Apache FOP disappeared by Oracle APEX installable APEX 5.0 and 5.0.1 APEX

Hi all

Is Apache FOP 'fop.war', missing the installable Oracle APEX to APEX 5.0 (apex_5.0.zip) and APEX 5.0.1 (apex_5.0.1.zip)?

As once extraction APEX 5.0/5.0.1 is no record "fop" or "fop.war" under/path/to/apex/utilities.

But after extraction APEX 4.2.6 (apex_4.2.6.zip) it is "fop.war" to /path/to/apex/utilities/fop/fop.war

The APEX Oracle 'Configuration of printing the report' documentation for APEX 5.0 (in Oracle Application Express Administration Guide) lists 'External (Apache FOP)' as option "print server".

Reference: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E59726_01/doc.50/e39151/adm_wrkspc002.htm#BABIECEE

The Administration Instance for APEX 5.0 settings also show "External (Apache FOP)" option:

Screenshot from 2015-07-22 21:19:46.png

Therefore, the question: is Apache FOP endorsed the option of print for APEX 5.0 Server? If so, why he isn't in the installable APEX to APEX 5.0 and 5.0.1 APEX.

The second question is: point 6 in thereport of the print in a full development environment setup' for APEX portrays 5.0 "/ xmlpserver/convert" as "Print Server Script' for Apache FOP and BI Publisher. While this is correct in the case of BI Publisher, it should be for Apache FOP "/ fop/apex_fop.jsp" according to: PDF of print on demand Express 3.1 and above.

Kind regards

Hi Kiran,

If you use ADR to run APEX, then the option "external (Apache FOP)" is unnecessary. You would simply take ADR as a print server in the administration of instance APEX. "External (Apache FOP)" option it will take though, if for some reason you need to using mod_plsql or EPG for APEX and then only ADR as a print server - whereby case you will need to configure all the attributes (host, port, script), given that those who would be so different from your APEX the host and port.

Regarding your requests, I'll work on getting this pages OTN and whitepapers and documents updated regarding the printing configuration by their SUMMIT. For questions regarding ADR, I recommend posting these on the forum of ADR please:

Thank you

    You use DB Oracle 11g or later? If so, you must enable Network Services to use the configured Print Services.

    If I use ADR as print server is OK, but I need to use non-English characters.

    You should not use "External Apache FOP", but you can "Oracle REST Data Services" as an option "print server". But, you should open the ords.war file and replace the Apache FOP associated jar files so that it supports non-English characters.

    You crossed the aforementioned following threads in the thread:

    Recently, I met the following threads:

    3. ASK : if I agree that Apache FOP comes with ADR supports the Base-14 fonts and it's more issue ADR as Oracle APEX, but it will help you qualify for Oracle APEX + ADR as users of at least the next version ADR print server comes with Apache FOP 1.1 and the xmlgraphics - commons-1.5.jar. This will help the people setting up fonts and support for complex Scripts for example, Arabic, Hebrew, hindi and Southeast Asian scripts using Apache FOP comes with ADR as "print server".

  • Oracle APEX Apache connection problem

    Hello

    I have an interesting problem. I would like to install the Apache Server with mod_plsql on a server with at least another Apache server running. I thing it's an iSuites Oracle Portal. It doesn't seem to be an Apache Server installed on the machine in addition to the other server. I think that the iSuites server can be a server and report forms. I would like to set up 'my' Apache server to maintain my APEX development environment.

    I know it sounds confusing, but if you can tell me what you need your help, I can provide the information.

    Thank you

    Hi Charles,

    I'm guessing what you have is actually an installation of server applications. Basically, you need to copy the images directory and configuration and the alias for her as well as descriptors of connection in the dads.conf file. The following post has some links that should help.

  • APEX 5.0 on Oracle XE installation

    Hi all

    I am trying to install locally with APEX 5.0 on my laptop.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    The apxpreins.sql file must be in the same directory as apexins.sql, who, in your case, appears to be under c:\apex. You can check that the file can be found with dir c:\apex\apxpreins.sql?  Otherwise, you must decompress the apex_5.0.zip file again and check that the file is there.

    How to solve this problem?

    Don't know the version of exact details of Oracle 12 c that you are using, but mysteriously the question when you run apxremov_con.sql is due to know what PDB PDB $ SEEDS is not open in READ ONLY or READ WRITE State.

    With two versions of Oracle 12 c, I used (12.1.0.1.0 & 12.1.0.2.0), the SEED of $ PDB is always open in a READ ONLY State when the database is started.

    You can open your SEED of $ PDB in READ ONLY State.

    Reference: Blog of Surachart Opun: Multitenant - how to change PDB$ SEED mode as read write or mount?

    IMP QUESTION: You use an apxremov_con.sql of 5 APEX installable script?

    If Yes, then do not use this script. The reason is that APEX 4.2 is already installed in the ROOT of Oracle 12 c CBD database container $. To uninstall, go to the directory of $ORACLE_HOME/apex and use the apxremov_con.sql to this directory.

    Once you have uninstalled APEX 4.2 container root i.e. CBD$ ROOT successfully, you can go ahead and install 5 APEX in the PDB of your choice.

IE9 users had no problem. I contacted our IT support staff of any changes to security settings that day, or earlier. Absolutely no help from my frustration. I have to change maps of my application (only about 6 of them) to the Flash graphics to overcome this obstacle. This is the story behind why I use Flash cards. If anyone has experienced a similar problem in IE8 HTML5 graphics please shed any light for me... This problem may be nothing to do with the "XMLFile parameter error message', but I'm not sure.

  • Pouvez Oracle APEX used 4.2 on an Architecture not - Multitenant?

    Hello

    Oracle APEX RDBMS 12 c (E17958-11) 4.2 documentation focuses mainly on the Multitenant Architecture.

    I have a database of 12 c that was created without this option.

    SQL > select CBD from v$ database; = > returns no.

    Can I still use Oracle APEX NICU EPG with my architecture or do I need a 12 c with Multitenant Architecture database?

    Thank you and best regards.

    Short answer: Yes.

    Longer answer: APEX does not care if you use Multitenant Architecture or not. With APEX 4.2.3 it now supports the Multitenant Architecture, but focuses on the different installation types and has nothing to do with running or an APEX Application development.

    Do a quick web search for ApexLib highlights the suggestion that a part of your installation is missing. No doubt the other APEX instance includes the so-called Apex Lib, which seems to be a sort of add-on APEX framework (I never heard him personally sorry Patrick!).

    It seems that your original application has dependencies on this module, which you have not captured during migration. I suggest re - visit your existing instance of APEX and see what are the additional dependencies it (it has different points of view in the dictionary of the APEX which can help you with this) deal with them everything first, then re - try your migration of the application.
