Re: A DBA looks at OAS

Robert,

Just use the iAS (Apache) webserver that comes with 8i and up. Really configurable, as simple or complex as you want it to be. With the various mod_ plugins, you can be serving up stuff in no time.

Folks,

I'm a DBA who is really an old developer at heart. I know a little Java, a little Asp
(enough, as they say, to be really dangerous!), I used to do C code that
now
makes
my head swim to look at. (I think to myself, what the devil was I doing??)

Anyway, I've finally found some time and a machine here at work to start playing with
OAS just to see what it's all about. Anyone have any good suggestions with regards
to:

1. Sites, books, white papers and the like with good install tips, hints, warnings and the like.
2. Sites, books, white papers and the like Quick getting started tips.
3. Your own "getting started" experiences of things to do or not to do.
4. Anything I should do before I mess with OAS.

Optimistically hopeful that this will all just go really smooth and I'll have a cool
web page that I can bring up soon!
