2.8 Generating a Verbose Installation Log

If you launch the installation from the command line or from a script, you can specify the -log option to generate a verbose installation log. The installation log stores messages informational, warning, error, and fatal about events that occur during the installation process. This type of file can be especially useful for silent installations. To create a verbose log file during installation, include the -log=full_path_to_ log_file option in the command line. For example, to create a verbose log file for the WebLogic Server Package installer for Windows, enter: wls1034_win32.exe -log=C:\logs\server_install.log The path must specify a file. You cannot create a folder simply by including a name for it in a pathname; your path should specify only existing folders. If your path includes a nonexistent folder when you execute the command, the installation program does not create the log file. Coherence Examples Examples that demonstrate how to use the features of Coherence in all supported languages Java, .NET, and C++. The examples are organized collections of code that show how to use one or more features, and provide a single common way per language to build and run all examples. Source code for the examples is included. Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse A certified set of Eclipse plug-ins designed to help develop, deploy, and debug applications for WebLogic Server. It installs as a plug-in to your existing Eclipse, or will install Eclipse for you. It enhances Eclipse capabilities for Java, Java EE, Spring, ORM and Web services. Note: This product is available only if you use an installer for which the file name starts with oepe. See Appendix C, WebLogic Server Installers, for a list of available installers. Note: You may see a few warning messages in the installation log. However, unless a fatal irrecoverable error occurs, the installation program completes the installation successfully. The installation user interface indicates the success or failure of each installation attempt, and the installation log file includes an entry indicating that the installation was successful.
