I have an application that uses Oracle Apex. We are just starting an

Oracle 11.2.0.3 on Red Hat 6 to Oracle 12.1.0.2 on Red Hat 7. Normally, I do
a data pump import across the network to migrate the Oracle schemas, but I've
been told that doesn't work for Apex. I need to preserve the Apex version at
4.01 until the application upgrade, then it will be upgraded to the current
version.
Is it true that I can't use Oracle data pump to copy Apex from one server to
another?
The correct answer is "it depends", of course. I suspect that if the
webserver is the builtin EPG and there are no external files (custom
images, CSS, etc), it *may* work. I'm not sure if APEX 4.x will work in
an Oracle 12.1 DB either. If possible, I would upgrade the APEX version
first, then migrate to another DB/server.
I've only attempted migrations by using the APEX export/import
application, but I'm using ORDS on Tomcat for the web and also external
files. As always, test, and YMMV.
