Installing LC on Weblogic - where to start?

Hello!
Please, a newbie in trouble here!
I have installed LC several times using the Turnkey installer and using JBoss, MySQL, etc.
Now I have to install it on Weblogic - where do I start?
Should I run the same installer I would use for JBoss?
Or is there another file I should run?
Please, help!
Marcos

Thank you!
I've found the download page and seen the files are over 2 GB.
Does the file include Weblogic or will it install on an environment where Weblogic should already be installed?
Thanks!
Marcos

How can I start or open Firefox?

HI SBPARK,
When you installed Firefox, did you uncheck the option to create a short cut?
In order to pin to the toolbar, when you have Firefox open, right click on the icon in the bar and select "Pin to task bar".

Hello Curtis,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to downlaod Mavericks. I recommend emptying your trash and restarting your computer. Once you have done that, navigat the the Purchased tab of the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks again:

Wls91 Authentication for user weblogic denied when starting

Hi,
I just installed wls91 and created a new domain using configuration wizard. I typed in username "admin" and password when it asked. Then I run startweblogic.cmd from \mydomain. But after it started it's keeping showing the Critical log on console. I didn't do any configuration yet. Of course there is no user "weblogic".
where the error coming from? Thanks

Hi,
My understanding is admin user server is coming up fine but when you try to bring the soa_server1(managed instance) is not coming up due the below mentioned exception.
If not please correct me.
I have a few query, please give me comment on this.
1) Admin and managed instances are running on the same box or different
2) Did you try to reset the password from console or using weblogic.security command
3) Did you cleared the soa_server1 temp directory(server/soa_server1/*)
Solution-1 (If Domain running on different box)
=============================
1) Copy the DefaultAuthenticatorInit.ldift file from Domain_dir/Security/ to Remote machine - Domain_dir/Security/
Note- Remote machine - take a backup of DefaultAuthenticatorInit file.
2) Remote machine- rename or take a backup of ldap directory and boot.properties file
/servers/soa_server1/ldap
/servers/soa_server1/security/boot.properties.
3) Now try to brought up the soa_server1.It will prompt you the username and password.
Please let me know.
Thanks,

OIM Domain on Weblogic Failed to Start

I was able to install WebLogic, Oracle Database and OIM.
Before installing OIM, I was able to start the domain I created on WebLogic at:
Start -> All Programs -> Oracle WebLogic -> User Projects -> oim_domain -> Start Admin Server for Weblogic Server Domain
where oim_domain is the name of the domain I have created.
However after I finished installing OIM, the same domain failed to start.
There is a security service runtime exception and the wls does not start

In addition if any one has detailed steps to do oim on weblogic server install successfully beyond just the oracle docs that would be great, thanks

start weblogic admin console with script xlStartWLS.bat which is created in directory "bea_home\user_projects\domains\oim_domain\bin"
That should start your weblogic admin console correctly.

How to install Workshop for WebLogic and WebLogic Portal?

Hi All,
I am new to Weblogic Portal. I would like to start learning Oracle Weblogic Portals..
Can anyone please guide me, how to install Workshop for WebLogic and WebLogic Portal?
As per the ""Tutorials – Getting Started with WebLogic Portal"" (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13155_01/wlp/docs103/tutorials/setup_dev_env.html)
we need to install the Workshop for WebLogic and WebLogic Portal.
Please suggest me where should i get the required environments/IDE?
Thanks,
Harish.

