Does Oracle9iAS include a database server?

I just installed an Oracle9iAS Enterprise Edition Release 2 (9.0.2) on Windows 2000 server. I ran the SQL*Plus and could login successfully with scott/tiger account.

Thanks for any information.

Even on 9i DATABASE this account is disabled I suppose that on 9iAS it's absent at all. What error do you obtain? It's quite inaccurate to check database existance by attempting to connect as some optional sample user.

I "could login successfully" with scott/tiger account. There was no error.

My question was "Does Oracle9iAS include a database server?"

More confusion, I installed Oracle9i (9.2.0) on a separate machine (Windows 2000 server), and saw an apache server in it!

Thanks for the response.

No confusion: since 8i Oracle Database server distributive includes preconfigured Apache with JServ servlet container and some Apache modules, so it's ready for creating web-enabled sites. You may be even more surprised by that Oracle database may be launched with servlet container within database
9iAS is for complex enterprise-wide J2EE (read EJB) projects.

Does that mean I don't need 9i CD's to install 9iAS? Since 9iAS can work on J2EE and also includes 9i database server. Thanks
