Welcome to the Create New Oracle Web Server form.
On this form are listed the parameters which are required
for running an Oracle Web Server. Once you have filled in
the required parameters, you can choose to perform either a
Basic Configuration or an Advanced Configuration.
Selecting Basic Configuration is the fastest way to configure
a new Oracle Web Server. It will submit the required values you have
specified on this form, as well as copy a set of standard default parameters
to your new Web Server configuration file. You will then be able to immediately
start up your new Oracle Web Server
Selecting Advanced Configuration will also submit the required values
and copy the set of standard default values. In addition, you will then
be presented with a form on which you can change any of the Web Server
configuration parameters.

your Oracle Web Server. This is typically either the actual

ports for service requests. The range of available ports is from

only ports greater than or equal to 1024 are available.

The default value provided is recommended.
Please enter a value for the Configuration Directory :
Clients may access your Web Server and provide a URL which does not
