Running the Oracle HTTP Server on OpenVMS 3ñ19

The Oracle HTTP Server for OpenVMS is a non-privileged, user-mode, socket-based 
network application

.  

TMPMBX and NETMBX are the only privilege 

requirements

.  

The server runs under its own unique UIC and user account 

(ORACLE).

The Oracle HTTP Server runs as a single job which consists of:

■

A master process (ORACLE)

and

■

Several subprocesses

Subprocesses are created to service incoming HTTP requests and to execute CGI 
scripts.

Because the server runs as a single job, the OpenVMS security profile for each 
process is identical, and no enhanced mechanism is required for these processes to 
communicate with one another

.  

Resource utilization is controlled by a single user 

account (ORACLE) where pooled quotas are defined.

The Oracle HTTP Server performs three operations that require additional privilege:

■

Binding to a port below 1024 (privileged ports).

By default, the server binds to port 8080 (HTTP).

■

Fetching path information for other users.

The server provides a replacement for the getpwnam C RTL routine to allow 
the server to fetch default path information for other users (required by 
MOD_UTIL

 and MOD_USERDIR).
