This topic describes how to start the WebLogic Server installation in console mode in different environments.
Console Mode installation allows you to install the WebLogic Server through command line.
Console Mode Installation (using Package installers) on Windows
Follow these steps to install the WebLogic Server using console mode on a Windows platform
Log in to the Windows system.
Open a command prompt
Go to the directory that contains the installation program.
Start the installation by executing the below command
wls1036_win32.exe -mode=console
You can include the log option to create a verbose installation log and temporary directory path and in the command line
wls1036_win32.exe -mode=console -log=C:\Installation_log -Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\Temp
Console Mode Installation (using Package installers) on Unix Machines
To start the console mode installation process with .bin installation files, follow these steps.
Log in to the target UNIX system.
Go to the directory that contains the installation program.
chmod a+x <.bin installation file>
Launch the installation by entering the following commands:
./<.bin installation file> -mode=console
You can include the log option to create a verbose installation log and temporary directory path and in the command line
./<.bin installation file> -mode=console -log=<path to the logfile> -Djava.io.tmpdir=<tmpdirpath>
Ex:
chmod a+x wls1036_linux32.bin
./wls1036_linux32.bin -mode=console (or)
./wls1036_linux32.bin -mode=console -log=/u01/installationlog.txt -Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp
Console Mode Installation by using Generic WebLogic Installer on Windows and Unix Machines
To start the installation program in console mode for installation files with names ending in .jar, perform the following steps.
Set the appropriate JDK Path to the PATH variable definition as below:
JAVA_HOME=path_to_JDK;
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH;
export $PATH
Go to the directory where you downloaded the installation program and launch the installation program by entering the following command
java -jar /u01/wls1036_generic.jar -mode=console (or)
java -jar /u01/wls1036_generic.jar -mode=console -log=/u01/installationlog.txt -Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp
Installing WebLogic Server on 64-Bit Platforms Using a 64-Bit JDK
If you are installing WebLogic Server on a 64-bit platform execute the below command
java -d64 -jar wlsversion_generic.jar -mode=console
