For instruction on how to do this check out the following articles. Oracle Linux 5 (OL5) Installation : I did the basic installation with no extra package groups for this installation. Oracle Linux 6 (OL6) Installation : I picked the "Desktop" option for this installation, so I would have a graphical interface without having to select separate package groups. Everything in the installation will be 64-bit. Software Download the WebLogic Server 11g software from Oracle Technology Network. Remember, if your installation is to be used for Oracle Forms, you should use Java6. Setup Java Development Kit 6 - For WebLogic installations you need JDK6, but you can also use it for WebLogic installations. The standard JDK is fine for development environments, but for production environments you should use JRockit. JRockit - Use this in place of standard JDK for production servers requiring JDK6. Java Development Kit 7 - WebLogic installations can use either JDK6 or JDK7 depending on your requirements. This is the same JDK7 you will use for development or production servers. WebLogic Server 11gr1 - Generic Installer (1G) - You can use or , but you should really be using , especially if you plan on using this installation as a base for Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 Installation on Oracle Linux 6. The following actions should be performed by the "root" user. Make sure the "/etc/hosts" file contains correct entries for both the "localhost" and real host names localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain ol6-forms.localdomain ol6-forms Create a new group and user. groupadd -g 1000 oinstall useradd -u g oinstall oracle passwd oracle Create the directories in which the Oracle software will be installed. mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/fmw11g mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/config/domains mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/config/applications chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01 chmod -R 775 /u01/ Append the following entries into the "/home/oracle/.bash_profile" file.

2 2 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM export MW_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/fmw11g export WLS_HOME=$MW_HOME/wlserver_10.3 export WL_HOME=$WLS_HOME # Set to the appropriate JAVA_HOME. #export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_33 export JAVA_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/jrockit-jdk1.6.0_45-R #export JAVA_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/jdk1.7.0_17 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH Install the JDK. Instructions for installing JRockit can be found here. This article will assume JRockit is being used. If you want to use HotSpot for JDK6 or JDK7 you might install them like this. # # Java 6 as root # rpm -Uvh jdk-6u33-linux-amd64.rpm Or $ # Java 7 as Oracle $ cd /u01/app/oracle/ $ tar -xvzf /tmp/jdk-7u17-linux-x64.tar.gz As specified in MOS Note [ID ], amend the "/etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf" file, making the following change. # From * soft nproc 1024 #To * - nproc Installation Run the installer as the "oracle" user. $ $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xmx1024m -jar wls1035_generic.jar $ # Or $ $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xmx1024m -jar wls1036_generic.jar Click the "Next" button on the welcome screen. Enter the middleware home ("/u01/app/oracle/product/fmw11g") and click the "Next" button.

3 3 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM Either enter your support details, or attempt to uncheck the security updates checkbox. The box doesn't actually uncheck, but presents you with a warning dialog. If you click the "Yes" button, indicating you don't want updates, you are returned to the same screen with the box still checked. Click the "Next" button anyway. Assuming you don't want security updates, click "Yes" and "Yes" on the subsequent warning dialogs and you are presented with the "Connection Failed" screen. Check the "I wish to remain uninformed..." checkbox and click the "Continue" button. This whole process is very confusing at first. Obviously the developers responsible didn't really expect people to say no to security updates!

4 4 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM Accept the typical setup by clicking the "Next" button. Accept the default JDK selection by clicking the "Next" button. Accept the default product installation directories by clicking the "Next" button. If you are happy with the summary information, click the "Next" button and wait while the installation completes.

5 5 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM On the installation complete screen, uncheck the "Quickstart" checkbox and click the "Done" button. If you are using this installation as a base for an Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 installation, you don't need to do any of the remaining steps. Instead skip to the relevant article. Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 Installation on Oracle Linux 5 Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 Installation on Oracle Linux 6 Create Domain If you are planning to use this installation for something other than Oracle Forms and Reports Services, you will need to create a domain. This can be done using the Quickstart utility. $ $MW_HOME/utils/quickstart/quickstart.sh On the Quickstart screen, click the "Getting Started with WebLogic Server " link.

6 6 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM On the welcome screen, accept the "Create a new WebLogic domain" option by clicking the "Next" button. Select the type of domain and click the "Next" button.

7 7 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM Enter the desired domain name and location, then click the "Next" button. Enter the administrator username and password, then click the "Next" button.

8 8 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM Select the startup mode and JDK, then click the "Next" button. Select any required optional configuration, then click the "Next" button.

9 9 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM If you are happy with the information on the summary screen, click the "Create" button. Once the domain is created, click the "Done" button.

10 10 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM Close the Quickstart screen, unless you have any other operations to do. The "$MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/mydomain" directory now contains a script that can be used to start the server. Remember to use the "&" if you want control of the command line returned. $ cd /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain $./startweblogic.sh If you want to start the domains without typing in credentials, you need to create a boot identity file after the domain has been started for the first time. Post-Installation Once the server is started you can access the administrator console using the " URL. Log in using the username and password provided in the previous step. The following scripts are useful. $ # Start NodeManager $ nohup $WLS_HOME/server/bin/startNodeManager.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 &

11 11 of 11 8/25/ :19 AM $ # Start WebLogic $ nohup /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain/startweblogic.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 & $ # or $ nohup /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain/bin/startweblogic.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 & $ # Stop WebLogic $ /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain/bin/stopweblogic.sh $ # Start Managed Server $ nohup /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain/bin/startmanagedweblogic.sh AdminServer > /dev/null 2>&1 & $ # Stop Managed Server $ /u01/app/oracle/config/domains/mydomain/bin/stopmanagedweblogic.sh AdminServer $ # Start the configuration wizard $ $WLS_HOME/common/bin/config.sh Applying Patch Set Updates (PSUs) The patch set updates (PSUs) come with a "README.txt" file that explains how to apply the patches. You should always follow the patch note, but the basic format is typically as follows. Unzip the patch into the correct location. $ mkdir -p $MW_HOME/utils/bsu/cache_dir $ cd $MW_HOME/utils/bsu/cache_dir $ unzip /tmp/p _1036_generic.zip Apply the patch. $ cd $MW_HOME/utils/bsu $./bsu.sh -install -patch_download_dir=$mw_home/utils/bsu/cache_dir -patchlist=hykc -prod_dir=$wls_home If you get conflicts, you may have to remove previous patches, before attempting to apply the patch again. $ cd $MW_HOME/utils/bsu $./bsu.sh -remove -patchlist=abcd -prod_dir=$wls_home $./bsu.sh -install -patch_download_dir=$mw_home/utils/bsu/cache_dir -patchlist=hykc -prod_dir=$wls_home After the patch is successfully applied, restart all WebLogic servers. Check the version. $. $WLS_HOME/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh $ java weblogic.version WebLogic Server PSU Patch for BUG Fri Nov 23 10:16:54 IST 2012 WebLogic Server Tue Nov 15 08:52:36 PST Use 'weblogic.version -verbose' to get subsystem information Use 'weblogic.utils.versions' to get version information for all modules $ For more information see: Oracle WebLogic Server Previous Releases Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 Installation on Oracle Linux 5 Oracle Forms and Reports 11gR2 Installation on Oracle Linux 6 WebLogic Server 11g and 12c : Create, Extend and Remove Domains WebLogic Server 11g and 12c : Clustered Domains WebLogic Server 11g : ADF Application Development Runtime Upgrade on Oracle Linux JRockit Installation on Linux Hope this helps.
