We migrated from Oracle 10g (mod plsql) to Oracle 12cDB and OHS 12 (RESTFul services). On Oracle 10g one of our application is using build in system package owa_sec for login authentication. It will pop up the login page see below figure. See below code we are using function authorize (boolean) for verification/validation on passing the user name and password value for authentication. However after the conversation to RESTFul services the login page below no longer appear and it the program immediately errors out with "No data found". Which is true since the login window no longer pop up and no user name and password can be entered and passed. On Oracle 10g it is using dads.conf per schema to turn on the login authentication screen "<Location>...PlsqlAuthenticationMode PerPackageOwa</Location>" with the new Oracle 12cDB and OHS 12c (RESTFul services) dads.conf no longer been used. What configuration need to be done on Oracle 12cDB and OHS 12 (RESTFul services) application/database servers to activate the authentication login screen? Appreciate any feedback and recommendation. Let me know if you have further questions. Thank you.
