Deploying and undeploying applications

IBM Rational Developer does not have a direct counterpart to the WebLogic Server concept of deploying an application or undeploying an application.

To deploy an application to WebLogic Server using IBM Rational Developer, you add your enterprise application project to the WebLogic server (in the Servers view, right-click the WebLogic server and select Add and remove projects) and then publish.

Similarly, to undeploy an application, remove it from the server and then publish.

Notes:

  1. All deployment and undeployment should be done using IBM Rational Developer as described above, not through the WebLogic Server console. If an application has been deployed using the WebLogic Server console, then it should also be undeployed with the WebLogic Server console. In other words, deployment and undeployment should both be done with IBM Rational Developer or should both be done with the WebLogic Server console.
  2. Do not use the same WebLogic domain for more than one server configuration. The server configuration contains deployment information specific to the associated domain. This is why you cannot change the domain after creating the server configuration. If you delete the server configuration, the associated domain will likely not be reusable. We recommend using only new (or very clean) domains when creating WebLogic server configurations.
