This document provides instructions for installing and running the Oracle installer for the Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0.
Additional information regarding the Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 is available at this link:
This section describes how to download Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud located at this link:
This section describes these topics:
64-Bit Support - General
64-Bit - JDK
System Requirements
Installation Considerations
Per the Minimum Technical Requirements for JD Edwards, Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 is supported with 64-bit JDKs on 64-bit platforms. You should always review the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne MTRs for the supported platforms as described in Chapter 1, "Accessing the Minimum Technical Requirements".
The installation of Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 for 64-bit platforms does not include the 64-bit JDK. Therefore, prior to installing Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 for 64-bit platforms, you must manually download and install the requisite JDK. For the latest information about the specifically supported JDK, refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Certification document at this link:
Additionally, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne requires that a 64-bit JDK be installed so that the \bin directory of the JDK is located at the beginning of the PATH variable definition.
Refer to the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne MTRs (Chapter 1, "Accessing the Minimum Technical Requirements") for Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 for specific system requirements including minimum processor and memory.
Oracle recommends the following:
Do not exceed a maximum of 12 characters when naming your home directory. If the name of this directory has more than 12 characters and if there are spaces in the directory name, the CLASSPATH may not be resolved properly.
You can install only one instance of each version of an Oracle WebLogic product in a single home directory
If you launch the installation from the command line or from a script, you can specify the -log option to generate a verbose installation log. The installation log stores messages (informational, warning, error, and fatal) about events that occur during the installation process.
Starting with Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne HTML Server only supports the Oracle JDK 7+.
Note:
JRockit and HotSpot are merged into a single JVM starting with Oracle JDK 7. There is not a version called JRockit 7. The WebLogic Server does not ship with JDK 7. You can download Oracle JDK 7 from the following link:http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
(A plus sign '+' in the version number indicates that this and its subsequent versions are supported)
To verify your version of an installed JDK, use this command from the command prompt:
>java -version
>java -d64 -version
The system returns results as shown in the example:
For Oracle JDK 7+:
Note:
Verify the returned result indicates that a 64-bit version of the JDK is installed.JD Edwards EnterpriseOne requires that a 64-bit JDK be installed so that the \bin directory of the JDK is located at the beginning of the PATH variable definition.
Caution:
In order for the JDK 7 to function properly with the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne HTML Server, after you have installed WebLogic Server, you must manually copy JDK specific.jar
files. Refer to the section of this chapter entitled: Section 5.7, "Post Installation and Configuration".This section describes running the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) to install Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0.
Run the Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0 installer from the image that you downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
The item name of the installer is (V29856-01). The filename of the installer is:
wls1036_generic.jar
Upon execution, the installer starts preparing the OUI install program.
Open a Command window with Run as Administrator option and run this command from the prompt:
>java -jar wls1036_generic.jar
Note:
You must have a valid value for the Java_Home in your system path.On Welcome, click the Next button.
On Choose Middleware Home Directory, click this radio button:

Click the Done button.
The QuickStart menu is displayed. Refer to the next section in this guide entitled: Section 5.6, "Using QuickStart to Configure Oracle WebLogic 10.3.6.0".
You can use QuickStart to create a starter domain using the Configuration Wizard. These instructions guide you in the creation of a domain for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.
If you selected the Run Quickstart check box on the Installation Complete menu of the installer, QuickStart is automatically launched.
To manually launch the QuickStart configuration wizard, run this executable:
<MW_HOME>\utils\quickstart\quickstart.cmd
On the QuickStart links panel, select this link:
Getting started with WebLogic Server 10.3.6
A Configuration Wizard is launched.
