This is because you have the Applet loaded and that grey portion is the applet portion whose height and width is been defined in your dynamic HTML file generated by Forms servlet.

Question on Oracle 9iAS and Oracle 6i/9i tools...
We will be building an environment (multiple hosts and environments) that will be used for reporting. And we will be using the Oracle suite of products (9iAS, iDS). I'm tasked with determining some of the architecture of the environment. And primarily for the Oracle 9i environment used as a repository and some of the 9iAS infrastructure... And having not had the time to play in the sand box - I need to make some blind assumptions. But was hoping that folks on the list could offer some suggestions... For example-how large of a repository is typically required for the Oracle MetaData used for the reports? I assume that it depends on the number of reports,etc.. But is there any rule of thumb(you know-like a swag) that you all have used in sizing the environment? What about other file system space requirements to consider??? For example-one of the tasks will be that the reports will be executed the evening before-and the output would be saved.. Will this require additional disk space as part of the 9iAS implementation? What typical space and file system setup have you all seen as best practices for the 9iAS environment? I know, I know - read the #$$^%$#$%# manual... But unfortunately-there is a rather tight deadline with not much lead time.. So I would appreciate any tips that you could offer from your experience in the implementation of this suite of tools...

Oracle 9iAS Rel.2 requires OID
Hi Just browsing through the documentation for 9iAS 9.0.2 and I am a bit surprised. It looks as though you have to install the so called Infrastructure (SingleSignOn, Oracle Internet Directory and a metadata repository) if you want to use Portal or Discoverer. If you are just running web apps then you don't need the Infrastructure. We are using 9iAS R1 for web apps and taking a look at Portal and Discoverer. But if they require the OID then I doubt we will use them. Oracle appears to be forcing you to become an all-Oracle shop. Why am I surprised?

Hmmm...but with all the problems we've been having with OiD and replication (BUG 2369181 was opened for us), I don't forsee us being able to use it.

It's a bit of a hack, since Oracle doesn't follow standard LDIF rules (and as a sidenote, doesn't enforce referential integrity because they allow an attribute to be deleted even if it's in use!), but it seems to work great.

It looks as though you have to install the so called Infrastructure (SingleSignOn, Oracle Internet Directory and a metadata repository) if you want to use Portal or Discoverer. If you are just running web apps then you don't need the Infrastructure. We are using 9iAS R1 for web apps and taking a look at Portal and Discoverer. But if they require the OID then I doubt we will use them. Oracle appears to be forcing you to become an all-Oracle shop.

RE: Does Oracle 9iAS only run on Apache?
Well. you could look at Note 134284.1 on MetaLink. I've never tried iAS with anything other than Oracle's Apache distribution so I can't say if this document suffices. [You could also look at Note 132466.1 on the Oracle Plug-In for IIS to run Oracle PLSQL applications through IIS. Again, I've not done it].

RE: Does Oracle 9iAS only run on Apache?
Hear, hear is something members of parliament say in the House of Commons in the UK and in Canada when they agree with a point someone else said. They also hit their desks, which sometimes wakes up other members of parliament. My point was that iAS has many components, it is not straightforward to set up and administer, trying to strip out components to make iAS work with alternative configurations is not something I would recommend, as someone who administers two iAS 1.0.2.2. servers on NT. I don't know about the later versions, but 1.0.2.2. still uses 806 forms and reports, for example. I have no idea why Forms and Reports is so far behind the rdbms version. Administering iAS can quickly become a full-time job, if you really want to get into it. I assume most DBAs have other things to do with their time than try to make non-standard configurations work. No need for acerbic rhetoric, there is an OT list for that. Have a good weekend, try to relax, life is too short.

FYI: Buffer Overflow in Oracle 9iAS
NGSSoftware Insight Security Research Advisory Name:Oracle PL/SQL Apache Module Systems Affected: Oracle 9iAS Platforms: Sun SPARC Solaris 2.6 MS Windows NT/2000 Server HP-UX 11.0/32-bit Severity: High Risk Vendor URL: http://www.oracle.com/ Author: David Litchfield ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Date: 20th December 2001 Advisory number: #NISR20122001 Description *** The web service with Oracle 9iAS is powered by Apache and provides many application environmentswith which to offer services from the site. These include SOAP, PL/SQL, XSQL and JSP. Two security issues exists in the PL/SQL Apache module - one a buffer overrun vulnerability and the second a directory traversal issue. The directory traversal issue affects only Windows NT/2000. Details *** The PL/SQL module exists to allow remote users to call procedures exported by a PL/SQL package stored in the database server. As part of the functionality offered by the PL/SQL module it is possible to remotely administer the Database Access Descriptors and from here access help pages. Normally, access to the /admin_/ pages is restricted - a UserID and password are required but not for the help pages however. A buffer overrun vulnerability exists in the module whereby a request for an overly long help page will cause the overflow overwriting the saved return address on the stack. By overwriting this saved return address with an address that contains a call esp or jmp esp instruction a potential attack would land into the user-supplied buffer and any computer code in the buffer would be executed. On Windows 2000/NT the apache process is running is the security context of the SYSTEM account by default so any code executed would do so without inhibition and an attacker could gain complete control over this system remotely. The second issue relates to a double URL decoding problem that allows attackers to make a special request for a help file and break outside of the web root. Fix Information *** NGSSoftware alerted Oracle to these problems on the 18th of November who responded quickly with a patch. This patch has been available from the Metalink site (http://metalink.oracle.com) for over a week and both Oracle and NGSSoftware urge Oracle 9iAS customers to download and install this patch if they have not already done so. Oracle's advisory on this issue can be found at http://otn.oracle.com/deploy/security/pdf/modplsql.pdf. Further to applying the patch it is suggested that the default /admin_ path be changed to something else. To do this edit the wdbsvr.app file located in the $ORACLE_HOME$\Apache\modplsql\cfg directory. Edit the adminPath entry. A check for these issues has been added to Typhon II, of which more information is available from the NGSSoftware website, http://www.ngssoftware.com. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

Security Alert : Oracle 9iAS Web Cache
Our security folks just sent me this. The Federal Computer Incident Response Center (FedCIRC) and Computer Emergency Response Team/Coordination Center (CERT/CC) have issued an advisory (FA-2001-29/CA-2001-29) which discusses a buffer overflow vulnerability with the Oracle9iAS Web Cache. This vulnerability, discovered by Defcom Labs, is remotely exploitable on all platforms and allows intruders to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the web cache process or disrupt the normal operation of the Web Cache. Intruders may also be able to intercept and/or modify sensitive data such as credentials and other types of sensitive information passing through the host running Web Cache. Finally, the Web Cache can be used as an entry point into the network, or the intruder can leverage an existing trust relationship between Web Cache and another system to allow the intruder to gain access to the other system. The entire advisory can be found on the FedCIRC Web Page at http://www2.fedcirc.gov/advisories/FA-2001-29.html.

I am using the metalink document 132444.1 "Common Installation Problems with Portal 3.0 (9IAS)" to help me troubleshoot. My first problem was that the Java Virtual Machine was not properly installed in the database. I ran initjvm.sql and then reinstalled Portal 3.0. That took care of the first set of problems. When I try to connect to the "Portal Page", "Login Server Page" or the "Gateway Settings Page" I get a "Page cannot be Displayed" message. So ... Now I am trying to verify that the Apache Listener and Jserver are set up correctly. I can access http://machine_ip_address: . This page has the "HTTP Components" listed. I can access everything on this page but: "Jserver Demo" http://machine_ip_address:/servlet/IsItWorking/ and "mod_plsql" http://machine_ip_address:/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.wwsso_app_admin .ls_login The document says that if you cannot access the Jserver Demo to verify that JDK 1.2.2 is installed. In my case it was not, so I downloaded the JDK 1.2.2_07 self extracting binary from Sun and installed it. I changed the jserv.properties file to point wrapper.bin to the location where JDK 1.2.2 was installed and added 2 wrapper.classpath lines for the dt.jar and tools.jar. I also modified the PATH variable to have the JDK 1.2.2 location as the first directory in the list. Then I stopped and started the Apache listener. I also verified that I can connect from the 9iAS server to the Database server using sqlplus which was successful. I still cannot access the Jserv Demo. I really don't know what to look at next. Any ideas?

Oracle 9iAs on Linux intel
Hi Everybody, Did anyone install and work on oracle9iAS on Linux intel. I'm doing it. In my case my 8.1.7 database is on a seperate NT machine. When I installed 9iAS it gave problem in installing two components. one is database cache and other is portal30. In both cases it asked for connection to database. While I made some entry in TNSnames.ora it worked partially for database cache as it failed at 96%. It failed at updating userlist it gave error ORA-28575 "unable to open RPC connection for external procedures". And secondly it did not connect to database when I install portal30. How do I solve these problems, is there any way to install the remaining components again. Moreover, I'm working first time on Linux so I don't know how to set path and oracle home variables. permanently. Is there any file like '.bat' in windows which set the path. Help needed. Also if there is any book for oracle 9i and linux.

ORACLE 9iAS
Hi! I'm sorry if my question is somewhat irrelevant to the list... My team has a project concerning Information / e-commerce portal and are doing a study of application servers and portal frameworks. One of the solutions we have in mind is Oracle 9iAS with Oracle PDK. Has anybody got experience with it, and are there some major disadvantages in using it? Also, any comments/suggestions are welcome... Thank you.
