You won't like this, so I'll give it a fancy name: "mechanical means" aka "the sweat of your brow". Scouring powder or soap applied to the oven's surfaces by means of steel wool in your two hands encased in sturdy rubber or nitrile utility gloves. Most ovens warn against using steel wool or other abrasives because these will scratch the surface and make the oven even harder to clean next time, as byproducts of cooking get caught in the scratches. You can start off using Bon Ami, Soft Scrub or a nylon scrubbie pad that is nonabrasive, and this may work if the oven is in good shape and the surface is not already scratched. Baking soda can be used as a scratch-free scouring powder, again only if the oven is not in too bad shape.
You can make the job easier by working on an oven that is just a little warm--not to the point of yad soledet bo--which will soften the grease somewhat. You can also soften grease by plugging up the ventilation holes in the oven, placing a dish of plain ammonia in the oven and letting it sit there overnight. Don't do this if you have young children around.
After scrubbing to your satisfaction, you must rinse, rinse, rinse with clear water to get rid of the soap or scouring powder residue.
Unplug the stove before you begin

I have a self clean oven but I don't like running the clean cycle on a dirty oven so I clean it first. I can get it mostly clean by pouring boiling water on the dirty areas and then just scrub it.
I've found the boiling water is the only thing that gets the glass door clean. It also helps if it's done regularly so the dirt doesn't build up.

before pesach I ran out of oven cleaner and used a mix of baking soda, vinegar and hot water. I made it in to a thick paste and spread on then rubbed. It really worked!

Baking soda works great for the burnt-on stuff. Mix with dish soap if you need to cut grease. I was amazed at how well rubbing with a baking soda paste got off spots that I thought would never come off

another recommendation for baking soda. Sprinkle generously on floor of oven, pour some hot water over it (as another poster said be sure you have unplugged it beforehand!), let sit a few minutes, then scrub all over the oven with it, it works very well.

pour baking soda all over the oven, pour some vinegar and/or peroxide on the baking soda. let it foam and bubble and all that. spread it all around. leave it over night, or at least a few hours. scrub.
I never tried adding dish soap, that's a good idea, Juggling!

Everything is made of chemicals, including us.
