Running the Oracle HTTP Server on OpenVMS

Apache Server Installation/Configuration

http://www.apache.org/docs/handler.html

The MOD_NEGOTIATION module provides content negotiation

.  

This module lets 

you specify language variants of HTML files

.  

To specify language variants on 

OpenVMS, use an underscore instead of a period before the language extension.

For example:

■

On UNIX, filename.html.fr is the French variant of filename.html.

■

On OpenVMS, filename.html_fr is the French variant of filename.html.

For more information, see the Apache Software Foundation documentation at the 
following web site:

http://www.apache.org/docs/content-negotiation.html

You can use the standard Apache API to write your own modules that will run on 
the Oracle HTTP Server for OpenVMS

.  

For more information, see the Apache 

Software Foundation documentation at the following web site:

http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/API.html

The suEXEC feature provides the ability to run CGI programs under user IDs 
different from the user ID of the calling web server.  This is not supported by the 
Oracle HTTP Server for OpenVMS.

All file formats are supported

.  

However, the Web browser status bar will not show 

page loading progress for logical or VFC format files larger than 8 K.

Page loading progress relies on an accurate byte count

.  

Accurate byte count is not 

readily available for files in logical or VFC format

.  

For files in these formats, the 

Oracle HTTP Server must count the bytes as the files load

.  

The counting process 

can slow performance, so it has been turned off in this situation.
