Customize XML Database

XML Database provides HTTP, FTP and WebDAV protocol servers as a part of the database. These servers will be available for client access as soon as the database starts up. XML Database protocol servers are implemented using the Oracle shared server infrastructure. By default, these protocols are enabled.

Enable XML Database Protocols

This is the default option. It will allow protocol clients to connect to the machine on which the database instance is active.

Disable XML Database Protocols

This option disallows any client connections to the XML Database protocols.

Use Default Values

This option will set the protocol servers for the default protocol ports. The default port for FTP is 2100 and the default for TTP and WebDAV is 8080.

Specify Custom Values

This option allows the user to override the default ports for XML Database protocols. Ports can be set to any positive value. If these values represent protected ports (less than 1000 on some platforms), the database listener will be required to run as root.

Please see the platform specific documentation on how to do it. On Unix platforms, it usually means changing the owner of listener executable to root and defining the setuid bit on the file.
