WebLogic Start Script

This sample WebLogic start script has some functionality needed for a production environment

• Run WebLogic as background service.  WebLogic will continue to run even after the user logs off the terminal.
• Logs WebLogic system output and errors into a file.
• Rotate to a new log file at every startup.
• Display log output on-screen after startup.

    echo "Rotation log ${LOGFILE} to ${LOGFILE}_${APPENDIX}"
    mv ${LOGFILE} ${LOGFILE}_${APPENDIX}
fi

# Start up WebLogic as background service
