An instance of an APEX listener is configured for a single instance of Oracle database.
If you need to support mulitple environments such as Dev and QA running on different instances of Oracle databases,
then the listener can easily be redeployed with a new context name.
This is what is required on a Tomcat server hosting Oracle APEX listener.
- Stop Tomcat
- Copy apex.war as myapex.war under tomcat/webapps(images need not be deployed for this instance as they will be served from original /i/ location)
- Copy tomcat/temp/apex as tomcat/temp/myapex
- Remove tomcat/temp/myapex/apex-config.xml
- Start tomcat
- Configure the new listener by opening http:/tomcat_server:port/myapex/listenerConfigure
