Hi All,
I have a script on Solaris (ksh) that executes "nohup startWeblogic.sh &" to
 start
WebLogic as a background process. After WebLogic has started and is listenin
g
on port 7001 I would like to continue. However, how do I figure out that WLS
 is
up and running. Currently I sleep for 2 minutes before continuing on. The sc
ript
looks as follows. Is there another alternative besides sleep

nohup startWebLogic.sh &
sleep 120

thanks in advance.

You can check the logfile ...

You could use the PING option in weblogic.Admin from a script

You can check to see if its related process is up or not:

ps -elf

if there is many of them you can specify it by user or ...

ps -elf | grep <adminusername>

I am using it and works fine ...

The most satisfactory method I have found is to run:
wget --spider -q http://localhost:7001/console

The --spider option simply prevents wget from actually downloading a
file and the -q option suppresses screen output.

You can download wget 1.9 from www.sunfreeware.com if you haven't
already got it.

It will return $? as 0 when the admin console is running and 1 if it
hasn't started yet.  Run this poll every 5 seconds in w while loop until
it exits with 0.
