- If a "View Source" is done on the MarkView Viewer Control Window, you will see that the URLs that are referenced do not have the fully-qualified hostname.
Known Causes
- One possible problem is that the iAS that is housing the PL/SQL DAD does not have its httpd.conf file setup with the fully-qualified hostname.
Resolution
- Locate the file - $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf and make sure that the entry for "ServerName" has the fully-qualified hostname. After making this change, stop and start the Apache listener and retry the operation.
