URL to access Apex

Hi all,
I got a very strange problem..
When I try to access my Apex as usual with the URL : http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, i'm automatically redirected to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex, that leads to nothing...
That's the first time this problem occurs..
Does anybody have ideas?
Thanks a lot,
Dovik

Hi
Apex/apex like /apex/apex_admin
also try to login
Alternatively, you can try logging in to the normal login interface at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex
Workspace: INTERNAL
Username: ADMIN
Password: password you supplied to apxxepwd.sql
hope this helps

How to access a url only from APEX

Hi all.
We have a system that is accesible from internet, We are trying to secure the access to this system via login from APEX in order to deny the access to the URL if the request is not from our APEX app.
We configured the corresponding hostname in our APEX server and some firewall rules, but when a client clicks the link the hostname is looked in the client's computer, so is never found.
Is there any way to make this hostname resolution in the server's side?
Thanks in advance, regards.

sKC,
You may need to explain yourself in more detail
"How do I access a URL only from APEX?"
If you are trying to limit access to "mynormal.server.com" by seeing if the end user clicked on a link from "myapex.server.com", the answer is:
You don't.
Trying to limit access to a web page based on how you got there is a really really bad form of security due to the false sense of security it implies.
It is so bad that it is better to not even try.
reason:
All URL requests can be easily manipulated by the client computer that is making the request. (ie the request is easily faked.)
The Unix utility wget can be used to fake the 'referrer' information.

Accessing APEX from E-Business Suite 11.5.10

Hi All -
I am brand new to APEX and have basically inherited the program duties b/c the school district that I work for had to cut costs and therefore had to let our consultants go - which means that I need to manage the system with no knowledge.....
that being said - I apologize in advance if I am very slow.
My first task is to see if we can set up the system where the users can access APEX straight from Oracle without having to login a separate time. I found this doc: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/Extend_Oracle_Applications_11i.pdf
I tried to follow that but am sure I am missing something. Here is what I put in my pl/sql procedure:

Navigate to external URL from secured APEX server

NOTE I am using the internal Oracle APEX server to host my application, so it may be possible that you will have to be an Oracle employee with the same access, or using a similar setup, in order to respond. Even if you are not, if you feel inclined to "take a swing" at it, keep this in mind.
Hi all,
I am using the internal APEX server at oracle to host an application (Application Express 4.0.2.00.07). I have other, NON-APEX applications hosted on other servers within the Oracle firewall.
On page 0 of the APEX application (which, as you may know, usually displays as the "header" section of every other page in the application) I have created a select list of the other projects and their associated URLs as well as a "Go" button, so users that want to navigate to the other applications can do so from this application. Since page 0 does not seem to allow the creation of standard branch items (please correct me otherwise), I have created a process on that page triggered by the "Go" button. The process currently contains the following code:
begin
apex_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript">
window.open (:P0_PRODUCT_PAGES); 
</script>');
end;
That code currently replaces the existing page with a blank page and the associated URL is "https://apex.oraclecorp.com/pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept". I am assuming this means that APEX was looking for an application ID and/or page and did not get it so it "stopped" at this page.
I am unaware if there are any settings on the APEX server, DB,or associated web server preventing me from navigating outside of APEX once I am running the hosted application.
I would like to launch another properly-sized (default) browser window rather than replace the existing window pointing to the URL for the selected application.
I have also tried using the owa.util code to try to generate the proper URL but was likewise unsuccessful.
NOTE: I am not looking for different ways to do this by changing server parameters, settings, etc. since I do not have server rights to do this. Additionally, due to time constraints, I would prefer not to be drawn in to a discussion of the comparisons and/or benefits of owa.util or javascript over the other for navigating to an external URL from within APEX, etc. (I'm not trying to be a "punk", but I AM under the gun to resolve this with very limited time). In light of this, please indicate if you have a working option to do this under similar conditions that I can implement quickly. I have done much research within the forums and Googled extensively for information from outside sources but have not yet found something that will provide the proper results.
If you are an oracle employee and wish to contact me directly, please email me at [email protected]
Crossing my fingers and hoping someone has done this before.
Many thanks in advance; your useful contribution will actually contribute to lessening the world's INSOMINA factor considerably (mostly mine). ;)

