Creating WebLogic Configurations Using the Configuration Wizard

# Starting the WebLogic Configuration Template Builder

This section describes how to invoke the WebLogic Configuration Template Builder. The Configuration Template Builder can be invoked only in graphical mode. Therefore, the console attached to the machine on which you are running the Configuration Template Builder must support a Java-based GUI. All Windows-based consoles support Java-based GUIs; only a subset of UNIX-based consoles support Java-based GUIs.

# Starting the Configuration Template Builder on Windows Platforms

To start the Configuration Template Builder on a Windows platform, do one of the following:

- From the Start Menu, choose:

Start—> Programs—> BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1—>Other Development Tools—>Configuration Template Builder.

- From a command prompt window:

1. Go to the `\common\bin` subdirectory of the product installation directory. For example:

>     cd c:\bea\weblogic81\common\bin

2. Enter the following command:

>     config_builder.cmd

# Starting the Configuration Template Builder on UNIX Platforms

1. Log in to the target system.
2. Open a command shell.
