Installing Liferay Portal on WebLogic https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=119785294&threadId=121823635 2026-04-04T00:58:05Z 2026-04-04T00:58:05Z Olaf Kock https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=121825235 2023-05-31T10:48:25Z 2023-05-30T05:25:43Z

<p>Liferay DXP is the commercial version and runs on Weblogic. Liferay Portal is the Open Source Community Edition, and does not run on Weblogic.</p> <p>See the <a href="https://liferay.dev/blogs/-/blogs/liferay-portal-7-4-ga78-and-liferay-commerce-4-0-ga78-release">compatibility matrix</a> - Note: I'm linking the latest 7.4 release here: You're running an Enterprise Appserver, which implies that you might expect it to be updated - an aspect that should apply to the software you're running on it as well. The 7.2 compatibility matrix is similar (might differ in the version numbers, but not much in the overall supported underlying infrastructure software) </p>

<p>Hi all.</p> <p>I'm trying to carry out an installation process of Liferay Portal (7.2.1-ga2) on a WebLogic server (12.2.1.3), and I'm doing it according to the steps describen in the Liferay's official documentation (Installing Liferay DXP on WebLogic 12c R2).</p> <p>On the WebLogic server, I've created a Managed Server (which is said to be a best practice when installing Liferay Portal on a WebLogic server), and I've created a new deployment, which is linked to the Liferay Portal related .war file (previously modified to include the 'portal-ext.properties' file containing the 'liferay.home' property accordingly defined).</p> <p>The process of installation works as expected, and after starting the Managed Server previously created, I achieve to do a first installation, and create a first user. The weird thing is that every time I shut down the Managed Server and start it again, a new process of installation gets started, which is an undesired behaviour because that initial installation process of Liferay Portal  has already been carried out. What I'd expect when starting the Managed Server is that the Liferay Portal login window to be displayed so that I could start doing my first configurations.</p> <p>I guess I'm doind something wrong but I don't know what it could be. I guess this undeseried behaviour relies on the way WebLogic server works but I have no experience with WebLogic.</p> <p>I'd really appreciate if someone could explain to me what I'm doing wrong and how could avoid the process of installation to appear every time I start the Managed Server.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
