"Our footprint" is a joint effort between the International Center for Sustainable Development (ICSD), the Imaginary Foundation and CAF-Development Bank of Latin America to create some space where companies, public entities, scientific and academic organizations and NGOs, sharing the common interest and willingness to reduce their environmental footprint and operational costs, improve the quality of life of people and make a sustainable use of the natural resources and ecosystems they depend on, could interact.
This Platform offers the opportunity to channel the increasing concern of companies, organizations and citizens about global climate change and environmental deterioration and turn it into concrete actions to reduce and offset the environmental footprint. Its purpose is to coordinate efforts and resources to develop projects with a high regional and 'glocal' (global + local) impact so that, in addition of generating environmental benefits, it could also bring about social and economic benefits to the communities where this is implemented, thus contributing to our countries' sustainable development.
The Platform is governed by a Board of Directors made up by outstanding personalities in their respective fields of competence, whose responsibility is to ensure the achievement of established goals by means of effective and transparent management.
Functional Structure
The Platform consists of different interrelated components, including a Portfolio of Participating Companies, a Portfolio of Projects, Technological Tools and a Public-Private Forum.
Executing Agencies
The executing agencies make up the basis of the Platform and their role is to maintain and supervise all the processes that may derive from it.
Portfolio of Companies
It is made up by all those organizations that have ratified their interest in being part of that space to reduce, mitigate and offset their environmental footprint, with the purpose of contributing to the sustainable development of our resources and planet Earth, thus improving their competitiveness.
Portfolio of Projects
It is the set of projects that have been approved by the Board of Directors prior to their inclusion in the Platform. They are classified into three different categories:
Ongoing mitigation and carbon sequestration projects.
Ongoing sustainable development projects.
Projects profiles
Public and Private Forum
A dynamic space to discuss and exchange ideas, knowledge and projects that contribute solutions for the sustainable use of resources and ecosystems based on the reduction of the environmental footprint, which facilitates the optimization of profits.
They provide technological support for the management, control and improvement of the processes that are part of the Platform
International Center for Sustainable Development (ICSD)
This international body was created to promote comprehensive management of knowledge for sustainable development. It was founded on April 11, 2005 at the initiative of the 'Fundación Ciudad del Saber', which was launched by the Government of Panama at the World Summit for Sustainable Development held in September of 2002 in Johannesburg, Republic of South Africa. The Executive Board of ICSD has its venue at 'Ciudad del Saber', in the Republic of Panamá. ICSD operates through an international strategic alliance made up by
academic, scientific, governmental, non-governmental, business and international organizations which work in a coordinated way through the entire system of production, dissemination and use of knowledge, and becomes a reference for decision-makers when it comes to designing and implementing sustainable programs and projects. It accumulates abundant knowledge about technical assistance and research projects; management capability and methodological contribution.

Imaginari Foundation
This is a non-profit organization based in the City of Panama which is made up by experienced professionals in several disciplines, namely humanities, technology, trade and economy. It also includes environmental specialists who have developed a commercial expertise in their own companies, which has allowed them to have a better understanding of the needs of companies and their difficulties in order to understand and learn how sustainability can improve their businesses, thus facilitating the dissemination of its message.
Based on that accumulated experience, the Foundation can work as an 'interface' between technical proposals and companies that discover or are interested in models of environmental sustainability, thus facilitating their understanding and adoption. It can also work as a 'catalyzer' that accelerates projects to mitigate and offset the environmental footprint, thus contributing to sustainable transformation of production.

The Cahaba Foundation, the Alabama Historical Commission, and the Cahawba Advisory Committee in partnership with Selma and Dallas County Chamber and Tourism Information broke ground for a new gated entrance to Old Cahawba Archaeological Park near Orrville on Monday, Sept. 25 at 5:30 p.m.
The event was held at the entrance of Old Cahawba, a historic property of the Alabama Historical Commission. Afterwards a multitude of local and statewide guests joined city and park officials to enjoy a "Taste and Toast" reception featuring specialty selections donated by some of the area's favorite restaurants.
A bronze plaque commemorating the Park's major donors was also unveiled inside the visitor's center.
The gated entrance will secure entry into the park afterhours. This project marks a significant milestone for the park's ongoing capital campaign. To date, the campaign, which was launched in 2008, has raised over $1,000,000, allowing the park to purchase those lots held in private ownership for the state, ensuring that they will be restored and preserved for archaeological study and public education and enjoyment.
