Start a WebLogic Server

The Ant target for starting a WebLogic server is:

build startserver

and requires the following option:

-Dserver.name
The name of the server to be started.

The following parameter is optional and is only needed where the CuramMBean.jar file has been placed in a directory other than the default <WebLogic Server Install directory>/weblogic/server/lib/mbeantypes (<WebLogic Server Install directory>/wlsserver_10.3/server/lib/mbeantypes for 10.3.3) or the /domaindir/lib/mbeantypes directory, (where domaindir represents the location of your domain.)

-Dweblogic.alternateMbeanTypesDir
The location of the CuramMBean.jar

Figure 1. Example of Usage

build startserver -Dserver.name=CuramServer

Figure 2. Example of Usage with alternateMbeanTypesDir set

build startserver -Dserver.name=CuramServer -Dweblogic.alternateMbeanTypesDir=C:\MyWeblogicMBeansDir

Important: Before starting the application server for the first time you must have run the database target followed by the prepare.application.data target. Failing to run this sequence will likely result in transaction timeouts during first login and a failure to initialize and access the application. Whenever the database target is rerun (e.g. in a development environment) the prepare.application.data target must also be rerun.
