Application Express :: Allow Only Specific APEX App Through Oracle Http Server
Aug 1, 2012
I'm having some difficulty securing my Oracle APEX + Oracle HTTP Server environment.
There are currently around 20 Applications running on the APEX Server, and I'd like to publish 2 of them Externally for users.
I have added a certificate to Oracle Wallet Manager to secure the OHS, but I can access all the Applications on the APEX Server by just changing the Application ID suffix.
How can allow only two applications to be accessible via the internet?

We have Oracle DB 11g.I want to develop a small application for internal use the company.I have used Oracle Application Express workspace provided by Oracle and I thought of using Oracle Apex is the right tool for our internal reporting.
But I am not sure what is needed in order to start developing the application in-house.What should I check with the DBA team in order to find out if I can use Oracle APEX in the organization.Is there any prerequisites, web Server, etc that is needed in order to use Oracle Apex?

I have installed Oracle 11g XE . After this , i have upgraded to Apex 4.2 All it's working fine, but..... by default XE installs and configure apex to use embebed pl/sql gateway.
In this scenario, the images are stored directly in the database within the oracle XML DB repository. This may be a problem because XE have a 11GB limit and my apex aplication is simple, but it may upload pictures for customers, etc, and in this schenma the pictures will consume space in the database instead consuming in the linux filesystem.Can i install HTTP server in a 11g XE and reconfigure apexr?, or can i change to apache+listener? or more easy....can i upload images outside the XML DB in my apex application easily?

In Oracle Apex 5 SOD it says it will have the following feature:
"New Multi-Row Edit Region Type – Define a new region type with a modern UI for updating multiple rows of data and allow multiple regions on one page"
[URL].......
If so, how likely it will allow dynamic query (PL/SQL) in addition to simple query? Also, how likely it will include advanced features like frozen columns with group headers, subgrid, etc.? It will be nice if the grid will adjust itself based on the width of the screen.

While browsing through the APEX, just wondering if there is any way to connect external database.
Like i have database connection string/user/password and service.
Is there any way to define these information in APEX to connect with external database?

Is there any official document from Oracle which tells us how to export apex applications from command line instead of using the GUI from within apex ?
When I googled I saw some links from apex users who had written as how to export using ApexExport utilities, but since we are in windows environment, we are having hard time getting the class_path,java_home...etc setup properly. I guess its not just me most of them would have encountered it.
But I am looking for an official document from Oracle ? ( exporting Apex applications from command line in Windows Environment ).

I have registered an APEX (Oracle) online database and I can connect to database online.But my problem is how to define a connection string that can connect from the program written in C# to connect to APEX account(apex.oracle.com).I even don't know how to use the tool Oracle SQL Developer to connect to APEX account.

I'm trying to connect a javascript UI control within my page to an APEX Application Process. The control calls the application process via AJAX and appends a variable number of GET / POST parameters to its URL.What is the best way to obtain these parameters from within the PLSQL procedure of the process? Or is there a better way to connect my javascript AJAX control to the Database behind my APEX app?

This time i am downloading the Oracle 11g and then the Oracle APEX...(they are not in one package...right ? i mean they both have to download separately)i really new in oracle / PL/SQL. I'm not a programmer but i interest about database programming.For now i still use Ms. Access to develop an aplication and i really suprised i found this Oracle APEX because it an RAD tool too same as Access but more powerfull i think.

We are getting the following error when trying to access a RESTful web service coming from Apex workspace 4.2.1 and Apex listener 2.1:
ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-29024: Certificate validation failure
In the Debug report, besides the above I also see:
error_backtrace: ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 543 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 1164 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_PROCESS", line 396
We get that error whether we use https or http in the URI pointing to the web service. When I test the Web Service in Workspace RESTful service GUI, I get the data back. When I go build an application with a report calling the RESTful Web Service I get that error. Both the Application and the Workspace RESTful services are on the same Apex environment and even the same workspace.
What is odd is that I can actually put the URL of the web service into a browser and I get the data: (using the demo hr data in sample RESTful services.)IN browser-- [URL]
yields:

what would be causing the Error above in our application?
In reviewing the above error, I think we are realizing that we have to have the Weblogic layer SSL cert (actually the CERT from our BigIP load balancer which also does our SSL termination) imported into the Oracle server wallet where Apex is installed. Am I correct?

When I call a classic report that is exported throuh restful webservice, result depends on whether I also send cookie or not. In the first case, access is enabled, in the latter case, HTTP 404 is returned.
Restful access is enabled in the instance. Having an app with ID=101, page 9901 that is public, a classic report called MYREPORT on the restful side, the following call is issued:
/apex/apex_rest.getReport?app=101&page=9901&reportid=MYREPORT_ID&parmvalues=123445&output=json
If my browser send the cookie below with the request, I get back the result. If I delete the cookie from my browser, the result for the exact same apex_rest call is HTTP 404: Not found.
Cookie: ORA_WWV_USER_64731425336707=04893186A373057F5F1E1FCCD33113FA; PUBLIC_ORA_WWV_USER_64731425336707=-1; ORA_WWV_REMEMBER_UN=MYNAME:myworkspace
Details on my configuration is as follows:
Database: Oracle XE 11g, 11.2.0.2.0
Apex version: 4.1.1.00.23_en
Platform: Linux x64
HTTP is handles by XEXDB as folows from lsnrctl status:
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=kivi.omikk.bme.hu)(PORT=8080))(Presentation=HTTP)(Session=RAW))
Service "XEXDB" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "XE", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...

I am trying to find the unix process for one of my application in the database but I am unable to view the same. To simulate, I did the following.
1. My database runs on different server.
2. I invoked "sqlplus" from another unix box to login to the database.
3. I found that the process id (ps -ef |grep sqlplus).
4. When I execute the below mentioned query it does not display the process id that I am looking for. But the osuser, username, program and machine details are correct. How can I know the process details from the database?
SELECT SYS.GV_$SESSION.OSUSER, SYS.GV_$SESSION.USERNAME, SYS.GV_$PROCESS.SPID,
SYS.GV_$SESSION.MACHINE, SYS.GV_$SESSION.PROGRAM,
SYS.GV_$PROCESS.PROGRAM ,SYS.GV_$SESSION.SQL_ID
FROM
SYS.GV_$PROCESS, SYS.GV_$SESSION
WHERE
SYS.GV_$PROCESS.ADDR=SYS.GV_$SESSION.PADDR and SYS.GV_$SESSION.USERNAME='TEST'
and SYS.GV_$SESSION.MACHINE like '%hostname%'

We have many many APEX applications in APEX 3.0 running on a 10.2.0.4 database that needs desperately to be upgraded. As a test, I've set up a clean 11gR2 database and copied the production APEX database into it via datapump. I set up APEX Listener, as I don't have any OAS sitting around and the EPG doesn't seem to be supported for APEX 3.0... the Listener doesn't say one way or the other.
When trying to log in, I get the login page, but it tries to reference files such as apex_get_3_1.js while I only have files such as htmldb_get.js in my images directory in production. I noticed it is looking for what appears to be 3.1 files instead of 3.0 files... which concerns me.
The APEX listener appears to be more than just a Java PL/SQL gateway.
Is there a minimum version of APEX the APEX Listener supports?

We have integrated Oracle Access Manager 11gR1 with Oracle Apex 4.1. The OAM-Apex integration is working fine. Now we want an additional header variable to be passed from OAM to the Apex application. This new header variable will be user's sAMAccountName in Active Directory. OAM is integrated with AD and the AD users are successfully able to access the Apex applications.
The three header variables which are configure in OAM right now are:
Header variable name Value
1. OAM_REMOTE_USER $user.userid
2. OAM_REMOTE_USER_EMAIL $user.attr.mail
3. OAM_REMOTE_USER_GROUPS $user.groups
We need an additional header variable as mentioned below:
Header variable name: OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME
Value: $user.attr.samaccountname
The new header variable was added in the OHS server's dads.conf file like shown below:
=========== dads.conf =============
...
PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER
PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER_GROUPS
PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER_EMAIL
PlsqlCGIEnvironmentList HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME
But we are not able to read the value of this attribute in the Apex application.On the Apex application, we have a text box which shows the value of this header variable. This textbox is attached with the following stored procedure call to fetch the header variable:
===================
begin
:P1_HEADER_VALUE := owa_util.get_cgi_env( 'HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME' );
end;
The textbox shows the correct value if HTTP_OAM_REMOTE_USER is passed to the get_cgi_env method but does not shows anything when HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME is passed to the same method. if I am missing some configuration to pass the HTTP_OAM_SAMACCOUNTNAME haeder variable from OAM to Apex.

How do I center a button within a region? I tried 'align="center"' but this seemed to be ignored. The button is at the left of the screen. Also, what are the 'display points' (Page Template Region Position 1-8) used for, and why is there a specification for column position of 1-9? Could these be attributes that will allow my button to be centered on the window instead of on the left?

I have a translated application in Apex, my Apex version is 4.2.1.00.08. The application is in production version, many people are using it on daily basis. The application's primary language is English, and it has translations for 5 languages. Everything is working fine now; even if there are minor changes in the application, we are able to seed it, download the XLIFF files and than publish the modifications into all translations. Simple so far. My problem is that I wanted to 'clone' the application including its translations to a new one since I plan to rebuild some parts of it. I want to keep the current version untouched, not to bother users. The new application should be in the same workspace, with a new ID. I have tried a couple of approaches: Copy the primary application enabling the option 'copy translation' - this creates a new app, and also seems to create new translated applications, which are empty (not seeded, not published). Export the primary application and than import it with a manually defined new application ID. Than do the same with the translated applications and set the proper IDs in the translation mapping part of Shared components > Translation. When I try to run the primary application, it is working, but for translated versions... Only an error saying that the application page does not exist. The purpose is to clone the whole thing by keeping the connection between the primary and the translated applications, so that if I change something in the primary application, it can be seeded into the translated ones later. In the same time I want to keep translations as well, since there are thousands of strings...

