"Invalid Java Home" when installing Weblogic 10.3.1 on Mac OS X 10.6

I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm trying to install the generic [Weblogic 11g (10.3.1)|http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls/wls1031_generic.jar] on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), which supposedly has a JDK 1.6 installed.
It can't seem to find a JDK, and when I tell it to use the following:
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home
I get an "Invalid Java Home" error.
Has anyone successfully done this on OS X 10.6?

Just as an update, we're soon to release the WLS 11g R1 PS2 update, which will contain WLS 10.3.3 just to confuse things.
As part of that, we're distributing for the first time, an additional .zip version of WLS to make it easier for developers.
The zip file distribution has no GUI installer -- it's a simple case of unzip, run a script it provides, then start the server.
The zip file distribution has been specifically tested on Mac OS X and the WLS config/domain scripts automatically adjust as necessary for the Mac OS X java environment.
Once the zip file distribution is available, we hope that developing against WLS on Mac OS X (and Windows/Linux) will be an easier task.

"Invalid Java Home" when installing Oracle Weblogic 11g (10.3.1)

Hi folks,
I'm trying to install Oracle's Weblogic 11g (10.3.1)
(http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls/wls1031_generic.jar)
The installer starts, but does not detect the JDK home (which I expected). It does however let you browse the file system to select a home. I've tried selecting the following:
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home
but I get an "Invalid Java Home" error.
According to the documentation, Weblogic should run on a 1.6 JDK.
I notice that there are a few other Java related issues on these forums. Does anybody have any clues?
It sounds like the Apple JDK needs patching to make it usable by some Java apps. Bring on the 10.6 Java patch!

Just letting everyone know that the answer can be found here:
http://blogs.oracle.com/emorales/2009/06/weblogicover_mac_osx.html
It seems that we have to "dummy up" a jre/lib directory to fool the Weblogic JDK detection check.

Invalid Java Home

I am trying to install WebLogic on a 64-bit Cent-OS server. I have read instructions all over the place but no matter what I try I keep getting the error message "Invalid Java Home" when I get to the JDK selection section. I have tried the interactive mode and the graphic mode with the same results. I don't seem to be able to generate a log file either. What home am I suppose to be pointing this to? I have the installation jar file in the following location:
/oracle/software/WebLogic_Server/wls1035_generic.jar
I have the JAVA_HOME set to /usr/java/jre1.6.0_18 and the PATH set to $JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH or /usr/java/jre1.6.0_18/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/emgc/bin. I have also verified that there is plenty of space available.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Your JAVA_HOME env variable seems to be pointing to a JRE home directory ( /usr/java/jre1.6.0_18 ) instead of a JDK home directory (which should be something like /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_18 )
It might be a documentation issue, or there could be some issue with the currently installed Sun JDK and you should consider using JRockit 64 bit instead.

"Invalid Java Home ...." .Installing the JDeveloper Studio Edition ---Mac

Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 9.2MP3 on Solaris 9 or 10

Insufficient disk space when installing Weblogic 923 on Solaris 9 or 10 using bin file installer :
bash-2.05$ ./server923_solaris32.bin -mode=console
** Insufficient disk space! The installer requires:
** 132MB for the BEA Home at /mnt/home2/i817284/sol_usphlcsx0003/wl92 and
** 664MB temporary work space at /var/tmp/aaa1baaJn.
** There is only 0MB available at /mnt/home2.
There are more than enough (several gigs) of free space in all those directories as verified by df -k...
Solution for jar file doesn't work, obviously ;)

bumping this up in hopes of an answer....
it appears that the jar installer works fine, the problem is with .bin installers only.....
in install docs found proposed solution of "use df compatible with used posix" - that must be a joke, right ??
we're supposed to replace df that comes with OS with some version that works with posix used by the installer ?? Really ?@?@?

