Hi, I’m on 6.4.0 version, I’ve installed with no pain all distribution wars on oracle weblogic 12c.  
I properly changed every configuration file (flowable-default.properties) inside each war, pointing to mysql as database and then i made some changes to redirection parameters, which their default values pointed to localhost on port 8080 instead of \<my\_remote\_ip\>:7001 (weblogic server default port).  
So database is generated and filled up correctly, tables which refer to user access are filled correctly.  
When I try to access to remote resource  
\<my\_remote\_server\_ip\>:7001/flowable-modeler  
I get a redirection like this:  
\<my\_remote\_server\_ip\>:7001/flowable-idm/#/login?redirectOnAuthSuccess=true&redirectUrl=http://\<my\_remote\_serve\>\_ip\>:7001/flowable-modeler  
with login prompt, then entering correct credentials server comes back again to login page.  
Have I mess something during configuration step? Or is simply uncompliant with oracle Weblogic Server?  
Any help would by grately appreciated.

Many thanks in advance!

Hi ,  
I am on 6.4.0 version & using Tomcat application server. Our services has a requirement moving to Oracle weblogic 12c platform. When the containers (flowable-admin,flowable-idm,flowable-modeler,flowable-rest & flowable-task) are deployed in weblogic (after changing to weblogic port in each properties files) I am running into below exception

org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Unable to start web server; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name ‘httpPutFormContentFilter’ defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/web/servlet/WebMvcAutoConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.boot.web.servlet.filter.OrderedHttpPutFormContentFilter]: **Factory method ‘httpPutFormContentFilter’ threw exception; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.JavaTimeModule]:** Constructor threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer.(Ljava/lang/Class;)V from class com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.JavaTimeModule

Any pointers on how to resolve this exception ?.

It seems like this is a general spring boot + weblogic issue. Stackoverflow gave me this: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38811072/spring-boot-rest-service-deploy-on-weblogic12c](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38811072/spring-boot-rest-service-deploy-on-weblogic12c), maybe you can try and see if it solves the problem?

Thanks Joram that really helped, Exception cleared & admin /modeler/task pages are Up after adding weblogic.xml in web-inf folder

Hi,

After a few trial & error i could find the list of packages / classes that are in conflict with weblogic libraries & jars. Solution to overcome these exceptions would to explicitly mention weblogic class cloader where the classes should be loaded from in wls:prefer-application-packages ( weblogic.xml)

com.fasterxml.jackson.\*  
com.google.common.\*  
com.google.thirdparty.\*  
javax.annotation.\*  
javax.annotation.security.\*  
javax.annotation.sql.\*  
org.aopalliance.aop.\*  
org.aopalliance.intercept.\*  
org.apache.commons.\*  
org.apache.xerces.\*  
org.joda.time.\*  
org.slf4j.\*  
org.slf4j.helpers.\*  
org.slf4j.impl.\*  
org.slf4j.spi.\*  
org.w3c.dom.ls.DOMImplementationLS  
org.w3c.dom.ls.LSLoadEvent  
org.w3c.dom.ls.LSProgressEvent  
org.w3c.dom.ranges.DocumentRange  
org.w3c.dom.ranges.Range  
org.w3c.dom.ranges.RangeException

But my login works only for flowable-idm , if i use flowable-admin,modelere or task i get directed back to idm login page

Similar redirect problems has been reported like below

> [@After auth success, app redirects back to login page](https://forum.flowable.org/t/after-auth-success-app-redirects-back-to-login-page/2136):
>
> I’m running Flowable 6.3.1 IDM and Modeler in a Docker container. The Dockerfile is simply this: FROM tomcat:8.0.20-jre8 COPY src/main/resources/flowable-ui-idm-app.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/flowable-idm.war COPY src/main/resources/flowable-ui-modeler-app.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/flowable-modeler.war And I run it like this: docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -e FLOWABLE\_COMMON\_APP\_IDM\_URL=http://localhost:8080/flowable-idm -e FLOWABLE\_COMMON\_APP\_IDM\_REDIRECT\_URL=http://localhost:8080/flowabl…

I coundn’t find the solution yet for redirect , could you please guide on how to fix it

Hi !

I am also facing same issue while deploying our custom flowable Application in Weblogic 12c.

I’m using **Flowable 6.4.0 IDM** and Modeler in a **Weblogic server**

But after I login successfully with admin/test, it sends me back to: [http://localhost:8080/flowable-idm/#/login?redirectOnAuthSuccess=true&redirectUrl=http:%2F%2Flocalhost:8080%2Fflowable-modeler%2F](http://localhost:8080/flowable-idm/#/login?redirectOnAuthSuccess=true&redirectUrl=http:%2F%2Flocalhost:8080%2Fflowable-modeler%2F)

This is using a fresh flowable database on oracle database. Is weblogic not supported for flowable ?

i have gone through with below video that describes Flowable Integration with Weblogic

Could you please help me to solve this issue.

Any suggestion/feedback will be highly appreciated.

Let me know, if any more information required to help with this issue.

Regards  
Ashok

I was running into same issue where every time I logged on it kept sending me back to login when deployed to weblogic (tomcat worked fine:. Spent good amount of time trying to debug and figured I’d share what I did to fix since I had trouble finding any help.I needed the following added to weblogics config.xml security-configuration:

```
`<enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>false</enforce-valid-basic-auth-credentials>`

```

Without it flowables http basic authentication is blocked
