I don't know how minimal it is, but you certainly can set up WL to run on localhost and deploy from the same machine. Have plenty of memory, and configure a bunch of it (both heap and permanent) for WebLogic. You don't copy files into WebLogic; it does that for you. Use its management screens to deploy your app from the WAR or EAR files, or point it to the build/deployment directory of your project. Don't mess with manual copying. > There is a blizzard of docs about Web Logic on Google.

I don't know about tutorials, but the WebLogic docs are rather comprehensive. Personally I find WebLogic and Glassfish to be rather similar to manage. For a tutorial, including an official one from Oracle, see http://lmgtfy.com/?q=WebLogic+tutorial -- Lew
