And I actually wondered for a short moment whether there is any DBMS with a web server.
I don't know if it's still the case or not, but Oracle had the option to run a web-server as part of the database at one time. Back in the Oracle 8 or Oracle 9 era, as best as I can remember.
EDIT:
OK, here we go.

You can use an embedded version of the PL/SQL gateway that runs in the XML DB HTTP Listener in the database. It provides the core features of mod_plsql in the database but does not require the Oracle HTTP Server. You configure the embedded PL/SQL gateway with the DBMS_EPG package in the PL/SQL Web Toolkit.
Some advantages of using the embedded gateway instead of mod_plsql are:
You can invoke PL/SQL web applications like Application Express without installing Oracle HTTP Server, thereby simplifying installation, configuration, and administration of PL/SQL based web applications.
