Weblogic12c installation

 

Here my experiment with the lastest release of WebLogic version that is 12c. Sharing Step by Step process of installation for WebLogic 12c on Solaris 10.

 

1) First we need to download generic jar from http://download.oracle.com site after accepting the license agreement. Note that you must be registered a user for Oracle.

2) copy that file into your location where you want to install.

3) java 1.6 or above should be installed in your machine before the installation of Weblogic12c

   So after installing java check the version with below command.

Check the current version of java with the below command

---------------------------------------------------------

  

   java -version

Setting java path:

------------------

Ensure that your java home has been set properly in .profile/.bash_profile file

i.e the path should be the same where java has been installed.

logout and login to make the .bash_profile file changes affect
