Verifying the GUI is Operational
The checkGui.sh
utility checks common factors to assess whether the GUI is operational. In the event that the GUI is not working, this utility may lead users to the likely cause of the problem.
This utility checks the following:
-
Is weblogic enabled on the system?
-
Are there phantom or stale processes that may inhibit weblogic operation?
-
Is the SlimGUI application successfully deployed?
-
Can weblogic and the GUI respond to an http request sent to localhost?
-
Can weblogic respond to an http request sent to the internet address of the host?
-
Is the firewall service enabled on the server? If so, is there a policy to accept incoming requests to weblogic ports 7001 and 7002?
On Linux systems, you may find that the firewall called iptables
is enabled by default. You can disable iptables
completely, or you can add a policy to accept incoming traffic to ports 7001 and 7002.
The comparable service on Solaris is ipfilter
, which is not normally enabled by default.
