Hi All,

I am trying to install Weblogic in silent mode for the first time. At first I tried to use the steps mentioned here: http:// www.toadworld.com/platforms/oracle/b/weblog/archive/2015/01/29/mastering-silent-mode-installing-configuring-and-creating-a-weblogic-c luster.aspx

Following is all the code I used for installation:

groupadd -g 666 oinstall
useradd -u 666 -g oinstall -G oinstall oracle
passwd oracle --Passw0rd

mkdir -p /u01/oracle/inventory
mkdir /home/oracle
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
chown -R oracle:oinstall /home/oracle
chmod -R 775 /u01

vi /etc/oraInst.loc -- You have to create this file. Content is:
	inventory_loc=/u01/oracle/inventory
	inst_group=oinstall

chown oracle:oinstall /etc/oraInst.loc
chmod 775 /etc/oraInst.loc

su - oracle

vi /home/oracle/Install.rsp -- You have to create this file. Content is:

	[ENGINE]

	#DO NOT CHANGE THIS.
	Response File Version=1.0.0.0.0

	[GENERIC]

	#The oracle home location. This can be an existing Oracle Home or a new Oracle Home
	ORACLE_HOME=/u01/oracle/middleware

	#Set this variable value to the Installation Type selected. e.g. Fusion Middleware Infrastructure, Fusion Middleware Infrastructure With Examples.
	INSTALL_TYPE=WebLogic Server

	#Provide the My Oracle Support Username. If you wish to ignore Oracle Configuration Manager configuration provide empty string for user name.
	MYORACLESUPPORT_USERNAME=

	#Provide the My Oracle Support Password
	MYORACLESUPPORT_PASSWORD=<SECURE VALUE>

	#Set this to true if you wish to decline the security updates. Setting this to true and providing empty string for My Oracle Support username will ignore the Oracle Configuration Manager configuration
	DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true

	#Set this to true if My Oracle Support Password is specified
	SECURITY_UPDATES_VIA_MYORACLESUPPORT=false

	#Provide the Proxy Host
	PROXY_HOST=

	#Provide the Proxy Port
	PROXY_PORT=

	#Provide the Proxy Username
	PROXY_USER=

	#Provide the Proxy Password
	PROXY_PWD=<SECURE VALUE>

	#Type String (URL format) Indicates the OCM Repeater URL which should be of the format [scheme[Http/Https]]://[repeater host]:[repeater port]
	COLLECTOR_SUPPORTHUB_URL=

export WL_HOME=/u01/oracle/middleware/wlserver
java -jar wls121300.jar -silent -invPtrLoc /etc/oraInst.loc -responseFile /home/oracle/Install.rsp -logfile /home/oracle/wlsInstall.log

The user oracle has its own directory. I created oraInst.loc and Install.rsp files and response file is located in the home dir along with the installation jar file. All the folders and subfolders I created as target directory (/u01 and rest) belongs to oracle:oinstall. Oracle user is also in sudoers list.

Although I followed each and every step, I am having this error while installing:

I don't know why this is happening. Can you please help?

Hi,

I want to add that I also tried silent.xml but it didn't work as well. These are the sample silent.xml files I used:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<bea-installer>
	<input-fields>
		<data-value value="D:\WLS11g"/>
		<data-value name="WLS_INSTALL_DIR" value="D:\WLS11g\wlserver_10.3"/>
		<data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS"
			value="WebLogic Server/Core Application Server|WebLogic Server/Administration Console|WebLogic Server/Configuration Wizard and Upgrade Framework|WebLogic Server/Web 2.0 HTTP Pub-Sub Server|WebLogic Server/WebLogic JDBC Drivers|WebLogic Server/Third Party JDBC Drivers|WebLogic Server/WebLogic Server Clients|WebLogic Server/WebLogic Web Server Plugins|WebLogic Server/UDDI and Xquery Support|WebLogic Server/Server Examples"/>
		<data-value name="INSTALL_NODE_MANAGER_SERVICE" value="yes" 
		<data-value name="NODEMGR_PORT" value="5559" />
		<data-value name="INSTALL_SHORTCUT_IN_ALL_USERS_FOLDER" value="yes"/>
	</input-fields>
</bea-installer>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<bea-installer>
	<input-fields>

		<data-value name="WLS_INSTALL_DIR" value="/u01/oracle/middleware/wls12.1.3" />
</input-fields>
</bea-installer>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<bea-installer>
  <input-fields>
  <data-value name="BEAHOME" value="/u01/oracle" />
  <data-value name="WLS_INSTALL_DIR" value="/u01/oracle/weblogic10.3.3" />
  <data-value name="WLW_INSTALL_DIR" value="/u01/oracle/workshop10.3.3" />
  <data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS" value="WebLogic Server" />
  <data-value name="INSTALL_NODE_MANAGER_SERVICE" value="yes" />
  <data-value name="NODEMGR_PORT" value="5559" />
  </input-fields>
</bea-installer>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<domain-template-descriptor> 

<input-fields> 
   <data-value name="BEAHOME"                   value="/u01/oracle" /> 
   <data-value name="USER_INSTALL_DIR"          value="/u01/oracle/weblogic10.3.3" /> 
   <data-value name="INSTALL_NODE_MANAGER_SERVICE"   value="no" />
   <data-value name="COMPONENT_PATHS" value="WebLogic Server|WebLogic Workshop|WebLogic Integration|WebLogic Portal" />
</input-fields> 
</domain-template-descriptor>

The command I used to run the installer is: java -jar wls121300.jar -mode=silent -silent_xml=/home/me/silent.xml

This command failed saying there is no GUI support. Therefore I used: java -jar wls121300.jar -mode=silent -silent_xml=/home/me/silent.xml -silent and this start the silent installation but failed as well. The error is as follows:

Launcher log file is /tmp/OraInstall2015-06-25_02-25-34PM/launcher2015-06-25_02-25-34PM.log.
