Oracle SOA Suite 11g : Installing JDeveloper (part 1)

11/1/2011 3:54:19 PM

After installing the servers, you can install the JDeveloper IDE.

If you are installing JDeveloper on a machine that is not the same as your WebLogic server installation, you must have installed the JDK 6 update 11 first. See the pre-requisites section for download location.

1. Open a command window and enter (if you copy/paste, make sure there is no space after the = sign and eliminate trailing spaces):
```
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Oracle\Middleware\home_11gR1\jdk160_11 cd c:\stageSOA %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe -jar jdevstudio11111install.jar


					  
```
You will see a message that the JAR is extracting:
```
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe -jar jdevstudio11111install.jar Extracting 0%..........................


					  
```
When it reaches 100%, the installation wizard will open. This takes a few minutes.

If you see the splash screen briefly but then you do not see the extracting message and the installation wizard does not open, it's probably because the Java is the wrong version. Enter %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe version to see the version. It must be version 1.6_11.

Complete the installation wizard as follows.

Installing JDeveloper also installs an embedded WebLogic Server that you can use for testing Java applications. You will use this in one of the labs.
