  • You can download the latest Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g software from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN):

    http://www.oracle.com/technology/
    

    Note:

    If you have not installed Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.2.0 on your machine, you must download both 11.1.1.2.0 and 11.1.1.3.0 versions of the software. You must install the 11.1.1.2.0 version by choosing the Install Software - Do Not Configure option. Then you must patch the 11.1.1.2.0 software by running the 11.1.1.3.0 Patch Set Installer.

    For information about downloading Oracle WebLogic Server, see "Product Distribution" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server.

  • At the time this document was published, the latest release of Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g was 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.3.0), which provides new features and capabilities that supersede those available in Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.1.0) and 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.2.0).

  • Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g also requires the latest version of Oracle WebLogic Server. At the time this document was published, the latest version of Oracle WebLogic Server was Oracle WebLogic Server 11g (10.3.3).

  • For complete information about patching your Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g to the latest release, refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Patching Guide.

5.1.2 Installing Oracle WebLogic Server and Creating the Middleware Home

Oracle Identity Management requires Oracle WebLogic Server and a Middleware home directory.

For more information, see "Install Oracle WebLogic Server" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Planning Guide. In addition, see "Running the Installation Program in Graphical Mode" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server.

.

Note:

If you are installing Oracle Internet Directory 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) without an Oracle WebLogic administration domain, you do not need to install Oracle WebLogic.

Perform the following steps to install Oracle WebLogic Server and create the Oracle Middleware Home directory. You can refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server for complete information about installing Oracle WebLogic Server.

  1. Insert the Oracle WebLogic Server CD-ROM or download the Oracle WebLogic Server Installer from the following Web site:

    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/wls_main.html
    
  2. Locate the appropriate executable file for your system, such as:

    • wls1033_linux32.bin for 32-bit Linux systems

    • wls1033_win32.exe for 32-bit Windows systems

    • wls1033_generic.jar for all 64-bit platforms

    The 32-bit executable files are bundled with the appropriate JDK version. If you use the 64-bit installer, you will need to invoke the installer with a supported JDK for your platform. This JDK must be installed on your system before you install Oracle WebLogic Server. Refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware certification document for a list of supported JDKs for your platform:

    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/fusion_certification.html
    

    For more information about downloading Oracle WebLogic Server, see "Product Distribution" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server.

  3. Run the Oracle WebLogic Server Installer directly from the CD-ROM, or copy the file to your local system and run it locally. For 64-bit installations:

    • Before running the installer, set the DISPLAY environment variable on your system.

    • Replace JAVA_HOME with the installation location of the supported JDK you installed for your platform.

    • Use the -d64 flag when using 32/64-bit hybrid JDKs (such as the HP JDK for HP-UX and SUN JDK for Solaris SPARC).

    • Execute JAVA_HOME/bin/java -version (or JAVA_HOME/bin/java -d64 -version on 32/64-bit hybrid JDKs) to ensure that your JAVA_HOME refers to a 64-bit JDK.

    Examples for 32-bit systems:

    Linux:

    ./wls1033_linux32.bin
    

    Windows:

    wls1033_win32.exe
    

    Examples for 64-bit systems:

    UNIX:

    JAVA_HOME/bin/java -jar wls1033_generic.jar
    

    or

    JAVA_HOME/bin/java -d64 -jar wls1033_generic.jar
    

    Windows:

    JAVA_HOME\bin\java -jar wls1033_generic.jar
    

    Note:

    After you start the Oracle WebLogic Server Installer, the Welcome screen appears.
  4. Click Next. The Choose Middleware Home Directory screen appears.

  5. Select Create a new Middleware Home and identify the desired location for your new Middleware Home directory, which is the top-level directory for all Oracle Fusion Middleware products. The WebLogic Home directory will be created inside the Middleware Home directory.

    Note:

    If the Middleware Home directory already exists on your system, it must be an empty directory.

    Click Next. The Register for Security Updates screen appears.

  6. Select whether or not you want to receive the latest product and security updates. If you choose not to receive anything, you will be asked to verify your selection before continuing.

    Click Next. The Choose Install Type screen appears.

  7. Select Typical and click Next. The Choose Product Installation Directories screen appears.

  8. Specify the desired location for your WebLogic Server Home directory and click Next.

    If you are installing Oracle WebLogic Server on a UNIX system, the Installation Summary screen appears. Go to step 9 now.

    If you are installing Oracle WebLogic Server on a Windows system, the Choose Shortcut Location screen appears. Specify a location where you want Windows to create a shortcut to Oracle products and click Next. The Installation Summary screen appears.

  9. Click Next on the Installation Summary screen.

    The Installation Progress screen appears.

  10. Click Next. The Installation Complete screen appears.

  11. De-select Run Quickstart and click Done to exit the Installer.

Notes:

  • The same user that installed Oracle WebLogic Server must install Oracle Identity Management.

  • Do not log in to the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console during Oracle Identity Management installation.
