Re: Oracle Web Application Server 3.0.1 & IIS 4.0

Boy do I sympathise with you. I also get the "The request did not specify a valid virtual host." message as well. Also I have noticed that others in this Newsgroup have been getting this message as well. I only get it when I access my NT machine (OWAS 3.01 / Oracle Listener / Oracle 8.0.4) from other machines on the network.

I think you may have hit on something though, because we have a Microsoft IIs v 3 Webserver on another machine that is on the network. Maybe the Microsoft Webserver interferes in some way with the oracle webserver. Mmmm.... I may temporarily get that Microsoft webserver shutdown and see if that makes a difference.

Hopefully somebody can give us the answer soon !!!!!!!!!!

Cheers.
