Fix Recommendation

1. Open $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/<componentName>/httpd.conf and every.conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in it with an editor.
2. Search for the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive at the OHS server and virtual host configuration scopes.
3. Set the "<Directory>" directive to "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"", add the directive if it does not exist.
4a. Within the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive, set the "AllowOverride" directive to "None", add the directive if it does not exist.
4b. Within the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive, set the "Options" directive to "None", add the directive if it does not exist.
4c. Within the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive, set the "Order" directive to "allow, deny", add the directive if it does not exist.
4d. Within the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive, set the "Allow" directive to "from all", add the directive if it does not exist.
4e. Within the "<Directory> "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive, set the "<LimitExcept>" directive to "GET POST", add the directive if it does not exist.
4e1. Within the "<LimitExcept GET POST>" directive, set the "Deny" directive to "from all", add the directive if it does not exist.

Check Contents

1. Open $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/<componentName>/httpd.conf and every.conf file (e.g., ssl.conf) included in it with an editor.
2. Search for the "Directory "${ORACLE_INSTANCE}/config/fmwconfig/components/${COMPONENT_TYPE}/instances/${COMPONENT_NAME}/error"" directive at the OHS server and virtual host configuration scopes.
3. If the directive is omitted, this is a finding.
4. Validate that the folder where the directive is pointing is valid. If the folder is not valid, this is a finding.
