After installing the Weblogic 8.1, you can start any one of the servers which comes pre-configured with the installed. If you want to develop your applications, you need to create your own domain.
The creation of domain depends on which kind of application you want to create. For example, if you want to create simple web application , you need to create a domain of type Weblogic Server.
A domain can be created using the Domain Configuration Wizard. If your using Windows, then it will be in the Start Menu.
After creatin the domain succesfully with JDBC connections, you can start the server using the startWeblogic.cmd script in the folder %BEA_HOME/user_projects/domains/mydomain/myserver
For developing use Ecllipse or some other IDE installed with the Weblogic plugin.
The application you develop can be either in the domain_home_directory/applications or any other folder. It need not be always with in weblogic installation.
