Configures the port tunneling process. Port tunneling allows all communication between Oracle HTTP Server and OC4J to happen on a single, or a small number of ports.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/iaspt/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\iaspt\conf
This is a server configuration file which typically contains directives that affect how the server runs, such as user and group IDs it should use, and location of other files. Because the server configuration file is the main file that the server starts with, Oracle HTTP Server does not include any directive that says where to locate it. The location is passed on command line when the server starts.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf\httpd.conf
You should use only this file, and not srm.conf or access.conf because it is must easier to manage a single configuration file.
httpd.conf is arranged in the following sections:
This is section one of the httpd.conf file. It contains configuration directives dealing with Oracle HTTP Server.
This is section two of the httpd.conf file. It contains the directives of the default server.
This is section three of the httpd.conf file.It contains parameters specific to virtual hosts, which override some of the main server configuration defaults.
Figure D-1 illustrates the file structure of the httpd.conf file.
As per Figure D-1, httpd.conf contains directives to include configuration files such as:
jserv.conf loads the Apache JServ communication module. The module is not loaded by default.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/etc
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Jserv\etc
mime.types controls the Multi Internet media types that are sent to the client for the given file extensions. Sending the correct media type to the client is important so that the client knows how to handle the content of the file. You can add extra types in the mime type file or add an AddType directive in the configuration file.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf
dms.conf enables you to monitor performance of site components with Oracle's Dynamic Monitoring Service (DMS).
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf
mod_oc4j.conf configures and loads the mod_oc4j module, and is enabled by default. It routes requests from Oracle HTTP Server to OC4J, and therefore contains routing information.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf
mod_osso.conf is the configuration file for mod_osso, which enables single sign-on for Oracle HTTP Server.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf
oracle_apache.conf is included in the main configuration file to store configuration files of supported modules. It contains directives to include the following configuration files:
aqxml.conf enables and configures Advanced Queuing.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf
moddav.conf configures and loads the mod_oradav module to enable distributed authoring and versioning of Web documents.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/oradav/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\oradav\conf
ojsp.conf configures Java Server Pages.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/jsp/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\jsp\conf
plsql.conf configures and loads the PL/SQL module.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/Apache/modplsql/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\Apache\modplsql\conf
xml.conf is associated the .xsql extension with the XSQL servlet.
It is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/xdk/admin
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\xdk\admin
Example D-1 oracle_apache.conf file
# Advanced Queuing - AQ XML include "/private1/oracle/Apache/Apache/conf/aqxml.conf" # #Directives needed for OraDAV module include "/private1/oracle/Apache/oradav/conf/moddav.conf" include "/private1/oracle/Apache/jsp/conf/ojsp.conf" include "/private1/oracle/Apache/modplsql/conf/plsql.conf" # include "/private1/oracle/xdk/admin/xml.conf" #
opmn.xml describes the processes that Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server (OPMN) manages within an Oracle Application Server installation.
The opmn.xml file is the main configuration file for OPMN. It contains information for the ONS, the PM, and Oracle Application Server component-specific configuration.The opmn.xml file shows you which Oracle Application Server components OPMN is managing on your system. It contains Oracle Application Server component entries arranged in the following hierarchical structure:
<ias-component>
<process-type>
<process-set>
<ias-component>: This entry represents the Oracle Application Server component. It enables management of the component for processes such as starting and stopping.
<process-type>: This subcomponent of the <ias-component> entry declares the type of process to run by association with a specific PM module.
<process-set>: This sub-subcomponent of the <ias-component> entry enables you to declare different sets of optional runtime arguments and environments for the Oracle Application Server component.
opmn.xml is located at:
UNIX: ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf
Windows: ORACLE_HOME\opmn\conf
