This topic explains how to create a WebLogic Server domain that can support
an application build with Workshop. The instructions below will
show you how to add the NetUI and Controls framework libraries,
the JMS queues required for message buffering, reliable messaging, and JMS
transport to a server domain.
This topic describes two cases for adding Workshop application
resources to a server domain:
Adding Workshop Resources to a
New Server Domain
If you are creating a new server domain, use these instructions to ensure
that the appropriate Workshop resources are present:
-
If you are using Windows, open the domain configuration wizard by selecting
Start > BEA Products > Tools > Configuration Wizard.
If you are using Linux, open the domain configuration wizard by running
BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/bin/config.sh.
-
In the BEA WebLogic Configuration Wizard, on the page
labeled Welcome, confirm that Create a new WebLogic
domain is selected. Click Next.
-
On the page labeled
Select Domain Source, select
Workshop
for WebLogic 10.2.
Click
Next.
This ensures that the domain is configured with the
appropriate libraries, JMS queues, and JDBC datasources.
Note that selecting
Workshop for WebLogic Platform,
will create a Workshop version 10.0 domain. See
Workshop
Domains Resources for details.

-
Complete the rest of the domain configuration wizard as appropriate.
Adding Workshop Resources
to an Existing Server Domain
If you are updating an previously existing domain, use these instructions
to ensure that the appropriate Workshop resources are present.
-
If you are using Windows, open the domain configuration wizard by
selecting Start > BEA Products > Tools > Configuration
Wizard.
If you are using Linux, open the domain configuration wizard by running
BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/bin/config.sh.
-
In the BEA WebLogic Configuration Wizard, on the
page labeled Welcome, select Extend and existing
WebLogic domain. Click Next.
-
On the page labeled Select WebLogic Domain Directory,
navigate to the root folder of your server domain.
Click Next.
- On the page labeled Select Extension Source, place
a checkmark next to Extend my domain using an existing extension
template.
Browse to the extension template at BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/templates/applications/workshop_wl.jar.
Click Next.
-
Complete the rest of the domain configuration wizard as appropriate.
For more information on completing the configuration wizard, see Creating
WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard in the WebLogic Server
documentation.
Workshop Domains
The Workshop for WebLogic 10.2 and Workshop for
WebLogic Platform domains are configured as follows:
-
Each domain contains a single WebLogic Server instance: the administration
server for the domain.
-
The default listen port is 7001.
-
A PointBase database is configured;
two data
sources are configured with the JNDI names cgDataSource and cgDataSource-nonXA.
- A JMS Server named WseeJmsServer is provided.
- An SAF agent named ReliableWseeSAFAgent is
provided.
- Numerous library modules are configured to support logging, Apache
Beehive, Java Server Pages, Java Server Faces, and Apache Struts.
The option Workshop for WebLogic 10.2 provides Workshop
version 10.2 libraries.
The option Workshop for WebLogic Platform provides Workshop
version 10.0 libraries.
For more configuration details on your domain see the main server configuration
file at DOMAIN_HOME/config/config.xml.