Opening a URL in a new tab or window has to happen in the browser, without submitting the page. The server doesn't know about browser windows. Use:
onchange="window.open(this.value);" in the HTML Form Element Attributes property of <tt>P0_PRODUCT_PAGES</tt> (making the "Go" button unnecessary), or, if the "Go" button is required to match the LAF:
onclick="window.open($v('P0_PRODUCT_PAGES'));"in the button Attributes property, ensuring the button is a template button including the <tt>#BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#</tt> substitution string, e.g.
<input type="button" value="#LABEL#" #BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES# />Ensure that absolute URLs are used in the <tt>P0_PRODUCT_PAGES</tt> where necessary, specifying the correct scheme for the site, so that you are not trying to go to <tt>{noformat}https://apex.oraclecorp.com/pls/apex/www.google.com{noformat}</tt> for example:
f?FOO:BAR:&APP_SESSION. // other APEX app hosted on apex.oraclecorp.com sharing the same authentication scheme
https://foo.oraclecorp.com // other secured internal site
http://www.google.com // unsecured external site

Apache URL redirect causes APEX to point to the wrong images folder

Hello All,
I am using the following in httpd.conf
Redirect / http://hostname/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard
When I try accessing APEX the application can't locate the image folder. For example instead of looking for e2.gif in
http://hostname/i/e2.gif
it's looking for the images in
http://hostname/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboardi/e2.gif
How do I point APEX to the correct image folder?
Thanks
Fiston

Hi, Fiston
try using RedirectMatch directive
RedirectMatch ^/$ http://hostname/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard
or maybe
RedirectMatch ^/$ /analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard

How can I block a url from accessing my browser?

I want to block a url from accessing my browser. The url in question, djbsaqja.co.cc, flashed a pop-up saying that my computer was infected with a dangerous virus and that "Windows Security" required that I download a program to fix it.
I maintain realtime virus protection, but ran a manual scan anyway, which proved that I was clean.
The url listed above would not let me out of an unending chain of popups, demanding that I download their tool.
Instead, I opened a new Firefox session (it was the only way I could re-enter Firefox without this rogue url taking control), then cleared out my history, cache and cookies.
I'm clean...and now I'm back in control with, I believe, no damage. But since I wrote down the url, is there a way that I can block from accessing my browser again?
Thanks for the help.

You can add it to your hosts file - http://allthingsmarked.com/2006/08/28/howto-block-websites-using-the-hosts-file
Sites like that pop up on a regular basis, but will often get taken down quite quickly. I have just checked and the site appears to have been taken down.

URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration

I don't understand your use of the word 'class' in your reply - I am using php not asp.net.
The name of the file that you are trying to access is MM_XSLTransform.class.php. It is a PHP class created by Dreamweaver for the XSL Transformation server behavior.
The servers php is 5.2.11, as it has been for sometime, so I know that it previously worked with allow_url_fopen = on and allow_url_include = off
Judging from the error message, you are trying to include the file using a URL, rather than a file path:
Fatal error: require_once() [
function.require]: Failed opening required 'http://www.xxxxx.co.uk/includes/MM_XSLTransform/MM_XSLTransform.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php5') in

Change the URL to a file path:
require_once('/homepages/0/xxxx/htdocs/includes/MM_XSLTransform/MM_XSLTransform.class.php');
Is it possible for phpinfo() to show allow_url_fopen = on yet be actually off on the server?
No.

(( SQL DEVELOPER UserName Password??? --- To Access APEX TABLES ))

How do I access APEX tables from SQL DEVELOPER?
What do I use as a USERNAME and PASSWORD--
inside SQL DEVELOPER?
Hello,
I have APEX installed on my machine.
WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL 64 BIT.
I also have installed:
ORACLE XE
and
SQL DEVELOPER.
I have applications I have created in APEX
with various tables.
Question:
How can I access my APEX tables from
within SQL DEVELOPER?
What USERNAME and PASSWORD do I use?
I can do this with
HR
SQL DEVELOPER USERNAME = HR
PASSWORD = HR
This works fine.
But what about for my own APEX TABLES
I created inside my own workspace
inside APEX?
For example:
LOGIN TO APEX:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/
If my
APEX WORKSPACE = DAVID_WS
SCHEMA = DAVID_SC
APEX USERNAME = DAVIDAPEX_UN
APEX PASSWORD = DAVIDAPEX_PW
LOGIN TO APEX ADMIN:
http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin
APEXADMIN USERNAME = DAVIDADMIN_UN
APEXADMIN PASSWORD = DAVIDADMIN_PW
So, given the above 6
NAMES and PASSWORDS above:
SQL DEVELOPER USERNAME = ????
SQL DEVELOPER PASSWORD = ????
Thanks a lot for your help!
David
Edited by: DAVID888 on Feb 3, 2011 11:53 PM

