For those that access PL/SQL through the application server (Oracle 9iAS),
there is mod_plsql for Apache.
Is there an equivalent for OrionServer? I do not believe that there is so
those users would still need to rely on Apache.

So why use Apache?
The Orionserver will serve up static http pages...I've looked and tehre are
no issues I can see that Orion won't handle with regards the content 9i and
the v.11/12 Oracle Apps...
This is not meant as a criticism or flame...it's for my info, as I also
support Oracle and have no prob running w/ just the OrionServer (w/ out
Apache). Of course, all my apps are written to run that way. What does
Apache do for Oracle that Orion can't do better?