Old Cahawba's new entrance is made possible through the generous contributions of corporations, charitable foundations and individuals across Alabama. Most recently, funding made available from the Ala-Tom Resource, Conservation and Development board has insured the completion of the construction and landscaping of this project in time to celebrate Alabama's Bicentennial and Old Cahawba's 200th birthday.
Old Cahawba Archaeological Park, a historic property of the Alabama Historical Commission, is located at the confluence of the Cahaba and Alabama Rivers and is one of the most significant historical and biological sites in Alabama.
Although best known as Alabama's first state capital from 1819 to 1826, Old Cahawba embraces a long history of multi-cultural inhabitants and settlements and is highly prized for its archaeological and historical merit. It was the home of some of Alabama's earliest inhabitants (16th century Native Americans known as the "Mississippians"), a thriving antebellum river town (one of the wealthiest towns in the country at the time), a Civil War military prison and a key post-Civil War site for the Radical Republican Party as the old deserted court house became a rallying point for freed slaves attempting to solidify the political gains they had secured during Reconstruction.
Thousands of visitors of all ages tour Old Cahawba each year, including locals who come to walk and ride bikes along the nature trails. School children from throughout the state and tourists from across the country are frequent visitors.

Created for outdoor aerial imaging, the CrystalSky high-brightness drone monitor features a screen that is clearly visible in sunlight.
The DJI CrystalSky 7.85" high brightness monitor uses optimized video decoding to decode video in real-time. Due to limitations in software access on smartphones and tablets, video decoding in other smart devices is less than ideal. When used to view photos or videos transmitted by the camera, problems can occur including video jitter, long latency and more. The DJI CrystalSky 7.85" high brightness monitor's optimized decoder provides smooth, real-time video with minimal latency.
A newly designed system removes unnecessary Android apps and services and is resistant to viruses and junk software. This ensures that the DJI CrystalSky 7.85" high brightness monitor is able to offer optimum performance at all times. Its embedded DJI GO/DJI GO 4 app provides full access to all DJI GO/DJI GO 4 features including aircraft parameter adjustment, camera control, footage management, and playback. Using offline maps, this rescue drone camera monitor keeps maps available even if going out of Wi-Fi reach.
Equipped with dual Micro SD Card slots, the DJI CrystalSky 7.85" high brightness monitor's storage can be extended, or footage recorded on a Micro SD Card can be played back directly on the monitor. This rescue drone camera monitor can also be used for footage backups.
Most smart devices are designed to operate in common temperature ranges. The DJI CrystalSky 7.85" high brightness monitor's external battery has been designed for more extreme temperatures. It is able to operate in as low as -4°F (-20°C) and, with its internal cooling system, functions normally in temperatures as high as 104°F (40°C).

Hiring an international student is easier than you think!
Hiring international students for internships and jobs is no more extensive than hiring a domestic student. No additional costs are involved, and employers do not need to complete any additional paperwork to be able to legally make a job offer.
International students bring a unique global perspective to complex issues, making them ideal assets to employers. They are adaptable, ready to take on challenges, are often multilingual, and possess multicultural skills that will help them excel in diverse workplaces.
What is the basic process for hiring an international student?
How many hours can a student intern/work?
Students must be registered for a full course load (except during their last semester) and can work up to 20 hours per week during fall and spring semesters. Students can work full time during the summer.
Students must obtain a work authorization through the Office of International Programs and Services. Work authorizations are only provided per academic term, and deadlines are applicable. Deadlines are generally aligned with add/drop course dates for fall and spring terms. Deadlines for summer work authorizations occur in mid-June.
Curricular Practical Training (CPT) work authorizations must be associated with academic programs on campus such as internship courses or the Cooperative Education (Co-op) Program.
How much paperwork / cost / time is required?
Mason students on F-1 Status apply for their own Employment Authorization Documents and pay their own fees. Mason graduates on J-1 Status are granted Academic Training to work for your company by the J Program Responsible Office or Alternate Responsible Officer at their school using your job offer letter.
If you are hiring student interns, you must complete your portion of the paperwork necessary for the student to obtain the needed work authorization from the Office of International Programs and Services. Employers are also asked to provide a mentor or supervisor, to provide work which is relevant to the student's major, and to participate in an evaluation of the student.
