Installing and Configuring Oracle

WebCenter Spaces

Purpose

This tutorial covers installing and configuring Oracle WebCenter Spaces along with the bundledOracle WebCenter Services and the optional Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM) in aLinux environment.

Time to Complete

Approximately 1.5 hours

Overview

WebCenter Spaces is an online environment that brings together an array of social networking,collaboration, and personal productivity tools. WebCenter Services is a complete set ofcomplementary services that enables you to embed Web 2.0-style communication andcollaboration services directly into WebCenter Spaces. The component applications for bothWebCenter Spaces and WebCenter Services run on Oracle WebLogic Server and store theirmetadata in an Oracle database. UCM is an enterprise level content management platform.

Scenario

You are an Administrator who needs to install WebCenter Spaces in a Linux environment. Youwill run the Repository Creation Utility (RCU) to create the required schemas in the database.Then you will create the necessary files in the file system by running the WebCenter Installer.You will install WebCenter Spaces, WebCenter Services, as well as the optional UCM. Next youwill run the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Wizard to create the WebCenter domain.WebCenter Spaces and WebCenter services are deployed to servers in this domain. In thisscenario, you create a single node WebCenter domain and everything is installed on onemachine. This would not be typical for a production installation but can work well for adevelopment or test environment. In this scenario you are setting up for a developmentenvironment but apart from the single node domain and the startup mode of the WebLogic

Server, the steps are essentially the same as for a production environment.

Note: The screenshots will not reflect the specific environment you are using. Also productinstaller directories, installation directories, and the location ofMiddleware_Home may bedifferent from the locations on your system.

Software and Hardware Requirements

The following is a list of software requirements:

Oracle Database 10gor 11gmust be installed Oracle WebLogic Server 11gmust be installed An HTTP server must be installed (required for UCM)

Your system environment must meet the general installation requirements forOracleFusion Middleware, Oracle WebCenter, and RCU

Prerequisites

Before starting this tutorial, you should:

1. Have access to the WebCenter installer

3. Have access to the Repository Creation Utility (RCU)

4.Start your Oracle database

5. Know the location of your Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

6. Know the location of yourMiddleware_Home directory (the directory that contains yourWebLogic_Server_Home directory)

8. Have some familiarity with basic product installs

Creating WebCenter Schemas

To create the WebCenter database schemas using RCU, perform the following steps:

Installing WebCenter Spaces

The WebCenter installer installs the files for WebCenter Spaces, WebCenter Services, andUCM. To install WebCenter Spaces, WebCenter Services, and UCM, perform the followingsteps:

1. Navigate to the staged location for the WebCenter installer and start the installer:

$ cd /stage$ ./runInstaller -jreLoc /u01/app/oracle/product/fmwhome/jdk160_14_R27.6.5-32

The installer requires the location of a JRE. When you installed Oracle WebLogic Server, a JREwas installed on your system. You can use this location to start the installer. You must supply anabsolute path. The JRE location in this path is the Sun JRE. The Sun JRE is recommended whenyou are installing in a development environment. If you are installing in a production

environment, use the JRockit JRE.

2. In the Welcome window, click Next.

3. The installer runs various tests to check system prerequisites. When it is done, click Next in thePrerequisite Checks window.

1. In a new window, navigate to the Oracle_Common_Home/common/bin directory and set theNode Manager properties:

$ cd /u01/app/oracle/product/fmwhome/oracle_common/common/bin$ ./setNMProps.sh

You see the message Appending required nodemanager .properties.

Note: If you are installing and older 11g version of WebCenter Spaces that does not includePatch Set 1 then the Node Manager file is located in WebCenter_Oracle_Home/common/bin.

2. Navigate to the WebLogic_Server_Home/server/bin directory and start the Node Manager:

$ cd /u01/app/oracle/product/fmwhome/wlserver_10.3/server/bin$ ./startNodeManager.sh

Wait until y ou see the message INFO: Secure socket listener started on port 5,556. Do not close

this window as it will shut down the Node Manager.

Starting the Managed Servers

1. Start the WebLogic Server Administration Console by opening a web browser and enteringhttp://:7001/console. For Username enter weblogic, for Password enterwelcome1 then click Log In.

Note: You can also start the managed servers from the commandline usingDOMAIN_DIR/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh.

Before you see the login window a message briefly appears indicating the application is beingdeployed for the console.

Verifying the Installation

To verify that WebCenter Spaces has been installed correctly, perform the following steps:

1. Start WebCenter Spaces by opening a web browser and enteringhttp://:8888/webcenter. For User Name enter weblogic, for Password enterwelcome1 then click Login.


36/38


2. You are now logged into WebCenter Spaces. This confirms that it has been installed correctly.


37/38


Note: The messages on the right of the window regarding the Worklist and Documents servicesbeing unavailable are because they are not configured yet. At this point WebCenter Spaces isinstalled and up and running but your work is not complete. You still need to configure theservices you wish to use in WebCenter Spaces, for example, the Documents service (includingUCM), the Worklist service, and the Discussions service. You may also wish to register portletproducers. See theOracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebCenter 11gandtheOracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenterfor moreinformation.
