  • Edit setDomainEnv.sh and search for the below :-

if [ “${DEBUG_PORT}” = “” ] ; then
        DEBUG_PORT=”8453″
        export DEBUG_PORT
fi

if [ “${SERVER_NAME}” = “” ] ; then
        SERVER_NAME=”AdminServer”
        export SERVER_NAME
fi

if [ “${SERVER_NAME}” = “soa_server1” ] ; then
   DEBUG_PORT=”7453″
   export DEBUG_PORT
fi

if [ “${SERVER_NAME}” = “osb_server1” ] ; then