There is no extra cost to hire a Curricular Practical Training (CPT) candidate for an internship. Approval for a student's CPT internship can take up to 2-3 weeks from the date of paperwork submittal. Employers are required to complete an offer letter to the student as well as the employer sections on the CPT application form and the Co-op Work Agreement.
There is no additional cost involved to hire an Optional Practical Training (OPT) candidate for employment. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) processing time for OPT takes 30 to 90 days so students are encouraged to apply early.
Do international students need a Social Security Number?
Students working in an internship off campus should wait for their Social Security Number to be received in order to complete the I-9 employment paperwork before beginning work. On-campus employment (paid by GMU) is the only type of work students can begin without the Social Security Number in hand. In addition, they must have applied for the Social Security Number and have a receipt from the Social Security Office to complete the I-9 in the GMU HR process.
In some cases, international students working on campus or in an internship with an off campus employer will use their immigration form, passport, and I-94 to complete the I-9 with the employer. Mason's Office of International Programs and Services will grant work permission for internships.
Do I have to prove that no U.S. citizen was qualified?
Employers DO NOT need to certify that employment of the student prevented a qualified U.S. citizen from obtaining a position for Curricular Practical Training, Optional Practical Training, and H-1B positions. This is only a requirement when sponsoring for a green card.
If I hire an international student on Optional Practical Training, will I have to let them go after the 12 months are over?
Students who are STEM eligible can apply for an additional 24 months of OPT to work for your company if you are an E-Verify employer. This gives them a total of 36 months to work for you under OPT. You can apply for an H-1B Temporary Work Visa for your employee every Apr 1 (Cap Subject) to begin Oct 1.
Where do I find information on applying for a work visa for my employee?
Mason's Office of International Programs and Services (OIPS) hosts immigration attorneys four to six times per year to go over the work visa and green card options - all are invited! Check oips.gmu.edu for scheduled employment workshops.

The text of a 1997 Leaflet produced by The Natural Law Party for the Westminster Elections….
JAMES ANDERSON was born in 1951 and holds an honours degree in Physics from Queen's University, Belfast. After working in Astronomy for the Royal Observatory of Edinburgh he became a teacher of Transcendental Meditation. He is the Leader of the Natural Law Party of Northern Ireland and has worked on many projects promoting Natural Law programmes throughout Europe and the Far East. He is an established author and lecturer on the subject.
Natural Law Party programmes can bring an end to the troubles in Northern Ireland very rapidly, as shown by the findings of worldwide published research on conflict resolution. The research shows that the collective stress in Northern Ireland and the resulting bitterness and intransigence can be dramatically reduced by establishing a permanent group of at least 200 local people practising the technologies of consciousness and Natural Law on a daily basis.
The Natural Law Party views the source of conflict and distrust in Northern Ireland as lying deeper than race, religion, politics or paramilitary groups. The problem should be viewed not as Republicans fighting Loyalists or Protestants fighting Catholics, but rather as stress fighting stress. This will not be resolved by political talks alone – even with a change of government in London or Dublin.
The long-term build-up of stress in individual and collective conscious-ness has distorted the way people think and live. The result has been tension, fear and violence associated with rigid mind-sets and deep distrust. The International Body on Arms Decommissioning recognised this deeper nature of the problems in Northern Ireland and in Paragraph 15 of their internationally applauded report stated that: "What is really needed is the decommissioning of mind-sets in Northern Ireland." How to achieve this "decommission-ing of mind-sets" was the subject of the Natural Law Party's 75-page submission entitled "Decommission-ing the Potential for Conflict", presented to the International Body on 18 December 1995.
The submission detailed 42 research studies which have demonstrated that a technology of consciousness exists which is capable of dramatically reducing collective stress and social conflict and creating a coherent, orderly, relaxed and positive collective consciousness. The scientific research, backed by prominent scientists worldwide, has shown that this transformation could be achieved by a coherence-creating group of people practising Transcendental Meditation and Yogic Flying on a daily basis at one location in Northern Ireland.
