Impossibility to exec startWebLogic.sh

[Le Fustec Sebastien]

After installing an evaluation version of WLAS 6.0 without errors on platform Linux
Red Hat, when we launch startWebLogic.sh , we obtain this message :

Starting WebLogic Server ....
***************************************************************************

We don't understand why this error as the config directory exist !!
Any help will be appreciated !!

I am running WLS 6.0 on Linux so I can probably help:

* On which directory are you running startWebLogic.sh? ( For example, to
startup the domain "mydomain", you should cd to config/mydomain, and run
startWebLogic.sh from there ).

* Under what user are you executing startWebLogic.sh. Are the
permissions of the files and directories set ok ( They should, but just
in case )?

Anyway, the exception reads like it cannot find config.xml, which is
located on each domain ( e.g.: config/mydomain and config/petstore )