Hi Harish
1. If this is your first time with Weblogic Portal, I would recommend to download the latest Weblogic Portal Software Rel 10.3.2 from this bottom link. Check Accept Radio button, for windows download windows installer. Its about 1 GB file. This software includes Eclipse IDE, Weblogic Server and Weblogic Portal.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/wlp/index.html
2. During the installation process, make sure at one point you select Custom mode (NOT default Typical mode). In next following screens you will see all bundles checked EXCEPT for Samples. So make sure you check Samples Check box both under Weblogic Server and Weblogic Portal. Then proceed. This will install full Weblogic Workshop (Eclipse IDE), Weblogic Server and Weblogic Portal. This is the good installation package. Also it will install samples for Portal and Server. If you select all default typical mode, it will NOT install samples. You can install samples later on also, but its good at installation time itself you select custom and check Samples also.
3. WLP 10.3.2 uses Eclipse IDE. If you are familiar with Eclipse IDE this should be helpful. Otherwise also, its ok.
4. For learning WLP, in Eclipse IDE, you need to create Portal EAR Project, then Portal Web Project. Inside portal web project create simple jsp hello world portlets and a simple portal.
5. For Deploying and Testing Portal application you need to create Portal Domain using config wizard. You can see this from Start -> Programs -> Oracle Weblogic Portal shortcut -> Weblogic Server -> Tools -> Configuration Wizard.
6. You can start Workshop IDE from Start -> Program Files -> Oracle Weblogic Portal ...-> Eclipse For Weblogic 10.3.2
Here are the links for quick start guide for portal development. Please do refer them.

Running iTunes from external hard drive, new computer, where to start?

I've seen several threads relating to this, but I'm a bit confused. For some time we have been running iTunes from an external hard drive with no issues. We now have a new laptop with windows 8, and I'm not sure where to start to set up iTunes (we replaced the computer with a laptop). Do I need to do a new install of iTunes on the laptop? Do I install it to the hard drive (C) or to the external drive (G)? My biggest source of concern is losing the library. I also want to be sure that we can continue to run iTunes from the external drive, I don't want it taking up space on the laptop hard drive.

With more & more people looking towards external drives as a storage solution, it's important to warn them, that although using one within iTunes is a great idea, it comes with its issues & can be a step towards a disastrous sequence. In such a scenario, each time iTunes is launched it'll look for the library that resides on the external drive, & if that drive's not connected, iTunes will open with an empty library. You know what's comming next, rite ? An empty iDevice. This happens because 'by default' iTunes is set to Auto-Sync & if you're using an external drive, the potential for a messy problem goes way up. So in short, remember these points. when using an external drive(library).
. Always connect your external drive prior to lauching iTunes.
. Always ensure iTunes sees your external library prior to connecting your iDevice.
. Disable the 'Auto-Sync' feature from within iTunes prior to connecting your iDevice.
. Always wait to connect your iDevice until thee aforementioned points are confirmed.
As stated earlier, using an external drive with iTunes isn't a problem in & by itself. But if the external drive's disconnected & the 'Auto-Sync' feature's left at its default setting(enabled), a family member could loose all their data simply by connecting their iDevice to the PC/Mac. Or be in for a time consuming lesson.
PS: At the very least one should research the topic themselves. http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/a/Itunes-External-Hard-Drive.htm

Where to start in Oracle Apps R12

Hi
I am completely new in Oracle Apps. I have lot of experience in Microsoft technologies (SQL Server, .Net) but never worked in Oracle Apps before. Now trying to learn it.
I installed Oracle Apps R12 on a virtual linux machine for learning. I selected "empty database" at the time of installation (i.e. not Vision installation) and logged in as sysadmin. But now I don't know where to start. Let's say I want to use the Financials module to enter some fake data and then create a report. Where do I start? I searched in Google but looks like none of the "beginner's tutorial" have that info.
Can someone help me or direct me to some tutorial/documentation which will help me to start?
Thanks for your help.

Solaris 10 IPoIB, where to start?

I have Mellanox Technologies MT25418 [ConnectX VPI PCIe 2.0 2.5GT/s - IB DDR / 10GigE] cards in my new Solaris 5.10 cluster (9 nodes).
I need to be able to ssh between the nodes via IB (I think using IPoIB). I really don't know where to start in getting things up and running. So far I have installed:
Sun Studio 12.1
Sun ClusterTools 8.2.1
IB Updates 3.1 (so that I could update the firmware on the ConnectX cards)
# cfgadm
Ap_Id                          Type         Receptacle   Occupant     Condition

ib                             IB-Fabric    connected    configured   okI don't see any reference to ib under ifconfig (assuming I should).
I really don't have a roadmap of what to do next. I have done a lot of searching and can't really seem to find what I think I am looking for. Can someone point me in the direction of some docs or something that will guide me through the process?

It just shows my two ethernet ports.

I want to run "SAP" on my PC - where to start?

