Answer 1

Hi,
Make sure your java version (it should be jdk/jrockit 1.6.0_31 and above) and looback adaptor (static ip) setted
try to make sure below steps also,
1. Install a 64-bit JDK for your operating system, for example jrockit-jdk1.6.0_31-R28.2.3-4.1.0 64bit type
2. Install Weblogic Server10.3.5/6 (using the generic installer) and select the 64-bit JDK installed in step 1
Example installaing weblogic 10.3.6
C:\>cd C:\Program Files\Java\jrockit-jdk1.6.0_31-R28.2.3-4.1.0\bin
C:\Program Files\Java\jrockit-jdk1.6.0_31-R28.2.3-4.1.0\bin>java -D64 -jar E:\Sh
are_DEV\OBIEE11g_Latest\wls1036_generic.jar
Extracting 0%..........100%
3. Install RCU(11.1.1.6.0)
4. Install OBIEE11g, choosing the 'software-only' installation type.
5. Execute the Configuration Assistant to configure your installation.
FYI:check the certification matrix
