If you have just installed Oracle Workflow or Oracle Workflow middle-tier components, then you need to restart Oracle HTTP Server before you can use these components.
ou can use the following commands to start, stop, and restart Oracle HTTP Server:
To start Oracle HTTP Server:
$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startproc ias-component=HTTP_Server
To restart Oracle HTTP Server:
$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl restartproc ias-component=HTTP_Server
To stop Oracle HTTP Server:
$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl stopproc ias-component=HTTP_Server
To log in to Oracle HTTP Server, in a browser, enter a URL similar to the following:
http://server:port/
In this URL format:
server
is the computer on which you have installed Oracle HTTP Server, for example, mycomputer.us.mycompany.com
.
port
is the port number assigned to Oracle HTTP Server. In a default installation, this number is 7777

http://hostname:port/pls/database_access_descriptor/htmldb_admin
In this URL format:
hostname
is the name of the system on which Oracle HTTP Server is installed.
port
is the port number assigned to Oracle HTTP Server. In a default installation, this number is 7777. You can find information about the port number of your Oracle HTTP Server installation from either of the following files:
$ORACLE_HOME/install/portlist.ini
$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf

In the Password field, enter the Oracle HTML DB administrator account password that you specified when you installed Oracle HTML DB.
Click Login. The Oracle HTML DB Administration Service page is displayed.
If you are an Oracle HTML DB administrator, then you need to:
Log in to Oracle HTML DB Administration Services: Oracle HTML DB Administration Services is a separate application for managing an entire Oracle HTML DB instance.
Specify a provisioning mode: In Oracle HTML DB Administration Services, you need to determine how the process of creating (or provisioning) a workspace will work in your development environment.
Create a Workspace: A workspace is a shared work area within the Oracle HTML DB development environment that has a unique ID and name. An Oracle HTML DB administrator can create a workspace manually or have users submit requests.

$ORACLE_HOME/oc4j/j2ee/deploy_db_wf.ini
if you are not sure about which server and port number to useThe Oracle Workflow Server installation includes the Oracle Workflow Manager component of Oracle Enterprise Manager. This component provides administrative and management tools for Oracle Workflow. When you install Oracle Workflow in your Oracle Database home, Oracle Workflow Configuration Assistant configures Oracle Workflow Manager. It creates two Oracle Application Server Containers for Java 2 Enterprise Edition (OC4J) instances:
OC4J_Workflow_Component_Container: Oracle Workflow Configuration Assistant deploys two applications within this instance. One application runs the agent listener service components and the other runs notification mailer service components.
OC4J_Workflow_Management_Container: Oracle Workflow Configuration Assistant deploys one application within this instance to implement the Oracle Workflow Manager user interface.
Starting, Stopping, or Restarting the OC4J Instances
To start the OC4J instances, run the following scripts:
$ORACLE_HOME/wf/admin/wfmgrstart.csh $ORACLE_HOME/wf/admin/wfsvcstart.csh
You can stop and restart the OC4J instances in which Oracle Workflow Manager is deployed. To stop the instances, run the following scripts:
$ORACLE_HOME/wf/admin/wfmgrstop.csh $ORACLE_HOME/wf/admin/wfsvcstop.csh
Accessing the Oracle Workflow Manager User Instance
To access the Oracle Workflow Manager user interface:
Log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control by using a URL such as the following:
http://server:port/em
For example:
http://myserver.mycompany:5500/em
On the Home page, navigate to the Related Links section.
In the Related Links section, select Workflow Manager.
Log in using your Oracle Workflow database user name (typically, owf_mgr
) and password.
