This section describes these topics:
Per the Minimum Technical Requirements for JD Edwards, Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 is supported with 64-bit JDKs on 64-bit platforms. You should always review the Certifications for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne for the supported platforms as described in Chapter 1, "Accessing Certifications (formerly Minimum Technical Requirements)".
The installation of Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 for 64-bit platforms does not include the 64-bit JDK. Therefore, prior to installing Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 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 12c Infrastructure product on Oracle Certification.
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.
Caution:
For Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2, no version of 1.6.x from any vendor is supported. The supported version of the JDK is listed in the section of this guide entitled: Section 4.4, "Installing and Verifying the JDK Version".Refer to Chapter 1, "Accessing Certifications (formerly Minimum Technical Requirements)" to locate for specific system requirements including minimum processor and memory required for Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 on JD Edwards EnterpriseOne HTML Servers.
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.
Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 supports JDK 1.7.0_55+, HP JDK 7.0.03, or IBM JDK 1.7.0 SR6+ version. Oracle JDK can be downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud at this link:
Note:
A plus sign '+' after the fourth digit in the version number indicates that this and its subsequent versions are supported.To use the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) to install Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2:
Locate the Oracle WebLogic 12.1.2 installer from the image that you downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
The file name of the installer is:
wls_121200.jar
On UNIX platforms, the command syntax to run the installer is platform dependent.
For Linux and AIX (non-Hybrid JDK)
> java -jar wls_121200.jar
For Solaris and HP-UX (Hybrid JDK)
