Oracle Application Express administrators are responsible for managing an entire Oracle Application Express instance. To perform these tasks, an Oracle Application Express administrator logs into the Oracle Application Express Administration Services application.

To log in to Oracle Application Express Administration Services:

1. In a Web browser, navigate to the Oracle Application Express Administration Services application:

   http://hostname:port/pls/apex/apex_admin
   
   

   Where:

   • hostname is the name of the system where 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 your Oracle HTTP Server installation's port number from either of the following files:

     • ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\install\portlist.ini

     • ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache\conf\httpd.conf

   • pls is the indicator to use the mod_plsql cartridge

   • apex is the database access descriptor (DAD) defined in the mod_plsql configuration file.

     For users who have upgraded from earlier releases, or who have a custom configuration, this value may be htmldb or something else. Verify your DAD with your Oracle Application Express administrator.

   The Login page appears.

2. In Username, enter admin.

3. In Password, enter the Oracle Application Express administrator account password you specified when you installed Oracle Application Express.

4. Click Login.

   Oracle Application Express Administration Services appears.
