How to Access Oracle WebLogic Remote Console in WebLogic 14c

After upgrading from Oracle WebLogic Server 12c to 14c, one of the important administration changes is how we access the WebLogic management interface.

In WebLogic Server 14.1.2, the traditional WebLogic Administration Console (/console) is no longer available. WebLogic Remote Console can be used to administer the WebLogic domain instead.

1. Download WebLogic Remote Console---https://github.com/oracle/weblogic-remote-console/releases

Download the Remote Console from the official Oracle GitHub releases page:

Oracle WebLogic Remote Console Releases

Select the installer appropriate for your operating system and install it.

1. Start WebLogic Server

Before connecting Remote Console, make sure the WebLogic AdminServer is running.

For example:

AdminServer
|
└── Listen Address: 10.250.109.98
Listen Port: 7001

You can verify the server log for:

Server state changed to RUNNING

1. Launch WebLogic Remote Console

Open WebLogic Remote Console after installation.

Create a connection/provider for your WebLogic domain.

For a local environment, the management endpoint will typically be based on:

http://:7001

For example:

http://10.250.109.98:7001

Use the appropriate hostname/IP and port configured for your AdminServer.

1. Enter WebLogic Administrator Credentials

Provide the administrator username and password configured when the WebLogic domain was created.

Remote Console will connect to the AdminServer and retrieve the domain configuration.

1. Access the Domain

After successfully connecting, you can manage the WebLogic environment from Remote Console.

Typical administration areas include:

Domain
├── Servers
├── Deployments
├── Data Sources
├── JMS
├── Security
└── Other Domain Configuration

For application deployment, navigate to:

Edit Tree
↓
Deployments
↓
App Deployments

From there you can create and manage WAR/EAR deployments.

1. Remote Console vs WebLogic 12c Console

The administration workflow changes after the upgrade:

WebLogic 12c
|
└── http://hostname:7001/console
|
| Upgrade
↓
WebLogic 14c
|
└── WebLogic Remote Console

This is an important change to document when performing a 12c → 14c WebLogic upgrade.

Conclusion

When moving to WebLogic Server 14.1.2, administrators should plan for the change from the traditional Administration Console to WebLogic Remote Console.

The basic workflow is:

Download → Install → Start AdminServer → Connect Remote Console → Authenticate → Manage Domain
