14-1. Running a PL/SQL Procedure on the Web
Problem
You'd like to make your PL/SQL procedures accessible to users in a web browser via the Oracle Application Server.
Solution
To run a PL/SQL procedure on the Web, you must first configure a Data Access Descriptor (DAD) within the Oracle Application Server to define the connection information required between mod_plsql within the Oracle Application Server and the Oracle database that holds the PL/SQL procedures you wish to run. In this example the mod_plsql configuration file dads.conf (located in [Oracle_Home]\Apache\ modplsql\conf) is edited to define the DAD.
