Oracle Application Server Installation Guide

11.3 NFS Installations

If you installed Oracle Application Server on an NFS disk, you need to edit the

LockFile

directive in the

ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf

file

so that it points to a local disk. This file is used by the Oracle HTTP Server component.

See the

Oracle HTTP Server Administrator’s Guide

for details.

11.4 Backup and Recovery

After installation would be a good time to start backing up the files, and to set up your
backup and recovery strategy. See the

Oracle Application Server Administrator’s Guide

for

details.

11.5 SSL

By default, most components are not configured for SSL. To enable SSL, see the SSL
section in the

Oracle Application Server Administrator’s Guide

11.6 Operating System Locale and NLS_LANG Environment Variable

If you installed Oracle Application Server in a non-English language environment,
please check your settings as described in these sections:

■

Section 11.6.1, "Check the Operating System Locale"

■

Section 11.6.2, "Check the NLS_LANG Setting"

11.6.1 Check the Operating System Locale

To make sure the default locale is set properly, verify that the LC_ALL or LANG
environment variables are set with the appropriate values. To check the current
setting, run the

locale

command:

prompt>

locale

11.6.2 Check the NLS_LANG Setting

To check the NLS_LANG setting:

Make sure the value of the NLS_LANG environment variable is compatible with
the default locale setting of the operating system. See the

Oracle Application Server

Globalization Guide

for details, including a list of files that set this variable. You

might need to edit the value of the NLS_LANG variable in these files.

Check that the NLS_LANG setting in the

ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml

file is identical to the NLS_LANG environment variable.

Example: The NLS_LANG setting in the

opmn.xml

file might look something like

this:

</environment>
