Creating a Workshop-Enabled Server Domain

This topic explains how to create a WebLogic Server domain that can support an application build with Workshop. The instructions below will show you how to add the NetUI and Controls framework libraries, the JMS queues required for message buffering, reliable messaging, and JMS transport to a server domain.

This topic describes two cases for adding Workshop application resources to a server domain:

  1. Adding Workshop Resources to a New Server Domain
  2. Adding Workshop Resources to an Existing Server Domain

Adding Workshop Resources to a New Server Domain

If you are creating a new server domain, use these instructions to ensure that the appropriate Workshop resources are present:

  1. If you are using Windows, open the domain configuration wizard by selecting Start > BEA Products > Tools > Configuration Wizard.

    If you are using Linux, open the domain configuration wizard by running BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/bin/config.sh.
  2. In the BEA WebLogic Configuration Wizard, on the page labeled Welcome, confirm that Create a new WebLogic domain is selected. Click Next.
  3. On the page labeled Select Domain Source, place a checkmark next to Workshop for WebLogic 10.1. Click Next.

    (From a Workshop perspective, this is the important part of the configuration wizard. By placing a check next to Workshop for WebLogic 10.1, you ensure that the domain is configured with the appropriate libraries, JMS queues, and JDBC datasources.)


  4. Complete the rest of the domain configuration wizard as appropriate.

Adding Workshop Resources to an Existing Server Domain

If you are updating an previously existing domain, use these instructions to ensure that the appropriate Workshop resources are present.

  1. If you are using Windows, open the domain configuration wizard by selecting Start > BEA Products > Tools > Configuration Wizard.

    If you are using Linux, open the domain configuration wizard by running BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/bin/config.sh.
  2. In the BEA WebLogic Configuration Wizard, on the page labeled Welcome, select Extend and existing WebLogic domain. Click Next.
  3. On the page labeled Select WebLogic Domain Directory, navigate to the root folder of your server domain.
    Click Next.
  4. On the page labeled Select Extension Source, place a checkmark next to Extend my domain using an existing extension template.
    Browse
    to the extension template at BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/common/templates/applications/workshop_wl.jar. Click Next.

    (From a Workshop perspective, this is the important part of the configuration wizard. By selecting the extension template, you ensure sure that domain is configured with the appropriate libraries, JMS queues, and JDBC datasources.)
  5. Complete the rest of the domain configuration wizard as appropriate.

For more information on completing the configuration wizard, see Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard in the WebLogic Server documentation.