As indicated by the research, the minimum size of the group should be about 200 people. Eventually, we would like to establish a permanent group of at least 1,000 Yogic Flyers, a sufficient number to create a unifying effect throughout the whole of Great Britain and both parts of Ireland, and ultimately a group of 7,000 Yogic Flyers, enough to create a positive effect world-wide. These larger groups will make the peace truly stable since the troubles are a result not only of tensions within Northern Ireland but of outside pressures and influences from many parts of the world.
A coherent, relaxed collective consciousness maintained on a daily basis by establishing a coherence-creating group will free narrow mind-sets and end violent conflict. Common sense will replace intransigence and bitterness as happened in Mozambique, where peace was established after nearly 30 years of dreadful civil war, through President Chissano's initiative to train coherence-creating groups within the military.
In the resulting atmosphere of increasing trust and goodwill, dialogue will open at all levels of society, not just between political parties. Effective all-party talks could then take place from which agreed structures would emerge for a legislative body for Northern Ireland. Structures to strengthen the relationship between the two parts of Ireland could also be agreed which would enhance rather than threaten the relationship between both parts of Ireland and Britain.
The Legislative Body should be elected by proportional repre-sentation. On convening, this body would elect an all-party cabinet which in turn would invite and appoint prominent successful people from Northern Ireland, those with the most relevant and established reputations, to head the various government departments. Ministers would delegate significant respon-sibility and authority for the management of the affairs of Northern Ireland to these prominent people. A similar system where ministers agree policy objectives but do not interfere in the day-to-day running of departments has already been successfully implemented in New Zealand.
If this comprehensive approach to the situation in Northern Ireland is adopted then the immense positive potential of all the people will unfold and a government in tune with Natural Law can be established, capable of fulfilling the positive aspirations of all sections of the community. Your vote can rescue the destiny of Northern Ireland from the repeated failures of the old parties.
In the Middle East: an International Peace Project resulted in very significant conflict resolu-tion, details of which were published in the prestigious Journal of Conflict Resolution in December 1988.
In Mozambique: in the 2 years since its evaluation and implemen-tation by the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Armed Forces the country has turned from a state of prolonged armed conflict to being one of the most peaceful and progressive nations in Africa (as reported in 1993 by the Commander of the armed forces, Lt. General Tobias Dai).
In the USA: A National Demonstration Project in Washington D.C. reduced violent crime by 20% and significantly improved govern-mental effectiveness (as reported by the Independent Project Review Board).
In the UK: A project in the Merseyside Metropolitan Area reduced crime by 60% compared to national trends over a 5 year period (published in Psychology, Crime and Law Vol. 2 number 3 1996).
From the 1997 General Election Maria Ní Dhomhnaill and Paul Campbell who were running for the Natural Law Party in Galway East and Galway West.
In Galway East Paul Campbell polled 98 votes whilst in Galway West Maria Ní Dhomhnaill polled 205 votes. They mention Yogic Flying as part of the solution to societies problems.
From the 1994 European Elections in the UK a Party Political Broadcast on behalf of the Natural Law Party. Includes some footage of Yogic Flyers!
John Burns of the Natural Law Party from the 1999 European Elections in Dublin and 1999 Local Elections in Pembroke. He polled poorly in both.
The Natural Law Party stopped fielding candidates in Ireland around 2000.
Martin McAneny listed as the "Natural Law Candidate for Dublin South East" , it was actually Dun Laoghaire where he stood in 1992 gaining a massive 48 votes.
Famously Paddy Seery of the NLP recieved 5 votes in the Birr Town Council elections of 1999, although had reached the grand total of 11 by the time he was eliminated.

Sunday, May 7, 1837.Springfield, IL.
Lincoln writes to a romantic interest, Mary S. Owens, of Kentucky, about whether or not they should marry. He writes, "I ... wish you would think seriously before you decide. . . . My opinion is that you had better not do it. You have not been accustomed to hardship, and it may be more severe than you now immagine." Lincoln adds, "Whatever woman may cast her lot with mine, should any ever do so, it is my intention to do all in my power to make her happy and contented; and there is nothing I can immagine, that would make me more unhappy than to fail in the effort." Abraham Lincoln to Mary S. Owens, 7 May 1837, CW, 1:78-79.

