NOTE
If you are running WebLogic Server on Red Hat® Enterprise Linux Advanced Server 4.0, set the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL environment variable to 2.4.19 by using the export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 command. Then, run WebLogic Server from the same shell in which you set this environment variable.

Start WebLogic Server start-weblogic-server

  1. From a command prompt, go to [appserver root]/user_projects/domains/[appserverdomain].

  2. Enter the following command:

    • (Windows) startWebLogic.cmd
    • (Linux, UNIX) ./ startWebLogic.sh

Stop WebLogic Server stop-weblogic-server

  1. Start WebLogic Server administration console by typing https://[host name]:7001/console in the URL line of a web browser.
  2. Log in by typing the user name and password that was used when creating this WebLogic configuration, and then click Log In.
  3. Under Change Center, click Lock & Edit.
  4. Under Domain Structure, click Environment > Servers.
  5. Click AdminServer and, on the Settings for AdminServer pane, click the Control tab.
  6. Ensure that AdminServer is selected in the Server Status table and click Shutdown.
  7. Select When Work Completes to gracefully shut down the server or select Force Shutdown Now to stop the server immediately without completing ongoing tasks.

The WebLogic Server administration console is no longer available, and the command prompt that you ran the start command from is available.
