ORDS - 404 Not Found

"The request could not be mapped to any database. Check the request URL is correct, and that URL to database mappings have been correctly configured."

When I hit the url http://<IP Address>:7001/ords/, I was getting the above error after installing ORDS and deploying it in Weblogic 14.1, and trying to access the APEX login page.

Here my ORDS version was 22.4.

Below is the screenshot for the reference.

The reason behind this error is ORDS war is deployed on Weblogic and it doesn't know where the system property of configured directory location.

to set the system property of configuration URL, we need to specify the same in the JAVA_OPTIONS parameter. Follow the following steps,

Prerequisites - Stop Weblogic server (Managed server if any and Admin Server). Just to share that in my case I was not having managed server.

Step 1 : export JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dconfig.url=/u01/ORDS/conf"

Above path is my ORDS conf file, this given while installing the ORDS.

Step 2 : Start weblogic, Admin Server and Managed Server if any.

Refresh or run again the url http://<IP Address>:7001/ords/

And you will get the login page of APEX. This is it.
