ERROR [home] com.bea.plateng.wizard.installer.silent.tasks.SilentBEAHomeTask - The local BEA product registry is corrupted. Please select another Middleware Home or contact Oracle Support

This error dur to one of the following reasons;

1- Oracle example slinet.xml has error, the folllowing line appears twice in the silent.xml file
 (?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?)You'll need to delete one of these lines

In order to avoid any errors during the installation of WebLogic in a silent mode.You'll need to follow the setps:

1- Download Sample file from Oracle documentation

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14142/silent.htm


2- Change the silent.xml file, put the right path for your WLS_HOME

3- start silent mode installation as following

From Dos prompt
D:\Oracle-Docs>wls1035_oepe111172_win32.exe -mode=silent -silent_xml=D:\Oracle-Docs\silent1.xml -log=D:\Oracle-Docs\silent.log

Error installation Weblogic in Silent Mode

In order to avoid any errors druing the installation of WebLogic in silent mode.You'll need to follow the setps

1- Download Sample file from Oracle documentation
2- change this file for example

Install and configrue Web Server 1.1 Plug-Ins with Oracle WebLogic Server 11g Release 1 (10.3.3)

1- Download Apache Software

http://httpd.apache.org

2-Install Apache op Linux

cd /usr/local/src

# gzip -d httpd-2.2.9.tar.gz

# tar xvf httpd-2.2.9.tar

cd httpd-2.2.9

# ./configure --help

3- In the following example, Apache will be compiled and installed to the default location

/usr/local/apache2 with the DSO capability. Using the –enable-so option, you can load modules

to Apache at runtime via the Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) mechanism, rather than requiring a recompilation.

4-# ./configure --enable-so

5- # make

6- # make install

Note: During the ./configure, you may get the following error message.


7- # ./configure --enable-so

configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

See `config.log' for more details.

configure failed for srclib/aprInstall the gcc and the dependent modules as shown below and try ./configure again to fix the above issue.


# rpm -ivh gcc-4.1.2-14.el5.i386.rpm glibc-devel-2.5-18.i386.rpm glibc-headers-2.5-18.i38

Start Apache and verify installation


8- # cd /usr/local/apache2/bin

9- # ./apachectl start

Go to http://local-host, which should display the default message “It Works!”

10- Dowload WLSPlugin from http://Metalink.oracle.com

11- unzip WLSPlugin1.1-64bitApache2.2-linux64-x86_64.zip

for example /BEA_HOME/WLSPlugin1 or anyother directory

12- make sure the mod_wl_220.so library in you Plg-in lib directory

13 - Verify that mod_so.c is enabled by executing the following command:

#APACHE_HOME\bin\apachectl -l . the result must be like that

/apachectl -l

Compiled in modules:

core.c

mod_authn_file.c

mod_authn_default.c

mod_authz_host.c

mod_authz_groupfile.c

mod_authz_user.c

mod_authz_default.c

mod_auth_basic.c

mod_include.c

mod_filter.c

mod_log_config.c

mod_env.c

mod_asis.c

mod_cgi.c

mod_negotiation.c

mod_dir.c

mod_actions.c

mod_userdir.c

mod_alias.c

mod_so.c

This command lists all enabled modules. If mod_so.c is not listed, you must rebuild your Apache HTTP Server,
making sure that the following options are configured:
..

--enable-module=so

--enable-rule=SHARED_CORE

Configuring the apache plug-in

14- Make copy of httpd.conf file

15- Add the http.conf file

# vi http.conf

- Add the following lines to the http.conf file

LoadModule weblogic_module /mnt/orc6/Oracle/Middleware/WLSPlugin1.1/lib/mod_wl.so




WebLogicHost (your weblogic host name)
WebLogicCluster  (your host name:port number, host name:port number)
Ex.
WebLogicCLuster myhost:7003,myhost:7004

Debug ALL

DebugConfigInfo ON

WLLogFile /mnt/orc6/Oracle/Middleware/WLSPlugin1.1/wl-proxy.log


   ex

SetHandler weblogic-handler

Using virtual host in place of Load Moduel

We can add the followin lines if we want to use virtual host in place of load moduel




SetHandler weblogic-handler

WebLogicCluster Hostname:7003,HostName:7004






SetHandler weblogic-handler

WebLogicHost  YOUR HOST NAME
WebLogicPort 7002



16- Ensure that the ${PLUGIN_HOME}/lib is included in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH

$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/myhome/weblogic-plugin-1.1/lib

other options include copying the 'lib' contents to APACHE_HOME/lib or

editing the APACHE_HOME/bin/apachectl to update the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
18- Start the apache server

$ ${APACHE_HOME}/bin/apachectl start


19- Start Admin Server and Managed Servers

17- Check your Application URL
example: http://Myhost/mywebapp

Weblogic Tools

D:\oracle\standalone-wl\wlserver_10.3\common\bin>config_builder.cmd
wls:/offline> createDomain ('D:/Middleware/wlserver_10.3/common/templates/domains/basic_Domain10.3.4.0.jar','D:/Middleware/user_project s/domains/hal','weblogic','PASSWORD')
wls:/offline>

Create Managed Servers

ls:/offline/hal>create ('ManagedServer Name "example la"', 'Server')
Proxy for la: Name=la, Type=Server
wls:/offline/hal>cd ('Server/la')
wls:/offline/hal/Server/la>set ('ListenPort', 8102)
wls:/offline/hal/Server/la>set ('ListenAddress', 'Host Name')

wls:/offline/hal/Server/la>cd ('/')

Create The second Managed Server
wls:/offline/hal>create ('usa', 'Server')
Proxy for usa: Name=usa, Type=Server
wls:/offline/hal>cd ('Server/usa')
wls:/offline/hal/Server/usa>set ('ListenPort', 8103)
wls:/offline/hal/Server/usa>set ('ListenAddress', 'Host Name')

Start Weblogic without providing password

In order to start Weblogic "AdminServe'r or ManagedServer" without password, you'll need to follow these steps;

Starting weblogic without password need a file call boot.properties. In this file you'll provide the weblogic user name & password.
- login as WLSowner
- cd /Weblogic_home/user_projects/domain/base_domains/server/"server_name" create a direcotry "security" # mkdir security
- cd security, vi boot.properties
- in the boot.properties file as the following lines
username= weblogic
password= XXXXXX
- save this file
- cd Weblogic_home/user_projects/domain/base_domains/bin
- on the prompt #nohup ./startWebLogic.sh &
