ias) and comment all mod_jserv, dms, oproc, ojsp ....
LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so
Include mod_jk.conf
3) edit mod_jk.conf
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /servlet/* ajp13 JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
<Location "/WEB-INF/"> AllowOverride None
deny from all
</Location>
3) edit workers.properties
workers.tomcat_home=/opt/oracle/ias/oc4j/j2ee/home
workers.java_home=/usr/java
worker.list=ajp13
worker.ajp13.port=8009 worker.ajp13.host=localhost worker.ajp13.type=ajp13
4) edit http-web-site.xml (oc4j)
<web-site host="localhost" port="8009" protocol="ajp13" display-name="Oracle9iAS Containers for J2EE HTTP Web Site">
5) start oc4j
java -verbose -jar oc4j.jar
6) start apache (look in error_log)
apachectl startssl
7) try to request a jsp page or servlet ..
http://localhost:7777/test.jsp
8) good luck it works fine .. !!

Thanks for the tip Mathias, it's always good to see people trying out experimental things with the products.
We're providing a new module (mod_oc4j) with our Oracle9iAS Release2 product to do this directly from the Oracle HTTP Server (Apache). We've re-written bits and pieces of the module to improve it's performance. Likewise, we've also integrated mod_oc4j with our HA story so it will be notified when new OC4J instances are brought online or if existing ones go down, enabling it to actively route requests around the available OC4J instances.
Thanks again!

Integrating Apex with Cocoon (does it make pdf from taking data from DB)

Friends,
I integrated Apex with appache with cocoon. Its working fine with reports but i want it to work with form on a table or view.The steps below which i have followed for integrating Apex with Cocoon
Steps of pdf Printing of Report with cocoon:
1) Download and unzip the following needed files in D:\Apex_fop directory.
2) Open your command prompt .
Change the directory to D:\Apex_fop\cocoon-2.1.11.
Set the Java_Home environment variable as: set JAVA_HOME= C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_21
then type build war
3) After getting the prompt back as D:>Apex_fop>cocoon-2.1.11>
Copy coocon.war file from the folder D:\Apex_fop\cocoon-2.1.11\build\cocoon.
Paste this file into webapps subdirectory in main tomcat directory having path as D:\APEX_FOP\apache-tomcat-6.0.26\webapps.....place it in the top
level of webapps directory.
4) Now just startup tomcat as D:>APEX_FOP>apache-tomcat-6.0.26>bin>startup.bat
The cocoon.war file will automatically uncompressed as directory.
5) To change the port of apache tomcat , edit apache-tomcat-6.0.26\conf\server.xml & change port attribute of Connector element from 8080 to 8181.
Just check whether Tomcat is running or not as http://localhost:8181/
& to check cocoon type http://localhost:8181/cocoon/
6) Now copy fop_post directory & paste it undes new cocoon directory in webapps having path as D:\APEX_FOP\apache-tomcat-6.0.26\webapps
\cocoon.
7) Now you need to do some apex settings as follows:
In APEX, just log in as ADMIN into apex/apex_admin and went to Instance Settings and did the following:
- Print Serverr: Standard Support
- Print Server Protocol: HTTP
- Print Server Host Address:localhost
- Print Server Port: 8181
- Print Server Script: /cocoon/fop_post
In your APEX application, in the Regions section, Click on the Print link next to your report and do the following settings:
- Enable Report Printing: Yes
- Link Label: Print
- Response Header: Report Settings
- View File As: Attachment
- Output Format: PDF
- Report Layout: Default Report Layout
- Print URL: f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.:FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R1063230002781575
8) Open up the Report Page and click Print , You will get the pdf report.
But my requirement is bit different. I have made form on a table or view , so when i am submitting my form the record is getting updated in my database and at the same time a new button is appearing at same page as i have branched it in same page. The new button name is print. I want when i click this print button it should print the record which submitted recently. How can i enable the print functionality on form. Its simple in report but how can it be done on form?
Looking forward for this to know wthr it is achievable or not and if yes what all are the ways?
Thanks in advance for all who is going to post here and to them also who is giving their time in reading my thread
Regards
Adi

You could redirect to a report page instead of to the form page. Then simply print the report.
This makes sense. You would have one page for entering the data and another page for displaying and printing it.

