Install & Configure Oracle Weblogic Server 10.3.

6 & Patch
Windows8/Windows 2008 R2

Hello guys, we just posted how to upgrade your existing  Forms


& Reporots 32Bit 11.1.2.1.0  to 11.1.2.2.0. Why don’t check it
out here?

We are running a blog explaining many workaround solutions


for installing and configuring discontinued, uncertified Oracle
software on Windows 7 & Windows 8 from last year onward.

Let us accept it, Developer 6i applications face multiple issues


while used on both Windows 7&8 like:

1. Intermittent crashes
2. Rendering menu modules
3. Stability
4. Running products like Reports and Graphs

Usually a legacy application compiled using patch sets below 18


are less prone to above mentioned issues, however an
application completely developed using patch 18 regularly get
into issues on Windows 7 & 8 where hacks are used.

Recently we were forced to look towards a better environment


for a new application, which by certain reasons cannot be
accommodated and hosted within Oracle Application entity, and
we started dwelling the possibilities of setting up a Weblogic
server (old application server) for our forms and reports
modules.

in short, we did it! and we are sharing the experience with you.

you need the following to carryout the installation and


configuration
Windows 8/Windows 2008 R2 box (VM for testing)

Oracle Weblogic Server 10.3.6 (32Bit)

Part 1 – Weblogic Server 10.3.6 Installation


Jar installation:
Open cmd

Cd E:\Software\DEVELOPER\WLS\11G_WLS\ V29856-01_V.10.3.6
set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_80"

%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -Xmx1024m -jar wls1036_generic.jar

Installation of Weblogic is pretty straight forward on Windows


8. Only once the compatibility issue is raised, which you can
safely ignore by the click of a button.

The Weblogic 10.3.6 (wls1036_win32.exe) installation comes


as a single .exe file, which you can start like any other installer.

Please have a look at the images

Choose a directory name without spaces, this is going to be


your middleware home.

Uncheck the email notification, you don’t need it as far you


don’t have a support from oracle
Select “Custom” installation type, as you can select which JDK
to be selected and other components at later stages. We
installed both JDK for our installation.

Click next to continue

Leave the selection as it is


Select Yes for “Node Manager Service”, it will make few things
simpler at later stages, especially while you are using Admin
Server for managing both forms and reports servers.

Select “All Users”

Clicking “Next” will start installing the Weblogic server 10.3.6


for you. Relax and wait until the installation completes.
Once installation has been done, you will be given an option to
setup the Weblogic server with an instance, which we will do as
a part of Forms & Reports 11g installation and configuration.
Patching needed:

Download patch p16844206 for weblogic 10.3.6(11g)
