This isn't really a programming question, but more of a systems administration one. It's specific to Oracle's Application Server product, which has many names -- e.g. OAS, iAS, OHS, Oracle HTTP Server, etc. Basically it's just a hacked version of Apache with a bunch of extensions for Oracle-specific things.
After struggling for several days to install and configure the admin server (known as OPMN), I can get it started and I can establish a secure connection to it from a browser. However, all it ever does is return blank pages. The logs show these errors:
[2009-09-09T18:10:33][opmn][ERROR:1][82][OPMN][code:ons-messages]Connection 1b,[my computer's ip address (redacted)],6701 socket data stream is out of sync
[2009-09-09T18:10:33][opmn][ERROR:1][58][OPMN][code:ons-connect]Passive connection 1b,[my computer's ip address (redacted)],6701 missing connect
The errors are repeated over and over, in pairs, one pair for each attempted request by my browser.
People on the Oracle forums have tried to help too (see this and this), but it seems we're all pretty much stumped, so any help you could provide would be much appreciated. I'm sure there are few Oracle experts lurking here. . . .
Thanks!
