Description Petr Jiricka 2010-07-15 09:12:54 UTC

When using the zip file to install and register WebLogic, the WebLogic installation is in the 'wlserver' subdirectory of the unpacked archive. This may not be completely obvious to the users, and they may instead try to enter the unpacked zip root when registering WebLogic.

It would be useful if the wizard detected this situation and offered to amend it. E.g. when the user chooses the superdirectory using the Browse... button, then upon confirming the directory chooser, the IDE could display something like:

------
You selected C:\Program Files\wls1033 as the server installation directory, while the actual WebLogic installation directory is C:\Program Files\wls1033\wlserver. The IDE will use this location.
[Close]
------
