OCR Initialization Accessing APEX - XE Ubuntu 7.10 VMware
632230Apr 4 2008 — edited Apr 5 2008I've successfully setup XE 10.2.0 on a Ubuntu 7.10 server guest inside VMWare and I can connect to it.
When I try to access Apex using http://host:port/apex/, I get an HTTP 404.
I've found this in the css.log:
[ OCRUTL][3068127424]u_set_comp_error: Parameter was NULL

There are a number of threads containing this symptom but there doesn't seem to be anything conclusive.
I found a problem the XEalert.log indicating that the libocr* libs were not on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I added these to the load path which after a restart got rid of the error in the XEalert.log.
However, the error in the css.log remains and I still get a 404 when accessing apex.
If I understand it correctly, OCR is used for clustering. If I don't need any clustering, is it possible to turn this off to try to solve the problem?
Thx,
Ben
