Not quite clear what you want to achieve this way. Anyway, there is no
need for a new module, mod_plsql is sufficient if I understood your task
right:
- user is authenticated (whatever means you use, be it .ht* files or else)
- PL/SQL procedure is called through mod_plsql and is given the URL as
varchar2 parameter. You can use mod_rewrite to rewrite the URL into
a PL/SQL call (after the authentication is passed). If the procedure finds
the URL, it just redirects to it, otherwise it prints an error page or whatever.
You are correct about replacing Oracle HTTP Server powered by Apache
with Apache itself - they are incompatible. Oracle-provided modules will
not work with generic Apache (and probably vice-versa). Oracle does not
provide the source code for their custom version so there is generally no
way to create a module for Oracle HTTP Server.
