WLS Console Timeout

The WebLogic console timeout is a great feature for security, yet a horrible feature during development. Logging in over and over again gets to be annoying. This is very easy to change, but I would never do this on a production system!

WebLogic Silent Install 11.1.1.4 (WLS 10.3.4) - Linux

!/bin/bash
./wls1034_oepe111161_linux32.bin -mode=silent -silent_xml=./silent.xml

Note about Oracle_Home: Since all products are moving to a common WLS base, I simply use the WLS version as my Oracle Home. In this case wls10.3.4. Also, I keep my user_projects outside my Oracle_Home directory to keep things clean. I typically use /opt/app/user_projects or a variation of that.
