This chapter contains the following topics:
Section 5.1, "State of Oracle Application Server Instances After Installation"
Section 5.3, "If You Restart the Computer After Installation"
Section 5.4, "Passwords for Oracle Application Server Components"
Section 5.7, "Regional and Language Option Settings and the NLS_LANG Parameter"
After installation, the components that you have configured are started.
You can view the Welcome page and the Application Server Control page in a browser. The URLs for these pages are displayed in the last screen of the Oracle Universal Installer. You can view the contents of the last screen in the file ORACLE_HOME\install\setupinfo.txt.
Some of the Oracle Application Server components run as Microsoft Windows services. You can see them in the Services dialog. To display the Services dialog:
On Microsoft Windows 2003, select Start, Administrative Tools, Services.
On Microsoft Windows XP, select Start, All Programs, Administrative Tools, Services.
You can use scripts or you can use the Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Server Control to start and stop Oracle Application Server components. For details, refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
If you restart the computer after installation, be aware that not all components will be started up automatically upon restart. For instructions on how to start up processes and the start-up order, refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
If you restart the computer after installation, not all components will start up automatically. Only services are started up automatically. Components that do not use services will remain down until you start them manually. For instructions on how to start processes and the start-up order, refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
By default, all passwords for Oracle Application Server components are set to be the same as the Oracle Application Server instance password. For security reasons, you should change the passwords of the various components to have different values.
Refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide and the component guides in the Oracle Application Server Documentation Library for details on how to alter the passwords for the components you have installed.
After installation would be a good time to start backing up the files, and to set up your backup and recovery strategy. For details, refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
By default, most components are not configured for SSL. To enable SSL, refer to the SSL section in the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
Ensure that the language setting of your account is consistent with the system default language. Based on the language setting, the NLS_LANG parameter is automatically defined in the Microsoft Windows registry.After installation, do not change the system default language. Otherwise, the NLS_LANG parameter and the language setting will be inconsistent.
If you did not configure a component during installation (that is, if you did not select the component in the Select Configuration Options screen), then you can configure some components after installation. Some components have dependencies that you have to complete before you can configure the component.
After installing Oracle Application Server, you should read the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide. Specifically, you should read the "Getting Started After Installing Oracle Application Server" chapter.
You should also perform a complete Oracle Application Server environment backup after installing Oracle Application Server. This enables you to restore a working environment in case something goes wrong. For details on how to perform a complete Oracle Application Server environment backup, refer to the Oracle Application Server Administrator's Guide.
You should also perform a complete Oracle Application Server environment backup after each successful patchset upgrade and after each successful configuration change.
