The HP-UX 11.0 default value for maximum threads per process is 64. This value may be too low for both WebLogic Server and Java server applications in general. If the value is too low, your WebLogic Server may have problems starting up.
BEA recommends that you use the maximum kernel setting for the max_thread_proc
and maxusers
parameters. Setting maxusers
to a higher value increases other machine-wide limits, such as nkthread
(the maximum number of kernel threads). The following table shows recommendations for kernel configuration parameters.
If, after launching QuickStart, you select a link, a dialog box might appear prompting you to choose a Web browser. Even if you select the correct Netscape browser, QuickStart may fail to start the application.
To resolve this problem, terminate QuickStart, unset the LANG
environment variable (manually or by using a wrapper function), and restart the QuickStart application.
This problem is reported in CR082062.
If the Apache server hangs when you are trying to use the BEA Apache plugin mod_wl_20.so
on an HP-UX
platform, then you are probably using an obsolete version of ld
and/or libdld.sl
. Apache binaries require the B.11.32 (or higher) version of ld
and libdld.sl
.
To determine which version of ld
is installed on your system, complete the following procedure:
ld
and libdld.sl
have the same version number and that number is 11.32 or higher, then you are using the appropriate versions and you can quit this procedure; you are ready to run the mod_wl_20.so
plugin.ld
and libdld.sl
do not match, or if the numbers match and that number is lower than 11.32, then you need to install an HP patch. For instructions, proceed to step 3.http://us-support.external.hp.com

To install WebLogic Server 7.0 SP4 on a configuration of HP-UX 11.23 on Itanium, complete the following procedure:
www.hp.com
.JAVA_HOME
environment variable to reflect the SDK installation directory. JAVA_HOME=/opt/java1.3; export JAVA_HOME
PATH
environment variable to include JAVA_HOME/bin
. PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
http://commerce.bea.com
. $ jar -xvf wls704_hpux1123_supp.jar
This step overwrites some shell scripts and creates new directories for native libraries.
${WL_HOME}/server/lib/hpux11/oci817_8
with ${WL_HOME}/server/lib/hpux11/IPF32/oci920_8
in the following shell scripts:${WL_HOME}/server/bin/startWLS.sh
${WL_HOME}/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh
${WL_HOME}/server/bin/startNodeManager.sh.
SHLIB_PATH
in the following shell scripts so it points to the IPF32
directory under lib/hpux11
. Replace all occurrences of ${WL_HOME}/server/lib/hpux11
with ${WL_HOME}/server/lib/hpux11/IPF32
.${WL_HOME}/server/bin/startWLS.sh
${WL_HOME}/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh
${WL_HOME}/server/bin/startNodeManager.sh
JAVA_HOME
so it points to the SDK installed in step 1 in the following shell scripts:
