Creating a Connection to BEA WebLogic

JDeveloper supports deployment of J2EE EJB deployment profiles created in JDeveloper to BEA WebLogic 6.1 or WebLogic 7.0SP1 application servers. Before you deploy, copy the weblogic.jar file and create a WebLogic connection in JDeveloper.

To create a connection to a BEA WebLogic instance:

Copy the weblogic.jar file from your WebLogic installation directory (the default location isc:/bea/wlserverx/lib) to the following JDeveloper directory:

<jdev_install>/jdev/lib/ext
In the Navigator, click + to expand the Connections node.
Right-click Application Servers.
Choose New Connections from the context menu.
The Connection Wizard - Welcome page is displayed.
Click Next.
Enter a Connection Name for this connection.
Choose Weblogic Server 6.x or Weblogic Server 7.x from the Connection Type list box.
Click Next.
In the Username field, enter the administrator's user name to access the WebLogic server. This name was specified when the WebLogic server was installed.
In the Password field, enter the administrator's password to access the WebLogic server. This name was specified when the WebLogic server was installed.
Select the Deploy Password checkbox if you want to bypass authentication the next time you make this connection.
Click Next.
Configure the WebLogic connection information as required. Click Help for more information.
Click Next.
Click Test Connection.
If your connection is successful, click Finish. Otherwise, click Back to return to the previous wizard pages and fix any configuration(s) setting.
The configuration to deploy your J2EE applications on the WebLogic application server is complete.

Notes:

If the default configuration is used, you should be able to access the WebLogic application server at:
http://localhost:7001