Eugene A. Klotz
2011 Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient
Swarthmore, Pennsylvania
Now retired from Swarthmore College, Gene Klotz continues to work with the Math Forum at Drexel University, living testimony to the fact that he has done more than influence the students he has taught over the last forty-seven years. He has inspired them to bring innovation and enthusiasm to their work-and beyond his own classroom, he has changed the technology of mathematics education. He was among the first to realize the potential of technology to support mathematics learning, and over the years his projects have incorporated the newest technology while looking ahead at emerging technology and its possibilities.
One result of that commitment to innovation was a project undertaken by Nicholas Jackiw, a Swarthmore student who was not even a mathematics major at the time. The result of his work-the Geometer's Sketchpad-is now one of the most widely used software programs in school mathematics.
In the early 1980s, Klotz used Atari computer graphics for trigonometry, and in 1986 he launched the multimedia Visual Geometry Project. To get people talking about geometry teaching, Klotz took advantage of early Internet technologies to establish the Geometry Forum. With the advent of the World Wide Web, his project expanded to the Math Forum, which has become the leading online resource for improving math learning, teaching, and communication. Ask Dr. Math, an advice feature of the website, has become so popular that four books have been based on the posted interactions.
Klotz's more recent projects include Math Tools, a library of technology tools, lessons, activities, and support materials, and his current project is Math Images, a website where users can find images related to mathematics and learn about the math behind them.
One nominator described Klotz's approach: "His method seems to be to collect a combustible leaf pile of talent; to ignite it with a combination of provocative ideas, problems, and fascinating playthings; to fan it with daily stimulation, expert advice only when needed, constant humor…; and then, somehow, rather than let it consume itself or burn out, to connect it to a renewable or even expanding energy source, while he himself steps back, brushes off his hands, and begins casting his eye out for new tinder."
Klotz's accomplishments include involvement in NCTM's Electronic Resources Committee and Figure This! Advisory Panel. Klotz has also served on numerous task forces and writing groups for the Mathematical Association of America.

"I couldn't agree with you more about the cell phone/driving situation. So many accidents and deaths have been caused since the addition of the cell phone to the car. It is a problem. I have my cell phone in the car for emergencies only. Luckily, I haven't had to use it for an emergency. The battery usually dies out from non-use. But I realize I am one of few "Ladies" who do not walk, talk, AND use the restroom while talking on the cell phone ... yes, it's true. "Oh, let me tell you what happened today..." FLUSH. ... Please tell me you are not the 'gentleman' that is so self-important and so impatient that you cannot tolerate a momentary lapse of instant gratification. "Green light! GO!" HONK , "Turn woman, turn!" HONK, "Move, get outta my way!" HONK. Sounds almost as disgusting and annoying as "Uh, huh..." FLUSH.
Ad again: I regret to say that that is EXACTLY what I am yelling in the car. Almost word for word. I have suffered from road rage ever since I began driving. I'm thinking some of it comes from growing up in small town of 3,500 people where EVERYTHING was within a 2-minute drive and, thus, I have no patience for being in a car longer than a few minutes. That's my excuse.
I am, however, starting to mellow a little.
Thanks for the mirror, dear reader in Georgia. I will strive to improve.


The greenback has come under pressure during the North American trade, with the Dow Jones-FXCM U.S. Dollar Index slipping to a fresh weekly low of 9,924, and the reserve currency may extend the decline carried over from the previous week as it threatens the upward trending channel from earlier this year.
The Dow Jones-FXCM U.S. Dollar Index (Ticker: USDollar) is 0.12 percent lower from the open after moving 70 percent of its average true range, and we may see the reserve currency track lower over the remainder of the week as it trades back within the downward trending channel from the beginning of the month. However, we will be closely watching the 30-minute relative strength index over the next 24-hours of trading as there appears to be a bullish divergence in the oscillator, and the technical development certainly foreshadows a short-term rebound for the index, which should preserve support around 9,900. In turn, we may see the dollar regain its footing going into the middle of the week, but risk-trends are expected to dictate price action for the greenback as the economic docket remains fairly light over the coming days.
As the USDOLLAR struggles to hold above the 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement around 9,949, the index appears to be threatening the upward trending channel from earlier this year, but we will maintain our bullish call on the reserve currency as long as 9,900 holds up. Indeed, the daily RSI paints a bearish outlook for the greenback as the downward trend continues to take shape, and we may see the dollar fall back towards the 50.0 Fib around 9,830 should the divergence continue to play out. As the G20 meeting in Washington comes into focus, the rise in market sentiment may gather pace over the coming days, and we may see market participants continue to move away for the reserve currency as global policy makers pledge to increase their efforts in addressing the risks surrounding the world economy. However, the group may struggle to meet on common ground as the euro-area seeks additional assistance from the global community, and we may see market participants scale back their appetite for risk should world officials fail to instill an improved outlook for the world economy.
