I would like to configure a WebLogic 12c server. I don't see a Weblogic 12 option. Is it not yet supported?

Tod,

I am afraid, we currently do not provide support for WebLogic 12. I have added a feature request for the same. Weblogic 10 support is not planned for the next release of 10.1. I shall escalate your request to management to add to MyEclipse 11 release.

That is very bad news for me! We have a reasonably large set of developers here -- I would think that it would be in your best interest to support popular servers in a very timely fashion. When is MyEclipse 11 set for release? Is there a work-around? I tried hooking up the WebLogic 10.x connector to 12c but it (not too surprisingly) didn't work. Is my only solution to go back to regular Eclipse for now (forever?)

Thanks!

Tod,

I'm afraid we can't give precise dates on upcoming releases, until closer to the time.

The good news is that I ran WebLogic 12c with the 10.x connector and deployed a simple Web application to it successfully.

I had a problem with the first run but followed the instructions in the error message to copy some endorsed libraries to the jre/lib/endorsed folder of the specified JDK (the path of which is mentioned at the top of the console view that contains the error message). The JDK can be changed in the server connector configuration. This is the error message I received:

Code:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError: JAX-WS 2.2 API is required, but an older version was found in the JDK. Use the endorsed standards override mechanism (http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/standards/). 1) locate the bundled Java EE 6 endorsed directory in $WL_HOME/endorsed. 2) copy those JAR files to $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/endorsed OR add the endorsed directory to the value specified by system property java.endorsed.dirs.    at utils.ValidateJavaEE6EndorsedOverrides.validateLib(ValidateJavaEE6EndorsedOverrides.java:55)    at utils.ValidateJavaEE6EndorsedOverrides.validateEndorsedOverrides(ValidateJavaEE6EndorsedOverrides.java:32)    at weblogic.Server.main(Server.java:61)

I'm not sure if full support is there, but the deployed web applications runs and detects changes. You can also change the name by clicking on Create Launch Configuration of the Launch page of the connector configuration. The default name can be changed to, for example, "WebLogic 12c", which might be less confusing (you can then disable the main WebLogic 10.x connector, to remove it from the list of servers).

Please let us know if this works for you. If you had a different error message on startup, please post it here.
