Enabling Oracle HTTP Server as a Proxy

  To enable Oracle HTTP Server as a proxy to Integrated Operational Planning:

1. Stop the Integrated Operational Planning server:

   Windows:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/stopIOPServer_iopinstance1.bat

   Linux:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/stopIOPServer_iopinstance1.sh

2. Add the following lines to

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/httpConfig/ohs/config/OHS/ohs_component/mod_wl_ohs.conf:

   RedirectMatch 301 ^/interlace$ /interlace/
   <LocationMatch ^/interlace/>
   SetHandler weblogic-handler
    WeblogicCluster iop_server:port
   WLIOTimeoutSecs 10000000000000000
   WLSocketTimeoutSecs 10000000000000000
   </LocationMatch>
   

   where iop_server is the fully qualified domain name of the Integrated Operational Planning server,

   and port is the value set in Server.Weblogic.TargetServer.Port=. The default value is 27080.

3. To add static files to the Oracle HTTP Server:

   1. On the Oracle HTTP Server machine, unzip interlace_static.zip to

      EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/epmstatic/interlace.

   2. Update EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/httpConfig/ohs/config/OHS/ohs_component/httpd.conf to include the following line before the line that includes mod_wl_ohs.conf:

      RewriteRule ^/interlace/static/(.*) /epmstatic/interlace/$1 [PT]

      For example:

      RewriteEngine On
      RewriteRule ^/workspace/static/(.*) /epmstatic/wspace/$1 [PT]
      RewriteRule ^/interlace/static/(.*) /epmstatic/interlace/$1 [PT]
      
      # Include the configuration files needed for mod_weblogic
      include "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/${COMPONENT_NAME}/mod_wl_ohs.conf"
      

      where the value of RewriteRule matches the value of the property called Server.LogicalWebAddress.ContextRoot. See Server Settings.

      In the above example, Server.LogicalWebAddress.ContextRoot is set to /workspace/ or /interlace/.

   Note:

   The static files can be shared for all instances of Integrated Operational Planning in the domain.

4. Restart Oracle HTTP Server, either through the NT service or using this command:

   Windows:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/stop|startOHS.bat

   Linux:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/stop|startOHS.sh

5. Add the following line to custom/config/site.properties:

   Server.LogicalWebAddress.Port=19000

   Set the port to the Oracle HTTP Server port used for all other EPM System products. The default value is 19000.

6. Rerun INSTALL_ROOT/bin/createiopinstance.

7. Start the Integrated Operational Planning server.

   Windows:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/startIOPServer_iopinstance1.bat

   Linux:

   EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/startIOPServer_iopinstance1.sh

8. Access the Integrated Operational Planning server through the Oracle HTTP Server proxy using the following URL:

   http://myhost.domain.com:port/interlace

   where port refers to the setting in Server.LogicalWebAddress.Port.
