APEX Listener on Weblogic setup
Hello,
I am having a problem with APEX Listener on Weblogic related to
images and dads.conf
Quick Background info:
We are moving from HPUX to Oracle Linux. I just started with the APEX part of this move.
Linux Kernel:
uname -r
2.6.32-300.7.1.el5uek)
Database:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
CORE 11.2.0.3.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
On our new Linux database server I have a fresh APEX 4.1 installed.
/i/ is the images prefix
I did the ACL and all other tasks per the Application Express
Installation Guide Release 4.1
On our new Linux App server we have Weblogic installed and I installed APEX Listener
per the Application Express Listener Installation and Developer Guide.
So for APEX, I created a directory
/u01/apex
drwxr-xr-x 25 oracle dba 36864 Aug 23 2011 images
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle dba 139928436 Mar 1 13:09 i.war
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle dba 9831173 Mar 1 13:17 apex.war
drwxr-xr-x 4 oracle dba 4096 Mar 1 14:17 apex_listener
drwxr----- 3 oracle dba 4096 Mar 1 14:38 apex
- images is the APEX 4.1 images I copied from the new Linux database server
- apex.war and i.war were created per the "Application Express Listener
Installation and Developer Guide"
- apex_listener directory is the unzipped listener and the zip file apex_listener.1.1.3.243.11.40.zip
- apex is the location of apex-config.xml after I change web.xml - this was created
with the http://<our app server>:8790/apex/listenerConfigure
In our weblogic console I deployed "apex" and "i", created the admin and
manager accounts in the security realm per listener installation. These are deployed
under a managed sever.
Here is where I am stumbling:
1. images
After "applying" the basic connection in listenerConfigure, I got a blank web
page to http://<our app server>:8790/apex/f?p=4550:1
meaning the images are not being seen.
2. How does this installation of APEX listener know about dads.conf?
I can't find how to relate APEX listener, the "apex" and "i" deployments
and dads.conf
Here's the dads.conf with the alias for /i/
(Of course <the database server> and <the SID> below are not the literal values in the file)
/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/asinst_1/config/OHS/ohs1/mod_plsql/dads.conf
Alias /i/ "/u01/apex/images/"
AddType text/xml xbl
AddType text/x-component htc

Any help or a pointer to a document I could not find would be appreciated.
Thanks,
