Configuring XE under VirtualBox to access APEX from outside guest

664279Oct 9 2008 — edited Oct 12 2008

Hi,

I don't know if I'm addressing the proper forum, but I'd like to discard all the possibilities...
I installed a VirtualBox with Ubuntu 8.04 with Oracle Express Edition. After installation I can access from guest machine with no problem to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex

I used port forwarding to be able to access guest from the outside. I forwarded ports 80, 1521 (DB) and 8080 (APEX). After doing this I am able to access DB through SQL Developer from outside guest, but I'm unable to access APEX installation. I checked guest IP which was 10.0.2.15, so I tried to access http://10.0.2.15:8080/apex from Host but no luck...

I don't know how DBMS_XDB works and whether I have to forward more ports than usual http port (80) and APEX (8080)...

Any help will be appreciated!

Josep
