My PL/SQL Web Toolkit application is having issues logging out. The Apache/mod_plsql configuration had a "logmeoff" function that I could use to log out when using Apache HTTP. But now that I migrated to Tomcat/ORDS, the "logmeoff" function does not exist and I have not found a replacement (or method) to logout. Any ideas?

The issue is that I can never log out of the web application. And there are no errors reported. The session stays active.

From the Release Notes of ORDS (since v18)

Support For mod_plsql logmeoff

The mod_plsql logmeoff mechanism is not supported reliably by modern browsers and it is not provided by ORDS. The only way to end a HTTP Basic Authentication session is to close the Browser.

  • Or rewrite your app to make REST API calls instead, those are by definition, Stateless. Each and every call is a seff-contained transaction. – thatjeffsmith May 15 '23 at 12:44