Integrating OEDQ with Active Directory - Disabling SSL

Hi fellows,
I've just installed OEDQ (latest release) on a Unix machine (deployed on WebLogic Server 10.3.6) but I've a couple of concerns:
SSL Communication --> is it mandatory? I mean, I've tried to expose the dndirector admin page through an OHS Apache Web server. I'm able to access the admin page in plain mode but whenever I try to access a specific functionality (dashboard, user management, server configuration, etc) I'm being redirected to https://<web-server-hostname>:<wls-server-ssl-port>/dndirector, so this is not what I'm expecting. What's wrong? By the way, If SSL is mandatory, is there a way to expose the console via apache (avoiding any redirection)?
OEDQ with Active Directory --> the following documentation -- Integrating OEDQ with Active Directory -- covers just the Single Sign-on configuration (on both Windows/Unix os). What about a simple configuration pointing to an external ldap? The documentation reports the following statement:
It is also possible to configure OEDQ to work with different directory servers for user authentication and user identification. For information on alternative configurations, "see "Contact Us"
So, how can I achieve that?
Any pointers?
Thanks in advance,
Marco

Hi Marco
Was out of the office a bit - apologies for the delay.
It looks like you removed these lines from the configuration:
cdpad.auth
= ldap
cdpad.auth.bindmethod
= digest-md5
cdpad.auth.binddn
= search: sAMAccountName
If these are not present, the user name is combined with @cdpsede.cassaddpp.it and used to login into AD. Depending on how user names are setup, this may or may not work.
If you replace the lines above, then the user account is searched for against the AD UserPrincipalName or the sAMAccountName attributes. The value of the latter attributre is then used as the login attempt.
So for example, if you enter the user name if marco.bonadonna, EDQ would search for an AD entry with userPrincipalName = [email protected] or with sAMAccountName = marco.bonadonna and then it would use the value of the sAMAccountName attribute to connect to AD (using digest-md5 for encryption) along with the password.
If you use
cdpad.auth.binddn = search: dn
then EDQ will use the full distiinguished name (DN) of the entry in the bind attempt.
It is sometimes easier to test connections using a LDAP browser - Apache Directory Studio (see http://directory.apache.org/studio/) is one I use. You can then check user name and password combination outside EDQ.
You can also get additional server logging on LDAP interactions in EDQ by adding the line:
userauth.level = all
to the logging.properties file in the EDQ config directory. Then where will be lots of diagnostics in the EDQ main0,log file.
By the way, there is some documentation for this in the on-line help for EDQ.

Apache with OracleXE Apex...

Hi,
I installed OracleXE on my laptop. I would be able to go to Start/All Programs/Oracle Database 10g Express Edition/Go To Database Home Page
(which is C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\Database_homepage.url)
I had installed my APEX app and it worked fine.
Next step was to get FOP -- PDF conversion working...
I installed the Apache webserver locally and now need to allow Apache to be my webserver and not the one that comes with XE.
Did I say that right?
I want to get my application working again using the Apache server.
Then I will proceed with the How To involving the FOP-PDF stuff.
I believe XE was coming up as http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Now I get the error page...
If I put http://127.0.0.1/ in the URL it brings up a page that says "It works!"
which I presume is Apache saying it is working properly.
But now I am stumped how to connect the two together..
Thank you, Bill

Thanks for the help:
The following is from the XE link:
I would suggest using your Apache as a proxy to your XE installation.
Make sure that in your httpd.conf the following modules are loaded:
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
Then add the following lines to your httpd.conf:
SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
ProxyPass /htmldb http://127.0.0.1:8080/htmldb
ProxyPassReverse /htmldb http://127.0.0.1:8080/htmldb
ProxyPass /i http://127.0.0.1:8080/i
ProxyPassReverse /i http://127.0.0.1:8080/i
ProxyPass /sys http://127.0.0.1:8080/sys
ProxyPassReverse /sys http://127.0.0.1:8080/sys
where you replace
127.0.0.1
with the name or ip address of your XE installation. 8080 is the default http port of your XE installation.
Then you could access HTML DB/XE using the url http://appserver/htmldb.