Invalid Serial Number when installing Acrobat 9 on new PC

Invalid Serial Number when installing Acrobat 9 on new PC

I wonder if this is related to the previous version issue with Acrobat 8 that displayed the same or similar error?
Here is the text from a very old document for Acrobat 8 KB if you want to try it but I don't know if it will work
Error: "You have entered an invalid serial number..." when you try to launch Acrobat 8 Standard on a Dell computer
Issue
When you try to launch Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard on a Dell computer, the program returns the error message, "You have entered an invalid serial number. Please re-install Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and enter a valid serial number when asked."
Solution
Check the alm_config_files folder for a duplicate AdobeConfig.xml file.
Navigate to the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\alm_config_files
The following two files should appear in this folder:
AdobeConfig.xml
AdobeConfig.xml.aiwbf
Delete the AdobeConfig.xml file.
Rename the AdobeConfig.xml.aiwbf to AdobeConfig.xml by deleting the "aiwbf" suffix.
Launch Acrobat 8 Standard.
Additional Information
On some Dell computers, a duplicate AdobeConfig.xml file is created when Acrobat 8 Standard is installed. The AdobeConfig.xml file without the "aiwbf" suffix is written for a volume-license version. The correct AdobeConfig.xml file is given the suffix. When a retail version of Acrobat tries to read the volume-license AdobeConfig.xml file, Acrobat returns the error.

"Invalid serial number" when installing Toshiba utilities on NB200-13J

This model (13J) is the government-sponsored student edition used by thousands of Greek pupils and is not listed in the Support downloads.
I made a new partition and installed XP SP3 Pro, in addition to the standard XP Home. I downloaded all the drivers for the model number printed on the sticker (PLL25E-00401WMG, which I assume corresponds to NB200-122 in the Driver Downloads).
Most of the important Toshiba utilities (Hardware Setup, Hotkey, Value Added Logical Device) terminate with the error "Wrong serial number".
Given that the Toshiba utilities work fine in the standard (old) installation,
1. Is there a way to bypass the serial number checking for the installation of Toshiba utilities?
2. Are there specific Toshiba downloads for NB200-13J ?

I apologise for the long post, but I am afraid that sooner or later other users of NB200 will (stumble on the same issues.)
Dear Timox, thank you for this interesting scenario, and let me offer my first thoughts. I have already seen this theme of installation sequencing in the forums, and my sequence was about the same - first non-Toshiba stuff and then Toshiba stuff.
You and other forum members say that the order is "very important" and of course I'd like to know *why* the order is important. A possible answer would be that each utility expects something else already having been installed. If this was the case, i.e. that users should follow a linear sequence of installation, wouldn't it be very easy for the developers to embed error messages in each utility like "please install utility X first and retry installation"?. In the same line of thought, developers could have bundled everything in one big executable and offer it for use in clean installation scenarios. If the "why" of the specific sequence is not stated explicitly, the "importance" of installation sequence still remains in the realm of magic.
Having said all that, I deleted the windows installation and started anew.
Non-Toshiba stuff in the beginning of your list were ok (I do them the same way for some 15 years now).
ConfigFree was the first in your list to misbehave, issuing the infamous in these forums message "This program only works on a Toshiba System". When I saw this I knew I was doomed. This error a1lone is sufficient for me to claim that the "importance of installation order" is a myth, and that this and the other Toshiba utilities listed below do not recognise my machine.
Here are my results:
TOSHIBA Configfree - This program only works on a Toshiba System
On reboot, and on any reboot, Configfree presents the same message.
TOSHIBA Hotkey - The serial number is invalid.
TOSHIBA Hardware setup - The serial number is invalid.
Toshiba Zooming utility - OK
Toshiba Zooming utility driver - OK
TOSHIBA Password Utility - The serial number is invalid
Toshiba Fn-esse - OK
TOSHIBA Accessibility - The serial number is invalid
TOSHIBA Touchpad On_Off - The serial number is invalid
TOSHIBA Power Saver - OK
TOSHIBA Power Saver Driver - OK
On reboot (and in all subsequent reboots) I get
"A fatal error has occurred. The program has terminated. code: 0x47F
PC Diagnostics - OK
Running PCDiag gives the following:
Model Name: Unknown
Part Number: Unknown
Serial Number: Unknown
Serial Number: Unknown
OS Version: Unknown
BIOS Version: Unknown
Physical Memory: Unknown
Testing CPU and Memory gives PASS results.
SD Memory Utilities - OK
HDD Protection - OK
3G, Driver RF, Wireless manager & Network Device ID Registry Setting Tool - not applicable for NB200-13J
TOSHIBA Value Added Logical device - NOT in your list and from what I read, very vital for NB200, does not install at all, as if the file were damaged. I had to manually decompress setup.exe and run the resulting DPInst.exe, after which TVALD says it installed fine.
This completes the clean installation saga.
Now, checking the Services, only Toshiba Bluetooth is listed.
Checking running processes with Sysinternals Process Explorer, I see the following Toshiba-related running processes:
CFSvcs - Service of Configfree (supposedly "only working for Toshiba systems" and not mine!!!)
ThpSrv.exe - TOSHIBA HDD Protection Service
TosBtSrv.exe - TOSHIBA Bluetooth Service
ZoomingHook.exe - TOSHIBA Zooming utility Hotkey Hook
Smoothview.exe - Smoothview (by TOSHIBA)
TosBTMng.exe and under it another 6 Bluetooth-related processes
_Preliminary conclusions and alternative theories:_
1. My windows may be missing some service(s), prerequisite for the Toshiba utilities, or there is a specific mandatory locale/configuration to be used when installing them, or MSDN OSs are not compatible, etc etc XP-related dark matter.
2. NB200-13J is not compatible with the utilities.
3. My EEPROM contents were somehow corrupt (from what I read many Tosh laptops suffer from this) and I need to reprogram them with the DMI Update Utility (see e.g. http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/7011-toshiba-notebook-dmi-updates-for-wrong-error-message/) or with special startup disks (from what I read, not yet issued for the NB200 series)
4. I am missing a non-public Toshiba utility/driver, provided only to major vendors (and not to end customers) in order to customise their windows pre-installations.
5. Some conspiracy theory, like the one saying that Toshiba Corporation succumbs to pressures from Microsoft Corporation to poison or kill XP in laptops/netbooks (...)
6. I am using the wrong fairy stardust.
_Next step_: I'll compare the services and processes running on the original windows with the ones on the clean installation and see what is missing.
In the meantime, any more ideas would be greatly appreciated... (to be continued!)

