WebLogic Server 10.3.6 for Mac OSX

If you are trying to install WLS 10.3.6 in OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 then a couple error you may face:

1) Download generic installer; if you choose cocoa mac installer, then you'll get:

(or using system property: -Dos.name=unix  )
(or -Dos.name="OS X")
Exception in thread "chmodFile" java.lang.Error: unix is not a supported OS platform.

2) If you receive the message "Insufficient disk space!" , although you know you have enough space, the use the following parameter:

 i.e.:

java -Dspace.detection=false -Xmx1024m -jar wls1036_generic.jar


(also, a small installer window could appear, and it is from the same reason).

  3. To resolve the issue, use

    java -Dos.name="OS X" -Dspace.detection=false -jar wls1036_generic.jar