Hello david,
When you created your workspace with the below details, if the schema "DAVID_SC" was created through APEX, then you should have also specified the password as well.
APEX WORKSPACE = DAVID_WS
SCHEMA = DAVID_SC
APEX USERNAME = DAVIDAPEX_UN
APEX PASSWORD = DAVIDAPEX_PWIf you dont remember the password for "DAVID_SC", you can log on to your Oracle XE database as a "SYSTEM" user and reset the password of "DAVID_SC".
Once that is done, you can log on to SQL developer with :
username : david_sc
password : <your_new_password>
Hope it is clear and plz refer to the APEX documentation to get a better understanding of it.

How to hide _layouts in the URL while accessing an application page

Can we create any friendly URL while accessing any custom application page. I don't want to show _layouts in the URL So how can i mask the URL.

The application pages should be in the _layouts folder (or _admin for application pages for central admin).
You can put pages at friendly urls, but then they should be site pages, which you provision using a "Module" element from Visual Studio. But be aware that then users will be able to modify them using SharePoint designer.
There are methods to achieve this somehow, but you should not do it in sharepoint.

Last URL used by APEX

Short Version: Is there a way to get the last URL in APEX using PL/SQL?
Long Version:
I am updating a standard error handling package to log the URL of the APEX page where the error occurred. I have a simple call that can be included in the exception section. For example:
BEGIN
...statements
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
frwe_err_pkg.unexpected
END;
This call logs the error and redirects the application to a standard error page. I'm also logging the URL as part of the error context using the following code to get the url:
FUNCTION apex_url
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
l_url VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
l_url := owa_util.get_cgi_env ('REQUEST_PROTOCOL') || '://'
|| owa_util.get_cgi_env ('HTTP_HOST') || ':'
|| owa_util.get_cgi_env ('SERVER_PORT') || '/'
|| owa_util.get_cgi_env ('SCRIPT_NAME')
|| owa_util.get_cgi_env ('PATH_INFO') || '?'
|| owa_util.get_cgi_env ('QUERY_STRING');
RETURN l_url;
END apex_url;
This works great in cases where errors occur in PL/SQL blocks for page level items and ON LOAD processes but I'm running into problems with ON SUBMIT page level processes because the URL is redirected. When an ON SUBMIT process raises an error owa_util.get_cgi_env ('PATH_INFO') returns "wwv_flow.accept" and owa_util.get_cgi_env ('QUERY_STRING') returns NULL. Is there a way to get the URL previous to the redirect using PL/SQL?

I wrote a logging package that I plan to "release" someday soon. The following procedure might be useful to you in the context of your question:
procedure snapshot_apex_items(
        p_log_id in number)
    is
        l_app_session number;
        l_app_id       number;
    begin
        $IF $$APEX $THEN
            l_app_session := v('APP_SESSION');
            l_app_id := v('APP_ID');
            insert into logger_logs_apex_items(log_id,app_session,item_name,item_value)
                select p_log_id,l_app_session,item_name,item_value
                  from wwv_flow_data
                  where flow_instance = l_app_session
                    and flow_id = l_app_id
                    and item_name is not null;
        $END
        null;
    end snapshot_apex_items;You need to grant select on wwv_flow_data to whatever user owns this package / procedure. Don't grant anything more than select and don't grant it to public. I call this proc from exception blocks or wherever I need to debug a tough problem. The table is a child of my main logger table which already has module, action, client_id, sqlerr, callstack, etc. This proc grans the name / value pairs of every item in your current APEX session.

[b]Urgent How to send XML file from forms 6.0 to a url to access database[/

hi
i need to create an XML with some values file from Oracle Forms 6.0 and then send this XML file To a URL to access the database,which in turn will send me XML file with new values.Can any body help me out as i don't have any ideas
Regards
Sunil

Sunil,
and this must be using a URL and can't be handled by a database stored procedure ?
Anyway, your scenario can be achieved using teh Java Importer in Forms 6i and above. You woudl write a Java program that takes a String and loads it to an URL. It then checks the response URL for its content.

How to access Apex environments that exist in multiple SID's on same Server

HI,
I've got a Linux Server which has 3 11gr2 Development instances (SID's), in each instance I'd like to setup Apex environment (I know Apex comes with the 11gr2 DB). How can I access a specific Apex environment (on one of the SID's) when all the database instances share the same IP Address?
Any suggestions?
TIA

Sorry for the silly Q, all I need to do is run EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT(port); specifying a different port for each SID!
