WebLogic Server
10.3.6”
WebLogic Installation – Step 11

 Since, we just installed
WLS and want to have a
separate domain – select
“Create a new WebLogic
Domain”
 Hit Next to continue with
the domain creation
process
WebLogic Installation – Step 12
 We will continue with the
default selection for this
option “Select Domain
Source”

configured
automatically to support
the following products:
 BASIC WebLogic Server
Domain 10.3.6
 Hit Next to continue with
the domain creation

 If you have a preference for
a custom “domain name”
provide one

called “base_domain” in
the domain location C:OracleMiddlewareuse
r_projectsdomains

where you would define
the WebLogic Domain
access details
 UserName & Password
 We will leave the
username as “weblogic”
 You can configure the
password that you can
remember 
 Keep it Safe

 Hit Next to continue the
domain creation process
Note 1: The password must be minimum 8 characters for WebLogic Domain
Note 2: ATG Installation & Configuration will ask for lot more username/passwords – be ready to document these for future reference
WebLogic Installation – Step 15
 This is going to be our
Development instance
and hence no reason to
select production mode
 Continue with the default
“Development Mode”
 I didn’t update my JDK to
1.7 hence shows 1.6
 You can alternatively
install JDK 1.7 prior to WLS
installation to configure it
to use JDK 1.7
 Hit Next to continue with
the domain creation
process
WebLogic Installation – Step 16
 Optional Step
 No changes needed
 Hit Next to continue with
the domain creation
process
WebLogic Installation – Step 17

 OR you can start it later
manually by locating the
Batch file or a Shell Script

Server” to launch the
admin server and demo
you the WLS Console
WebLogic Admin Server – Start
 Once you launch the
“Admin Server”
 Wait until you see the
message “Running”
 Basically WLS will
switch between
several status
indicating the
progress e.g. Start 
Running
WebLogic Server – Admin Console
 http://localhost:7001/console - Launch the Admin console using this URL in
your favorite browser
 It will need few moments to deploy the application for / console – for 1st
access
 Once ready, it will seek for the admin username & password as defined
during the domain configuration process
WebLogic Admin Console - Access
 Once the WLS is 1st
access deployment
ready
 It will seek for the
username and
password for you to
access the admin
console
 Remember the
username “weblogic”
 Password “sorry you
have yours, I have
mine”
WebLogic Admin Console
