The first step in this task says "Prepare to install WebCenter", this simply means make sure you do the pre-install steps from the previous task.
- Download WebCenter Software
This one should be quite straight forward: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/downloads/index.html - Install WebCenter products
- Start the installer
- The installer requires the full path to the location of a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) on your system.
When you installed Oracle WebLogic Server, a JRE was installed on your system in thejdk160_24directory inside Oracle/Middleware home.
To get the installer to load I had to open a command prompt, navigate to the Disk1 folder of the WebCenter unzipped install folder and type the following command:
setup.exe -jreLoc C:/Oracle/Middleware/jdk160_24/jre
Running the installer and entering that path when prompted killed the installer.
On another machine where I had installed a 64bit JRE I was able to use the path when prompted.
- Install Software Updates
- I don't understand the point in this step. First you enter your account information, then search for updates to include. But if you are using the latest and greatest then there will never be any updates...this is a skip IMHO.
- Prerequisite Checks
Nothing to do here, just click Next assuming everything passes.
- Installation Location
Defaults are fine here
- Application Server
Nothing to do here, just click Next
- Installation Summary
Nothing to do here, just click Install and sit back and let it do its job!
- Installation Progress
Again, nothing to do here, just click the Next button after the install completes
- Installation Complete
...and done.
Who said this install would be hard?