Hello,
I'm seeking a career at a company that has "knowledge of SAP" as one of their requirements - this is for a position in Finance. I've watched some tutorials on SAP, specifically the "FI/CO" features - and thought that I would give it a try by installing it on my PC. Now, I'm technically literate - but I've never used this application, so before I start I have some questions.
What is SAP? Specifically, is (the client side) one APP with built-in features that does all kinds of things? Or is it something like Lotus Notes, where the base app does nothing, and you need to install modules from your employer that actually do things?
What is the difference between SAP Netweaver Application Server, ABAP GUI, and SAP ONE? The way I understand it, I need to install and run the application server from my pc (I have Windows Server 2008 R2), and then which is my client application where I would do the actual work? The ABAP GUI or the SAP One?
This is one of the videos (SAP FICO Video Training - New General Ledger, Segment Reporting, Validations and Substitutions - YouTube) that I watched, and wondered if I can do that on my PC, and with what applications.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but from reading articles and other documentation I'm still unsure of where to start - and thought I'd get a definite answer here.
Thank you

Where to start updating?

I can not sync my iphone 4 or iphone 5s with my itunes. It says I need to update to the latest itunes but I can not download the updated itunes because I need to update my os x. I tried downloading os x 10.6.8 but it says I first need 10.6 and it wont let me download anything. I just dont know where to start. I just want to be able to access my phone through itunes again.

You can't download Snow Leopard 10.6.
You must purchase the Snow Leopard install DVD from Apple.
Once you install that then 10.6.8 will update for you.

Note that you have to use corresponding version number when using Fusion Middleware, such as SOA Suite.
This means when you are working with SOA Suite 11.1.1.5 you have to use WebLogic 10.3.5, when using SOA Suite 11.1.1.6 you must use WebLogic 10.3.6.
The last numbers correspond. Also WebLogic 12c is a Java EE6 application server and all the WebLogic 10.3 are Java EE5. You can imagine that it might
get you into trouble when you are using software that is build (and tested) for a WebLogic 10.3 Server and run that on 12c. Sometimes it goes
alright sometimes it does not, so it is better use the version for which it is meant to run on.

New Open Source Broadcom WIFI driver, where to start?

Hello I want to install new Broadcom Open Source driver brcm80211 for my Broadcom BCM43225 WIFI card but I'm kinda confused where to start. First of all this driver is not available in Arch repositories nor AUR, so I guess there's only GIT way in which I'm not too much familiar. At the moment only Debian has this driver available in it's backports kernel but that is useless for Arch Linux user, except for the firmware loading instructions. So please help me, I have exported the whole 500MB+ git "next staging" tree, and now I would like to figure it out how to compile brcm80211 module and eventually use it with Arch kernel. Thanks in advance.
Last edited by Riot777 (2010-09-28 23:00:45)

I spent close to an hour shortly after it was added to the staging-next branch and managed to compile it against 2.6.35.4 (not sure about the .4 part however). Unfortunately, it wasn't especially stable and got some kernel oops on suspend. After that, I went back to using the wl module.
Recent changes don't look like they could have improved the stability of the driver by much, so I'd advise against using it for now.
With the above said, if you're feeling adventurous you can build the driver as follows:
0. Make sure you have the `base-devel' group installed, along with `kernel26-headers' (preferably version 2.6.35.6-2 as 2.6.35.6-1 had some issues) and `linux-firmware' 20100911-1 (the one in [core] doesn't contain the firmware files for brcm80211 AFAIK).
1. Grab just the brcm80211 directory from the staging-next branch by clicking the `snapshot' link on this page.
2. Extract the compressed tarball and then open a terminal inside the staging-next-2.6-x directory that gets created.
3. Change the Makefile a little by running `curl -s http://ompldr.org/vNW82NA/Makefile.patch | patch -Np0'. After that, run `make'.
4. Now, you should have the compiled module `brcm80211.ko' in the current directory, which you can copy into `/lib/modules/2.6.35-ARCH/updates/'. (Create the updates directory if it doesn't exist.)
I didn't test the above steps thoroughly and I'm not certain this is the correct way to build the driver. However, I believe it'll get you a working kernel module.
