How to Install WebLogic 12C (12.1.1) on Mac
Oracle announced Weblogic 12c on Dec 1, 2011 and released WebLogic 12c for download yesterday. In today’s post I am going to cover installation of WebLogic 12c on Mac (Procedure on Linux is more or less same, JDK 1.6 must already be installed on machine)
.
High Level Steps to Install WebLogic 12c
- Download WebLogic Software on Mac Machine
- Set variable JAVA_HOME, MW_HOME, and USER_MEM_ARGS
- Unzip WebLogic software
- Configure WebLogic Server
- Create WebLogic Domain
- Start WebLogic Admin Server
1. Download Weblogic Software wls1211_dev.zip and extract to folder (/atul/oracle/weblogic/mw) – This directory is called Middleware Home (MW_HOME)
2. Set JAVA_HOME, MW_HOME, and USER_MEM_ARGS
export JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home
export MW_HOME=/atul/oracle/weblogic/mw
export USER_MEM_ARGS=”-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m”
Note: Change middleware home directory (MW_HOME) to directory in which you have unzipped WebLogic zip file
3. Configure Weblogic by running configure.sh
cd $MW_HOME
./configure.sh
4. Set WLS Environment file (setWLSEnv.sh)
. $MW_HOME/wlserver/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh
5. Create WebLogic Domain using GUI
$MW_HOME/wlserver/common/bin/config.sh
- On Welcome screen, select Create a new WebLogic Domain
- Follow domain creation screens
- On warning “CFGFWK – 60893: The selected JDK version doesn’t match the jdk version pattern” click OK
- On create domain screen, when progress bar reaches 100% note down Domain Location and Admin Server URL
Note: Directory /atul/oracle/weblogic/mw/user_projects/domains/base_domain is represented by variable $DOMAIN_HOME
6. Start WebLogic Domain
cd $DOMAIN_HOME/bin
./startWebLogic.sh
7. Access WebLogic Admin Server as http://hostname:admin_port/console
http://localhost:7001/console
.
8. Logon to WebLogic Console using user created during domain creation
Note: WebLogic 12c requires JDK 1.6 which comes by default with Mac
