I am about to try Rod's tricks to get WLS running on my Mac. I have however been able to use WebLogic Workshop with Mac OS X for quite some while using the Linux download. unzip the bin file you download, and then look in bea/AUTORUN.INF for the command to run. Pick any of them. Launch and install... You will need to "fix" your JDK under Mac OS X by doing the following commands: sudo su - mkdir -p /Library/Java/Home/jre/bin mkdir /Library/Java/Home/jre/lib cd /Library/Java/Home/jre/bin ln -s ../../bin/java cd ../lib ln -s ../../../Classes/classes.jar rt.jar These are necessary otherwise Workshop won't know that /Library/Java/Home is a valid java home. Good luck, Tarun

WebLogic Workshop on Mac OS X

I am running Workshop 8.1 SP2 on a PowerBook. I can set up a simple web service, but run into problems when I try to use a data base control (simple accept of a String, then feed into the Where clause).
I created the control, then generated the jws to test it. Creates and compiles OK. When it runs, I get the following message on the browser page:

Error: Validation class for this value was not provided or was not found.
    36     /**
    37      * @jc:sql statement="select CustName from Customer.FoodCustomer where CustCardNum = {custnum};"
    38      */
*** 39     String GetCustName(int custnum);
    40 }
File: MyDBControl.jcx (in /beaworkshop/user_projects/applications/HelloWorldApplication/FoodCustomerAccess/MyControls)
Suggestion: Verify that the validation class for this type is available.

Anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks,

Rich

Couple final notes... post Rod's instructions.

I installed Workshop with the generic jar file mentioned in the article. Works great. Make sure to launch Workshop.sh from X11! This allows the Run server functionality to correctly launch an Xterm.

Use the Linux installer afterward if you want the rest of the WebLogic platform installed (i.e. Portal, etc.) You can install these items in the same directory as the original bea home.
