Re: Oracle Workflow

I have experience on installing Oracle Workflow (OWF) using either OAS 4.0 or WebDB 2.1.
Installation of OWF server is indeed not trivial. But you can achieve it.

OWF server standalone installation for WebDB is nearly completely described in the installation documentation and consists in:

• installation of the PL/SQL toolkit (packages htp, htp, owa_*, ...) under predefined schemas (OAS_PUBLIC and WEBSYS schemas)
• installation of OWF objects (packages, tables, views, ...) in a specific schema
• configuration of a DAD in WebDB
• extra configurations stuffs: OWF directory, grants, synonyms, OWF resources, ...

You should achieve it.
I may help you I you have precise questions.