Two of the four components advanced against the greenback, led by a 0.46 percent rally in the Australian dollar, which was following by a 0.19 percent gain in the British Pound. Indeed, the sterling extended the advance from earlier this month as sticky price pressures in the U.K. dampens speculation for more quantitative easing, and we may see the Bank of England Minutes push the exchange rate higher as the central bank continues to soften its dovish tone for monetary policy. Indeed, the shift in the policy outlook should prop up the sterling going forward, and the GBPUSD looks poised to mark fresh highs for 2012 as the upward trending channel continues to take shape. In turn, we anticipate to see the pound-dollar to make a run at the 23.6 percent Fib from the 2009 low to high around 1.6250, and we may see the sterling outperform against its major currency counterparts as BoE officials anticipate to see a stronger recovery later this year.


This chapter serves as an introduction to the Oracle HTTP Server (OHS). It describes key features of OHS and its place within the Oracle Fusion Middleware Web Tier and also provides information on the OHS directory structure, the OHS configuration files, and how to obtain OHS support.

1.1 What is Oracle HTTP Server?
HTTP listener, to handle incoming requests and route them to the appropriate processing utility.
Modules (mods), to implement and extend the basic functionality of Oracle HTTP Server. Many of the standard Apache HTTP Server modules are included with Oracle HTTP Server. Oracle also includes several modules that are specific to Oracle Fusion Middleware to support integration between Oracle HTTP Server and other Oracle Fusion Middleware components.
Perl interpreter, a persistent Perl runtime environment embedded in Oracle HTTP Server through mod_perl.
Oracle HTTP Server can also be a proxy server, both forward and reverse. A reverse proxy enables content served by different servers to appear as if coming from one server.
For more information about Fusion Middleware concepts, see Understanding Oracle Fusion Middleware.
Oracle HTTP Server leverages the WebLogic Management Framework to provide a simple, consistent and distributed environment for administering Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle WebLogic Server, and the rest of the Fusion Middleware stack. It acts as the HTTP front-end by hosting the static content from within and by leveraging its built-in Oracle WebLogic Server Proxy Plug-In 12.1.3 to route dynamic content requests to WebLogic-managed servers. In such cases, there are multiple ways of implementing Oracle HTTP Server, depending on your requirements. Table 1-1 describes the major implementations, or "topologies".
This topology provides enhanced management capabilities through the Fusion Middleware Control and WebLogic Management Framework. A WebLogic Server domain can be scaled out to multiple physical machines and be centrally managed by the administration server. This topology is depicted in Figure 1-1.
See "Standard Installation Topology for Oracle HTTP Server in a WebLogic Server Domain" in Installing and Configuring Oracle HTTP Server.
This topology is similar to an Oracle WebLogic Server Domain topology, but does not provide an administration server or managed servers. It is useful when you do not want your Oracle HTTP Server implementation to front a Fusion Middleware domain and do not need the management functionality provided by Fusion Middleware Control. This topology is depicted in Figure 1-2.
See "Standard Installation Topology for Oracle HTTP Server in a Standalone Domain" in Installing and Configuring Oracle HTTP Server.
This topology provides a highly available Oracle Fusion Middleware deployment where each pair of components (Oracle HTTP Server and Web Logic Managed Servers) exist on different host computers. You access the system from the client tier and requests are routed, by using a load balancer, to Web servers running Oracle HTTP Servers in the web tier. This topology is depicted in Figure 1-1.
See "Understanding the Oracle Fusion Middleware Standard HA Topology" in the High Availability Guide.
This topology provides a single machine WebLogic Server Domain with an Oracle HTTP Server instance and is geared toward testing. It provides all the administrative capabilities of a full production domain but does not require an external database. The test domain cannot be scaled out to other machines and is not certified to be used in production.
See "createOHSTestDomain()" in the WLST Command Reference for Infrastructure Components.
