Time for action – installing JDeveloper and SOA Suite

Perform the following steps to download and install Oracle SOA Suite 12c with JDeveloper using the quick-start installation:

  1. Go to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/downloads/index.html and download the free SOA Suite 12c installation. You can choose between a Microsoft Windows 64 bit JVM installation and All Platforms Generic 64 bit JVM installation. Select SOA Suite Quick Start Installer of SOA Suite 12.1.3. You don't need any Additional Components for this book.
  2. Once downloaded, unzip the content into the same directory. Two .jar files will unzip, as shown in the following screenshot:

  4. The installation wizard will appear, guiding you through several steps. First, we need to specify the Central Inventory installation directory. Specify /home/oracle/oraInventory. We also need to specify Operating System Group. This is the group with write permissions to the inventory directory. Use the oracle group:

This directory must be empty, otherwise the wizard will give an error message. Use the default path, /home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_Home:

What just happened?

We installed SOA Suite 12c with bundled JDeveloper. Before we can start using SOA Suite, we need to create the domain and verify the installation.

Creating a default domain

SOA Suite runs on top of Oracle WebLogic Server. A domain is the basic administration unit for the WebLogic Server instances. The easiest way is to create the default domain within Integrated WebLogic Server, which is bundled with JDeveloper. We will use this option.

Alternatively, you can configure a standalone domain or a compact domain. For more information, refer to http://docs.oracle.com/middleware/1213/core/SOAQS/integrated.htm.
