ApEx: Administrative Services

Home

Getting back into the Application Express (ApEx) world again.

Trying to refresh my rusty memory on some key aspects. I figured I'd start with Administrative Services, in other words, controlling/configuring your ApEx installation.

Login
I found this confusing when I first started using ApEx. There are 2 login screens, one for the Administrative Services and one for Workspace Administration.

Administrative Services is in the (URL) form of:

http://<domain>:<port>/apex/apex_admin

For me it looks like this:

http://192.168.1.199:8080/apex/apex_admin

Which quickly resolves to:

http://192.168.1.199:8080/apex/f?p=4550:10

For Workspace Administration, the URL looks like this:

http://<domain>:<port>/apex/apex

For me it looks like this:

http://192.168.1.199:8080/apex/apex

Which quickly resolves to:

http://192.168.1.199:8080/apex/f?p=4550:1

Services
After you login, you are presented with the following screen:



Your choices are:

• Manage Service
• Manage Workspace
• Manage Applications
• Monitor Activity

Actually, I'll leave it at that for the time being. Each of those sections incorporates a bit of functionality which probably deserve their own post.
