This chapter describes how to configure Application Developer and create or extend a WebLogic Domain after the software has already been installed and patched to the latest version.
The following topics are covered:
After the installation is complete, you can configure the components using the Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard. The instructions in this section describe how to do so.
This section contains the following conent:
The Configuration Wizard is located in the MW_HOME
/oracle_common/common/bin
(on UNIX operating systems) or MW_HOME
\oracle_common\common\bin
(on Windows operating systems) directory. Go to this directory, then run the config.sh
(on UNIX operating systems) or config.cmd
(on Windows operating systems) script to start the Configuration Wizard:
On UNIX operating systems:
./config.sh
On Windows operating systems:
config.cmd
If this is a new installation and you need to create a new WebLogic domain, follow the instructions in Section 2.1.3, "Creating a New Domain". You can also run the Configuration Wizard to extend an existing WebLogic domain, as described in Section 2.1.4, "Extending an Existing Domain"
.
If you are using a 32-bit operating system, Oracle JRockit SDK is installed as part of the Oracle WebLogic installation. This is the JDK that the Configuration Wizard will use by default. If you want to invoke the Configuration Wizard with the Sun JDK, do the following prior to starting the Configuration Wizard:
Set the JAVA_HOME
environment variable to the location of the Sun JDK. For example, you can set it to the Sun JDK that was installed with Oracle WebLogic Server in the MW_HOME
/jdk160_18
(on UNIX operating systems) or MW_HOME
\jdk160_18
(on Windows operating systems) directory.
Set the JAVA_VENDOR
environment variable to "Sun".
Log files of your configuration session are created in the MW_HOME
/oracle_common/common/bin
(on UNIX operating systems) or MW_HOME
\oracle_common\common\bin
(on Windows operating systems) directory. For more information about the Configuration Wizard log files, see Section D.2.2, "Configuration Log Files".
Follow the instructions in "Creating a WebLogic Domain" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Creating Domains Using the Configuration Wizard
to create a new WebLogic domain for your Oracle Application Developer components.
By default, the servers that are created in each domain use the same set of port numbers (for example, the Admnistration Server uses port 7001). If you want to use custom port numbers, you can change the port number when you run the Configuration Wizard:
The Administration Server port number can be changed on the Configure Administration Server Screen.
The port number for all managed servers in your domain can be changed on the Configure Managed Servers Screen.
Fore more information about port numbers, refer to "Port Numbers" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide
.
Java Required Files (JRF) consists of those components not included in the Oracle WebLogic Server installation and that provide common functionality for Oracle business applications and application frameworks.
JRF consists of a number of independently developed libraries and applications that are deployed into a common location. The components that are considered part of Java Required Files include: Oracle Application Development Framework, Oracle Fusion Middleware Audit Framework, Dynamic Monitoring Service, Infrastructure Security, Java Object Cache, Oracle Platform Security Services, logging, MDS, Oracle Web Services, and Oracle Web Services Manager.
You must apply JRF to a Managed Server or cluster in certain circumstances.You can only apply JRF to Managed Servers that are in a domain in which JRF was configured. That is, you must have selected Oracle JRF in the Configuration Wizard when you created or extended the domain.
For more information, see "Applying Java Required Files to a Managed Server or Cluster" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide
.
While creating your WebLogic domain, if you chose not to configure all of the components on the Select Domain Source Screen, you can add these components at a later date by extending your domain. If this is a first time installation or you do not want to add more components, you can skip this section and move to the next section.
Note:
Before proceeding, make sure that schemas exist in your database for the components you are configuring when you extend the domain. For example, if you are planning to extend the domain and configure Oracle WSM Policy Manager, then make sure the required schema for this component (MDS
) exists in your Oracle database before you continue.Follow the instructions in "Extending a WebLogic Domain" inOracle Fusion Middleware Creating Domains Using the Configuration Wizard
to extend an existing domain.
To get your deployments up and running, you must start the Administration Server by running the startWebLogic.sh
(on UNIX operating systems) or startWebLogic.cmd
(on Windows operating systems) script in the directory where you created your new domain.
On UNIX systems:
MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/domain_name/startWebLogic.sh
On Windows systems:
MW_HOME\user_projects\domains\domain_name\startWebLogic.cmd
You entered the domain name and location on the Specify Domain Name and Location Screen in the Configuration Wizard.
To verify the installation, start your browser and enter the following URLs:
To access the Administration Server console:
http://host:admin_server_port/console
If you configured your Administration Server to accept SSL connection, use the following URL to access the Administration Server console in secure mode:
https://host:secure_admin_server_port/console
http://host:admin_server_port/em