I think your Java environment is a little out of date. I believe JDK 1.6.0_11 or higher is required for Weblogic 10.3.3
You can get an updated version at

Also recommend you uninstall the IBM Java build you currently have installed.

Is Coherence necessary when installing Weblogic Suite?

We will be using Forms/Reports and would prefer to keep the WLS install to a minimum.
Thanks

Hi
Absolutely NOT. Coherence is a cluster aware Caching Framework from Oracle that got merged with BEA Weblogic Server. So, there is absolutely NO need to install Coherence. While installing Weblogic Server, choose the option Custom (instead of default) and UnCheck Coherence and Coherence Samples. And you are good to go.
NOW, incase down the lines if you feel a need for this, you can install it again on top the same weblogic. Just run the installer and select above home. It simply says weblogic is already there and will show only Coherence. So you can install Coherence anytime in future also.
Thanks

Any ideas ?

Hi..
They changed a few things in 10.3.. see http://edocs.bea.com/common/docs103/install/silent.html#wp1044118
looks like the Server sub category has changed to Core Application Server..
If you checkout the log.txt file in the logs directory of the root where you've installed a copy using the gui, it generally lists all the installation options available.
..Mark.

Error when install weblogic 10.3.4

Hi
i am getting this error after write user in start admin server.
Server is Running in Production Mode and Native Library(terminalio) to read the password securely from commandline is not found.
I search solution and says i must write user / password on file but i dont want to set default initialization user/pass.. for security i prefer write user and password all time..
My machine have Windows Server 2008. what could be the problem of the installation?

Hi,
Have you tried to use the java library instead of the native library? This might impact your performance though...
Either way, I think it's best to provide the user/password in the boot.properties file. The entries will be encrypted by weblogic.
You still need to provide user/password when you want to enter the admin console and all.

Invalid login credentials when install oracle xe

Had same login credentials problem today (and pwd was spelt as it always is). No way was I getting in via frontend or SqlPlus or using any online tip.
Deinstalled and reinstalled several times according to instructions. Note that ¨/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure¨ doesn´t re-run unless you update ¨/etc/default/oracle-xe¨ file with ¨CONFIGURE_RUN=false¨
