To Start the Domain on Solaris and Linux

1. Add the install-dir/bin/ directory to the PATH environment variable.

2. Set the AS_ADMIN_USER environment variable so that you do not need to type it for every command.

   Set the value of AS_ADMIN_USER to the admin user you specified when you installed the Application Server. For example, setenv AS_ADMIN_USER admin

3. Start the server by entering this command from the install-dir:

   asadmin start-domain domain1

   When you are prompted for the admin password and the master password, enter the passwords that you provided during installation.

4. A message appears telling you that the Domain Administration Server is starting:

   Starting Domain domain1, please wait. Log redirected to domain_dir/domain1/logs/server.log...

5. When the startup process has completed, an additional message appears:

   Domain domain1 started
