What is Oracle HTTP Server?

Oracle HTTP Server or OHS is an extension of the standard Apache distribution. It provides a robust and reliable Web server. You can access to FORMS, REPORTS, Discoverer, and Portal via the Web.

Configuring Directives and Virtual Hosts


What is directive?

Directives are files to use for configuring the server. For example, the web master of an Oracle HTTP Server contains more than 120 directives at his or her disposal for configuring the server. It contains container directives. The containers have opening and closing tag. Any directive that doesn�t appear within a container applies to the entire serve.


What is the <Directory> directive and how do you maintain it?

It is a group of directives that apply to the named directory and subdirectories.
Examples of how to maintain the <Directory> directive:
<Directory /> -- refers to the whole file system.
Options none
AllowOverride none
</Directory>
<Directory /home/myfiles/*> --refers to the myfiles subdirectory under home.
AllowOverride none
</Directory>
<DirectoryMatch �/u0[1-6]/�> --refers to directories that start with u0 and end with a number from 1 to 6
AllowOverride none
</Directory>
