Depending on your country local, special characters may not be recognized when trying to input and confirm the password when using the Configuration Wizard.
Copy the problematic characters into the clipboard and paste them into the password fields. For security reasons, do not copy the entire password into the clipboard.
The installer does not verify whether sufficient disk space is available on the machine prior to completing the installation. As a result, if an installation cannot be completed due to insufficient space, the installer displays the following error message and exits:
Fatal error encountered during file installation. The installer will nowcleanup and exit!
If this problem occurs, restart the installer using the following command:
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -jar wls1032_generic.jar -log=log.out -log_priority=debug
The preceding command generates a log of the installation procedure, providing details about the exact cause of the failure. If the cause is indeed insufficient space, the log file indicates it explicitly.
To install and configure Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.2, perform the following steps:
Download the IBM Java 6 64-bit (SR6) from IBM download site.
Install IBM Java 6 on your system.
Export $JAVA_HOME/bin into PATH where JAVA_HOME is the java installation path. For example:
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
