2.1 Installing Oracle WebLogic Server

Before you can deploy Oracle WebCenter Wiki and Blog Server, you must have Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3 installed. For information about system requirements and the steps for installing Oracle WebLogic Server, see the installation guide posted at:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/common/docs103/install/index.html

2.2 Creating a New Domain

You deploy Oracle WebCenter Wiki in a domain. A domain is the basic administrative unit of WebLogic Server. The basic domain infrastructure consists of one Administration Server (Admin server) and optional managed servers and clusters.

To deploy Oracle WebCenter Wiki and Blog Server on Oracle WebLogic Server, you need to create a new domain by using the Oracle WebLogic Configuration Wizard.

To create a new domain, follow the instructions in Table 2-1. If you need additional help with any of the configuration screens, refer to "Appendix A, "Oracle WebLogic Configuration Screens"".

Note: If you want to deploy the wiki and blog server to an existing domain, you must select the Extend an existing WebLogic domain option on the Welcome screen in the Oracle WebLogic Configuration Wizard. For more information about domains, see the details available on the following URL: http://download-llnw.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/common/docs103/confgwiz/index.html