Section 1.3.1, "Oracle WebLogic Server Proxy Plug-In (mod_wl_ohs)"
Section 1.3.4, "URL Rewriting and Proxy Server Capabilities"
Section 1.3.5, "CGI and FastCGI"
The Oracle WebLogic Server Proxy Plug-In (mod_wl_ohs) enables requests to be proxied from Oracle HTTP Server 12c (12.1.3) to Oracle WebLogic Server. This plug-in enhances an Oracle HTTP server installation by allowing Oracle WebLogic Server to handle requests that require dynamic functionality. In other words, you typically use a plug-in where the HTTP server serves static pages such as HTML pages, while Oracle WebLogic Server serves dynamic pages such as HTTP Servlets and Java Server Pages (JSPs).
mod_plsql connects Oracle HTTP Server to an Oracle database, enabling you to create Web applications by using Oracle stored procedures. For more information on mod_plsql, see Section 2.8, "mod_plsql".
mod_ossl, the Oracle Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) implementation in use with the Oracle database, enables strong cryptography for Oracle HTTP Server. It is a plug-in to Oracle HTTP Server that enables the server to use SSL and is very similar to the OpenSSL module, mod_ssl. mod_ossl supports TLS version 1.1 and 1.2..
SSL hardware acceleration support uses dedicated hardware for SSL. Hardware encryption is faster than software encryption.
Variable security per directory allows individual directories to be protected by different strength encryption.
Oracle HTTP Server and Oracle WebLogic Server communicate using the HTTP protocol to provide both encryption and authentication. You can also enable HTTP tunneling for the T3 or IIOP protocols to provide non-browser clients access to WebLogic Server services.
WebGate enables single sign-on (SSO) for Oracle HTTP Server. WebGate examines incoming requests and determines whether the requested resource is protected, and if so, retrieves the session information for the user. Through WebGate, Oracle HTTP Server becomes an SSO partner application enabled to use SSO to authenticate users, obtain their identity by using Oracle Single Sign-On, and to make user identities available to web applications accessed through Oracle HTTP Server.
Active websites usually update their web pages and directory contents often, and possibly their URLs as well. Oracle HTTP Server makes it easy to accommodate the changes by including an engine that supports URL rewriting so end users do not have to change their bookmarks.
Oracle HTTP Server also supports reverse proxy capabilities, making it easier to make content served by different servers to appear from one single server.
CGI programs are commonly used to program Web applications. Oracle HTTP Server enhances the programs by providing a mechanism to keep them active beyond the request lifecycle.
You can install Oracle HTTP Server either collocated with Oracle WebLogic Server, called a WebLogic Server Domain or as a standalone domain. You can select which environment you want to use during server configuration. Be aware that certain functionality will not be available to standalone domains.
A WebLogic Server Domain is one configured with an administration server and managed servers. A WebLogic Server Domain contains a WebLogic Administration Server, zero or more WebLogic Managed Servers, and zero or more System Component Instances (for example, an Oracle HTTP Server instance). This type of domain provides enhanced management capabilities through the Fusion Middleware Control and WebLogic Management Framework present throughout the system. A WebLogic Server Domain can span multiple physical machines, and it is centrally managed by the administration server. Because of these properties, a WebLogic Server Domain provides the best integration between your System Components and Java EE Components.
WebLogic Server Domains support all WebLogic Management Framework tools.
Because Fusion Middleware Control provides advanced management capabilities, Oracle recommends using WebLogic Server Domain, which requires installing a complete Fusion Middleware infrastructure before you install Oracle HTTP Server.
For more information on installing a WebLogic Server Domain, see Installing and Configuring the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure.
For information on installing Oracle HTTP Server either as part of a Fusion Middleware infrastructure or as standalone component, see Installing and Configuring Oracle HTTP Server.
A standalone domain is a container for system components, such as Oracle HTTP Server. It has a directory structure similar to an Oracle WebLogic Server Domain, but it does not contain an Administration Server or Managed Servers. It can contain one or more instances of system components of the same type, such as Oracle HTTP Server, or a mix of system component types.
For a complete list of supported WLST Node Manager commands, see "Node Manager Commands" in "WLST Command Reference for WebLogic Server".
