Weblogic Domino Service Setup Guide

Installation

This chapter describes how to install the WebLogic Domino Service on the various supported platforms.

This chapter contains the following sections:

Note: The %BEA_HOME% directory refers to the directory where products are installed and the %BEA_DOMINO_SERVICE_HOME% directory refers to the directory where the WebLogic Domino Service is installed.

Installation Prerequisites

The WebLogic Domino Service is a component of the WebLogic Personal Messaging API. The WebLogic Domino Service installer is a component and included as part of the WebLogic Personal Messaging API install bundle.

Installation Methods

The BEA installation program supports the following methods for installing the WebLogic Domino Service software:

Graphical mode

Graphical-mode installation is an interactive, GUI-based method for installing WebLogic Domino Service. For instructions for using this method, see Installing Using Graphical-Mode Installation.

Note: If you want to run graphical-mode installation, the console attached to the machine on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. All consoles for Windows systems support Java-based GUIs, but not all consoles for UNIX systems do. If you attempt to start the installation program in graphical mode on a system that cannot support a graphical display, the installation program automatically starts console-mode installation.

Console mode

Console-mode installation is an interactive, text-based method for installing WebLogic Domino Service, from the command line, on either a UNIX system or a Windows system. For instructions for using this method, see Installing Using Console-Mode Installation.

Installing Using Graphical-Mode Installation

Perform the following steps to install the WebLogic Domino Service using the Graphical-Mode Installation. You can install on either Windows or UNIX.

Starting the Installation Program in Graphical Mode on Windows

Note: If you are installing WebLogic Domino Service on a Windows system that supports more than one monitor, you must disable all but one monitor before starting the installation program.

To start the installation in graphical mode on a Windows system:

Obtain the WebLogic Domino Service installer. This installer is available from the WebLogic Personal Messaging API product bundle.

Double-click the installation file: wl_domino_service_setup-XX.exe

Here, XX represents the version number of the software you are installing. The installation program begins to install WebLogic Domino Service.

Proceed to Running the Installation Program.

Starting the Installation Program in Graphical Mode on UNIX Platforms

To run the graphical-mode installation, your console must support a Java-based GUI. If the installation program determines that your system cannot support a Java-based GUI, it automatically starts running in console-mode. For details, see Installing Using Console-Mode Installation.

Complete the following steps to start the installation in graphical mode:

Obtain the WebLogic Domino Service installer. This installer is available from the WebLogic Personal Messaging API product bundle.

Launch the installation by entering the following commands:

chmod a+x filename.bin

./filename.bin

Here, filename.bin is the name of the WebLogic Domino Service installation program specific to your platform. The installer filename is wl_domino_service_setup-XX.bin, where XX represents the version number of the software you are installing.
The installation program begins to install WebLogic Domino Service.

Proceed to Running the Installation Program.

Running the Installation Program

The installation program prompts you to enter specific information about your system and configuration. For instructions on responding to the prompts during installation, see Table 1-1.

Verifying the Installation

Check the following items to verify that the WebLogic Domino Service was installed:

The following files were added to the %LOTUS_DOMINO_HOME% directory:

On Windows:

czdo.dll
czdo_service.dll

On UNIX:

libczdo.dll
libczdo_service.dll

The following Notes database and template was added to the %LOTUS_DOMINO_DATA% directory:

bea_config.nsf
bea_config.ntf

Configuring the Lotus Domino Server

Perform the following steps to configure the Lotus Domino server that will host the WebLogic Domino Service:

Open the Lotus Administrator client application and open the server where the WebLogic Domino Service is installed.

Edit the server document for the server where the WebLogic Domino Service is installed.

Select Internet Protocols > HTTP tab.

Under the DSAPI section, add the WebLogic Domino Service to the DSAPI filter file names field.

For Windows, add czdo_service.dll.
For UNIX, add libczdo_service.so.

Note: If entries exist in this field, append WebLogic Domino Service to the end, separated by a semicolon (;), with no carriage returns or whitespaces. For example, ndolextn.dll;czdo_service.dll.

Save the server document.

If the Lotus Domino server is started, enter the following tell commands from the Lotus Domino server console to restart the HTTP task:

tell http quit load http
If the Lotus Domino server is not started, start the server.

Note: Replication of server document to the Lotus Domino server might be needed to ensure that the WebLogic Domino Service is installed correctly.

To verify the WebLogic Domino Service was installed and configured correctly, you should see the following message from within the Lotus Domino server console:
