Issue:

A report server is generating and storing PDF Reports on the application server. Those reports should be accessible from OHS via a custom URL. Changes were made involving switching the default OHS port to 7777 and adding a virtual host to run on port 33333 which has a document root of “/app/dev1_rpt/vsd/”. PDFs display properly on port 33333 but not 7777.

Cause:

Port 7777’s document root is different than port 33333. But 7777’s document root should not be changed, instead an alias should be added.

Resolution:

The following is an example for setting up an alias “/reps/” against an absolute directory “C:\oracle\reps/”

Alias /reps/ “C:\oracle\reps/”

<Directory “C:\oracle\reps/”>
Allow from all
</Directory>
