The following sections describe how to install WebLogic SIP Server using console-mode installation:
Before you start installing WebLogic SIP Server, please review the following information:
If you are adding components to an existing installation of WebLogic Platform, you should shut down any running servers before starting the installation.
/bea/sipserver31) must be at the same version level. If you attempt to install additional components at a higher version than those that are already installed in that directory, the installation program prompts you to upgrade your existing components before you can proceed with the installation.
| Note: | If you are installing WebLogic Platform 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 console mode on a Windows system:
wlssXXX_win32.exe -mode=console (WebLogic Server package installer)
In this filename, XXX represents the version number of the software you are installing.
| Note: | You can also include the -log=full_path_to_log_file option in the command line to create a verbose installation log. For example: |
| Note: | wlssXXX_win32 -mode=console -log=C:\logs\platform_install.log |
| Note: | For more information, see Generating a Verbose Installation Log. |
The installation program begins to install WebLogic SIP Server.
wlssXXX_win32.exe -mode=console (package installer)
In this filename, XXX represents the version number of the software you are installing.
| Note: | You can also include the -log=full_path_to_log_file option in the command line to create a verbose installation log. For example: |
| Note: | wlssXXX_win32.exe -mode=console -log=D:\logs\platform_install.log |
| Note: | For more information, see Generating a Verbose Installation Log. |
The WebLogic Platform installation program requires a Java run-time environment (JRE) to run. A JRE is bundled in the Windows installation program, and in some UNIX installation programs (those with filenames ending in .bin). For other UNIX platforms, the WebLogic SIP Server installation program does not include the JRE. Filenames for these installation programs end in .jar. To run the .jar installation programs, you must have an appropriate version of a Java 2 SDK installed on your system, and include the bin directory of the Java 2 SDK at the front of the PATH system variable.
| Note: | It is important that you use an SDK because the installation process sets the JAVA_HOME and related variables to point to this directory. All scripts installed with WebLogic Platform use this SDK by default, including scripts to start sample applications, the Configuration Wizard, and other WebLogic development tools. |
If you have an installation program for UNIX platforms with a filename that ends in .bin, complete the following steps to start the installation in console mode:
chmod a+x filename.bin
./filename.bin -mode=console
Here filename.bin is the name of the WebLogic SIP Server installation program specific to your platform.
| Note: | You can also include the -log=full_path_to_log_file option in the command line to create a verbose installation log. For example: |
| Note: | wlssXXX_linux.bin -mode=console -log=/home/logs/platform_install.log |
| Note: | In this example, XXX represents the version number of the software you are installing. For more information, see Generating a Verbose Installation Log. |
Here, filename.bin is the name of the WebLogic SIP Server installation program specific to your platform.
| Note: | You can also include the -log=full_path_to_log_file option in the command line to create a verbose installation log. For example: |
| Note: | ./wlssXXX_solaris.bin -mode=console -log=/home/logs/platform_install.log |
| Note: | For more information, see Generating a Verbose Installation Log. |
If you have an installation program for UNIX platforms with a filename that ends in .jar, follow these steps to start the installation in console mode:
bin directory of the appropriate SDK to the beginning of the PATH variable definition on the target system. For example:
PATH=JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH
Here JAVA_HOME represents the full path to the SDK directory.
java -jar filename.jar -mode=console
Here, filename.jar is the name of the WebLogic SIP Server installation file, for example wlssXXX_generic.jar.
| Note: | You can also include the -log=full_path_to_log_file option in the command line to create a verbose installation log. For example: |
| Note: | java -jar wlssXXX_generic.jar -mode=console |
| Note: | For more information, see Generating a Verbose Installation Log. |
To complete the console-mode installation process, respond to the prompts in each section by entering the number associated with your choice or by pressing Enter to accept the default. To exit the installation process, enter exit (or x, for short) in response to any prompt. To review or change your selection, enter previous (or p, for short) at the prompt. To proceed to the following window, enter next (or n, for short).
| Note: | The sample console text and directory pathnames in this section use Windows conventions (backslashes) for pathnames, for example C:\bea\sipserver31. When entering pathnames on a UNIX system, use the UNIX convention (forward slashes) in pathnames, for example, /home1/bea/sipserver31. |
The following procedure steps you through the installation program. Use this procedure after you have started the installation program in console mode as described in the previous sections.
next (or n for short) or press Enter to continue with the installation process.The Choose BEA Home directory prompt is displayed.
The installation program displays the following prompt:
Choose BEA Home Directory:
--------------------------
*BEA home choice
1¦Create a new BEA Home [C:\bea]
->2¦Use an existing BEA Home [D:\beahome1]
Enter index number to select OR [Exit][Previous][Next]>
| Note: | Instead of typing complete words when you want to enter [Exit], [Previous], and [Next], you can use the following one-letter shortcuts: x, p, and n, respectively. |
2 or next (or n for short), or press Enter. If you have more than one BEA Home directory on your system, an additional prompt will display the directories. Type the number associated with the desired BEA Home directory.1, then at the prompt, enter the full path of the BEA Home directory, for example C:\beahome2. If you specify a directory that does not exist, the installation program creates it for you. Whether you accept the existing BEA Home directory or choose to create a new BEA Home directory, you are prompted to confirm your selection, as shown in the following sample:
Choose BEA Home Directory:
--------------------------
*BEA home choice
->1¦Yes, Use this BEA home directory [C:\bea]
2¦No, return to BEA home directory selection
Enter index number to select OR [Exit][Previous][Next]>
On the command line, type 1 or press Enter to accept your selection. Otherwise, type 2 to return to the Choose BEA Home Directory panel where you can modify your entry.
After you have selected your BEA Home directory and confirmed your selection, the Choose Product Directory prompt is displayed.
bea_home\sipserver31) or create a new product directory. If you specify a new directory, the installation program automatically creates it for you.
The choices displayed in this section are as follows:
Choose Product Directory:
-------------------------
Product Installation Directory= [C:\bea\sipserver31]
Input new Product Installation Directory OR [Exit][Previous][Next]>next (or n for short) to accept the current selection.You are prompted to confirm your selection as shown in the following text:
Choose Product Directory:
-------------------------
->1| Yes, use this product directory [C:\bea\sipserver31]
2| No, select another product directory
Enter index number to select OR [Exit][Previous][Next]>
Verify that your entry is correct, then type 1 or press Enter to proceed with the installation. Otherwise, type 2 to return to the Choose Product Directory panel where you can modify your entry.
At this point, the installation program installs the files to the directory you specified.
| Note: | It is normal for the installation program to pause for a fairly long time, especially toward the end. The installation program is still working when this occurs. |
Exit to exit the installation program.
You can start using the product immediately after installing it for the first time. For additional information, see Configuring a WebLogic SIP Server Domain.
