Running iSQL*Plus

The Oracle HTTP Server and the iSQL*Plus Server must be running on the middle tier before you can run iSQL*Plus.

To run iSQL*Plus

1. Enter the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of iSQL*Plus in the Location field of your web browser, for example:

   http://host.domain/isqlplus
   

   where host.domain is the URI for the Oracle HTTP Server you want to use. The iSQL*Plus Log In screen is displayed.

   Each successful login is uniquely identified, so you can have multiple iSQL*Plus sessions running from the same machine, or from multiple client machines.

2. Enter your Username, Password and Connection Identifier.

3. Select the Privilege level you want to use to connect to Oracle9i.

4. Click the Log In button. The iSQL*Plus Work screen is displayed.

When you connect with AS SYSDBA or AS SYSOPER privileges, the URI changes from the form

http://host.domain/isqlplus

to the form

http://host.domain/isqlplusdba

When you are connected through the isqlplusdba URI, the Oracle HTTP Server authentication permits AS SYSDBA or AS SYSOPER connections through the Log In screen, or through a CONNECT command, but the Oracle9i username and password authentication may still prevent access.