Having an issue with logging into URL.... Just went through the install for APEX 4.2 for
Oracle 11.2.0.1 on Linux 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Feb 22 00:31:26 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.
Installed Apex with Embedded PL/SQL Gateway.Explicitly followed all the online instructions step-by-step, installation was success and config for EPG had no issues. Changed the ADMIN pw as instructed. Checked that EPG is running on port 8080. Ran this script to grant connect:
DECLARE ACL_PATH VARCHAR2(4000);BEGIN -- Look for the ACL currently assigned to '*' and give APEX_040200 -- the "connect" privilege if APEX_040200 does not have the privilege yet. SELECT ACL INTO ACL_PATH FROM DBA_NETWORK_ACLS WHERE HOST = '*' AND LOWER_PORT IS NULL AND UPPER_PORT IS NULL;[code]....
that lets power users to connect to everywhere',
'APEX_040200', TRUE, 'connect'); DBMS_NETWORK_ACL_ADMIN.ASSIGN_ACL('power_users.xml','*');END;/COMMIT;
When I go to log in it says "Invalid Login Credentials". I tried changing the admin pw several times but keep getting the same message.

I am wanting to open up an Item's Help popup feature using a different button.
I understand I need to call:
javascript:popupFieldHelp($('1234567','&SESSION.');
Where 1234567 is the items id.
So my question is how do I get the items ID?
I thought it was something similar:
$('#P1_ITEM_TEST').attr('id')
But this returns P1_ITEM_TEST, I want the ID or Sequence of the item.

We'll soon start an upgrade of our Forms / Reports 6i Application to 11g. I was wondering, maybe, it would be nice to add some value for the upgrade process as a whole, using some of Apex new features like web mobile interface or maybe an integration between Forms an Apex, for example to provide users with the powerful features of Interactive Reports, just to name one.
I have found this interesting link: URL.... (not a 100% clear for me, but at least it is a start).Obviously, to make it attractive, one would expect automatic login between the two Apps. As far as i know, this could be done like this:
1) Using SSO. With that a Portal / Forms / Reports/ Discoverer/ version would be mandatory (too expensive for some clients).
2) Oracle Access Manager? Not sure, can Oracle Forms connect to Access Manager? or LDAP? How about the licensing costs?. Not a clue.
3) Make all Apex pages public? Not feasible.
4) Now this one: in our forms application, every user authenticates within the application and we internally map that application user to an actual database user. At all times we hold metadata info about the current user (app, and DB), as well as application context. So this is my question:
It is possible to create an Apex app, with database authentication method, and somehow pass the metadata from forms, and have a kind of custom login procedure that does all the application to DB user conversion process and application context setting?

I'd like to upload a video file (250MB) into our Apex app and have users click a link (Display Only item perhaps) and have the video launch either in Apex, or Windows Media Player. I've tried loading it into the Shared Components - Images, but it failed b/c the file was too large. I was considering loading it into a database table, but was hoping there might be an easier way. Right now we just have a link to the video on YouTube, but want something more professional.

I'm attempting to configure printing via the APEX listener and I'm struggling to understand it. I currently use Oracle HTTP server as the web server for APEX. I have installed the APEX listener and configured it. If I connect via the APEX listener, PDFs work correctly. If I connect via the Oracle HTTP server, I get an error with PDFs. Am I required to connect with the APEX listener for PDF printing? I thought I could configure APEX listener for PDF printing on the backend and still connect via Oracle HTTP server. I'm use APEX 4.2.3, APEX Listener 2.0.5, and Oracle DB 11.1.0.7.

I've created a system for managing football within APEX and it is at a stage now whereby the user can view any number of the tables through Reports and insert data into these tables through Tabular Forms. Its using triggers and sequences to allow for new primary keys to be generated each time within these Tabular Forms so I'm at a stage now where I'm really quite pleased with it..
The last thing I'm needing to do now is have it update certain fields when certain records are entered.
Clubs
clubId
clubname
gamesplayed
clubPoints
clubtotalgoals
Results
club1 (clubId foreign key from clubs table)
club2 (clubId foreign key from clubs table)
club1goals (the amount of goals, type Number)
club2goals (the amount of goals, type Number)
club1points (points earned, Type Number)
club2points (points earned, Type Number)
When filling out a result, the user will enter the following (as an example):
club1 - 1 (club with ID, 1)
club2 - 12 (club with ID, 12)
club1goals - 2 (the first club scored 2 goals)
club2goals - 0 (the second club scored 0 goals)
club1points - 3 (the first club picked up 3 points)
club2points - 0 (the second club picked up 0 points)
The result is then entered into the results table and what I am hoping to achieve at this stage is the following:
1) in the clubs table, the gamesplayed is incremented by 1 for both clubs as a result of playing this fixture
2) club1 has however many goals club1 scored added to its current clubtotalgoals field (in this case, it is of course 2)
3) club1 has however many points club1 earned to its current clubPoints field. (In this case it would be 3)

I think, mixing APEX_APPLICATION and APEX_ITEM pl/sql api can solve this question but not sure....