If you have a remote Oracle HTTP Server in a managed mode and another in standalone with the remote administration mode enabled, you can use WLST to perform management tasks such as SSL configuration. A vanilla Oracle HTTP Server in a standalone domain can be used only as a WebLogic Server Node Manager and for Oracle HTTP Server start/stop purposes. You can also do this by using a command-line script.
Generally, you would use a standalone domain when you do not want your Oracle HTTP Server implementation installed with a WebLogic Server domain and do not need the management functionality provided by Fusion Middleware Control. Nor would you use it when you want to keep Oracle HTTP Server in a "demilitarized zone" (DMZ; that is, the zone between the internal and external firewalls) and you do not want to open management ports used by Node Manager.
As described in Section 1.4, "Domain Types", Oracle HTTP Server domains can be either WebLogic Server or standalone. When installed, each domain has its own directory structure that contains files necessary to implement the domain type. For a complete file structure topology, see Appendix A "Understanding the Oracle HTTP Server Directory Structures" in Installing and Configuring Oracle HTTP Server.
The Oracle HTTP Server configuration is specified through configuration files of several types, notably .conf files, similar to those used in Apache HTTP Server. This section explains the layout of the configuration file directories, mechanisms for editing the files, and more about the files themselves.
Each of the configuration directories will contain the complete OHS configuration -- httpd.conf, admin.conf, auditconfig.xml, and so on.
Before making any changes to files in the staging directory, stop the Administration Server.
Modifications are replicated to the run-time directory on the node with the managed OHS instance after changes are activated from within Fusion Middleware Control, or when the administration server initializes and prior changes need to be replicated. If communication with node manager is broken at the time of the action, replication will occur at a later time when communication has been restored.
Modifications are synchronized with the run-time directory when a start, restart, or stop action is initiated. Some changes might be written to the run-time directory during domain update, but the changes will be finalized during synchronization.
Any modifications to the configuration within the run-time directory will be lost during replication or synchronization.
When a standalone instance is created, the keystores directory containing a demo wallet is created only in the run-time directory.
Before creating the first new wallet for the instance, you must create a keystores directory within the staging directory.
Wallets must then be created within that keystores directory.
The default Oracle HTTP Server configuration contains the files described in Appendix D, "Configuration Files".
The default configuration provides an Include directive which includes all .conf files in the moduleconf/ directory within the configuration.
An Include directive should be added to an existing .conf file, usually httpd.conf, for .conf files which are not stored in the moduleconf/ directory. This may be required if the new .conf file must be included at a different configuration scope, such as within an existing virtual host definition.
Fusion Middleware Control and other Oracle software that manage the Oracle HTTP Server configuration might save these files in a different, equivalent format. After using the software to make a configuration change, multiple configuration files might be rewritten.
For instances that are part of a WebLogic Server Domain, Fusion Middleware Control and the management infrastructure manages the Oracle HTTP Server configuration. Direct editing of the configuration in the staging directory is subject to being overwritten after subsequent management operations, including modifying the configuration in Fusion Middleware Control. For such instances, direct editing should only be performed when the administration server is stopped. When the administration server is subsequently started (and with started), the results of any manual edits will be replicated to the run-time directory on the node of the managed instance.
For standalone instances, the configuration can be edited directly within the staging directory at any time. The configuration will be activated during start, restart, or stop. As with a WebLogic domain, whenever you modify a file that resides in the staging directory, you must first stop the administration server.
Select Administration from the HTTP Server menu.
Select Advanced Configuration from the Administration menu item. The Advanced Server Configuration page appears.
Select the configuration file from the list, such as the httpd.conf file.
Edit the file, as needed.
Review the settings. If the settings are correct, click Apply to apply the changes. If the settings are incorrect, or you decide to not apply the changes, click Revert to return to the original settings.
Restart Oracle HTTP Server as described in Section 4.3.4, "Restarting Oracle HTTP Server Instances".
The file is saved and shown on the Advanced Server Configuration page.
Modules included in the Oracle distribution. Oracle does not support modules obtained from any other source, including the Apache Software Foundation. Oracle HTTP Server will still be supported when non-Oracle-provided modules are included. If non-Oracle-provided modules are suspect of contributing to reported problems, customers may be requested to reproduce the problems without including those modules.
Problems that can be reproduced within an Oracle HTTP Server configuration consisting only of supported Oracle HTTP Server modules.
Use of the included Perl interpreter with the supported Oracle HTTP Server configuration.
