Weblogic WLST : Basics

Weblogic WLST : Basics of WLST ( Weblogic Scripting Tool )


First run setDomainEnv to set classpath

E:\Oracle\WLS1036\user_projects\domains\base_domain\bin>setDomainEnv.cmd

Now run below commands to connect with WLST prompt

E:\Oracle\WLS1036\user_projects\domains\base_domain>java weblogic.WLST
Exception in thread "Main Thread" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: weblogic/WLST

if you get above error then use -cp with java with full weblogic.jar in path

E:\Oracle\WLS1036\user_projects\domains\base_domain>java -cp E:\Oracle\WLS1036\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar weblogic.WLST

if you get above error then

1. change node manager username and password as you have mentioned in nmConnect command from admin console => admin console > domain > security > under advance option ( NodeManager Username & NodeManager Password )

2. if still getting error, the update nm_password.properties under domain/config/nodemanager as below

username=weblogic

password=webl0gic

and restart nodemanager

wls:/offline> nmConnect('weblogic','webl0gic','localhost','5556','base_domain','E:/Oracle/WLS1036/user_projects/domains/base_domain','plain')

If you want to run few command via script then add all lines in a .py file in sequence and execute as below


java -cp E:\Oracle\WLS1036\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar weblogic.WLST your_script.py

your_script.py as below to connect and start managed server MS1 with node manager

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
nmConnect('weblogic','webl0gic','localhost','5556','base_domain','E:/Oracle/WLS1036/user_projects/domains/base_domain','plain')
nmStart('MS1')
