Oracle B32100-01 - Manual (Page 37)

Ports
Requirements 2-13
■
If you specify the same port for one component on multiple lines, the installer
assigns the default port for the component. The installer does not warn you if you
have specified the same port on multiple lines.
■
If you have syntax errors in the staticports.ini file (for example, if you
omitted the = character for a line), the installer ignores the line. For the
components specified on such lines, the installer assigns the default ports. The
installer does not display a warning for lines with syntax errors.
■
If you misspell a component name, the installer assigns the default port for the
component. Names of components in the file are case sensitive. The installer does
not display a warning for lines with unrecognized names.
■
If you specify a non-numeric value for the port number, the installer ignores the
line and assigns the default port number for the component. It does this without
displaying any warning.
■
If you specify a relative path to the staticports.ini file (for example,
"./staticports.ini" or just "staticports.ini"), the installer will not find
the file. The installer continues without displaying a warning and it will assign
default ports to all components. You must specify a full path to the
staticports.ini
file.
2.5.3.3 Example
This example configures Oracle HTTP Server to use ports 80 and 443. Create a
staticports.ini
file that includes the following lines:
Oracle HTTP Server port = 80
Oracle HTTP Server Listen port = 80
Oracle HTTP Server SSL port = 443
Oracle HTTP Server Listen (SSL) port = 443
2.5.4 If Port 1521 Is in Use
The installer configures port 1521 for the OracleAS Metadata Repository listener
(version 10.1.0.3). This port cannot be changed through the staticports.ini file.
If port 1521 on your computer is already in use by an existing application, such as
Oracle database listener or some other application, you might have to take some action
before running the installer. See the following sections for details.
■
Section 2.5.4.1, "If Port 1521 Is In Use by an Existing Oracle Database"
■
Section 2.5.4.2, "If Port 1521 Is In Use by Some Other Application"
2.5.4.1 If Port 1521 Is In Use by an Existing Oracle Database
If you are installing a new database for the OracleAS Metadata Repository on a
computer that is already running an Oracle database, ensure that the listeners for both
databases do not conflict.
Note: If your computer has a listener that uses the IPC protocol
with the EXTPROC key, you should change the key to have some
other value. This is because the OracleAS Metadata Repository
listener requires access to the EXTPROC key.
