How to install Oracle Weblogic Server using OS-specific Package installer?(Windows)
- by PratikS -- Oracle
Note: OS-specific Package installer
As the name suggests the installer is platform specific.
It is meant for installation with a 32bit JVM only.
Both SUN and JROCKIT 32 bit JDKs come bundled with "OS-specific Package installer", so no need to install the JDK in advance.
There are three different ways of installing Oracle Weblogic Server:
Graphical mode
Console mode
Silent mode
For Windows:
1) Graphical mode:Installer: wls_<version>_win32.exe (E.g. wls1036_win32.exe)Steps to Install:1) Log in to the Windows system.2) Go to the directory that contains the installation program.3) Double-click the installation file.(wls1036_win32.exe)As soon as you double-click on the installation file you wold see the following screens:
Once the installation preparation is complete you will see the welcome screen:
Click Next
If there are existing Middleware Home Directories it will list all of them.
You may either select an existing Middleware Home Directory or create a new one.
Note: It is always recommended to have one Middleware Home Directory per installation, so I'll select "Create a new Middleware Home"
Click Next
If you want to register for Security updates enter your My Oracle Support credentials or else un-check the box, it will prompt to bypass click Yes and then click Next.
Click Next
Again Click Next
Click Next to All Users to access the Oracle Weblogic Server Installation.
Click Next ( Make sure the more then 1289.8 MB of space is available in the Middleware Home)
Wait for the installation to complete.
Click Done. And the installation is complete.
2) Console mode:
Log in to the target Windows system.
Open a command prompt window.
Go to the directory that contains the installation program.
Launch the installation by entering the name of the installation program.
